How To Use FastDL On Your Fistful of Frags Server

At Game Host Bros, your Fistful of Frags server comes with FastDL, so players download your custom maps and content over the web instead of slowly through the game server. Everything is automatic: just upload your custom maps.

How Does FastDL Work?

  • Every map, material, model, sound, particle and resource file in your server's fof folder is synced to the fastdl folder when your server starts.
  • Your server tells players where to download from by itself. A player who set the game to skip custom downloads can type cl_downloadfilter all in the console to turn them back on.
  • Files you delete from your server are removed from FastDL on the next start.

Using Your Own Download Server

If you already host your files elsewhere, you can use that instead. See Download Redirect.
