Adding CoD4 Maps to your Server
How to put Map's into your Servers.
If any of this information is incorrect PLEASE contact me and I will update it right away. :) Thank you.
Info
1. You server will become unranked if a custom map is put on.
2. You will have to be running some kind of mod to make this work.
3. RCD=Remote Control Desktop
*Note* If you want it to go 500 times faster than hosting on your server, host it on a website.
Steps
Basic Part 1
1. Download the map you would like.
The map will come in a zip with two .ff files in it.
2. Open your RCD or FTP Program and log into your server.
3. Make a new folder called "usermaps" inside of your directory.
Do not put into "main" folder, put it beside the "main" folder.
4. Make another folder with the name of the map that you have downloaded.
ex. Your map is "mp_subway_beta.ff", name the folder "mp_subway_beta".
5. Put both of your .ff files into that folder.
6. Add the map to your map rotation.
ex. "gametype war map mp_subway_beta"
Basic Part 2 (skip if the map has no .iwd files)
The iwd file should contain nothing more than the images file and it should reside in the map folder.
Advanced Website Fast Download
1. Make a folder with any name.
ex. cod4_fast_dl
2. Make a new folder called "usermaps" inside of the folder that you have just made.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/usermaps
3. Make another folder with the name of the map that you have downloaded.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/usermaps/mp_aim
4. Put both of your .ff files into that folder.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/usermaps/mp_aim/mp_aim.ff
5. Make another folder called mods.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods
6. Add your mods folder that is on your server, with the same files in it as on your server.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15/server.cfg
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15/maprotation.cfg
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15/...
7. Also, add your zzz_mp_nameofmap to this folder also.
8. Add the lines below to your server.cfg
set sv_allowdownload "1"
seta sv_wwwDownload "1"
seta sv_wwwBaseURL "https://website_here.com/cod4_fast_dl"
seta sv_wwwDlDisconnected "0"
Advanced Server Fast Download (will not work if you are not running a dedicated server)
1. Make a folder with any name.
ex. cod4_fast_dl
2. Make a new folder called "usermaps" inside of the folder that you have just made.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/usermaps
3. Make another folder with the name of the map that you have downloaded.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/usermaps/mp_aim
4. Put both of your .ff files into that folder.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/usermaps/mp_aim/mp_aim.ff
5. Make another folder called mods.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods
6. Add your mods folder that is on your server, with the same files in it as on your server.
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15/server.cfg
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15/maprotation.cfg
ex. cod4_fast_dl/mods/acemod15/...
7. Also, add your zzz_mp_nameofmap to this folder also.
5. If you are in RCD, go here to learn about Virtual Directory and IIS below:

6. Set up a virtual directory so your server can download the maps off of your server.
7. Add the lines below to your server.cfg
set sv_allowdownload "1"
seta sv_wwwDownload "1"
seta sv_wwwBaseURL "https://server_ip_here.com/cod4_fast_dl"
seta sv_wwwDlDisconnected "0"
*Note* It will be 500 times faster, if it is hosted on a website.
