Bzip with the fast downloads?

[Ben-EdgeGameServers.com]

Hi ,

Lately I have been getting lot's of Tickets saying

"Fast DL is not worth it when files are not bzipped"

And it's kind of true.. Is it being implanted yet? If not I think it should be added and implanted As soon as possible

Good luck and welcome to the club.

This feature would be very helpful, a lot of clients ask us for this.

[CloudCUBE]

Perhaps use custom scripting with a custom action or icon for now.

[Bubka3]

Why should we use a custom action or icon for something that should of been there from the start? It's OK. Garbage like a support system is more important apparently.

[CloudCUBE]

If Luis adds an event such as 'Before FASTDL Sync' you can .bzip all .bsp file extensions before the sync is executed.

 

Which would solve your issue.

[Bubka3]

Or you could just add a bz2 all bsps in map folder and the sync will just pick it up.

[Mark9000]

bubka3 that ant a bad idea actually. Granted coming from a client standpoint I'd be pretty aggravated/pissed that I'd have to bz2 my own files, but it shouldn't be to hard to tell TCAdmin to only move/sync the .bz2 extensions only though. Hopefully if we keep enough pressure on this issue it will be implemented soon.

[Bubka3]

Maybe if TCAdmin would stop coding support tickets and news (both of which are included in any modern billing system) we could get this...

Maybe in the meantime you could

Perhaps use custom scripting with a custom action or icon for now.

 

Problem solved temporarily and you'd learn something valuable...

Sooo Luis , Whats up?

[Bubka3]

I'll do it for Luis:

<insert other feature here> is why I can't do this.

[LFA]

I'm working on it!

[Bubka3]

I'm working on it!

 

HES WORKING ON IT. PREPARE TO SAVE YOUR BANDWIDTH.

[ECF]

Don't make him mad

[Bubka3]

Nah, but seriously the spike in my bandwidth graph from using uncompressed files is quite pricy, even with a good rate of $12/TB.

Understood. But please remember the number of new feature requests that we get as well as the number of bug fixes that require priority attention since they need to tracked down and fixed before any new features.

LET'S GET THE PARTY STARTED!!!!!! :D:D

My only gripe if you will is that time was spent on a support ticket system. Walk in my thoughts for a second.

They are going to work on a support ticket system, for a tool designed for GSPs, and said GSPs having a billing system with tickets?

That's we're I'm coming from. Hope you understand.

[ECF]

I can understand your point of view. However we do have clients that do use the support system and it was requested quite a while ago.

[Bubka3]

True, but one involves actual money, while the other can be fixed with something like osTickets. However, it was already coded, and Luis is now working on this, so the discussion is point less. Thanks for the heads up!
