Author Topic: V18 high speed download clarifications? (Read 1131 times)

I'd like to know some things about this new high speed download system...

If you have a private add-on and start a server, does it get uploaded to the "master server" for high speed downloads?
How does an add-on posted in the add-ons section get to the "high speed download server"?

Thanks

Only the art of the add-ons will be avaiable for download by clients.

Yes, the whole ZIP is, but only the art is downloadable.

So if I start a server with a custom AI, it gets uploaded to the master server, and when people join my server. They get the high speed download?

AI =/= art
unless there's a unique model you made just for the AI, then they'd get the model.

clients still download the exact same things they did before v18, it's just faster.

Not yet. Planned feature.

Manually, till the automatic thing is added.
