When connecting to a server utilizing sv_downloadurl with the Linux client, all files are downloaded from the game server (i.e., the sv_downloadurl value seems to be ignored). I checked the access log on my HTTP server and no request for these files is made by the Linux client. I tested the same server with the Windows client (running in Wine) and the files were properly downloaded from the HTTP server.

Edit: This applies to Counter-Strike. I forgot to mention that when first reporting this issue.

(Xubuntu) Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS

Strange. What app was this for?

It works for me on TF2, what game is it not working on?

Thanks, MrSchism and atomic-penguin. I can't believe I forgot to mention which app this issue is for. I edited the original post.

Confirming. Tested many servers with configured sv_downloadurl and the game seems to ignore it.
