Hey guys, i'm in the middle of coding the new file server. Anyhow I wanna know all filetypes you will be uploading. Heres the list i have so far:

  • Models
  • Maps
  • SDK
  • Mods
  • Patches
  • Wallpaper
  • Videos
  • Demos
  • Misc

What other ones can you think of? Note. any unrelated posts will be deleted.

Music. You can't forget composed pieces of work :D

Oh, I suppose there could also be Website Kits, Media Kits, and other packs of files, but I suppose that would fit more under Misc.

Ahh, yeah. And maybe some random downloads like aim, msn, xfire, or mIRC.

Doesn't that fit under Videos?

Honestly, a few of these suggestions are unnecessary downloads on the server that only serve to rack up the costs, with all due respect (like Pancit's random download idea). I suppose all of this can fit under Misc., since they're not major downloads.

But maybe I'm just being critical.

Yeah, I'm sorry. I didn't see Misc there. Or else I wouldn't of posted the suggestion.

Will there be subcats? Or actually I assume you can sort them by related game?

I think it should be classified like this:

>Mod Downloads
>>>Complete Installers
>>>Patches

>Other Downloads
>>>Resources
>>>>>>Models
>>>>>>Maps
>>>>>>scripts
>>>>>>Textures
>>>>>>Skins
>>>Misc
>>>>>>Whatever doesn't fit above..

he said filetypes, doesnt each game use different filetypes for certain things. HL uses mdl and a game might use somethng else for a model. dont you have to account for that?
