I could probably run a tracker/10mbit seeder on d393 instead of providing http services on it. It basically has to be one or the other. If you want torrents on that one then I will work on providing them for the next release past 1.2.

If that is the case then I would recommend to stick to HTTP, since several ISPs do throttle torrents, or users simply can't get them to work properly while HTTP will likely work fine. If there would always be a couple 500KB/s mirrors available then it would be a good idea to run a tracker and encourage that as the main method for distribution but not if it is the main method with next to no alternatives

Actually, I think I have solved this problem. Torrents can use multiple "Web Seeds". You define one or more servers that have the full file in the torrent and that way I can distribute the files from my HTTPd's without having to run a torrent client on the server itself. This enables people to grab the file and distribute via torrent AND download direct. But you are right, if we don't convince people to use torrents over HTTP then the whole system is useless.

Alright folks, here are the torrent files for 1.2. They tap three distribution servers for a total of over 20mbit. They also allow people to grab the files from other people like normal. We don't have seeders at this point, so give the files a shot and seed if you can.

THX dude! 500 kB/s and was ready in just 1 hour without any problems :3

I want to thank you guys very much for picking me as a beta tester! It WAS a surprise for sure

Added a new Full install file. It automatically detects where your Steam folder is, uses new software, and adds a new map (ctf_dorsa - created by Surfur!). This map is still a work in progress but it'd be great to play!

Sweet i cant wait to test out that map, hopefully i stop getting that weird error when i try to connect to a server that says i need to re-login to my steam account to play. but re-loging in does nothing..

Make sure hl2.exe is not still running in the background. Open task manager and delete it if it is. Common STEAM bug.

Thanks for the torrent!
