server only files - > had to explain to them about the pain it is to first upload the files when we all share them from a fast host. But after that patching these "shared" servers are a pain. I think they started to get what I was bitching about, however their new way of low or no load times between maps may hinder the server only files but they are looking into it. <BR>

There is talk of a Linux version, but who knows when it will be released. IW is aware that the server admins need the Linux patch asap, but there has been no official announcement. <BR>
