ShaiHulud explained it already... and Chamberly explained it more "user-friendly".ShaiHulud wrote:Hey there, welcome to the forum. Just to clarify, this thread wasn't about a free copy of the game UT, but rather about a free "redirect server" for administrators running UT servers. File downloads rates from a UT server are extremely limited. A redirect server takes over this responsibility and allows UT server visitors to download files (maps, textures, and so on) at a much more reasonable speed. Normally there's a cost involved in this - a redirect server is essentially a web server - so you would be paying web hosting rates to get one running. The UnrealKillers clan shared their redirect server address so that other server administrators could use it as their redirect server at no cost.
ut-files.com has taken over that responsibility again now
I think it's clear now.
