People can't go on my netgames/server with a WAD on it.

People can't go on my netgames/server with a WAD on it.
My brother even tried and it says "You need this file: untitled2.wad."
I wonder why he can't just download the file like I can.

1)You might have downloading off.
2)You need to make the maxsend bigger.

3) SRB2 might be loading untitled2.wad automatically without you knowing, check your autoexec.cfg or your batch file if you are running SRB2 from one.

4) Or it's just a simple case of your friends not owning the wad.

It doesn't have to be untitled2.wad. It can be any WAD.
For example: mt_srb2city.wad, or SA2shadow-v3.wad.

Sky Ninja, what's Maxsend?

P.S: Nice Avatar, the giant pie is cool. :)

Maxsend is a command that sets how many KB's other people can download from the server. If he doesen't have the wad, frigure out how big the wad is and put in the console:

Maxsend ####

# representing the KB. If you don't know or can't find out put

Maxsend 9999

and it'll go to the highest number possible. Downloading will cause lag if the size is too large.
