Hypersonic's Unreal Server - UT Weapons

I just want to say that it is impossible to connect to this server because it has a huge file to download (UTWeapons2 14.5 MB) which takes longer to download then the maptimer of 15 minutes.
In other words, the server continues to change map before the download has any chance to finish.
So, if you are the admin and wonder why nobody every plays at your server: this may just be the reason. ;-)

Solution: Use http redirect (which is fastest solution in any case) or update to 227g once done, since the download stall bug is fixed there

Oh, and it is not very helpful either to not have any admin e-mailadress into the server's properties. So it is hard to contact the admin.

if you can't use http redirect or don't want to use 227 for any reason- increasing the max tickrate can help to reduce the download stalls to a minimum if set >=60 (nowadays machines and connections should be able to handle it without bad side effects)

@Smirftsch: FYI: I'm not the admin. I'm just a client connecting to that server. I just hope the admin reads this some way to fix this stupid issue. And your information would be a solution indeed.

I just thought some hints would be helpful.
