Can we compact model files for RedirectDownload()? - JR_Junior - 13.12.2017

Hello!
I would like to know if it is possible to compress (zip or similar) the files on the host to use in RedirectDownload ().
Thank you!

- Adds support for URL redirection for model/texture downloads, which means you can host downloads on a web server instead of sending them through the SA-MP server. Client URL downloading is done via libcurl version 7.57.0 compiled with support for http, https, and zlib (gzip).

For example on apache2 webserver you can enable/install mod_deflate to get the files compressed automatically before they are downloaded

Sorry, but on my host I have no option to make certain files be compressed before download.
Can you explain how to do?

EDIT: I found a tutorial on internet. Thank you!

Add this to the mod_deflate config:

Code:

AddOutputFilter DEFLATE dff txd

That way .dff and .txd files will get compressed upon download.

I have a doubt. In case when redirecting the download, should I use http or https (or another protocol)?

Does SA-MP use http 1.1 or 1.0?

I'd like to know for nginx gzip compression settings as I'm not an apache user.

If you can use https, use that one, since https is faster then http (1.x, not sure with 2.0, but most servers still use 1.x).

I'm not having success activating my compression on my Apache server. Can this value be set by .htaccess?

First result should answer your question: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=mod_deflate+htaccess

I'm using the optmization option in cpanel and is working fine with all files. Thanks!

It is taking the same time to download the files. Is this code not working or am I doing it wrong?

PHP Code:



<IfModule mod_deflate.c>

    AddOutputFilter DEFLATE dff txd

    SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

    <IfModule mod_setenvif.c>

        # Netscape 4.x has some problems...

        BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html


        # Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems

        BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip


        # MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine

        # BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html


        # NOTE: Due to a bug in mod_setenvif up to Apache 2.0.48

        # the above regex won't work. You can use the following

        # workaround to get the desired effect:

        BrowserMatch \bMSI[E] !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html


        # Don't compress images

        SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI .(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary

    </IfModule>


    <IfModule mod_headers.c>

        # Make sure proxies don't deliver the wrong content

        Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary

    </IfModule>

</IfModule>
