BlackIntel have a working alpha version but some problems still need to be worked out.

If black intel needs needs ftp space they can forward mapdl.blackintel.org to my nameservers and i'll give them a control panel so they can store maps there. I have no problem using one of my servers for the cause. 600-800 people playing renegade these days....and only a select few play fan map servers. I can maybe believe that it will probably be a max bw usage of around 1500-2500gb on a good month. But i'm sure more than me are willing to donate their disk space and BW for this cause...

Besides that, it seems a server AND client modification, which makesi t pretty useless as most people who would have downloaded RR will also download maps, it's the people playing vanilla renegade that u need to get the maps to mostly.

I hope to get it implemented for the next RR release.

You cannot implement an automatic downloader without modifying the client.
And I'm not talking about pure map downloading, but resource downloading. The client downloads any resources (scripts.dll excluded) which were added or modified by the, allowing much more server-side modifications.
