Question
I'm not sure if anybody else has had this issue, but I've noticed lately that I seem to be having problems downloading custom maps while TF2 is loading.
Case in point, yesterday I tried to join a server that ran ctf_mach4, and when it went to download the map (straight .bsp file) it hung at 0%.
After a few minutes of non-activity, I went back to the server listing and saw that the server definitely was still active and playing that map, so it wasn't a case of the server changing.
Any thoughts? I've also had this happen before, but never thought to document it. I'm sure I can download it offline and just stick it in my steam directory, but I was curious if anybody else has had this problem.
Answer
This entirely depends on the server and its settings. Try joining another server running the same map.
You can read more on how TF2 handles custom maps here and here.
