When a player in your server tries to launch a game that they don’t have, they are given the option to download it if the item has a URL listed for it. Yesterday I added in the ability for items to list multiple download URLs. Now you can give more download options to the people as far s where they are going to acquire the missing media from. For example, if a player doesn’t already have the game “Dead Island”, the item could list URLs to get the game from the Steam Store as well as from Direct2Drive. For free downloads, listing multiple URLs could be used to offer different download locations of the game or different versions of the game.
Download URLs can be easily added through the HTML-powered UI by clicking on the small “+” icon next to “Download URLs”. Any field of a download URL entry can be edited by clicking on the small wrench icon next to the field. Any download URL entry can be removed completely by clicking on the associated X on the right side of the table.
Below is a screenshot of how this looks in the UI:
A similar method will be used to allow for multiple entries of other key fields, such as “rompaths” to allow apps to scan multiple locations when detecting files.
