Prevention automatic download of Cache Files

When Red Orchestra was released in 2011, RAM for computers was still expensive, had only a few megabytes of capacity, and SSDs didn't exist yet. Therefore, games developed at that time were designed to store as little game data as possible in RAM and on the hard drives used back then. All of that has changed drastically; RAM and SSDs now have high storage capacities. In Red Orchestra 1, you can now adjust various settings that were useful back then but are no longer relevant today.
Here we go - to prevent the cyclic automatic download of all Cache Files you've downloaded already, please do the step as follows:

1. Open your "redorchestra.ini" file, you will find it normally on the following path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Red Orchestra\System
2. Search for section [Core.System] . Edit the entry for PurgeCacheDays=30 to PurgeCacheDays=0
3. That's all. Don't forget to save the file.. 
   

This setting will prevent the cyclic download of all Cache Files you've stored already, except the case, that a file has been changed/modified. These files will still downloaded if necessary.

! Don't worry, you cannot "destroy" something. If your Red Orchestra game will not start anymore after the changes you made, because you've done something wrong possibly, you just need to delete your "redorchestra.ini" before you start the game again. Of course you must recover all your game-settings after this action in consequence, because you reset the game to factory values with this action.
P.S. ..thats why I recommend to create a copy of your original "redorchestra.ini" file (name it "redorchestra.ini.backup" p.e..) before you change something on the original file.
 

Hi Swiss. Changed mine to 150 . Should do the trick.

Hi Lazlo. Thank you for your reply.. appreciate that, you're the first of our community is active in this new Forum.. cool.. 
If I understand correctly, you've set the value to "150" => meaning RO will wait 150 days before downloading Cache-Files that have already been downloaded. You can certainly do it that way, and it will work.
However, I'd like to point out that with this solution, a larger number of files will always be downloaded again, since it waits 150 days before synchronizing all cache files. Setting it to 0 days, on the other hand, will still result in files being downloaded occasionally, but since only changed or new files are affected, the necessary download is usually very small or very fast. In conclusion, both solutions work.
