AW needs the ability to let you use off-world object paths and use objects
from that object path if you have the proper password that you will have to
enter in a passworded window that comes up, just so you don't need to gather
millions of objects for a small project

So it would be accessing multiple OPs at once? Talk about bog down, having
to connection to an OP for just one object..madness.

It is quite easy for a server to redirect requests for content to
an entirely diffent server.

It works fine, and it does not 'bog everything down'.

The only people who complain are the people who complain about
eveything anyway, and they only complain when you tell them what
is happening.

If you don't tell them, they don't even notice a difference.

Implementing different passwords for different zip files is another
thing entirely. *That* would be very difficult to do.in the current
framework.

Might be possible with apache + .htaccess (mod_rewrite)
if it is not a ZIP but a site password that you can send
in name:password at path form.

I haven't tried that though.

Slight security danger in having the user:password at server flying across the net in plaintext with this method... it's exposed [to builders] as soon as someone makes a typo in the object model field (or during "create texture").
