I made a Jailbreak map and want it only to be played on my server, meaning if someone else tried to put it on their server it wouldn't work. does anyone know how to do that?

In what way "wouldn't it work"? Do you get any error-message?

(Remember, if a map contains custom content(e.g. textures, sounds etc) those need to be on the server too...)

No, he wants the server to be playable on his server only. The problem with this is when a person plays a map they have to download it. Once they've downloaded it, they kinda have it.

Where did you see it? I still stand by my point that as soon as you give the player the file they can copy it, keep it, do whatever... And I really don't think there's a way to play a map without having downloaded it. CounterStrike downloads the map, saves it, loads it, renders it, closes it, doesn't delete it.

im not sure, but i've heard that you have to add a file to the map that only you have so it would only be playable on your server with that file.

If the map's only playable with that file then surely the user needs it as well? I'm not sure I follow you...
