C++ code: (I can't remember if the progress bar thing worked properly or not)
Server code (written in PHP
):This is a basic example that will help you get started. Although if you want to modify this any further you probably want to do some research on socket programming before messing with this.

Figured someone here could find it useful for something. You need to add this code to your sprx project, and then create a listening server in whatever language you want to serve the file.

Sorry, ignore what I said about the response header/body. For some reason when I replied earlier I was thinking this was using HTTP requests. The buffer size should be a length of bytes you're comfortable storing at one time. Setting it to 1024 (or 1 KB) should be sufficient. That basically means the socket will read 1 KB of your file each time and store that in the file.
Mmmh, when i put the function in prx.cpp in int main() like this > You must login or register to view this content.
I launch my game, and the game freez (i lokked the GTA;sprx placed in tmp, and it's blank. 0Ko). Where i must put the function DownloadFile in my sprx ?

Also make sure that the port is open on your server and that there isn't a firewall blocking it. Although keep in mind that trying to overwrite a sprx might not work for you as that's the problem I had with this code. I couldn't give my SPRX permissions to delete/rename other SPRX files for some reason so overwriting your current one might not work either.

Ok I understand, but for example I can download a .txt file from the site and write it without permission problem as it is not an SPRX, if I understand well, the only worry is the fact that it is a SPRX so i need one function/bypass for erase the SPRX, right ?

Yes exactly. You could use this for a menu configuration system or something like that. The error I was running into: You must login or register to view this content.. I explained in that thread of a way around it but it's not an automatic solution.

Ok i see, i will try with .ini / txt files for see if my coding is good or not
Else i asked a gopro if he knows something about this, because (i'm not sure) but in his sprx for gta5, there is an auto updater.

just chmod 777 your sprx with a C++ code ?
