Title: ForcedDownloads Not actually downloading?
Post by: Mr-Softy on November 15, 2007, 12:42:29 PM
Ive just setup the forcedownloads to download some custom skins etc for my server,
but ive noticed that they appear to be downloading like normal, then when i join the server they havent downloaded at all, and when i check my garrysmod folder the custom skins do not appear in my folder?

Please help :)

Thanks

The only thing I've ever used the force DL for was a model and Skin for it. It worked fine...

Are you using a Download URL? or just having the server send the files from the server?

What exactly are you forcing? How do you have the command set up in your server.ini?

I hve seen this occur in the case where the sv_downloadurl was set, but the server either didn't exist, or didn't have the file it was trying to download. Make sure that if are using a download server that it has all the files you are trying to send, or if you aren't that the cvar is not set.

Hmm, ive tried removing the downloadurl from my config and leaving sv_allowdownload 1 in my config, but for some reason the files will still not download :S

are you adding them as /addons/<whatever>/<...>/... ? If so then that is why they aren't working. Do not add the addons/<whatever> part to the force download command. If you are using sv_downloadurl, then you will need to pull everything out of the addons directory and place it in the main directory when uploading the files to the download server. They can, and should, still stay in the addons directory in the game server.

add these to your server.cfg

Code: [Select]
sv_allowupload 1
sv_allowdownload 1
net_maxfilesize 64

its in your

Code: [Select]
/garrysmod/cfg
folder.

i had the same problem before added the lines of code and it works a treat hope that helps
