[stoner]

im having some troubles with pure_server_whitelist.txt on my tf2 server i got a bunch of sounds on it and fast downloads but they werent downloading with sv_pure 0 so i put it to 1 edited the pure_server_whitelist.txt so they would download but they still arent downloading ive ran source servers in the past and never had this issue before i have doubled checked that all the files are on my webserver and there all bzipped the maps will download just fine but the sounds are refusing to download its becoming very frustrating heres my pure_server_whitelist

//
// 3 modifiers are allowed on file specifications:
//
// from_steam - only check the Steam cache for the file (ignore anything on disk)
// allow_from_disk - allow the file to come from disk
// check_crc - used with allow_from_disk - server does CRC checks on the client's file to make sure it matches
//
// The default modifier on all files is allow_from_disk. Thus, all files can come from disk and don't need CRC checks unless
// allow_from_disk can be set at the same time as check_crc. Use the + character in between them to signify this: allow_from_disk+check_crc.


//
// Three types of file specifications:
//
// 1. directory\*.* - refers to all files under the directory
// 2. directory\... - refers to all files under the directory and all directories under that (recursively)
// 3. directory\filename - refers to a single file


//
// By default, when in pure server mode, most content file types are only allowed to come from Steam.
//
materials\... from_steam
models\... from_steam
sound\... allow_from_disk


//
// Allow custom player models. Don't do CRC checks on them because the clients may all
// have different custom models and the server won't have them all.
//
models\player\... allow_from_disk
materials\models\player\... allow_from_disk


//
// Allow custom spray decals.
//
materials\temp\... allow_from_disk
materials\vgui\logos\... allow_from_disk
materials\vgui\logos\ui\... allow_from_disk



//
// (Uncomment and edit these for mods).
// Allow mod resources to come from disk.
//
// materials\mymod\... allow_from_disk+check_crc
// models\mymod\... allow_from_disk+check_crc
// sound\mymod\... allow_from_disk+check_crc
}

am i missing something?

Either a .res file is needed or an addon that will make people download the files they need, it does not automatically download it for them, you can do it in mani, theres an addon for sourcemod too.

Do you hear the sounds ingame though? Sometimes the files are lost after you quit the game for some weird reason and you need to keep redownloading them, but then one day randomly it works again

no they did download when i didnt have the fast downloads setup but it takes for ever to get into the server without the fast downloads now they just refuse to download with or without sv_pure setup

Is the structure in the downloadurl correct? And are the sound files bzipped?
