The error code 8 stands for "parameters are incorrect" what could i be doing that is incorrect?! [CODE] Usage: Create a workshop item: gmpublish.exe create -icon path/to/image512x512.jpg -addon path/to/gma.gma List all uploaded workshop items: gmpublish.exe list Update an existing workshop item: gmpublish.exe update -id 1337 -addon path/to/gma.gma -icon path/to/image512x512. jpg [-changes "fixed something"] gmpublish.exe update -id 1337 -icon path/to/image512x512.jpg gmpublish.exe update -id 1337 -addon path/to/gma.gma [-changes "fixed smthing"] -id is the workshop item id, -changes is is optional Press any key to continue . . .

(this can take a long time - it's actually uploading the files right now..) PublishWorkshopFile failed! (8) [/CODE] Any suggestions? Btw the addon will not be public because i could get into some trouble with the original developer.

well i got the same issue with my map this error is annoying.. still no fix for it?

can anyone tell me a solution?

same for me seems to be a steam or gmpublish problem :/ but it has to be possible since other people have uploaded maps since

The upload error 8 is finally resolved! It doesnt mean the file size is too big or anything like that, it actually has to do with your folder properties. The way i did it was i went into the base addon folder (myaddon) and looked at its properties. I then went into the "Customize" tab and made it Music optimized. Then I also gave myself all permissions under the security tab. Lastly i went to the "General" tab, clicked on advanced and unchecked "folder is ready for archiving." PS. Make sure all subfolders within the addon (lua, materials, etc.) are NOT Music optimized but are General optimized. I hope this helps! If you still have problems, put a comment on my steam profile!
