I've recently been trying to add some music files to play on my server. Do I need fastdl or something like that? I have no idea how to do it. This is for other people to hear it too
You can either download the sounds using workshop or FastDL. For FastDL, you need a webhost, though. Here's the functions you need for either: [url]https://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/resource[/url]

I added a folder named "music" in my sound folder and then added the music with "resource.AddFile( sound/music/soundfileexample.wav )" not sure if that works though.

Call it something like fastdl.lua In that file, put this for each sound in the folder (like you probably already did): [code] resource.AddFile( sound/music/soundfileexample.wav ) [/code] That should work. If you have done this, it should work.
