• resource.AddFile problem?

[CODE]resource.AddFile("models/player/show_alien.dx80.vtx")[/CODE] is an example of one I have on the fastdl lua file. It's not working and I can assure you it's in the right file path. Do I need to do this instead? - I was told that it does not matter but I need to make sure. does it need to have spaces? instead of (" it be ( " [CODE]resource.AddFile( "models/player/show_alien.dx80.vtx" )[/CODE] If not I have no clue what the problem is. it works on my server fastdl but everyone has it as ( " instead of (" lua is in garrysmod/lua/autorun/server If you have another idea that might be a solution please do tell. I have no one else to ask, so sorry I'm asking such a nooby question on here ^^ - I normally do not have any problems like this. -BTW He's running the server off of his own computer could that have anything to do with it? - Doubt it?
A. Spaces don't matter B. Do you have a Fast DL set up at all? C. If B is yes, do you have the Fast DL configured correctly on your server?
I may be wrong but resource.AddFile adds the file specified and the related ones, so wouldn't you add the .mdl file instead of the .dx80.vtx file? From the older wiki: [quote] For convenience, this function will automatically add any other files that are related to the selected one, and throw an error if it can't find them. For example, a .vmt file will automatically add the .vtf with the same name, and a .mdl file will automatically add all .vvd, .ani, .dx80.vtx, .dx90.vtx, .sw.vtx, .phy and .jpg files with the same name, with a separate error for each missing file. If you do not want it to do this, use resource.AddSingleFile. [/quote]

From the older wiki:[/QUOTE] I was just showing a demo. I didn't add just dx80 i did the model too. And I found out the problem i believe. I left [CODE]resource.AddFile("models/player/[/CODE] just open on a line of it's own-Deleted it.. He hasn't tested it yet. And it is not my server. I cannot see inside his files, I only have the stuff he sent me. He put everything in the right place. Is dx80 really not necessary for the download? - I've always done it by workshop not AddFile
I think you misunderstood me, it is necessary to download, but when you add a .mdl file with resource.AddFile it will automatically add the related files like the quote explained in my last post.
