It can only download 1 file before failing which is why everyone gave up on it...... But why not make that 1 file a vpk?!

Attano commented 9 years ago

What do you mean? What exactly is failing?

You can always come up with a custom plugin using sockets that downloads all the files you need manually, one by one. That or it can download an archive and extract it using a zip extension or whatever.

I don't know much about it other then it would hang after the first download.

Attano commented 9 years ago

Ah, I misunderstood. I thought you meant serverside preloading.

No, the L4D2 engine is a bit garbage when it comes to legacy functions. There's no reliable way of doing this. /wontfix
