Sorry for posting so much e mail.
I tried to do an exception list, but that didn't even work:
Pure server: client has loaded extra file
[GAME]\materials/correction\airport_main.raw. File must be removed to play
on this server
Here is my whitelist:
materials\... allow_from_disk+check_crc
materials\correction\... allow_from_disk
materials\blueblackflash.txt allow_from_disk
materials\models\materialslist.txt allow_from_disk
materials\particle\grayscalegradient.tga allow_from_disk
materials\particle\grayscalegradient.txt allow_from_disk
materials\sprites\tp_beam001.txt allow_from_disk
materials\vgui\fonts\buttons_32.vbf allow_from_disk
If anyone could help...
