To clarify: each subfolder under custom becomes its own search path.
So this is an example of the right thing to do:
dod/custom/[customization_name]/models
dod/custom/[customization_name]/materials
dod/custom/[customization_name]/maps
Note that:
* the custom folder goes under the game folder, not the "orangebox"
folder. (There is no longer an orangebox folder or any shared
content or binaries. Each game is totally distinct.)
* you need to make a subfolder under "custom". Putting "materials"
or "maps" directly under custom is probably not what you want.
Read gameinfo.txt for more details on this.
The DoD:S beta just released had some old readmes in the wrong
folder. I will fix that shortly with a beta update today.

Having a ton of subfolders under custom could be a performance
penalty (for boot / map changes). Having a few would probably will
not impact server map change times by any real difference.

Is there any performance difference in keeping these custom files in:
orangebox/models/
vs
orangebox/custom/roleplay/models
If not, I rather stick it in custom for organization.

The FastDL server server doesn't work with VPK's. (Currently.)
VPK's are really ideal for client-side mods. I think the simplest
thing to do that fits in with the design of the new filesystem
conventions is to put your mod files under the "custom" directory,
loose on disk. People have figured out how to do this on the TF beta.
It is still possible to just drop files loose on disk in the game
tree, and if that works for you, you can keep doing it.
How different would these SteamPipe betas be compared to the actual
SteamPipe release?
Almost identical.
Is it safe to assume no more updates until SteamPipe is live?
No, we might need to update the non-beta versions of the game.

Thank you Fletcher, I run a highly custom server for CSS, so it's
very important to me.
Questions:
My mod uses a bunch of custom things (models/materials). Should
those be in a .vpk or can I keep it as it, where client gets it from
my FastDL?

Someone from Valve said that they will be moving one game to
SteamPipe first before TF2. DOD Source is close enough to TF2 in
engine (as update hits dods, hl2dm and tf2 at the same time engine
wise) so they see how it goes with that first before doing it for
larger playerbase (TF2). CSS will follow later.
Just wait but don't hold your breath too long.

And how about moving CS:S Beta (260) to SteamPipe for testing?
