L4D and L4D2 apparently require an addoninfo.txt file in the VPK, which
includes the version number. No idea if clients will use that or not.

I think it's on client-side. Do you have checked your client installation
for this file? Maybe it is better for valve, when they deploy all files for
server and client together but only seperated by platform.

Team Fortress 2. I would like to thank you all for creating this mailing

L4D2 supports versioning but problem there was that VPK's didn't
download from the gameserver at all and when version of the campaign was
different than the one server/people on the lobby had, player needed to
manually remove that file. Valve said that the campaings wont download
from the
My idea was that the server would realize that some model in the download list
actually came from a VPK, so instead of telling the client to download the
model, it would say, download (and mount) this VPK.
Of course, the workshop is probably the best and solution to this problem. It
solves
Sorry, looks like I made a mistake and it didn't make it into the depot
yesterday. It should ship with both the client and server. I'll get that
fixed in the next update.
In the meantime, I put them up in our CDN so people could test them out:
media.steampowered.com/apps/520/vpk.exe
Will we be able to force users to download specific VPKs when they
connect to our servers? I know CS:GO does this for maps, but TF2's Vs
Saxton Hale and Freak Fortress 2 server mods rely heavily on the

I just installed the TF beta dedicated server. How come the total size
is around 11 GB, while the old TF via Hldsupdatetool totals at less than
6 GB? I get the feeling that now that everythings inside the VPK's, the
server has more stuff than it actually has to have.
Would be nice if someone
I see that, too.
Fresh TF2 install: 6,108,442,805 bytes in 58,470 separate files.
Fresh Beta install: 11,997,742,391 bytes in 1,841 separate files.
It looks like the beta ships with both .vmt AND .vtf files, while the normal
tf2 has only .vmt.
Those .vtf files add up to the difference in
Good catch - I havent looked into the VPK's yet... since the server
doesnt need the VTF's, it would be advisable for Valve to move all the
VMT's into a seperate VPK.

Thanks, I'll look into this.
The division of the assets by type is actually in anticipation of shipping a
more culled set of files to the dedicated server. It just hasn't been
optimized yet.
The audio data is in the same category. (Except perhaps the header data.)

Would the servers still be able to do sv_pure checks without the content?

To unsubscribe,
If the current sv_pure implementation stays, yes it would still work. What
we'd do is ship the xxx_dir.vpk files to the server, which has the MD5's in it.
We'd just omit the chunks. The server doesn't need the data, it just needs
the MD5's.
We're still working through the details of exactly
Will the servers be able to convert as well? I did this in the beta and it
seems to work fine (I first renamed tf2beta folder to tf).
Or is a fresh install required to prevent problems with things like
consistency checks?
