Workshop not working
I am having a problem with the Steam Workshop for Garrysmod. I have created my own collection with content from others and properly added it to the server I believe, as I am able to switch the server's map and it runs fine. When players try to connect, it says they don't have the map, and doesn't download it automatically. The only way to connect with the map is to manually go to the workshop page and subscribe to it. Then they are able to join, however, this is not a very good solution as if everyone has to do that, no one will want to join in. Has anyone been able to successfully make the client auto download the addons? I have submitted a support ticket and we have tried multiple things to no avail. Thanks in advance for any help that I may get. -Josh
Re: Workshop not working
The client should be getting the maps from the workshop and not from the server. It sounds like there may be an issue with the workshop.
Have you checked your console.log for any errors to see if one of the files is failing to download properly?

Re: Workshop not working
From the request, the map is on the server properly, so it's not an issue with the files getting from the workshop to the server. If you subscribe to the collection, you can join fine, but the server is SUPPOSED to be telling the client "get this map from the Workshop" and it doesn't seem to be doing this.

I can see that they are indeed mounting as they are supposed to
Fetching Workshop Addons..
Calling GetCollectionDetails
Collection has 4 Addons
Mounting Addon 'ttt_fastfood_a6' (145316417)
Mounting Addon 'ttt_construction_v2' (145771103)
Mounting Addon 'TTT Horror Movie' (145061481)
Mounting Addon 'Dead Rising Mall TTT' (145192151)
However, no other logs are being posted when players connect.

Re: Workshop not working
Is your workshop collection private by chance? I wouldn't expect this to be an issue but if it is you may want to try making it public.joshh20 wrote:I can see that they are indeed mounting as they are supposed to

Re: Workshop not working
Private would make it an issue, I think, but his collection is public.
Re: Workshop not working
I don't believe workshop works as good as it's suppose to. I have workshop on my server, and some weapons texture files - show up as purple and black, so the client isn't getting everything.
Try a websync, if that doesn't work, your best bet is just to manually find maps and put them in the server.

Re: Workshop not working
Workshop is very glitchy and unreliable for servers. Use Workshop to download items to your client. Then from your client's computer, extract the addon you subscribed to. Then upload the files via FTP to your server.
