Having trouble getting Addons for my server

[NeiNei]

I've done some searching through the forums and googled the problem, but I haven't found any solutions yet. I apologize in advance if this has been asked a plethora of times or has been stated that amount of times, but here I go:

I have input the API key where needed in the Easy Setup tab, along with the collection I've made with the ID of 341420501 (http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... =341420501).
It worked. I got a few addons, until I noticed that not all of them were downloaded like they should have been. I don't see some player models that I tried to implement and a few addons aren't showing up/are missing.

What do I need to do for this? I've restarted the server plenty of times, and it doesn't seem to do anything. Also, whenever I 'commit changes' in the Easy Setup Tab, I get a message saying An SVN Sync is in progress. I'm not sure where to check the progress of that because even in the Events Log tab, it states that there were no new files added. I've been trying to get the rest of my addons since last night (when I bought an NFO Server).

My account is currently in trial mode, and I'm loving the servers so far- but this is my biggest issue, and I've had this issue even before I transferred to NFOS.

Additionally, other players aren't automatically downloading the few addons that managed to make it into the server. I've given an elaborate explanation as to what my issue is, so hopefully I can get this fixed?

Best regards,
Nei Nei

For things like models/sound/textures..etc you need to force download them, as in most cases something is specifically calling it. We talk about how to do that here http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =65&t=7337 and even offer a tool which will do it for you for here http://www.configcreator.com/create/gmod/resources.lua .

As for the SVN log. You can check the root of the "garrysmod" folder in FTP and look for the "SVN-results" log file. This will contain all the information on the SVN sync.

Hi, Kraze! Thanks for answering me, I went to the link, and it says it's found 0 addons in the collection once I put in the ID? I'm not sure what's up with that, but as I wait for a reply, I will research it.

Thanks again for these links, I feel on step closer to getting this problem fixed.

What ID did you enter?

[NeiNei]

The ID I've entered is 341420501.

[kraze]

I entered that and it appears to have responded properly. Says 36 addons were found and it generated http://pastebin.com/UkcbAuZ7 .

Okay, user error...I was supposed to type it, not copy and paste it.

Alright, well everything was downloaded and mounted now. But...for some reason no addon is actually showing up? For instance, the same Player models and addons I had before I inserted the .lua file is there, but everything else isn't there. I've restarted my server about two times and performed Websync.

Also, Dark RP has never actually been installed (since last night), even though I selected that to be installed in Easy Setup.

I am having trouble following you. Can you clarify a bit more?

I apologize, what I mean is that I have all the addons I had before I put the resource.lua file into my FTP Server. But the rest of the addons won't show up, even though they download when I first load into the game.

So it'll say "Getting addon #5340344 (example)" and that it's mounting the new addons, which it did not do before I put the .lua file into the server. But whether it does that or not, the addons it says it's downloading don't actually show up in-game.

Are you referring to the sounds/models..etc in those addons?

No, the addons themselves. (:

[kraze]

Have you checked your client side install to confirm they are indeed downloading?

[NeiNei]

You're talking about the files in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\addons, correct?

If so, yes. I'm actually deleting obsolete files right now. But I don't know why the addons thatare being downloaded to the server aren't actually registering.... Could it be an issue on my end? I asked a few of my members and they told me it's the same for them.

Is to safe to assume you also have your API key and collection ID set on the server via the "Easy setup" tab?
