Is this circumvented by the download filter?

Re: SM File Downloader and Precacher
 

I dont know.
I will test it.:up:

Edit:
I'm pretty sure that this plugin don't circumvent the download filter.
It's impossible.

Re: SM File/Folder Downloader and Precacher
 

Sorry to be such a retard. What exactly is the plugin doing?

Re: SM File/Folder Downloader and Precacher
 

Some plugins need files. i.e WelcomeSound, or SaySounds, ...
The most of the plugins download the needed files automatically.
If the plugin downloads nothing, or you need a specific file on the client computer. You can put it on your server and add a line in the downloads.ini.
The next mapchange each client, which connects, downloads the files in the downloads.ini.
Models or Sounds must be precached in your game to use it.
I dont know exactly wich files must be precached or not.
But I'm pretty sure Models are one of them.

Hope this description helped you.:up:
