Do not stop the updater from updating your files, you will most likely run into an issue at some point.

All SM's gamedata has been updated already in this case and should be on the updater.

tf2items isnt part of sm, it is a seperate extension maintained by asherkin, who controls the gamedata (which he will probably fix when he is awake). It happens to be on the gamedata updater, but its not official part of sm.
I tried using the custom folder a long time ago and it didn't work for some reason. Maybe it is fixed now?

Either way you do it, by making the file read only or using the custom folder, if you forget to undo the change, the result is the same.

I know that tf2items isn't a part of sm, but sourcemod is still overwriting the gamedata as though it was an official extension.
