some maps in my server are above 150 MB, and when trying to download maps above 150 MB players must put the startup command -maxdownloadfilesizemb and put a large number to be able to download these maps, how can i be able to do that for them whenever they want to join my server?

If you're trying to imply that you want to force the startup command to them, you cannot. They have to manually do it

just don't bzip it

Probably, but I think for clients to download the map, they need to add it to their own game.

I think you can use +maxdownloadfilesizemb in starup, - for cl side

I think you can just not bzip files > 150MB.

Problem solved.

The issue is that if you bzip a map file that is over 150mb (regardless of what size it ends up as after zipping), when the game goes to extract it, it fails, then attempts to fallback to download the full-size bsp if available. I've attempted to limit the number of large size maps so this issue doesn't happen, as having clients download 150mb+ at once really sucks. If need be, I don't bzip the particular mapfile and just upload the full size .bsp to my fastdl.

Not really black, you can use the command I posted, and OP just with a + sign. It's been a little while since I bothered hosting csgo servers, but I'm fearly certain that's how I solved it.
Or just sm_cvar net_maxfilesize 100
