problem with downloading overlays

-sang- · **Author**

I have a problem. From my server are not downloaded overlays.
They download each time at connection, but files do not appear.

Release: Zombie:Reloaded 3.0 Beta 1.

added:

I changed values
zr_roundend_overlays_zombie "overlays/zr/zombies_win"
zr_roundend_overlays_human "overlays/zr/humans_win"
On others, but it does not work (I rebooted a server, changed a map - does not help)

Plz help.

Some stuff you could check:

- Check error log. If something is missing or invalid it should write a message there.
- Make sure zr_roundend_overlay is set to "1", so round end overlays are enabled.
- Both .vtf and .vmt files must exist on server and client, for each overlay.
- DirectX version must be 9 or newer. Overlays doesn't work with version 8 and older.
- If you have problems with class overlays, check the path in playerclasses.txt.

Sounds like the files aren't on the server. Check materials/overlays/zr/ and make sure all 4 of the win files are there. The overlays downloads are set in downloads.txt.

Okay, thanks for answers.
On your servers overlays are normally downloaded?
If yes, I will search for an error at myself.

Yes I just downloaded all the overlays right now fine.

It could be your client? cl_allowdownload must be set to 1.

If you're using a http server for downloads, make sure they're on there as well.
