Every time I connect to a dm server I have to wait and dl a bunch of mp3 files, anybody know how I can fix this (I don't want to disable downloading files from servers completely)

edit: actually there are some wav files not just mp3

I don't want to disable downloading audio files, I just want to not have to keep downloading the same ones every time I connect

Change the cl_downloadfilter to "nosounds" when you want to play DM and change it back when you're done?

you are not downloading and overwriting the same files. every server gonna make his own folder, and donwload them again and again. its not much space, but i really recommend using the mapsonly or nosound value just because time and security issues.

This happens every time I connect to the same dm server though, not just when I join a new server. Every time it changes maps I have to dl a bunch of .wav and .wav.bz2 files too

Does the server have class limits? It is most likely this sourcemod plugin https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=73104&page=48

Its an old but working plugin, and has an included sound file. I believe Valve changed the sound files in March (https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/March_31,_2015_Patch), and updated the .wav format to .mp3. Hence, the .wav file included in this old plugin is considered custom and hence needs to be downloaded.

If this is the plugin causing the issue, there's an updated version on the last few pages of that thread.

Yeah it's the tftv dm servers that cause it, they probably use this plugin. Anybody else getting this? I suppose Sal could update it if this is the cause.
