Uploading files that are already uploaded
Uploading files that are already uploaded
I'm having an issue with SourceRSC where it will upload the same 335 files everytime I run the program. Nothing has changed in between each run, but it insists on uploading these same files. The file types range from vmt and vtf files, to model files including vtx, phy, and mdl formats to name a few. They appear to exist in my gamemode's content folder. Is there any rhyme or reason why SourceRSC is doing this?

Re: Uploading files that are already uploaded
It's usually because addons/gamemodes have the same directory name, but in different case.
Ie., one path is
addon/whatever/vtf
and another is
addon/whatever2/VTF
SourceRSC does case sensitive compares thus VTF and vtf are considered different folders. You can enable verbose in the .ini and determine try to figure out the path difference then rename the folder to match the same case. You should also contact the mod author to fix the case of the folder structure.

Ohh, so this essentially comes down to NTFS not supporting files/folders with different capitalization in the same folder, right?

No, windows does support different files/folders. Infact path/file names on windows aren't case sensitive, but on linux they are; hence why we can't blindly ignore case sensitivity in SourceRSC.

If you were referring to the italicized, then that would make it casesensitive.Masher wrote:No, windows does support different files/folders (with different capitalization?).

So were you agreeing or disagreeing with my previous post?
I thought you were primarily developing this for windows anyways, so what's the concern for?Masher wrote:but on linux they are; hence why we can't blindly ignore case sensitivity in SourceRSC.
Nevermind, I found the shell script

Thanks for helping me understand this as well, SourceRSC is working great now that I've deleted/renamed the offending files/folders.
