Missing .WAV files for M9K

Description
THIS WILL NOT HELP IF YOU ARE USING A CONTENT PACK FOR A GAME YOU DO NOT OWN! IF YOU HAVE A GAME CONTENT PACK, GET RID OF IT!

This addon conatins the original .WAV sound files from the M9K weapons packs, from before I switched them over to MP3s to save space.

Some people have been getting errors saying that their WAV files are missing. This is actually a symptom of another problem: somewhere in your system, you still have the old and outdated information. Anyway, this treats the symptom.


DO NOT GET TOO EXCITED! THERE IS NOTHING NEW IN THIS ADDON!

IF THIS ADDON DOES NOT RESTORE YOUR SOUNDS

Empty the contents of your downloads/server folder, try removing legacy downloads, and deleting the M9K addons so they get re-downloaded.

Also, it's possible you've hit the lua limit. Try disabling some addons, and if you have a lot of addons, try disabling A LOT of addons. For example, ALL OF THEM except for the M9K addons. This isn't permanent, but if the sounds work again, then you've definitely hit the lua limit, and you'll have to unsubscribe form a few addons.

THIS ADDON WILL NOT RESTORE SOUNDS IF YOU HAVE HIT THE LUA LIMIIT

If that still doesn't work, I recommend completely reinstalling Gmod. Once you've done an uninstall from within steam, manually delete garrysmod folders BUT BE CAREFUL TO BACKUP LEGACY DOWNLOADS YOU WANT TO KEEP THAT YOU KNOW FOR CERTAIN AREN'T CONFLICTING WITH THE ADDONS YOU WANT TO FIX. Your subscribed addons will be re-downloaded when you start up gmod. Now, go and re-install the game. Once you start up, your subscribed addons will be re-downloaded.

No, it isn't necessary.

I'ts a fix for a change I made several years ago. I originally shipped the addons with .WAV sound files. I converted to MP3s later when I learned I could save a lot of space. Some modders had customized their addons, but were coded for WAV files. On occassion, a player would find that the weapons were silent because the WAV file was missing. This just replaces those files, just in case. Chances are you will never need this addon.
