Ultimate Workshop Downloader

Addon doesn't properly work, using both Workshop and Github.
neither versions of the addon work.
using the Workshop gives a telemetry error and other users get the "Map is missing error".
Not 100% sure if I installed the github version correctly, all I did was copy the recent pull request into my addons folder. The Github version doesn't give a telemetry error nor the Map is missing error, but only some addons are downloaded and the rest are either missing textures or errors. I've verified the game cache integrety on both ends so I'm not sure what the issue is.

To help you I need the console log showing the addons selected for download by UWD and your entire addons collection so I can test here and see the problem.

Note that if the addons require CSS or HL2 EP2, for example, and someone doesn't have those games bought and mounted, obviously errors and missing textures will appear.

Btw, I'd really appreciate it if you could send me this information. Usually we don't check the reports because people don't give any details.

Should I use workshop or github?
If I use github I'd like to know if I installed it correctly, currently I just have the entire github repo in my addons folder, is this correct?

I sent an update just now, so it's all the same. And yes, you installed it correctly, but if you're going to use the GitHub version, please download the current one (I made some minor improvements there).

oh yeah dw, I was using that pull request you made that fixed the telemetry error.
How would I send you my addon collection?

If your addons aren't in a collection you can create one here:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/editcollection/?appid=4000

Then just make it public and send me the link.
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/profiles/76561198831701395/myworkshopfiles/?section=collections

Don't forget to also send the console log of the selected addons so I can compare the results.
Ryguy 10 Apr, 2023 @ 6:57pm 
It's getting rather late for me, sorry. I can definitely send you my addons and the console log tomorrow if that's fine.
Xalalau  [developer] 10 Apr, 2023 @ 7:19pm 
It's ok, and I'm already very happy we've got this far. See you tomorrow with everything.

about to set up the console log, will just starting a server work or will I need someone who hasn't downloaded any of my addons to join?
Ryguy 11 Apr, 2023 @ 4:54pm 
anyways, here's a collection that contains only my addons (no dupes, maps, or saves!) https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2961149837
here's the log the console creates when starting a multiplayer server (only me on the server) https://pastebin.com/uGbLkggw

Hi. I'm going to load your collection to see what happens.

About the log, it should look like this one from my server:

Idk about WorkshopDL. Are you using a different script? (e.g. extracted in your addons folders or lost among your subs)

[Edit]

After a quick search I guess we're onto something: https://github.com/Facepunch/garrysmod-issues/issues/5428
It seems your server is not even mounting the addons. If that's the case abviously UWD won't work.

My current addons folder has no non-workshop addons and I have no other workshop downloader. My friend has addon share which also is broken however I have no clue if that's somewhere chached in my Garry's Mod files.

Wait, you only have 4.4 GB of content to download? Every test I've done has had a download size of around 7 GB...
