Custom workshop maps dont always update correctly causing ERROR sprites
Hi here!

aside from playing I also host servers with custom maps and a bunch of them are showing the error sprites.

there seems to be an issue with dedicated servers not correctly updating the maps trough steamcmd.

more here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/hammer/comments/17v97me/cs2_issue_with_workshop_map_on_dedicated_server/

when i have some more time ill try to dig into where the linux dedi caches/stores the workshop maps and try to clear that out.

server download location for linux:
Steam/steamcmd/yourserverfolder/steamapps/workshop/content/730

Thank you for investigating on this and sharing for other people hosting servers ! I suppose clearing the downloaded VPK would force the server to download the latest version from the workshop indeed, did it help ?
just removing the cache on the server and unsub/resub in steam client did not resolve it.

on the server the command: workshop_status 730:

- Item 3070923343 : subscribed, installed (391465647 bytes, Tue Nov 14 18:29:10 2023),

On the gamepc in steam client I unsubbed, restarted steam, subbed and noticed it re-downloaded it :)

I wont give up easilly but it seems like CS2 and workshop maps still have some issues (this is also happening on de_biome atm)

next step im doing now is just nuking the entire server folder forcing a redownload of the entire game and its ws items :)

nuke did not resolve it this seems to be happening only on dedicated server and started happenning 2 days ago

below are errors I only see when joining dedicated, when making a server in the game client these errors are not there; maybe it makes sense to you?

not meant as spam but to test yourself type in console

connect cs2.watle.uk
(server is in NL so might lag if your from the other side of the globe) :)

Yes it makes sense, 2 days ago is when I pushed the update.
These errors refer to missing resources, which makes sense because it's trying to load stuff the server doesn't know exist, so the references are more ID references than actual file references.
e.g : Revision #1 did not have the mattress on the lounge chairs and the updated toilet doors, and since those are dynamic objects (that need to be replicated between server and clients), the server is using obselete references that don't exist anymore on the revision #2, making these objects invisible or big "ERROR" on client side.
The static geometry is displayed properly on client side, even if they differ a bit, but the collisions are a bit more problematic and server has to resolve things so that it makes sense.
I joined the server and it's the same usual thing : server is running revision #1 and clients are on revision #2.
We need a way to force the update of workshop maps on dedicated servers, i hope someone reported this to valve (using the CS2Team@valvesoftware.com mail)
i just trashed the entire server and re-downloaded it all again to a new folder which fixed the issue. lets hope they fix this soon :)
leplubodeslapin  [developer] 19 Nov, 2023 @ 5:03pm 
Oh. ok. Lol if that works then good ! I hope we get a real fix for this though ^^'
Thank you for all the investigation and effort you've put into this !!

Here is the fix without nuking your whole server:

you need to delete the workshop folder at: /steamapps/workshop/content/730/WORKSHOPID
but also wipe the two entries in the appworkshop_730.acf file, after this you have to restart the server.

*edit: This is fixed now, servers update maps when they are restarted.
