How can I stop CS from downloading stuff like mp3's, wav's, pictures, and other crap everytime I join a server? I've tried cl_allowdownload 0, but that doesn't seem to do anything.

not sure if you cant, the servers might require them. maybe some kind of script to just make like .001 second silent mp3s as the filenames as the servers require instead?

Custom sounds and crap are SO annoying.


Add

cl_downloadfilter "nosounds"


to your config.

I'm not sure what the other parameters are. Maybe "nosounds;nomaps;nomodels" or something like that, but you'd have to look it up.

Thanks a ton guys. Exactly what I was looking for. This should be enabled by default, IMO!
