<function name="AddFile" parent="resource" type="libraryfunc"> <description> Adds the specified and all related files to the files the client should download. For convenience, this function will automatically add any other files that are related to the selected one, and throw an error if it can't find them. For example, a .vmt file will automatically add the .vtf with the same name, and a .mdl file will automatically add all .vvd, .ani, .dx80.vtx, .dx90.vtx, .sw.vtx, .phy and .jpg files with the same name, with a separate error for each missing file. If you do not want it to do this, use [resource.AddSingleFile](/gmod/resource/AddSingleFile). ⤶ <note>There's a 8192 downloadable file limit. If you need more, consider using Workshop addons - <page>resource.AddWorkshop</page>. You should also consider the fact that you have way too many downloads. This limit is shared among all resource.Add functions.</note>⤶ ⤶ <warning>There's a 8192 downloadable file limit. If you need more, consider using Workshop addons - <page>resource.AddWorkshop</page>.

Instead, the files must be added relative to their respective content folders. For example, a sound file from an addon would use the path "sound/[FILENAME_AND_EXTENSION]," despite the file being located in "addons/[ADDON_NAME]/sound/[FILENAME_AND_EXTENSION]"</note> </description> <realm>Server</realm> <args> <arg name="path" type="string">Virtual path of the file to be added, relative to garrysmod/.
