Here is the doc for the prog which checks client's pk3 files:

As you can see, it's not the solution some people thought it was (however it's an interesting effort): Players connecting to such a server MUST have the client portion installed, else they're kicked oOo: . So what the server portion does is querying the clients about which files are already present on Mohaa/main; if any invalid file is found, then the player is kicked.

I think it's not a great deal.

About the question which started this thread, I'm 99% sure you cannot know which files are already installed on the client just using the console eek: . Maybe Dogmeat work on Dogtagz would change that, but right now it's impossible, IMHO.

Regards
