Hello, im trying to find out how to set up FastDL so usersdon't have to wait an hour for things to download. Anybody know good guides to follow? Also another question, which files do i need to put in it (ex: materials, models, etc) All I know is that much and I cant find a list of all the folders it need :/. Thanks!
EDIT: Found a great guidehttps://www.xenonservers.com/clients/knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=123

RE: How do I set up FastDL for a Garry's Mod server? 24-03-2018, 07:11 AM #2 to get fastdl for gmod server, go to garrymod/lua/autorun/server --- then create a new file, write workshop.lua --- and to let players download them . create something inside . resource.AddWorkshop ("Workshop id")
-------------------
if you havnt added the auth and collection id, for the server. go to server panel. command line manager > custom commandline > create one ///
have you created the collection for it. if not create one on the workshop. need to be signed in and create one > then add the collection id on the custom command line ( collection need your workshop id the thing you want to add. )
( also go to the workshop addon you wanted to add will say add to collection. and select your collection. ) and subscribe for you to be faster.
if you have not connected authentication for it, http://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey - copy your auth and put it on the auth on the custom command line

It isn't. FastDL is when they download the files from somewhere other than the workshop (because it bypasses the speed limit of WorkshopDL) WorkshopDL is when you force them to download it from the workshop.

Workshop is different. Can't remember where I saw it but Workshop's speed is limited on Source games, unlike FastDL.
