I generally include all my vmf files with the map release cause i trust people won't disrespect my work and I think people can learn and borrow from it. Feel free to add mine to the list so people can use any for private use and whatnot. The map zips have them included and you can find those download links from the maps section if you really care that much.

Do you have to include all of the vmf's on the server?

I spent about a half hour converting to bz2 format for my fast DL. There was like 64 files if I remember right.

Son of a bitch. I just did his last two maps and converted all included files cause I wasn't sure. What about the vtf files?

So to recap I don't need to include the vmt or vtf files on the server or fast DL server?

vmf is for hammer so you only need that if your going to edit / look at the map in hammer.

vmt / vtf are for the materials and you do need to include those b/c if the player doesn't have them then all they will see ingame is the frontbuffer texture (the black and purple checker boxes).

adding to what they have said, a quick run down:

BSP = map file(that you play)
LUA = gameplay of the map(doors,goals,lasers,points,and many many other things)
VMT = defines your texture(metal surface,reflective,animated,transparent)
VTF = the actual texture
RES = tells the server what to download onto the clients machine
