A Resource list (.res file) accompanies a map. When the map is running, it directs the server to push arbitrary files to connecting clients.
While it is generally preferable to achieve this by using BSPZIP to embed the files into the map itself, there are occasional situations where only loose files and a .res will work.
Example
Resources
{
"materials/vdc/some_material.vmt" "file"
"materials/vdc/some_material.vtf" "file"
}
Tip:.txt, .res, .ain and .nav files with the same name as the map are automatically pushed, and don't need to be included.- Todo: What data types are there beside
file? - Todo: Can a .res be safely BSPZIPped?
Files
A resource list must be located in the 
maps folder with the same name as the associated BSP.
VGUI Resource Files
Some resource files can be found in your /resource folder. Most of them are for VGUI. For more information, see RES file (VGUI).
