Are there certain types of mods that are allowed on valve servers? If so. which ones?

(Can be done easier with a mod loader)
- First Person Animations
- Effects (Muzzel flashes, explosions, etc.)
- Some Model/Cosmetic Retexture's

One's that don't work:
- Map Retexture's
- Weapon Retexture's (Like making any weapon Australium, etc)
- And probably everything else

I downloaded some sound mods for things such as the charge attack, dispenser, and other weapons. However, all they do in Casual is make a buzzing/static noise, even after joining a community server beforehand. Do you by any chance know what could be causing this?
Also, what is a mod loader?

Thanks for replying by the way, your help means a lot to me.

in some cases explosion replacements will work on casual, for example the config I got from cfg.tf replaces explosions and works fine on casual. While the cartoon explosion mod I got on gamebanana would only work on community servers

sucks that the cartoon explosions can't be used on casual servers, they fit the game quite nicely

Usually something like that can be fixed with snd_restart.
But these are mods so pretty much a lot of things can break.

If you've got a link to em i'll try em out.

Also a reminder, mods can be pretty funky sometimes, they don't always like to work, even if they're allowed by sv_pure 1.
