EDIT: I'm really sorry, I some how edited your plugin description and not the reason for edit. I've put one up there, I hope it's correct. |
Thanks Kyle. It's been a while since I've thought about this and I will revisit it at some point.
I did try Soundhooks but the ear bleeding isn't a sound. I thought it was a DSP thing, based on looking at a decompile keepers sounds but I never figured out how to do that. Changing the flag was the quickest option I had at the time. In game play the issue I've seen is damage appears to be reduced from explosions like rpg and slam. That wasn't a big deal on the servers I used this on.
