Are players required to download any mp3 that you place in? If they do not need to download the files will this work in L4D and L4D2?

How does it play the sound? Does it play as if it was a client talking through microphone? (Example HLSS Half Life Sound Selector)

Yes, all players needed download sound files.

No, sound played from client-local files.

Is there a way to make it function similar to HLSS?

For example if you are not inside your server, and you type from your L4D2 Srcds Console (sm_say) it says your name is Admin to all the players in that server.

Is there a way to have the advertisement come as a selected sound played through microphone so that no downloading is required.

If this is possible the downloading would be unnecessary and long loading times would be eliminated. This could even work to be hooked with events to play sounds such as headshots, suicides, team kills, etc. Since this is sound only and not a visual mod, in theory, it should be able to work like HLSS.

There is no way to do that, servers don't have a microphone button. HLSS also works with clients and not servers.

Darn, I thought that was possible because I think I saw it done in a HLDM modded server. I'm not sure because it was a long time ago and I don't have HLDM anymore. Thanks for the input.

It is possible but it would require a Metamod plugin. See here.
