Hello to you all.

To start I want to apologize for my English because I'm Belgian ^ ^ "

Is it possible to change the sound of weapons of Counter Strike Source and change by other sounds.

After a search, I saw that it was impossible, only if a person could make is that it is not impossible.
I saw it on a server and it give me an idea.

Any idea?

Sincerely,
Kriax.

Bonjour à toutes et à tous.

Pour commencer je voudrais m'excuser pour mon anglais car je suis belge ^^"

Est-il possible de changer le sons des armes de Counter Strike Source et des les changer par d'autre sons.

Après une recherche, j'ai vue que cela étais impossible, seulement si une personne à pus le faire c'est que ce n'est pas impossible.
J'ai vus ça sur un serveur et ça m'a donner une idée.

Une petite idée ?

Cordialement,
Kriax.

You can use a normalsoundhook and change the sound in some games. But some sounds are clientside, so only others wil hear it.

Assuming that you're posting in Scripting because you want to make a plugin of it:

PHP Code:

#include <sdktools>
public OnPluginStart()
{
    AddNormalSoundHook(SoundHook);
}

public Action:SoundHook(clients[64], &numClients, String:sound[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH], &entity, &channel, &Float:volume, &level, &pitch, &flags)
{
    if (StrContains(sound, "sound_you_want_to_change.wav") > -1)
    {
        Format(sound, sizeof(sound), "directory/sound_you_want_to_replace_it_with.mp3");
        return Plugin_Changed;
    }
    return Plugin_Continue;
} 


A few notes:

1. The client always hears their own weapon sounds due to client prediction. You can play it again to the client (using EmitSoundToClient) so that they hear the changed sound, but it will overlap with the old sound.
2. I use StrContains in sound hooks because hooked sound paths seem to vary wildly, at least in TF2, most notably with / or \ slashes being reversed, or "*", ")", etc. being added in front of the sound path at different times.
3. You need to precache sounds (using PrecacheSound in OnMapStart) before playing them using the EmitSound* natives. If you want to replace them with custom sounds, you'll also need to use AddToDownloadsTable.

Why is format so popular?

Is strcopy strcat etc not optimized in sm?
I mean.. I see people even do weird stuff like explodestring and such when they could just strcopy from an indexed point in the array... And slap in a delimiter

[MasterOfTheXP]

I always just use Format without hesitation. FormatEx (or strcopy) is probably faster and therefore better in 99% of the places where I use Format.

Well is not so much an issue when you have 3ghz xeons, guess it was back in the day when we still had 30-100 mhz pcs :/

Ok thank you I see is that I can do: D

Sorry to bump this old thread, but the hook doesn't work on weapon sounds and everything else related to weapons, they don't trigger this.
