So a cool plug in we had on our 1.6 server allowed you to execute some radio commands Valve never made functional in later versions of cs. I'm not sure why as they are actually pretty useful, the original plugin can be found here:

http://djeyl.net/forum/index.php?act...=post&id=44858

You had to create your own bind (bind v radio4) to bring up the new menu, but they worked perfectly:

Circle around back
Ok team, follow my command
I'm hit!
I'll take the point
Team, lets get outta here
I'm hit! Need assistance!
Teammate down!
Meet at the rendezvous point

They're recorded by the same guy (Cliffe I think) so they sound great in game. I'm not actually sure if these commands made it to the cache of cs-source, so here are the .wav files from my 1.5 install:

So what would be cool ;) is if someone could make these available in the same way via an extra radio menu. If the sound files don't exist within the source cache, then they could be uploaded to clients on connect just like the unreal sounds.

Anyway, enough of my rambling... what do you think?

I'd like that, but also allow us to make custom menus with custom sounds and commands

Press v and 1:
"Bomb is here on the ground" and then my custom sound for it

Press v and 2:
"Use your grenades" and then my custom sound for it


Or, it could be used as a taunt sytem like UT's, and everyone would hear the sound and see the text.

Press v and 1:
"%n, You were good target practice" and then the sound

%n being the last person who was killed by the player

Custom menu would be better than jsut that, but I'd settle for it too.

You mean so you would have player specific custom radio? That would be awesome too, although I think it would get to the point where there was too much uploading to clients.

Howdy,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Mani Admin Mod has ma_play to play sounds to all clients. Surely the beavis and butthead sounds aren't by default on the client PC's :p

Could the custom radio sounds not be used this way aswell?

I'm not familiar with Mani mod, but it would have to only play them to your team, so I don't know if that's possible.

Of course, I could just use hlss to play these .wav's over voice chat, but that kinda defeats the purpose.

The original plugin actually made your radar position flash and posted a radio echo just like the built in commands, which was really cool =)

I meant that the menu would be a server side thing.

Everyone on that server would have the same menu. I don't even think you could do the client side thing.

I understand what you mean, I just meant if there were a lot of additional custom radio commands they would all have to be downloaded to every new client joining which might be too much. (As it is those old unreal announcements take annoyingly long to stream)

Theres also a small chance the commands I'm talking about are actually included in the source cache already, they were in 1.5 and 1.6 despite not being used.

I don't have a problem downloading some sounds, especially when they'd add more fun to the game.

Besides that, you only have to d/l them once.

Custom menu, maybe not. But it'd be cool.
