When players talk on the mic the game shows a few different pieces of information such as their name location ect. I wanted to know if there was any way to control what is being displayed so that for example I could prevent the location from showing up or add text to it.

zeroibis, do you mean the radio messages like 'You Take the Point'? I think you could do this by grabbing the user message for the radio and modifying the location data.

This is what I found in the SDK for the SendAudio user message

void CHud::MsgFunc_SendAudio( bf_read &msg )
{
    char szString[2048];
    msg.ReadString( szString, sizeof(szString) );
    
    CLocalPlayerFilter filter;
    C_BaseEntity::EmitSound( filter, SOUND_FROM_LOCAL_PLAYER, szString );
}

2048 is a pretty long string so it might be somewhere in there. I'd hook it and capture the entire string to log it and see what all it contains.

No I am referring to how when a user uses voice chat it displays their name ect to other clients in the box colored for there team. I want to be able to control what is displayed in that box.

Take a look at some of the mic controlling plugins out there (Distance voice, etc..) and see how voicechat is handled. Perhaps you'll be able to figure something out.

That is not what he is asking Monkeys (I think). He is looking for information on modifying the hud indicator. As far as I know, you can not control what is inside the voice hud indicator.

Well, it could be that the beginning/ending of voicechat was handled through usermessages, making you able to rename it, perhaps.
It's far fetched, but worth a shot.

Doesn't hurt to look ;)

You can't.
Word.

Dam, I guess the closest thing you could do is try to change the players name to append anything you want. However I do not know of or have seen any manner of hooking voice chat. The current plugins that deal with voice com are just adjusting setlistenoveride.
