Posted updated Windows' builds for todays update, Linux builds available on request.
Pay attention to the warning regarding Steam voice.

asherkin, if you have a Linux build sitting around then I'd like it, but if you haven't built it yet then don't worry about it. I'll wait for the next update with the added features.

I'd like a Linux build too.

Does anyone know the pros/cons of the new voice system?

I like the idea that it's slightly higher voice quality and doesn't use server bandwidth (I think), but I hate to lose VoiceHook's functionality.

why is it closed-sourced?

Because.

To the above people: I'll have a Linux version soon, promise.
Working on moving a lot of my projects at the moment.

What's a good way to detect when a client stops using their mic?

Would something like this be too resource intensive? (killing/creating timers)

new Handle:MicTimers[MAXPLAYERS+1];

public OnClientSpeaking(client)
{
    if (MicTimers[client] != INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        KillTimer(MicTimers[client]);
        MicTimers[client] = CreateTimer(0.1, Timer_MicUsage, client);
    }
    
    if (MicTimers[client] == INVALID_HANDLE)
    {
        PrintToChat(client, "%N started talking.", client);
        MicTimers[client] = CreateTimer(0.1, Timer_MicUsage, client);
    }
}

public Action:Timer_MicUsage(Handle:timer, any:client)
{
    MicTimers[client] = INVALID_HANDLE;
    PrintToChat(client, "%N stopped talking.", client);
}

After messing around I found that ~.3 seconds is a good time to reset player speaking status.

I'll go with that, thanks.
