Hi. I read that step sounds and weapon sounds are in the client-side. Also I read that instead of trying replace we can make own step sound system. I'm wondering about how to do this using the orpheu. My concept: Hook as pre PM_PlayStepSound & _UpdateStepSound, in _play calls function with emit_sound and in second call OrpheuCall( PlayStepSound ). In both Engine hooks Play&update after their call return as OrpheuOverride. Would will this method work properly ?

Not sure but you don't need orpheu. You could play with pev_flTimeStepSound.

Using orpheu, I would set mp_footsteps to 0, then hooking PM_PlayStepSound() as pre, and playing my own sound here. Original sound should not played since there is a check at the start with pmove->movevars->footsteps. I guess it would be a nice method.

Works perfect. Tyvm.

The best option would be monitoring player model and play a sound on frame which he hits the ground.

what?

Monitor leg animation frames.

I don't see how it could be the "best option" when you would need more code and something CPU eating when hooking when the engine wants to play the sound will do the same effect at the end. Also CS doesn't work like that.

It would be the most accurate version. I know now that server doesn't monitor frames, its just client side, but how about making code that simulates player leg frames on his own ?
The original footsteps are very inaccurate, especially if you change player maxspeed to your own value, and you can't have at least slightest footstep sound if you're moving too slow. I have no idea how to start this though.

Feel free to play with PM_UpdateStepSound.
