How would one go about stopping something that is already playing from EmitSoundToAll()

[11530]

Hook sounds with AddNormalSoundHook then detect the sound in the callback returning Plugin_Stop on all sounds you want to block.

Specify a channel when you do EmitSoundToAll, then loop through all clients calling StopSound on that sample and channel.

[11530]

My bad, read that as blocking and not stopping.

So it would be something like:

EmitSoundToAll(SOUND,client,SNDCHAN_VOICE);

for(new i=1;i<=MaxClients;i++)
    {
        StopSound(i, SNDCHAN_VOICE, SOUND);
    }

This would play SOUND and stop SOUND, correct?

Not quite, when calling StopSound, you need to check if the client is in game before stopping it.

PHP Code:

for(new i=1;i<=MaxClients;i++)
    {
        if (IsClientInGame(i))
            {
                StopSound(i, SNDCHAN_VOICE, SOUND);
            }
    }

Also so far the sound only plays with SNDCHAN_AUTO I am trying the rest 1 by 1 but no success so far.

SNDCHAN_STREAM works

I have this problem with entities created that emit sound from gibs fired by envshooters, they never stop their burning sounds sometimes, even when you destroy them =/

[zeroibis]

you mean burning sound from an ignightentity command? You need to extinguish the ent before destroying it or the sound can get stuck.

I think that's it, but it might be a problem with this specific ent. I forget

env_shooter with spawnflags 6, I think it fires burning gibs,

Flags

2 : On fire <<<<
4 : strict remove after lifetime
GibshooterBase:
1 : Repeatable

Mabye it's this problem. I think the gib shooter creates gibs, so i'd need to extinguish those before they get deleted. I think they delete on their own as is when these spawnflags are set, but the engine doesn't handle it properly. I was never able to find a way to remove them reliably or stop the sound from spawning. Could probably do it with a sound hook though.
