Disable hlss/hldj scripts?

[Cable]

I've been on servers before where using hlss and hldj didn't work. Do you think this could be implemented on the servers? Or atleast the TTT server. I know "Just mute them" But i don't want to mute the person and start talking over them all the time not knowing so. Suggestions or ideas?

TBH It seems to me that the server has something that let's it work. rNd is the only server I can get hldj to work on -_-

[Deathie]

sv_allow_voice_From_file [0/1]

By default, it's 0, which disables HLSS or HLDJ.
RND has it set to 1.

Basically, it'd be a simple thing of changing it in the server CFG's from 1 to 0, so theres nothing really to implement.

I agree it would be nice if it was disabled on TTT, but other servers, leave it.

If someone wants to talk to you over mic, then they shouldn't have mic spammed in the first place.

This is an interesting subject.

On one hand, it is annoying when you try to talk, and you have 2 people trying to play music and 2 people talking at once - between being heard and how loud / annoying all those combined sounds, well, sound.  Last night in ZS I remember 3 people trying to play music, 2 people chatting by voice simultaneously [5 sources of sound at once + game sounds == headache].  OTOH sometimes music can be a good thing - depending on the song chosen can even enhance the mood [I know when I have some Rammstein playing in Winamp the adrenaline rush keeps me going during those late night games], hell, sometimes you will be playing with a group of people who WANTS to hear music - in which case, theoretically, muting that player is an option... dunno where to stand personally though I am finding myself in agreement moreso with Snivy and  DoeniDon's opinions.

its a good idea yes 

[cogsandspigots]

I agree with Snivy.

Disable it on TTT, but keep it on the rest.

I was playing on sledbuild and we had our own personal DJ. People who didn't like it just muted him, and it didn't affect their gameplay at all.

Eh. I say put in votemute. Just my opinion.

[Peetah]

Its useful in some servers, but theres always mute so not big problem.

Not to mention there's always at least two people using HLDJ in ZS.

It seems more of an issue when Communication is KEY in a gamemode like TTT.

If someone starts micspamming, but only 2 / 9 players Muted said micspammer (You and one other person who is already dead) and you SEE the traitor, you're yelling as loud as you can over the mic "ITS ______ ITS ______ HES SHOOTING ME WITH A TMP, FUCKING HELP--"

And nobody would know any better cause everyone in the server is a fucking moron and either likes to have their speakers blow out, or doesn't know how to mute.


But I also agree a votemute would be REALLY helpful. Some people don't play music at all, and use HLSS for soundboards and such.

The game is really meant to be fun and not annoying. A Vote mute would be veeeeeeeeeeerrrrrryyyyyyy noic.

Pardon if this sounds stupid, but could that also mean a vote unmute type thing as well? [like if somebody was muted, and later it is decided that, ok we should give him another cnace" type of thing?]

I was thinking it would have a timer on it anyways ._.

Like 10 Minutes.

It'd be a bitch if people were randomly votemuting each other, and making an admin have to un-mute them.

This.

I don't like muting people because what if they need to say something important?
