SOUND NOTES;

Where Are The Stock Sounds ?....
They Are In the Vpk folder (Really Just a Folder that Steam Tried to Hide From You )and to open it you need to get a program that can extract the contents , i use GCF Scape But it has to be a newer version to open vpk's steam used to use gcf files but for some reason to be a pain in the ass they moved them and changed the file type here is a link to GCFScape's home page
http://nemesis.thewavelength.net
MUSY BE 1.7.1Or Better To Open.VPK files

BUTTT if your lazy u can just download some zip folders i have on my private webspace (Half-Life Source .Gcf Contents Not Half-Life 2 and they are from back when steam used Gcf Around Nov 17, 2016)that might be a bit outdated but u can pick out of the list of .zip folders and just grab the section you need but id still recommend getting gcf scape its great being able to look around in all the files steam tried to hide from you

Custom Gun Sounds? (Test Needed)

i haven't tried this yet but will be soon so im not 100% sure im assuming the cfg would go like this

----------------------------
"reload" "hl2/custom/weaponfx/Gunfx.wav"
//(more than likley will have to make these files and they have to be here when your adding anything custom(Models-Sounds-Materials) idk why but its annoying as fuck )

//Weapon Accuracy
(This comes off very confusing at first glance ........................ DONT WORRY it is confusing as fuck lol )

,,well i mean i kind of understand whats going on here its the bullet spread in various ACTIONS so i left the default up here for an ak-47 but the idea is the smaller the " VECTOR_CONE_ 2 DEGREES;} " the more on target your rounds will be ill post a couple more defaults in a good range of weapons here so u could have a reference ..

Now i am a bit confused why it repeats is it because its burst mode and one is for the first shot ? or i dont know ,Now if you look at the pistol i added why is it so short ? i think the ak-47 i got was custom made from a tutorial and this pistol is stock hummm lets find another ...looking over the mp5 there isnt a static vector at all now is that because the gun is accurate by default but i did find some other cvars to remove accuracy so what this deemed enough by valve ...i find myself more confused now that when i first started this page ???? (T) (?)

(?)//Accuracy (AK-47 Default) static Vector cone=VECTOR_CONE_1DEGREES; if (m_bInZoom) { if (m_iStance==E_DUCK) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_0DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_STAND) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_1DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_MOVE) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_1DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_RUN) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_3DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_INJURED) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_4DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_JUMP) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_5DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_DYING) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_10DEGREES;} } if (!m_bInZoom) { if (m_iStance==E_DUCK) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_1DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_STAND) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_1DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_MOVE) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_2DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_RUN) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_3DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_INJURED) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_4DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_JUMP) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_5DEGREES;} if (m_iStance==E_DYING) { cone = VECTOR_CONE_10DEGREES;} } int bs=BURST; if (m_iBurst!=bs) { //for (int i=0;i<(bs-m_iBurst);i++) for (int i = m_iBurst; i < bs; i++) { cone=cone+VECTOR_CONE_1DEGREES; } }

(?) //Accuracy (Pistol Default) static Vector cone; if ( pistol_use_new_accuracy.GetBool() ) { float ramp = RemapValClamped( m_flAccuracyPenalty, 0.0f, PISTOL_ACCURACY_MAXIMUM_PENALTY_TIME, 0.0f, 1.0f ); // We lerp from very accurate to inaccurate over time VectorLerp( VECTOR_CONE_1DEGREES, VECTOR_CONE_6DEGREES, ramp, cone ); } else { // Old value cone = VECTOR_CONE_4DEGREES; } return cone; }
