[Request] Block taunt voicelines

[MAGNAT2645]

As we know, "sound_block_vo" works fine, but some taunt voicelines (like from new scout taunts) still can be heard. Maybe there's a way to block these VO?

[Batfoxkid]

I need to figure out a method to block those, new workshop taunts are probably going to keep doing this.

[MAGNAT2645]

There's also not important problem but anyways: Is there any way to block catch_phrase while you're pressing E for normal RAGE or AMS?

I have Ness and he says "Okey" when you're trying to use PK Fire and etc. :D So i want to know this can be fixed or not?

I did recently add catch_replace in development branch with can replace certain class voicelines instead of all of them, you can probably use it to block call for Medic sounds or make the voiceline appear on certain lines.

[MAGNAT2645]

So, can you give an example of how to block "Medic!" voiceline for Ness? I just don't want to hear "Okay" when he used PSI.

catch_replace
{
        "1"     "vo/null.mp3"
        "vo1" "vo/scout_medic01.mp3"
        "2"     "vo/null.mp3"
        "vo2" "vo/scout_medic02.mp3"
        "3"     "vo/null.mp3"
        "vo3" "vo/scout_medic03.mp3"
}

So i can have "sound_block_vo", "catch_phrase" and "catch_replace" ?

[Batfoxkid]

Yep, orders like this: 1st. catch_replace 2nd. catch_phrase 3rd. sound_block_vo

It's may be a little late but i found out that AddNormalSoundHook doesn't work (doesn't block any sound) if you use SND_CHANGEPITCH flag (with changed pitch var) and channel is SNDCHAN_VOICE.

You can test this using Resize Players plugin with cvar sm_resize_voices = 1. If you change your size, your pitch changes too and then any AddNormalSoundHook (from other plugins) with Plugin_Stop or Plugin_Handled doesn't work so you still can hear class voices.

If you change your size back to normal (1.0) then SND_CHANGEPITCH flag isn't used so you don't hear any voices. This surely works with any voices but idk about taunt voices.
