What it does

With 1, running players make footstep sounds that others can hear. Set it to 0 to make all movement silent, which changes the game a lot since sound is a major source of information.

Good to know

  • Walking and crouching are silent regardless of this setting.

Run it on your server

On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to cstrike/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS 1.6 server first.
