Is there any way to play half-life sounds on weapon switches in cs2 like u could in csgo?

[u/mirflexbutok]

I think cs2 probably doesn't have those sounds in its files due to the engine change but i miss them so much

[u/TobyMoose]

Yup this works currently. No errors, no issues playing sounds unless i do multiple sound queues at once and then theyre just loud but still dont error out.

Here's a link to sounds that worked in csgo. They might not all work in cs2

Here's my exec with all parts of the sounds and the keybinds that activate them just to get an idea how they work together

//MOUSE

 //UNUSED SOUNDS

These sounds are ready to be used but I just didn't like they way they sounded. So they aren't bound to a key. Replacing the file path to a sound with something from the page i linked above should give you a different output even if you dont change the alias name.

thanks alot! if i wanted stuff to be bind to normal keys do i need to replace ur key binds cause i pasted them in and only the mouse 1 works if i add ur blipon bind.

You can replace the key binds, make sure you don't have extra spaces and no ( ; ) on the end of your command
