Another useful command that I use is:

Code:

stopsound

Issue the "stopsound" command from your console to stop background noise like waterfalls and wind. You are able to hear footsteps coming clearer than ever without the distracting background noise. Unfortunately you must redo this command every time the map changes.

I have that bound to a key... you can bind it to one of your keys by typing this following command in the console.

bind "m" "stopsound"

This as great for loud maps like sniperjungle_b6

I tried that but it doesn't work for me. I can still hear my Wife yelling.

If you want to stop the music that starts up at the beginning of some maps on some servers, add "cd stop" to your config or type it in console.

Taking a page from the hacker's handbook to do something non-hackerish...

bind "x" "cd stop;wait;stopsound"

1 key = no more background noise, period
