About
Ever want that distinctive Source Engine reverb and echo effect to work everywhere on any map? If so, then this addon is for you!

If you're wondering what map is in the video, it's gm_novenka:

Thanks for 10000 subs!

Features
  • Automatically determine the appropriate reverb/echo preset based on the spatial size around you.
  • Four distinct effects for each size range.
  • Spatial size check works with anything solid e.g. props.
  • Works with every sound except sounds from external URL.
  • No more flat-sounding maps!

Commands
ere_active - Toggle the addon on or off. ere_respect_map_effect - Toggle whether the addon should stop applying effects after it detects that a map wants to apply its own. ere_cheap_mode - Cheap mode 1 will remove some diagonal traces. Cheap mode 2 will only use directly up and down traces. This is basically sacrificing accuracy for performance. ere_legacy_mode - Should legacy sound processing be used instead? Legacy sound processing is more distinct but dampens surround sound and may introduce audio crackling indoors.

Do you think it's possible to make sound muffle?

Hoping there's an option to preserve tinnitus effect in the future

been using this since it dropped and only recently realized it overrides any mod that tries to change dps for any reason, like underwater sounds or otherwise sound muffling

i'm not even sure if it would be possible to code it to let other stuff override it, but it would be a pretty good idea imo
this works best as a mod that works under everything else

great addon but it completely removes the tinnitus sounds

There's an add-on that did a similar thing a few months before this add-on released called EAX - Environmental Audio Extensions, but has not gotten updates since last year.

A distinct feature that it had was "Occlusion" which muffled sounds that were behind walls using the same checks for determining the reverb. It'd be cool to see this feature in this add-on at some point.

I just noticed something very cool that I think is a side effect.

This addon also fixes the issue of the reverb stopping when you ALT+Tab out of the game.

Noted, added ere_legacy_mode 0/1 command for toggling old sound processing.

Just letting you know, I prefer the reverb of the previous version a lot more. The optimization is appreciated for sure, but the reverb is completely different. That being said, thank you for this mod!

To address the performance issues I've added cheap modes :)
