AFAIK, after trying one myself, your voice-quality will suffer quite badly if you use a voice-mask. The transfer (-rate) over net simply taxes it too much for it to be any good after the masking.

Not for HL, but some Soundblaster cards come with voice-alter profiles. Might work, might not. I'm assuming you suffer from squeaky-voice-syndrome? Try the 'Zeus' profile.

Personally I would want one that can instantaneously cause all eardrums on the team to asplode

What NS really needs is the ability to put voice masks on <i>other</i> players...

Most voice masking I've encountered distorts the voice to much. You cant understand what their are saying. Why not just use your regular voice?

Because it sounds dark and intimidating. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Or in some cases geeky and funny, making your team die of laughter before the skulks get at you. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I've got to say, this is one of the most lame things you can do with voice in the HL engine. I've considered perma muting the people who do this on my server and after a few days they all decide it's lame too and go back to normal voice.

Even worse are the people who decide that their MP3s are better then the one's you have playing in the background and spam music.

Please use the voice channel for what it's supposed to be used for and up the quality of your teamplay and game rather than nerfing the bandwidth and acting like a morn.

Mute my friend, Mute.

Out of curiousity, why would you want to mask your voice in HL?

I'll quote you to keep that up for 2 reasons:

1) It is probably true.
2) It is funny.
