FearFactory (Zeroping) sent over an email to let us know that he's written up a new article/guide. The guide gives a load of little tips about CS that people may not be aware of, yet:"Ever been in a map like cs_Militia where the door often gets stuck and annoys the shit out of you with that squeaking sound? Or maybe you're sick of that music in cs_Italy and it prevents you from hearing footsteps of oncoming enemies. Or quite possibly the elevator is stuck in as_Oilrig and the motor sound won't shut the hell up. Well there's an easier fix then slamming your foot through the computer's sound card (believe it or not)! Simply type "stopsound" (no quotes) in the console and viola, that sound is gone. NO, it will NOT stop any other sounds."
Most of you well seasoned CS'ers will already know everything he's listed (I did anyway), but for those of you that are new or haven't paid much attention to the console side of things, it may be worth checking out.

I always have it bound to a key, you never know when aztec will pop up...the ambient/background type sounds in that are far too prominent. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

The command is considered not so much a cheat but its banned by CPL I think, because it also stops ambient sounds that are only initialed at the start of a round (the crickets in Aztec for example) so dont get too used to using it if you will be going to their events.
