The ear-ringing effect can supposedly be toggled off with:

// Reset any player explosion/shock effects
CLocalPlayerFilter filter;
enginesound->SetPlayerDSP(filter, 0, true);

but this doesn't seem to do anything... Hmm.

Opted to work around the DSP problem by carrying roundnum info within the CTakeDamageInfo custom field.

I think it does work but its just slow, testing by throwing a grenade at an angle of 31.5, muffled gunfire goes away faster if setting the dsp to 0 in the player prethink function. The facepunch wiki suggests the fastReset only works clientside but I'm not seeing much difference between it set to off and on

Hmm, interesting. Maybe it'd be cleaner to use the DSP then, after all. Well, I'll play around with it some more and see what works best.

[AdamTadeusz]

I haven't found a way to make it instant so this pr might still be the only instant solution, unless we want to enforce dsp_off during freezetime for example
