Hi can some plz tell me how to apply sounds to
surfaces other than wood (wood is the default sound )

at all when moving around.

..but can you hear the weapons fire? If not then put your .bsp file in the maps/dm folder and load it from there.
These footstep sounds come from the texture's shader. A wood texture has 'surfaceparm wood' written in the shader and a concrete texture has 'surfaceparm stone'. These surfaceparms control which of the sounds are being used when walking over them. All you'd have to do to hear the right steps is just apply the texture and the shader will take care of the rest :wink:
