Improved Mute Manager is a C++ plugin for SvenMod that enhances the original mute manager.
To filter muted players IMM uses their Steam ID instead of using "unique" id of player obtained from cl_enginefunc_t' function GetPlayerUniqueID (it returns player's unique id which is not unique and may collide with id of another player, thus you can mute multiple people when you choose one person to mute). Also you can separately mute voice or chat communications for a specified player.
When you exit the game all muted players will be saved to the file muted_players.bin in the root directory of the game, by logical when you load the mod all muted players will be loaded from aforecited file
First, download and install SvenMod (see readme), then download the plugins's .DLL file and place it in folder Sven Co-op/svenmod/plugins/, then add the plugin to file plugins.txt (See header Adding plugins from SvenMod's readme).
