(Pre-TLS) Survivor Swap (Dedicated Server Version)

Description
NOTICE: This does not have any voice replacing! The method of replacing the talker files used by Rayman will not work for dedicated servers.
Replacing the sound files directly CAN be done, but due to the differences of files in number, length, etc. and the sound system having quite a problem with sounds that don't match the cache's defined length, it would be quite difficult and time-consuming to match up the sounds with the cache-length and still have it sound good.

There's also the issue of names not being swapped. This is an unfortunate workshop problem that affects ALL addons that change a survivor name in some way.
You have to go into the workshop subfolder and put this addon into the main addons folder.

A version of Survivor Swap made to function for users in dedicated servers.
This addon does not have the bugged-anim state glitch that Rayman's does.

Unforunately, it still replaces models. It is impossible to replace the survivors with the opposite's models without directly replacing them, mission files, mutations or Sourcemod.
Even then, only the first method works for a person that joins a dedicated server.

Credits:
Rayman1103 for his original swap addon. I used some of his stuff for this version. (Icon swapping, anything that is not the main survivor models.)

Arby26[www.gamemaps.com] for the improved L4D1 survivor hands.[www.gamemaps.com]
I may have potentially gotten confused. It's been a long time since I first made this addon in private.
The L4D1 survivor's hands could be this addon.

I have since forgotten what survivor fix I used for the models, but it could possibly be this.

Custom models won’t work, but color changes of the current model will.

And unfortunately, only the models have worked for now.
For voices to work online, I'd have to directly edit the sound files for the voices.

If I just drag-and-drop the opposite's voices in, voices would suddenly cut-off, have this god-awful BEEP sound, or sometimes sound like their original characters.
I'd have to edit all of the sound files one-by-one to make them not bug out and sound good.
