Map NPC Replacer

Open from Utilities > Map NPC Replacer Menu > Open Map NPC Replace Menu

Aim to replace combine soldiers that spawned by map to random models you selected, since most maps are against the Combine.
Mainly replace their model, and option to replace them to SNPC (WIP).
Combine soldier replacement part tested out not breaking Half-Life2 original map's scenarios.

Features:
- GUI to select replacement models for human type NPC and zombie type NPC.
- Select multiple models to enable random replacement.
- Ability to customize skin, bodygroup, and submaterial of replacement models.
- Define replacement NPC's weapon.
- Save preset for list of replacement models.
- Replacement models list are generate from your SpawnMenu NPC list, the more NPC addons you subscribed the more selectable models in the list.
- Scenario Stuck Prevention that only replce NPC that play a role in map scenario to the models which have the same animation set, or leave them untouch.

How to use:
・Open GUI from Utilities > Map NPC Replacer Menu > Open Map NPC Replace Menu
・Select replacement models for each type of NPC and check to checkbox in the front, click SAVE button for each type of NPC after checkbox checked.
・Replacement models to be selected can add by subscribing NPC addons, NOT replacement addons. If you want to use models from replacement addons, try to find their NPC version, or enable [default models to show up randomly too] option and check their checkbox in the list.
・To prevent player-spawned NPCs from being randomized, you need to re-check "Enable for Player spawned too" every time a new map is loaded.
・Combine's replcement models that have the same animation set as a combine can be found in [Combine Anim] tab, select replacements from that tab only can prevent almost any scenario break, but Scenario Stuck Prevention also check and select models from that tab only to replace if they play a role in map scenario.

Known Issues:
-Since workshop didn't have much zombie type NPC addons, zombies replacement are mainly to SNPC.
-Main character use unique animation set and scripts, so main character replcement are not an option in this project so far, I have ways but like zombie type NPC, main character NPC are so rare.
-Due to Engine litmit you can not replace NPC to any model you want, but to any SNPC you want although the SNPC might not performances properly.
-You might see some NPC not being replaced because those NPCs might play a role in map scenario, they can only replace to the models which have the same animation set(Scenario Stuck Prevention).
