He said multiple npc's not multiplayer npc's .

 

Dane maybe you can find info here http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38255 .

And actually you can spawn npc's in mp by using /g2animent . It's included in several mods.

 

Example: Jedimod 1.2

 

/mod_debugcheats 1

-Can use cheats like /g2animent to spawn stormtroopers. First you must use the cheataccess

command with your client number to give yourself access to these cheats. So if you were the

server in non dedicated mode you would do /cheatacces 0 in console to give client 0 (you)

access to the cheats. You could then do /g2animent to spawn a stormtrooper There is also

/g2platoon to spawn a group of stormtroopers (from the readme file)

g2animent

 

This will spawn a pseudo-entity, that, on certain maps, will have an AI. These will act like single-player NPCs. We had some fun spawning dozens of them at the same time. =)

 

[edit]The spawned NPCs also seem to be force resistant (you can see this in a couple screenshots, the yellow spheres)[/edit]

 

How to use g2animent:

 

Basic NPC Spawning:

g2animent 0

^ spawns Stormtrooper

g2animent 1

^ spawns Rodian

g2animent 2

^ spawns Jan

 

Custom NPC Spawning:

After I re-read the custom NPC spawning code, I found out what I was doing wrong, here's how to do it.

 

g2animent 3 <alignment> <weapon> <model filename & path> <sound path>

 

Example:

[edit]corrected the example, typos.[/edit]

g2animent 3 2 2 "models/players/luke/model.glm" "sound/chars/luke/misc"

^ Would spawn an NPC allied to you, using Luke's Model & Sounds, with a Light Saber.

 

 

alignment:

0 - Unknown alignment, probably makes it attack everyone

1 - Evil alignment, attacks you & players

2 - Good alignment, attacks evil NPCs.

 

weapon (updated):

0 - None

1 - Stun Baton

2 - Light Saber

3 - Bryar Pistol

4 - Blaster

5 - Disruptor

6 - Bowcaster

7 - Repeater

8 - DEMP2

9 - Fletchette

10 - Rocket Launcher

11 - Thermal Grenades

12 - Trip Mines

13 - Det Packs

14 - Emplaced Gun (?? -- Probably not safe to use)

^ from reading another post, this seems to give you the ability to "box" with your hands.

15 - Turret (?? -- Probably not safe to use)

 

model:

path & filename of a model using the humanoid animations,

eg: models/players/luke/model.glm

 

DO NOT USE MODELS THAT YOU KNOW DO NOT USE THE HUMANOID ANIMATIONS! It'll result in a crash, (I tried to spawn a protocol droid with a lightsaber.. baaad results!)

 

sound path:

Path to the sound set that will be used,

eg: sound/chars/luke/misc

 

 

 

Modellist:

bespin_cop ( "models/players/bespin_cop/model.glm" )

chiss

desann

droids

galak

galak_mech

glider

gonk

guys i ment in single player

[00M-187]

Just type your command

press the up arrow and it will show your last commands

so just press up and enter right after each other and you can spawn fast!

[teleguy]

Or bind a key to it like:

 

bind x npc spawn Stormtrooper

 

then just press that key several times .
