Half-life source npc spawning

[W4d5Y]

^does that even work??? I only know impulse 76 to spawn grunts, but even that doesn't work as far as I know. Soooo, I'd love to create some hl:s based vids, but...well, I just thought spawning npcs was easier since it is a source port, but, yeah well I just didn't find anything on the net. :'(

I managed to spawn a g-man once, long time ago, but I haven't been able to do it since.

Use npc_create as usual.

monster_barney - Barney
monster_scientist - Scientist
monster_human_grunt - Human Grunt
monster_alien_grunt - Alien Grunt
monster_alien_slave - Vortigaunt
monster_zombie - Headcrab Zombie
monster_gman - Misunderstood servant of the people.
