What do I need to do to get single-player-type NPC's in multiplayer mode?
I've heard it can be done, but I'm not sure how.
Full details would be appreciated ;)
You need a mod to do that, e.g. Jedimod or Jediplus .
The console command ( in case you don't know , you open the console with shift + key left to 1 ) to enable npc spawning on your server is mod_debugcheats 1 .
The cmd /cheataccess x allows client number x to spawn npcs . To find out the numbers enter status . For you it will most likely be /cheataccess 0 .
How to use /g2animent:
note: /g2platoon works the same way but spawns several npc's

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:
corrected the example, typos.
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" )

Are there any other mods that do this?
Jedimod, JediPlus, or any derivative of it won't work on my system. The graphics get fouled up pretty bad.
Here's an example:

Normal's debug mod can do this, but I don't know if it's still available for download.
Do you have Jedimod.pk3 and Jedimod1_2.pk3 in your Jedimod folder?
