[CVC] Base

Hello, the first thing to kown is, this addon not work alone. Content creators must modify the relevant addons to make them compatible.

/!\ Warning /!\
This addon modify the function "entity:GetModel()", if you have an addon who modify this function too, they two addons will be incompatible !
/!\ Warning /!\

With this addon you can customize certain sounds that npc_citizen can emit, here are the options:
1 - Choose a base voice (male or female or none)
2 - Choose a additional footstep sound (like metropolice, combine...)
3 - Choose a Custom Voice (it is limited by the sounds that the npc_citizen can say)(multi-language support)
4 - Ensure that the sounds not parameterized are not played (for Custom Voice)
5 - Choose the squad name (you will be why, this option is there, in the section that explains how the addon works)


How does this addon work ?
When a npc_citizen is "created", addon check a keyvalue called "squadname".
That with "squadname" this addon modify and add certain value, so that the other hooks can return the correct sounds to the npc. (the fifth option is there to fix the fact that we use this value to configure the npc_citizen)

How do I make it work for my npc_citizen ?
When you are in your lua file for add your new npc_citizen in the NPC list, add this in KeyValues:
SquadName = "option1 option2 option3 option4 option5"
(only one space between each option, it's important)

Replace option1 by one of this:
CVC_BaseVoice_None
CVC_BaseVoice_Male
CVC_BaseVoice_Female

Replace option2 by one of this:
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_None
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_Antlion
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_HeadCrab
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_Dog
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_FastZombie
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_MetroPolice
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_CombineSoldier
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_Stalker
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_Vortigaunt
CVC_AdditionalFootStepSound_Zombie
(new footstep sounds can be added, whether by me or by you)

Replace option3 by one of this:
CVC_CustomVoice_None
CVC_CustomVoice_Male01
CVC_CustomVoice_Female01
(new voices can be added, whether by me or by you)

Replace option4 by one of this:
CVC_MuteOnMissingSound_On
CVC_MuteOnMissingSound_Off

For option5 it's up to you to see what you want, just start with "CVC_RealSquadName_", no space with the name you are going to give. (exemples: CVC_RealSquadName_Squad_1 , CVC_RealSquadName_exemple_squad)
