I reinstalled the leak to see if some errors I was getting were reoccurring and thankfully the only one that stayed was the Citizen problem.
The citizen NPC seems to be missing the 'gesture' or 'activity' for the ranged attack. The error in the console reads as such:
" CBaseAnimatingOverlay::AddGuesture: model models/humans/male_03.mdl missing activity ACT_GESTURE_RANGE_ATTACK1 ".
Is there any way to fix this? Attached is the console readout screen cap.
