-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Ok, off the top of my head.. The human NPCs and the human(oid) players share the same animation files. HL2MP changes the animations to HL2MP animations.. because it doesn't need NPCs. This means that the NPCs animations are broken in HL2MP based mods. If you run from a bare HL2 installation the NPC animations should work but the player's will be in the Jesus pose. I solved this in Garry's Mod by copying the player animations to a different filename and hex editing the player models so they use those animations. This left the NPC's to use the default HL2 animations. If it still doesn't work I'd look in your mod's model folder. Maybe rename it to make sure that nothing in there is messing you around. A good thing to do would be to spawn a bot. If it's animated properly then you're still using the HL2MP animation files. The NPC's are useless without the animations because they fire events off and time all their actions. Apart from that there were some weird things happening with the NPCs. They would fire their gun but no bullet came out. They wouldn't bleed. Other such things. It's a good idea to get things working in single player first and then find out what's broken in MP.
