I don't see why, but although changing it to if((isNPC() &&
IsSelfAnimating()) || !IsSelfAnimating()) doesn't work, simply
if(IsSelfAnimating()) does it just for me fine! Not looked into player
effects yet, though.

Didn't seem to do much.
I tried net_fakelag 25 and it did look perfect. But I don't think having a
mod running listen servers with fake lag is a smart move.

Hey there.. the default NPC jitter can be fixed with this :
line 1920 of c_baseentity
if (!IsSelfAnimating()) to if(IsSelfAnimating())
Although I think you can remove it entirely as this ended up having
adverse effects when trying to actually do self animating entities
(like properly predicting players), perhaps you could do
if((isNPC() && IsSelfAnimating()) || !IsSelfAnimating())
Let me know if that has any effect on your problem

That did not help much. Now the pose parameters appear to be stuck at a
