OH MEH GEE!
This has fixed so many things....
This has fixed vehicle pose parameters, Third person player view, and npc
jitter. Just have to see what other players look like, but If they are
recieving a networked animtime should it matter if it is changed right
before network update?

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
single value and unchanged. I assume because there is no npc animation

on the client. The only C_AI_BaseNPC is a few minor things.
