How do you play half life story mode coop without sven coop I know you can use console commands to change a servers map but when i do this the npcs arn't there Is there a way to get the npcs there?

To play Half-Life's story mode in co-op without Sven Co-op, you can use the "HLSP" mod, which allows for cooperative play while keeping NPCs in the game. You'll need to install the mod and set up a dedicated server or a local game. To ensure NPCs are present when changing maps, make sure you use the correct map commands that support the mod's NPC spawning system, as simply changing maps without the mod may not load them properly. Always check the mod's documentation for specific commands and settings.
