PRL '81: Winter Citizens and Refugees

IMPORTANT FIND - I am happy to announce that, at least according to my initial testing, if you have my PRL Menu Backgrounds Mod installed locally (meaning a .vpk file placed in hl2/custom folder) the "bad reference count" error is avoided! Which makes sense, since that mod basically prevents the background maps from loading altogether. Instructions on how to install the mod locally are in that mod's description.

This mod changes the default HL2 Citizen and Refugee models with ones made to resemble the looks and aesthetics of the Polish Citizens from the Martial Law Period.

!!Annoying Bug!! - For some reason (at least on my pc) the male_01 corpse at the beginning of map d1_canals_12, d2_coast_04 has missing textures, and spams the console with "bad reference count when being bound" error. After many attempts, I see no permanent fix to that, besides typing the command " ent_create npc_citizen model models/humans/group01/male_01.mdl ". For some reason spawning the citizen that way fixes the issue. What's even stranger, is that it seems to have a connection to what menu map background was loaded (seems like only the plaza and streetwar background maps are causing this).

The more permanent fix to that is to create a local copy (vpk file) of the mod and place it in the hl2/custom folder, since it seems that the workshop manager somehow breaks the mod otherwise.

Credit goes to the following creators:
-Quilboar and Svotnik, for making the Post-Apocalyptic Citizens, which served as a base and where the citizen's hands come from
-Half_Dead, for making the Metro Last Light Citizens and Casual Civilians Hack Pack, where the majority of the bodygroups come from
-Shadows and Cra0kalo, for making the Jessica Sherawat Winter where the female furcap and furcoat come from
-TFNeraZe, for making the DC Catwoman Pack, where the female winter boots come from
