Maxwell Replaces Doll

Did you hear a cat just now?

Maxwell the Carryable Cat joins you on your quest to thwart the Combine! Find him in the playground and take him with you on your adventures!
(Just please avoid taking him through the Citadel's material emancipation grill room. You will go to Super Hell if you bring him through there.)

Maxwell replaces the crate baby doll, doll01.mdl in the props_c17 folder, as well as the teddy.wav sound in ambient/creatures.

I tried to make a soundscript to add variation to this with more meows and purring but I don't think the doll prop in the map uses the sound sequence. Another issue is that Maxwell only meows when being picked up in d1_trainstation_02 where the doll appears due to how the logic for its squeak works. If you want to meow on command, bind a key to "play maxwell/meow/meow1.wav" or meow2, meow3, or if you want purring, use "play maxwell/purr.wav"

To spawn more Maxwells, type in console:
"prop_physics_create props_c17/doll01.mdl"

Also replaces the texture for Lamarr's kennel in Kleiner's lab with Maxwell's kennel from the Maxwell the Carryable Cat addon.

UPDATE: Now includes Argemwell and Gnarpwell as selectable skins for Maxwell. Now you can challenge yourself to carry all three through the game. To change Maxwell's skin to them, either spawn a new one or using the one from the playground, open the dev console while looking at the one you want to change, and type:
ent_fire !picker skin 1
to select Argemwell, or:
ent_fire !picker skin 2
to select Gnarpwell.
