spawnmenu in iNPC settings

well uhh theres another problem. when i give an npc a gun and it tries to shoot it at me (enemy npc) it gives me lua errors and the bullet like isn't "processed" and doesn't fire onle the sound of firing but no damage I take

Override them with ArcCW weapons, uninstall your old addons

i downloaded only the collection addons, nothing else

Then there shouldn't be errors.

but they are, any weapon i give to the npcs they are like shooting blank bullets that don't hurt me, only the sound of firing

also npcs need their weapons to be assigned manually, though I want them to equip random at spawn

FIXED:
Alright I had to download some different tfa weapons and its working.
