FIXED, USE ONE OF THE TWO PLUGINS BELOW
Magic's version
Shadowysn's version


With the help of some plugins, you are able to change survivor sets in campaigns, normally swapping the L4D2 survivors will result in little to no glitches, swapping the L4D1 survivors with L4D2 survivors will result in 3 glaring issues; such as
• Incorrect arms (Ellis' arms being Francis', Nick's arms being Bill's etc)
• Incorrect bot names (Bot names will appear as their L4D1 counterparts (Nick is Bill, Ellis is Francis, Rochelle is Zoey, Coach is Louis)
• Incorrect icons (see above)

- That plugin could use SetClientName to change the bot names to the appropriate ones.
- Arms should be correct when changing the survivor netprop, do you have another plugin setting player skins or something?
- Icons should be correct too, except the tab scoreboard, that seems to be a clientside issue.

You should report this to that thread.

Lux's been inactive for about 3 months or so. I doubt I'll get a response.

it's client-side problem, if you modify the script of maps "survivor_set" to 2, add install both on server and client side, it will be solved. but it's not pretty good cause many player don't want to install them.

Is there no plugin to emulate survivor arms or such?

I don't see any hope so... I would say no.
