If you're using metamod, then try disabling it. If, after you disable metamod, you have stomp/devour/metabolize, then that's the culprit. You need Metamod 1.17 for NS 2.X, Metamod 1.16.2 does not have the entities listed for weapon_stomp,weapon_devour and weapon_metabolize.
hmm, i should have posted that we figured out metamod is the culprit. but there must be a way to set it up. we need metamod to use unstuck, and those other nice toys. as soon as we use metamod 1.17, 1.15, or 1.16 the aliens stuff goes wonky. we've tried to rebuild it and redownload everything already. any suggestions?

Metamod 1.17 shouldn't be causing these issues. 1.16.2 (iirc) has NS 2.0 entities in it as well, so that one shouldn't affect it.
You can try MetamodX (An unofficial, updated build of Metamod) which Amx Mod X supplies. It's available <a href='http://www.amxmodx.org/metamodx.php' target='_blank'>here</a>. If it's still giving you issues, try unloading <i>all</i> metamod plugins, but leave metamod itself there. If after that, the weapons work properly, then it would be a plugin issue, although there are no plugins I know of which have symptoms you are describing.
