I just really wish that someone would be able to make really accurate FX for the Ray Gun Mark II and the Vitriolic Withering, because that's a big part of the experience. I know that the RGM2 that TMG has good effects, but the effect of the gun move way to fast and in BO2 the effects flash and blink (for both the RGM2 and the VR) but not in TMG Christmas. Maybe I want to much, but it's a big difference to me, and when the effects and anims don't look good, it feels like I'm playing a makeshift game.

This is also a random question, but is there a way to get all of the BO2 DLC cheap? Legally? I found BO2 for $30, but I can't find anything on DLC...

If Java had true garbage collection, most programs would delete themselves upon execution.

They are in the FFs so as soon as someone reverses the FF format enough to find the address and formatting for the fx files within them, you could technically extract them back out into .efx files I would assume. Same with xanim, xmodel, sounds, and any plaintext files such as csv stringtables, scripts, etc. Only a matter of time, effort, and motivation for someone who has the knowledge to do so - like Tom.

Once you know the formats and what to look for, the process of ripping things from each game varies very little - the only time it takes is figuring out of anything has been moved to a different address or if the format has been updated to accommodate more features. I think Treyarch keeps adding various anti-ripping mechanics to their formats as well but obviously that's not been very effective, lol.

Most of the fx wouldn't work on WaW since the particles systems are very different.
fx that you wanted you'd essentially have to make them yourself.

I think porting fx would be too easy personally, If it was me and I looked at something I made and then I start thinking... well, The guns aren't mine, the fx aren't mine... neither are the sounds... hold the phone over 60% of this new map isn't mine *head desk* *head desk* *head desk*

Ah yeah forgot about this - the new system supports a ton of stuff that WaW doesnt - even BO1 has features that break certain fx in WaW (e.g. Thundergun fx).

Is it possible to edit gun files from maps that I downloaded? Like if I wanted to take the FX from the RGM2 in TMG's Christmas map? Or the anims or model from a certain weapon?

Neither of those things are stored in weaponFiles or can be ripped from custom maps at this time. And don't take things from other community maps... that's taboo.

I know that these question have probably been asked a lot, but did you guys add the BO2 anims for the RGM2? And did you guys add FX on the gun for the Mark2 and the Vitriolic Withering? Would it be possible to add it ourself in 1.1?
