Open the .OBJ, tweak the animation, then export as a XANIM_EXPORT. Compile with the COD mod tools.
Done!
Seriously, there is NO TALENT in doing this. It perhaps shows technical proficiency in running and mastering a program, but that is all. It is literally copy and pasting. I know some particularly daft people in the COD community that can do this, and they think they are God's gift to modding when they've done it. They don't even do anything new with the models. It is literally making a newer game run in an older engine. That is all. I really wish it would stop. I really wish we could get back to the days of creativity, when people were coming up with new ideas.
