Re: Recreating the MW2 levels

I have scripts that extract the levels, but the extraction does not fully work, so I have to adjust the object positions and colorize things. I recreate the skies by using screenshots as textures. One thing that helps a lot is taking screenshots from satellite view and putting them together to form ...
