Call of Duty 2: SPi's Weapon Overhaul Mod
Release Version 1.0
Date: June 27, 2023
By SPi
Creation time: 2 weeks.

======================
====== MOD INFO ======
======================

This mod changes all Call of Duty 2 weapons on Singleplayer Campaign to their higher quality counterparts from World At War.

Not all weapons are from World At War since it doesn't have all COD2 weapons and not all World At War weapons are of high quality.

It only changes the models, textures and animations of the weapons.
The majority of the weapon stats remain the same with very few exceptions,
like reload timing to fit the new animations, and a few weapon movement values.

The mod brings the following changes in detail:

1) Weapons:

-M1 Garand from World At War
-M1A1 Carbine from World At War

============================
====== HOW TO INSTALL ======
============================

Copy the folder spiww2
Copy the file spiww2.bat

and paste them both into your Call of Duty 2 folder.

To start the mod, simply run spiww2.bat

spiww2.bat MUST be in the same folder where
CoD2SP_s.exe is located otherwise it won't work.

If you're on steam, and the bat file doesn't work,
set launch options on steam and add this command:
+set fs_game spiww2

For any issues with the mod, don't hesitate to
contact SPi in his discord server here:

the links provided were working.

========================
====== KNOWN BUGS ======
========================

Keep in mind that the mod isn't perfect.

There may be many minor animation bugs and glitches if you look closely.

The gun ports couldn't be perfect because:
1) I am not an animator. All I do is mess with keyframes and bone rotations to fix obvious animation problems.
2) All of WAW weapon animations are designed for 65 FOV and anything above that may and will look off in most cases.

I tried my best to minimize these bugs but if one looks closely, they may still be present.

That is mainly because World At War animations are made the way they were made.

So please show some understanding if you find any odd looking things on the weapons.
