-------------------------

Only beta content that causes minimal interference with normal gameplay has been restored. Some things don't have collision, this is intentional. Beta content is taken mostly from Sven, FGH, HAWAII_MAIN_PC, anything.

Thank you. Personally I don’t believe in receiving money for using a few mod tools. If you wish to donate to somebody, please donate to DGIorio. They are the creator of the tools we use for MW12 as well as HP and some for Burnout Paradise. They have been researching the games format and developing these tools for many years and if anyone deserves it, it’s them. Without DGI, mods would be nonexistent. https://ko-fi.com/DGIorio

I would love to donate to you guys, is there a way? Love what you do, love the mod support in general for this game.
I have 2 questions I always wanted to ask a modder, maybe you can answer them:
Why is there no 4K HUD Mod for this game? Same for the skyboxes, why is there no proper upscaling mod? Is it because of file format? Cheers

Dude that is so awesome! Youre doing gods work. Please keep it up, im really looking forward to new updates!

They were never textured in beta. We did it ourselves, that’s mostly why it takes so long for updates. Everything needs to be UV mapped correctly to support final textures. There is also custom modeling work to do which further slows things down. Traffic/races: technically, yes. Feasibly, no. Will I be doing it myself, unlikely.

I have 2 questions: In what build were the beta areas textured? I have only seen videos of them untextured, I thought they never got textured?! Is it possible to add traffic/races to the beta areas? (My logical thinking skills already tell me races are impossible)
