There's only 1 way to that, but maybe gonna take much work and time.
Creating animations, BSP's, shaders, and bitmaps. Maybe more than 2 weeks or A MONTH! |

Whatever happened to this "avi to sequenced-bitmap converter" that someone from years ago mentioned?

considering 1 frame = about 500kb and 30 frames per second, do the math.

500*30= 15000 kb per second.
Usually the things are around 3 mins? 1 min = 15000*60 = 900000 3 min = 900000*3 = 2700000 kb. |

plus if think of the tag work youd have to do... ridiculous...
and tool wont allow for that many texture pages if you did use them. |
