video, I think WW rendered it, well it was rendered, I think

try looking at .txt and mission .MIX, but I won't think this is going to be easy

I remember joining a co-op server and walking among the men from the first mission, listening to Eagle Base Radio and watching them get ambushed =\

So I do believe it isn't a pre-made movie, it's acted out (like Halo cutscenes).

Like LR01 said, doing it would not be easy.

They use .txt files as far as I know. Which basically act as scripted events. C130 drop mods are a form of cinematics.

The movies in between are just .bink files.
