Its practically harmless using sounds re jigged to work in COD. Nobody is profiting from it financially. so please lets not go down that route. But doo seek permission where ever possible and consider not releasing what you want because of these issues.

I havent commented on sounds as of yet. but i will now. i think you've all got a screw loose by wanting to use these silly sounds fudged to work in the system we currently have. the sounds require sampling. ie creating the sample. and then making it/them work properly. just dumping some tweaked real recordings in there is not good enough by any standards. You are not doing the simulation any justice and Luthier really is not interested one little bit.
