What, where, how, why[edit]

this is a real-world article rather than an in-universe article. It is missing a bit of the basic facts about CMV - what does it stand for, how does it do what it does? It does explain why.

I gather "CCMV compression" is a tautology - like "ATM machine" meaning "automatic teller machine machine" I am guessing "CCMV compression" means "compressed CMV (file) compression"?

If I knew what CMV stood for I'd write it into the article. I felt this was definitely a missing page; there are pages like Init.txt which fall into a similar category, its useful information outside of the game mechanics, I'm not sure where the article should go. Afaik the additional C on CCMV means compressed, the word 'compression' following CCMV is a mistake. --Markavian
