What he's describing is: he's changed all that from stock, I didn 
something similar on mine...Anyways, one solution would be to write a 
converter to convert all of the .obj files to the new format.
Or you could just nuke the whole world and start from scratch, or just 
sit down and ttry to find every obj in the game and do it by hand (this 
is VERY tedious and time consuming, but works)

any other suggestions as to how to avoid this sort of thing?
