needs more rend2

found I can call any facial animation via script but would need a bunch of talk animations & SET_ANIM_HEAD added along side SET_ANIM_UPPER & LOWER

Adding new SET_ functions is really easy, check out Q3_Interface, or just search for "SET_ANIM_" and it'll give you some idea.

For the facial animations, that's where mocap comes into play. That's a pretty primitive and SLOW approach. But until a definitive approach is ironed out, there's not much that can be done.
