Read only???

[Kiptanoi]

I have downloade a mission, and are about to lern how to use editing and so on, and I wanted to see how a mission was build up by someone else, so I opend up this mission in arma 2 (Editor), but it say: Warning: File is read only.

How can I open others mission (Downloaded mission) in editor and see how things are build up?

Can I change that read only to write to?

[.kju [PvPscene]]

most likely wrong position

copy the path to the mission in here

[Kiptanoi]

C:\Users\Name\Documents\ArmA 2\profile name\Missions

And I try to get it in my install dir to:
E:\Game\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\missions

But I cant get it to open in editor.


I can play the mission, but not edit it.

To edit the mission the pbo must be extracted and then the extracted mission with .utes or .mapnamehere at the end must be placed in X:\Users\Name\Documents\ArmA 2\profile name\Missions folder.
Then you go into the editor and click load scroll down to the particular mission and hazza.

If you have played a mission online and want to know how the creator has done something you can go to users\name\Appdata\local\Arma 2\MPMissionsCache and the pbo should be there.

If you need to extract the pbo file use Cpbo, get it from here http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=411 Tools for Armed Assault and Arma 2 by Kegetys
