1. Drag and drop the SQM file on the decrypter EXE file.

or

2. Copy the SQM file into the same folder as the decrypter EXE and run the program.

This output is a file named MISSION.TXT, which you'll have to rename back to SQM if you want to use it in OFP.

Are there two types of code that are being used? Several times the files do not decompile *** I get #56#46#12#27 *** what’s up with that. ***
And my decompiler is used in DOS mode in command view. ***Where’s this drag and drop program?
I use cmiss-uncomp.exe

ok heres what i do; i depbo a mission from my mp directory and get the mission.sqm file...i make a new folder on my desktop and call it Decrypt.. i put my unpack-sqm.exe file in there and a copy of the mission.sqm file in there... i than drag my mission.sqm to the unpack-sqm.exe utility...and i get this error message: Cant open mission.sqm : No such file or directory at unpack pl. line 38 :confused: :sad:

If the SQM file is already in the same directory as the unpack program, just doubleclick on the unpack EXE.

I've found that this program does not successfully work when run against many a BIS created SQM file.

It's called Windows Explorer. What! You don't have it??

[Bucko]

yeah yeah I have it ***
*** ***
but i think the cmiss-uncomp *** don't work that way.. ***
*** DOS *** ***( ***C:\folder\xx\ cmiss-uncomp thismission.sqm >thismission.txt )
oh one one more thing cut the last three or so lines off the bottom of text file before useing " this file was created by blaw blaw blaw...)

I did find this info:
***
"cmiss-uncomp.exe decompresses BI official format. You need a tool called unpack-sqm.exe to decompress the files exported by the ingame editor."

I now have the file unpack-sqm, *** DL it from another web site..

Bucko out
