I used these steps to do this: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=757

On the unpacking part of the file, do I just copy and paste my .sqf file into the folder and pack it? Or do I need to edit the .sqm file or something. If you can give me a video or just post pictures it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!

The above link is very useful but the program it links to isn't (especially if you're new to all this stuff). I'd recommend using PBO manager (http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=16369) as this creates an opion in your rightclick menu.

 

After installing pbo manager download your pbo file and then right click on it. Choose pbo manager in the menu and 'extract to dayz_xxxx.chernarus'. This will create a nice neat folder, in the same location as the pbo, that you can then go into to find the files you need and edit them.

 

When you're finished editing and have saved your edits all you need to do is right click on the folder and find 'pbo manager' in the menu (it is now down the bottom somewhere) and select 'pack into dayz_xxx.chernarus.pbo'. this will pack it all up and create a backup of the previous version of the pbo (which lets face it you've done already anyway right ... right?). Upload, restart server and find the magic you have created in game :)

 

Oh and the xxxx in the pbo name up there ^^^^ is your instance number
