RE-EM 10 Posted January 3, 2011 Hi , I'm new to the forums and mission editing in Arma 2 OA. I've got a few questions and I've been looking for answers for a while, but it seems that I've got bad luck. So I came across this forum and I'm about to ask you a few questions : 1. Is there anyway to edit the default CTI missions (CTI 16 Mountain Warfare and CTI 24 Mountain Warfare),I mean add some scripts and change parameters? 2. If editing of the default CTI missions is available, is there anyway to script AI to help them buy and use aircraft ? 3. If editing of the default CTI missions is available, is there anyway to add civilians? Please answer all the questions, as these questions are concerning me most. Thanks !

zigzag 0 Posted January 3, 2011 You can open missions with the pbo tools that are available, then open the mission with the editor and edit the mission, so 1 and 3 is easy. question 2 is probably possible but I cant help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RE-EM 10 Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Thank you for your reply! Could you tell me the names of those tools? it would be very great! :bounce3: BTW whats the location of the CTI maps? I can't seem to find them Edited January 3, 2011 by RE-EM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zigzag 0 Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Search for "pbo tool" here or google would give you the answer. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=109989 Edit: You can find a pbo file that is called missions Edited January 3, 2011 by zigzag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RE-EM 10 Posted January 4, 2011 Yay I found a ''tool'' that opens pbo's it's called ''Eliteness''. Could anyone provide me with further steps. I've opened missions.pbo file which is found in C:.../Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead\Common , but where is any of the CTI maps ? All I see is different files that contain scripts for configurations for every mission. How do I edit particularly CTI 24 Mountain Warfare ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tally 10 Posted January 6, 2011 2. Edit Config_Teams.sqf and create some AI air teams. Find the list for AI commander team choices and put your new AI air team in to one of the slots. Start off with some choppers. Not sure if you have an airport setup, so fixed wing aircraft may need some more editing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fecoka 10 Posted April 7, 2011 Hi all, I tried to change the vehicles in my warfare mission, edited the Config_teams.sqf file and insert this line to InitCommon.sqf file: [] Call Compile PreprocessFile "Common\Config\Config_Teams.sqf"; And now the AI don't want to buy vehicles, and everybody just walk on foot. Anyone can help me why this thing doesn't work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
