How do I unpack ArmA 2 multiplayer .pbo files?

[finguide 1]

Hi and thanks for help in advance.

My question is simple: How do I unpack multiplayer .pbo files, like a version of Domination that I downloaded from Armaholic? I've tried all pbo extractors and unpackers that I've been able to find, but they all terminate themselves or give some "missing file" "file not found" etc. errors even if I've done everything like the readme or help files say. I've also tried some weird techniques that have worked for others with no success. My OS is XP. I've tried eg. cPBO, Eliteness, A2cPBO_UI etc. etc., none of them work or I just can't use them... I'm extremely confused and frustrated, _please_ help me.

The reason why I want to unpack .pbos is that I simply just wanna take a look how the MP missions are made/built to learn scripting myself.

Regards

Some PBOs are encrypted and can't be opened, I'm fairly certain that some versions of Domi are like that. You can download the source of Domi and make a new version from that. BAF and PMC are also PBOs you can't open.
