erykkrol1 10 Posted April 26, 2014 I am trying to create my own Takistan Life Revolution mission file by editing a public mission file. as soon as i make an edit, save it and try to launch it via lan i get this error message (would post link to picture but i am not allowed by the forums) Data file too short '"Mission file name.pbo"' Expected 3068316 B, got 3067887 so i gathered that the 'B' is bytes which is the mission file size but why does it expect a certain size ? I tried verifying my steam integrity but that did not do anything. am i doing some thing wrong with the editing perhaps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ollem 4 Posted April 27, 2014 Check all files in your mission directory. If there is a filename with some characters not recognised by arma (i.e. None english letters) try changing this and try again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope the file name is fine. the problem is when i edit it via notepad ++ then this error occurs. ---------- Post added at 12:39 ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 ---------- SOLVED it turns out i was editing my pbo files incorrectly. my mistake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
