Getting a Mod from Github to run?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I´m new here. I don´t know if this the right Forum for my question. I´m sorry if not.

So my question is:

I found a C-5 Galaxy Mod on Github and downloaded it. But there´s no addons folder with a pbo file. How can I get this mod to run. Do I have to pack the files into a pbo file by myself? I already tried that but I couldn´t place the model in Arma. Or do I have to do something completely different?

 

I´m thankfull for every help and idea.

These are more or less the raw data files. You can make a pbo with those files (best way is downloading the arma 3 tools via steam).

Hoo boy, that code needs plenty of modernizing, not to mention at least some more added Linux compatibility ...

I tried to pack them with the arma 3 tools. It kinda worked. The Model showed up in the asset viewer in the Editor. But I couldn´t place it.

I packed everything from the mod into the pbo. Maybe that was the problem. Do i have to exclude something from the pbo?

Don't know, have not take a look into it. Could be. Or the Config has to be adjust.

This and other aircraft were removed from the USAF mod due to various issues which were never fixed.
