bmgarcangel 0 Posted February 4, 2004 I'm curious as to if people know what the dtaext.pbo folder contains. You know the information for weapons in the gear section and magazines that BIS weapons have, all the information is in the dtaext.pbo folder. People have said its impossible to make your own information for mod made weapons and such. But all we require is too look up the code in the cpp. for the BIS weapons. I have found the cpp. that they use for there addons, but I need help in getting it from bin to cpp. Now I assume that they use a command in the cpp. for the information for the weapons. If not where else would they put it? I would think that they would in the cpp. So, is there any programs that I can convert a bin to a cpp.?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JdB 151 Posted February 5, 2004 What kind of information are you talking about? PBO Decrypter 1.3 can do that (if you can find a download link for it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmgarcangel 0 Posted February 5, 2004 no dude I've already unpboed dtaext.pbo, but the config isn't in any of those files, its always somewhere else with BIS addons. What I need to do is unbin a bin file so I can find the cpp code that makes it so that you can have some information with guns. Hunter, you know with BIS guns, they have that area in the gear section, right below the picture of the gun you will be using, there is a I inside a little square, click on that you get some information.

kegetys 2 Posted February 5, 2004 You cant add new info texts in addons, since the only place the game looks for the texts is in the dtaext.pbo, which means you need to modify that if you want to add new texts... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmgarcangel 0 Posted February 5, 2004 Which means like our mod and stuff, if we want to do that, then we have to create our own dtaext.pbo file and put it in our dta folder in our mod folder hey. sounds sweet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or change the link to the file (which means editing the engine I think ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmgarcangel 0 Posted February 6, 2004 Dude, changing the link to it would be stupid when the way I just described would be easier. Man Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
