Blackbuck 9 Posted July 10, 2007 Once you've downloade an addon you will most likely need Win Rar to open the archive with. Then take the .pbo file from the archive and put it into you addons folder. "C:\Program Files\Codemasters\Operation Flashpoint\addons". Then it SHOULD work unless there are any dependencies. In the future I would suggest using the Search button to find an answer as it seems a question that would have been asked many times beore in the heyday of OFP. Hope that was some help HH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pulverizer 1 Posted July 10, 2007 Read the documention, such as readme.txt, that comes with the particular addon or mod. For some random addons it's best to use mod folders to not mess up your ofp install. Use search for more info on how to make and use them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Use search for more info on how to make and use them. lol, you could have said to him to create a mod folder: - create a folder, with a name (ww2; some mods have already a name @Tonalredux for example) - copy/paste your ofp shortcut and in the properties write something like that in the target line: "C:\Program Files\Codemasters\OperationFlashpoint\FLASHPOINTRESISTANCE.EXE" -nomap -nosplash -mod=@ECP;@Tonalredux;ww2;etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sennacherib 0 Posted July 10, 2007 it's maybe my fault in your mod folder, you must create a folder with this name: Addons the you put your addons in the folder addons. example: @Tonalredux\addons\bobthesponge.pbo same thing if you want to use independant anims you must create the folder mod a new folder data @Tonalredux\data\anim.pbo i hope that could help you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
