Editing A Mission

Recommended Posts

I have unPBO the mission, placed it in \My Documents\ArmA 2 Other Profiles\<ArmA2playername>\missions.

For some reason I am unable to open the mission with the editor though. I did notice that a mission I was working on from scratch has a mission.sqf and a mission.biedi file. The mission I want to open has a mission.sqm

I could use some help please.

If you have usually mission.sqf and mission biedi, you probably worked with the 3D editor. If a mission has a mission.sqm, they are from the 2D editor.

That is an incorrect statement. I have done a mission in 3d editor and 1 in 2d editor only and still I get mission.sqf and mission.bied

What I need to know is what do I need to be able to edit a mission.sqm

Then your ArmA 2 is probably different from mine since i get mission.sqm files when saving user missions in 2D editor.

To make it clear: 2D Editor is the one to be found at Singleplayer >> Editor while the 3D Editor is opened from main menu using ALT + E.

While the 3D Editor also have 2D view, the 2D Editor doesn't have a 3D editor part.

So coming back to your question: to work on missions with mission.sqm file you have to open the 2D editor.
