    LOL,

    Yeah it is a complicated way of doing it...I swear I tried everything with the editor, though. Especially for somebody that is a noob to scripting and editing (like myself.)

    It was some problem with the mission.sqm when I would edit it, it would become broken. I tried saving as multiplayer, copying files, merging, and a bunch of other stuff. This is the only way that worked.

    I did just find the setting in the server parameters that was kicking me out of jets too so I'm gtg for the moment.

    I feel like I accomplished something with the hard way...maybe its a start to a future scripter :p

    1st off get Cpbo and get it working from the link above.

    Then place the version of domination you want to edit assuming 2.54 takistan and place into Documents/User/Arma 2/Missions

    Double click the pbo to extract you should now have a folder with the same name as the pbo in your mission folder.

    Load up the game go into the editor and select takistan, load the mission.

    Place the planes you want into the mission wherever you want them to spawn.

    Use Tophes vehicle respawn script or else when they die they are gone.

    Export the mission as a Multiplyer map and host on your own pc or get the new pbo from /program files /arma 2 /missions or steam/steamsapps/common/arma 2/missions.

    When you save it Alt Tab into your documents and make sure all of the correct files are in the folder ie if you rename the mission in the editor it creates a new folder ensure that folder contains all of the domi files in it.

    Yeah I tried all of that stuff and it didn't work. However, I did find a bit of a work around.

    I started with a fresh mission from the editor, and placed all of the vehicles that I wanted in the map. After I had everything I wanted, I saved the new map and closed it.

    Then I opened the new mission.sqm file and the mission.sqm file in the domination map. I cut out the lines that looked like this for the vehicles in the map.

    class Vehicles

    {

    items=70;

    class Item0

    {

    position[]={8332.682,296.04,2050.149};

    azimut=-28.5048;

    id=0;

    side="EMPTY";

    vehicle="CH_47F_EP1";

    lock="UNLOCKED";

    skill=0.6;

    text="ch1";

    };

    class Item1

    {

    position[]={8303.935,296.2253,2034.369};

    azimut=-28.5048;

    id=1;

    side="EMPTY";

    vehicle="UH1H_TK_GUE_EP1";

    lock="UNLOCKED";

    skill=0.6;

    text="ch2";

    I had to adjust the items=xx field to incorporate the new vehicles. Also had to change the Item filed for each new vehicle in the script. Finally I had to change the id=xx field. After I changed all of that stuff and got the brackets and commas in the right place, it worked.

    Now I'm having a different problem. The aircraft that I dropped in the dom map have a 30 min wait time before I can fly them, regardless of the server parameters. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    I would like to suggest stickies "That question has been answered 7,000 times at least here. Not to be rude," on most searched quarries. I know some are put in bold but would like it more easier like New players here ? thread.

    Stickies:

    HowTo: Play downloaded Coop and Single Player maps in the editor and edit them.

    HowTo: All your question and answers (Video, step by step) for Mods.

    HowTo: Play and Host on your own computer with ArmA2.

    This is being done by some great ArmA community players which has helped me a great deal. But needs it's own AREA: New Players Here.

    Alright, I've searched all around for those topics and can't seem to find them. In fact this is the only thread that comes up when I search for those titles. Can't seem to find any tutorials on placing a vehicle into domination mode.

    I basically want to do the same thing...just add starting vehicles into domination mode.

    I can extract the .pbo and put the vehicles in with the editor, but the mission becomes broken when I try to play it. It starts off with all AI, and none of the features of domination mode work. I save as a multiplayer mission file and it no longer works.

    Can somebody explain to me in English what this means, please?

    Place content of this file into same directory where is ARMA2OA.EXE

    note: this is only for these who have A2 and OA directories standalone

    Spoiler:

    show spoiler

    (includes STEAM users, games needs to be combined for A2:CO package)

    Which file is he talking about? All of them.... the .exe...the cmd ?

    I have the steam version and I tried the command file and combined ops won't launch at all. Then I tried the .exe and that didn't seem to work either.
