How to modify existing SP missions?

Archived from groups: alt.games.operation-flashpoint (More info?)

Dear Group,

Can anyone suggest an available mission editor type of tool to easily modify
existing SP missions?
I would like to be able to change weapons options (because of all the
available addon weapons), and make some change/add in
crew/vehicule's/enemy's,:
I find it very anoying not to be able to use all those beautifull addon
weapons, without having to build my own mission
furthermore many of the SP mission I found on the web, simply do not run due
to some missing addon problems, parameters, etc,
I know there is several ways to extract the PBO files and do some manual
progamming, but it would be nice if there is an easy to use drag and drop
interface to load an existing mission, change the parameters, run it for
faults (missing) and save/play it ( similar to the build in editor but than
for modify)
any suggestions?

Kind Regards,
Toolman

Down load dePBO from:- http://ofp.gamezone.cz/utilities/pbo_decryptor15.zip
Use dePBO to unpack your chosen mission PBO then place the folder that
it creates into your flashpoint/user/yourname/mission folder, it will
then be accessible in the mission editor. I have found that if missions
that have custom sound files in them (eg Warcry & Battlefields)lose the
sounds if simply saved to single player missions within the editor, one
either has to manually copy and paste the files back into the mission if
saved like that or turn the unpacked mission folder back into a PBO file
with MakePBO ( http://ofp.gamezone.cz/utilities/makepbo_11.zip )
