[HELP NEEDED] PBOView

[Andrew Montgomery]

Alright, I just downloaded my dayz mission.pbo from DayZ.st and when I try to open it with PBOView it says

Length cannot be less than zero.
Parameter name: length

But it doesn't do that with other PBOs like the dayz_server.pbo
Any suggestions? I really wanna add some stuff to my server!

 

[Kind-Sir]

Rename your mission file to a smaller name, such as dayz_mission.pbo
If that doesn't work, try moving the directory it's in.

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

tried both and it didn't work, I think it has something to do with dayz.st's mission because my other dayz missions work, but the other dayz missions i try get stuck at Authenticating screen when I play the server

 

[machine]

i also use pbo view and .st they work fine for me though. I would delete what you have and try downloading the defaults again and downloading pbo view again as well. Something may be corrupted.

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

I've done that machine, still doesn't work

 

[Kind-Sir]

What map are you doing this for? Have you contacted DayZ.ST telling them that your mission is not loading?

I'll make a thread involving zipped packages of missions files for each map, which are bare-minimum. That way if your mission gets botched, you can always download another one.

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

It's for Chernarus, yes i've contacted dayz.st but they haven't responded, and thanks

 

[Kind-Sir]

Okay, attached is a bare-minimum zip file of the DayZ Chernarus mission.
It includes both the packed .pbo and the files included in the .pbo.

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

Thanks Kind-Sir, if I have any problems you mind if I PM you?

 

[Kind-Sir]

Go ahead and message me anything you'll need.

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

Whenever I put the mission on dayz.st and restart it, I open up the game and get stuck at "Waiting for Authentication" how can I fix that?

 

[BertxSmash]

Andrew Use Pbomanager even if its not as good it will work Also heres the dayz.st default mission.pbo

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

It still won't let me open it, something weird going on with dayz.st's mission file for me.

Try a program other than PBO View, or look for PBO View version 0.8 (I use that version, works fine for me)

If not, redownload PBO View here: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=1434

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

Can you upload version 0.8 for me, the site it's on is down for maintenance. Also, I redownlaoded it and it still doesn't work

 

[Kind-Sir]

Here you are!

 

[Andrew Montgomery]

Thanks, but it's still not working. I've tried other programs as well, but they didn't work. Would restarting my computer MAYBE help?

Do i have to restart my computer after updating?

I don't believe so.
Try it out, if it doesn't work, give your computer a nice, warm restart.
