HELP! Addons, and splash screens, and more buildings, OH MY!

[AlbinoDinoFTW 26]

Hello forum dwellers

Recently I had bought a DayZ server (DayZ.st server) and I need help from expierenced server owners who know how to add on, addons. I have also made a splash screen for my server, and more buildings I wanted to add to my server. The big question right now is: HOW THE FRIDGE DO I OPEN .PBO FILES?

(I have the dayz_mission.pbo file and the dayz_server.pbo file waiting on my desktop, I have already tried varius methods and programs of opening them but I never seem to know what I am doing)

I do have more questions after the main one is answered. Okay, here I go...:

(1. Addons: How do I find them and how do I put them on my server?

(2. Splash Screen: How do I make a splash for my DayZ server for people to view whilst joing the server?

(3. More buildings: How do I add more buildings using the 'Edit Database' option? I have no clue how to put them. I get the whole insert part but there is no placement part of it, and when I leave the menu what I did disapears.

I know this is a lot, but if someone can help you can have all of my beans! :beans: :beans: :beans:

My server IP: 50.97.49.79:3323

i use open dayz to get addons google it you will find it

to change the logo you need to unpack the mission pbo go in to descrpition.ext and find this group of code

respawn = "BASE";
respawndelay = 5;
onLoadMission= "DayZ Chernarus";
OnLoadIntro = "Welcome to Chernarus";
OnLoadIntroTime = False;
OnLoadMissionTime = False;
disabledAI = true;
disableChannels[]={0,2,6};
enableItemsDropping = 0;
onPauseScript = "\z\addons\dayz_code\compile\player_onPause.sqf";
loadScreen = "\z\addons\dayz_code\gui\dayz_logo_ca.paa";

edit this

loadScreen = "\z\addons\dayz_code\gui\dayz_logo_ca.paa";

to

loadScreen = "logo.jpg"; or what ever you named your loading screen

if its in a folder do this

loadScreen = "load screen\logo.jpg";

Yeah, (sorry previus guy) you didn't help me at all. I tried to contact you but you didn't respond. So this topic is still active, if anyone knows. Please. Just please, let me build the server I wanted to. You would be a great person if you did help me.
