Debinarize scripts.pbo

[Mizev 19]

You may not know, but you can debinarize scripts.pbo and create a scripts folder in the root of the game.

To do this, you will need tools:

PBO Manager

or 

ExtractPbo 

 

Now the server will execute scripts not from ..dta\scripts.pbo, and direct from the scripts folder. So you can easily change the server scripts.

This works as long as you do not use the launch parameter -noFilePatching.

this parameter specifically ignores any debinarized files and ONLY loads from the packed pbo.

Why would I use that?

I'm not saying you would, it's just one of the params - was simply stating for clarity sake of anyone reading your informative post. If they run with that param, it will not work.

No negative intended, just adding to the information.

This works for the server. Remove Scripts.pbo is not necessary.

This works for the client, but you will have to disable the verifySignatures = 0 option on the server;
