ok, i need to edit some odf files, i have a couple of ideas.
can anyone tell me how it is done?

Open it in note pad.

Beyond that, its all pretty straight forward.

that is so awsome of you to tell me this

so,how do i put it back in a rar file,or will it run in notepad form.

i tried to do the same thing, but i dont know how to change it back to the rar file

without buying winrar

It will run from notepad form
idk where you heard you had to put it in rar format

read this to get started on modding and map making, and to find out what you need to get started

once you walk through the tutorial you will have the basics figured out... then download bfbuilder pro (link #2) and go through the tutorial at link 3 to do some quick and easy side mods (including ODFs of course)

***FYI*** winrar lets you use pretty much all the functions without a paid for version, you just have to click 'close' every time when that window pops up when you open it. And at no time during modding do you need to take an ODF and "change it back to the rar file" not sure what you mean there... Good Luck

I wanna know how to make my own weapons.

How do I do this?
