Intel.And no I was thinking new assist is also intel mac ompatible

I can compile a Intel version of Assist for the Beta, or there is even in the newer version of the complier I'm using there are 3 modes for Mac, PowerPC, Intel and Universal.

Might be so that Universal works on both types?

And once again, do you know if there is FPS issues running AA on Intel Macs, or does it fun just fine?

No, the aa binary is powerpc, it runs on intel macs using an emulator. building a universal or intel version of assist will not change anything, it will just cause problems.
you need to bootcamp into windows or linux to play properly on an intel mac.

Here are the files for 7.14 Beta(Testversion3)

https://sourceforge.net/projects/aa25assist/files/Binaries/714Beta/

These files will be avalible until 9:th Dec 16:00 CET(2 days from release)
After that it 7.14Beta will be disabled, and will stop working.


When testing this release, if you are kicked note the time and date, and report back to this thread.
we have added quite a few CVARs and other checks, so it might detect something that it did not use to.

7.14 clients will only be able to connect 7.14 servers
I'll try to have a server running named Assist 7.14 Test Server

but feel free to test the server functions of 7.14 if you like.

Should I uninstall actual Assist application?

I'm on TS if you mind to join

I recommend you copy this to a new location, and leave the old where it is.
I also recommend you create the folder 25Assist in the same location as 25Assist.exe, so that AA will be downloaded as a new copy, this way it will not interfere in any way with your old installation.

I'll join the ts chat in 30 mins, I have to get something to eat.

Just tested it out as a fresh install. All seems to be going good. The worst thing I saw was that the authentication message showed up twice but that's it.

There's a few ideas & suggestions I'd like to run by:
America's Army Assist Setup Dialog Box:
- Capitalize the A in "army"

Main SITREP page:
- Remove all text after "Click HERE" for wrong honor.
- Remove Battletracker text and button. Create a "Help" or "?" button next to login that pops up a dialog box that says "A Battletracker.com account is required to play America's Army through Assist. Click the "Register" button to create an account. After you create an account, you will have to set your desired AA username in the "Tracker Settings" section of Battletracker." Then have 2 buttons, one takes you to register an account at Battletracker and the other takes you to Tracker Settings. http://battletracker.com/forum/index.php?page=Register and http://battletracker.com/index.php?form=TrackerSettings
- Remove PB service message. People that need help will most likely either click the help tab anyway or just go to the forum. I think the "FIX" button pretty much says all it needs to.


Ideas:
- While downloading AA, it would be nice to have a pause option in-between the steps so you can pause after the current step is done.
- Update map images to the ones currently in Dropbox, there's resized ones and 720p ones. Clicking on the screenshot in Assist would enlarge it to a full size 720p version. To take this a step further, have the screenshot loaded from AAO25.com so Assist doesn't have to be updated for new screenshots. Maybe just have Assist look for http://aao25.com/images/%mapname%.png or something.



*EDIT*
Also, what about a news alert kind of thing? Where Assist could pull forum posts from this site and display them in Assist to alert people of polls or information?

Imho the good idea is a tab in Assist application with info from main AAO25.com website.

Assist could load a static page on AAO25 that queries the news board and pulls the latest post. There's all kinds of options that can be done:

<?php ssi_showPoll($topicID); ?>
<?php ssi_news(); ?>
<?php ssi_boardNews(); ?>
<?php ssi_recentPosts(); ?>


Can anyone tell me if the min honor is working with this version, such as if you set it to 15 that any honor under this will not be able to join server.
