Title: Fresh installation
Post by: kwekkeboomkroket on Thursday, February 04, 2021, 08:28:29 AM
After many issues with punkbuster kicks, tried a fresh installation. After the installation assist  has problems finding the system folder where it is installed. Find doesn't work only download but then you run into the same issue over and over again

For future reference.


It seems like you're most likely missing the System folder.
You download it for Windows:

EDIT: It looks like newer versions of Chrome tend to not allow you to download the above file. You can try another browser.

The armyops folder should look like this:

PS:
If you're not sure where the game folder is, then check the first FAQ entry (https://aao25.com/support/#faq):

I have the same issue. It seems like the downloader downloads the "system" 7zip file, but does not extract it.

I downloaded the system manually anyway from teddy's link, and now the installer just deleted everything in the armyops folder, after I put armyops folder in the manual "find" option!

I have the newest Win10 build, seems like it's not compatible anymore with 25assist?

E: finally got it working with below steps.

1. Redownload everything
2. Extract 'system' 7zip in 'armyops' folder
3. Close 25Assist, do not click "find" or it will delete everything!
4. Start 25Assist with admin rights, it will perform file check and recognize the system folder
