Hello!
I'm curious how to run more AA servers on 1 PC (server). I have downloaded the dedicated server files , however it's only 1 exe file . How do I run more of those exe files to create more servers?

Check out the downloads:

As it says, the dedicated server is ONLY for use with a hosting company. If you want to run multiple servers on your home PC, use Assist and read the readme on how to do it.

Just 1 question before i find the readme , can i run assist.exe multiple times?

Spanky are you sure? People like norby run the dedicated package off their home linux install I believe.

Now run:
server.exe GLOBAL map-filename
And your server will start, on later versions of windows you may need to run as administrator.
(Replace map-filename with the map you want, bridge, insurgent_camp, radio_tower etc.)
(Optional command-line arguments -ID=001 -Port=1716 -Multihome=0.0.0.0 override settings in aa25.ini)
run server.exe with this command line: server.exe -ID=002 -Port=1718
if ur going to run more servers, remember to change the proces ID(-ID=00?), port(-Port=1716, just add the last port used + 2, = 1718 for a new server and so on.),
someone will explain it better :P

Assist is easier IMO. Yes you can run multiple copies of Assist, the readme will tell you how. The readme is linked on the Info page that I linked on earlier. It is also a sticky in this forum.
