Title: 25Assist Client Serverlist issue - Solution
Post by: ELiZ on Sunday, July 19, 2015, 10:09:30 AM
It seem that the problems that source forge had forced them to roll back the files like they were a long time ago. That means that the application you download right now is 8.18

Here is the 8.19 Manual download:

Windows
http://aao25.com/assistdl/Data/25Assist.zip (http://aao25.com/assistdl/Data/25Assist.zip)

Linux:
http://aao25.com/assistdl/Data/25Assist-Linux.zip (http://aao25.com/assistdl/Data/25Assist-Linux.zip)

Mac:
http://aao25.com/assistdl/Data/25Assist.app.tar.gz (http://aao25.com/assistdl/Data/25Assist.app.tar.gz)

I'm unsure what other problems might occur since the rolled back the files, and it's unknown if they will roll forward or not, all I know is that we don't have access at the moment to upload new files to sourceforge

25Assist for Intel macs has a bug that will produce that error, you just unlucky that it happened while downloading, just restart, it should restart where it left off.

I use Ubuntu Linux. Well, download continued despite of the error and game worked. Unluckily Ubuntu 64bit doesnt have needed 32bit libraries which I had to find out and download one by one. Last ones were 32 bit sound libraries.

a friend of mine did try both ways. the original and this one. but with both he has this error

failed to verify vital components, please check you internet connection and write permissions to assist folder and then retry

he did start the 25assist.exe with admin rights, but seems not to work. any suggestions ?

btw: he did try the install Monday at 21.30 CEST on win7 64

he did try to install both version - the one at surgeforce and the one you did post here.
but I will ask him tomorrow.

he did download first the "regular" one at "download for free", didn't work. then I told him to download this one at this thread.

same result. he downloaded the .zip file and he did try first do run the .exe at desktop. also with admin rights. then I told him to put that at %appdata% aa25assist folder to start again from there with admin rights. the same error.

maybe he is doing something wrong, but it seems to me that he understand the part of windows os very good. so this should not be a problem at all.

On windows, just download, unzip on desktop and run 25Assist.exe

thanks. I will tell him.
I did think about, maybe he had a piece of the other part installed... ?
we will delete all others and start again. I give feedback this evening or tomorrow when done.

I am having problems with assist not populating with the server list. It shows the current version of 8.19. It mentions, "Error contacting 2.5 assist server! / Unable to get server list". I have tried to turn off firewall and anti virus. I have tried to run as administrator and I am updated in Battletracker.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Looks like sourceforge.net finally opened up access to all of our files, so that we can update the old files with the new 8.19 ones.

It will also trigger our work for a minor update that will be released soon with some small fixes.

Thanks ELiZ,
I did a complete reinstall last night. I had found hidden folders that may have been the conflict. I thought I was all set since it was a lengthy install but to no avail, I still have the same issue. It shows in the "Install" that it is "online v8.19" however no servers populate. I am in Saudi Arabia, but I don't think I am blocked since I can play AA3 and Proving Ground. I am running Windows 7 64 bit. I am logged in at my other home computer in Germany but that computer is off. I installed the game in my AppData/ Roaming.
Thanks for your reply.

ELiZ,

Assist still does not populate with servers. What else can I do?

Again, any assistance is greatly appreciated.
