i guess i did find the solution now - with credits to aapg player Wraiths_Defiler and SF][-General_alkos!

it seems really like a problem of windows 10. there is a windows directory called system32 - for 64 bit apps.
now there is also a windows directory called sysWOW64 - for 32 bit applications. and this is the problem i guess. and because aa2 is a 32 bit application, you should find the punkbuster files on a 64 bit computer in this system32 directory. but it was not there for me (and i have a 64bit OS).

solution (i hope):
go to your c:\windows\sysWOW64 directory and copy the following files to c:\windows\system32.

PnkBstrA.exe
PnkBstrB.ex0
PnkBstrB.exe
PnkBstrB.xtr

reboot computer, start 25assist, join server. punkbuster updating will appear, maybe also a kick. then join server again. should work. if not, join 25assist with admin rights, go to install tab and run fix pb.

ps: i did this and now i can join a server without any kick since 20 minutes
I also noticed the PnkBstrA.exe and PnkBstrB.exe were in the SysWOW64 folder. But since I don't regularly used Windows nowadays, I assumed it was fine.

But on my end, like mentioned, the files are in the SysWOW64 folder and only there (although there are log files under System32). And it seems to work just fine.

Teddy, can you start assist on that laptop again please?
I did the same as you on a laptop. And like yours i could play 15 minutes (3 rounds) without any kicks. Then i rebooted the laptop and - i did get kicked by

service communication error: PnkBstrB.exe: heartbeat stopped

Now i did see that my windows is running the punkbuster services A and B, but with complete other versions then it shows at aa25assist.

Windows: A=1036, B=2202
aa25assist: A=a1371, B=c2243

this is very strange. I will do some more tests... but let me know if you get kicked now also.
I ran it again and found no problems. Although I was alone on the server.

PnkBstrA - v1033
PnkBstrB - v2.243 AAO

Is anyone who's having issues running another game that uses PB? Perhaps something is getting messed up?

Just installed on my laptop and played for 10 minutes with no issues (although I was on my own).

Here's what I did:
  • Downloaded 25Assist v8.22
  • Created a 25Assist folder where the exe was to force installation there
  • Ran 25Assist as admin
  • Waited for it to download and install everything
  • Joined an empty server and ran around for 10 minutes (2x 5 minute rounds)

OS:
Windows 10 Home
version 20H2 build 19042.610

No prior installations on this machine.

Is everyone making sure to run it as admin?

a couple of people offered to help but you ignored them (normally people later went to other games and are no longer here).
I'd love to see where you think this happened. You can link to that/those place(s).
and for the record I'm not against this project,everyone knows that!!
I am more against you and people like you who do not accept the suggestions of the whole community,who don’t play aa2 for years and decide everything in aa2..
Without the people currently running it this project would be dead. If you don't like those people, then you're against the project. There is no other way of looking at this.
did you wonder why the other assist admins left aa2, why 90% of the players left aa2 ..
Probably you should ask yourself, you are an assist admin..
People left because they had other things to do in life. They moved on. It happens.

Although it sounds like you're trying to make it sounds like someone might have left because of me. And I find this incredibly offensive for multiple reasons.
For one, just because you've got some beef with me, doesn't mean someone else does as well.
And you seem to be overestimating my position here. I was in no position to "force people out". If someone didn't like me, they'd be able to do that to me rather than the other way around.


I'd like to give you another reality check here. Because it's clear you're living in some fantasy world.
  • The people who are or were involved with this project have done this out of their own free will. In their own free time. They expected nothing in return.
  • An off hand remark "I could do X or Y" is not a genuine offer to pour hundreds of hours into a project 99% of the time.
  • As people grow older, their priorities change. They move on. It's normal for any voluntary position.
  • You shitting on people who are providing you a free service does not help boost their motivation

Those "smarter" people are welcome to step up and help the people on these forums.

And for the record, just so everyone can read it this time, I moderated you because I'm sick and tired of your hostile attitude towards the admin team and this project as a whole. If you don't like it here, you should leave.

I understand there is no battletracker, I am getting this message when I hit the Login button from Assist, I have a screen shot, I am not trying to change my name, I just did it to see what would happen.

Message says: Account login OK, but playername is too short.  I do not know what to do since it says I'm logged in but my playername is to short.
Since your player name is too short, you'll need to change it.

There is no battletracker anymore. So I'm not sure where you're trying to change your name exactly.

You can change the in game name under Assist Account on the top of the site.

Do you have firewall exceptions for PnkBstrA and PnkBstrB in your firewall?

I installed 25Assist on my laptop (Ubuntu 20.04) yesterday.
Seemed to run fine, but I didn't have sound :)

With that said, I didn't run it for too long so it's possible some issues would surface in a longer session.

I'm pretty sure people have been complaining about performance issues with the game for a long time now. And that has been on hardware that would have been unthinkable back when the game was first released (even the 2.5 version).
So I'd be include to believe there is some sort of driver/compatibility issue in play.

Perhaps you do not have permission to access those folders? Have you tried running 25Assist as admin?

Battletracker has been down for a while now.

You can download the new client that removes the mention of it as well.

You can register a 25Assist account under the Assist Account tab on the top of this page.
