If you've tried to create a server using Assist Server Manager recently, you may have run into this error


Fortunately, a workaround is possible.

1. Download 7-Zip 4.57.0.0. The archive contains a 506 KB executable, 7za.exe.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/files/7-Zip/4.57/7za457.zip/download


2. If you've encountered this error before, you'll likely have a 1 KB 7za.exe executable alongside AssistServerManager.exe and AssistServerManagerLibs. Replace this file with the 506 KB executable you've downloaded in the previous step. If you do not have this file, place it in the Assist Server Manager folder.


3. Start AssistServerManager.exe. It should start without issue and allow you to create a server.

News / Assist Emails Update
« on: Tuesday, June 25, 2024, 15:49:27 PM »
Hello everyone,

As you may be aware, we've encountered issues with email delivery, particularly affecting Gmail accounts (refer to Teddy's post here).

The good news is that we have resolved this issue. Gmail and other providers should now properly receive emails sent from aao25.com (such as password resets and forum registrations). However, these emails may still occasionally land in your spam folder, so be sure check there if you are expecting an email.

As always, if you're anticipating an email and it hasn't arrived, feel free to contact us on the forums or Discord.

Additionally, you should now be able to post messages to the shoutbox via the Assist website.

If you encounter any issues, unusual behavior, or unexpected problems that might be related to these changes, please reply to this thread so we can investigate.

Thanks, and see you in-game!

General Chat / AATracker.net - America's Army Stat Tracking.

https://discord.aatracker.net <-- our community Discord server

It's been close to a month since we silently launched the AATracker Service, after multiple rewrites, bug fixes and testing it is finally in a mostly stable and accurate state. I had made a post here several months ago that I was working on a Discord bot / stat tracker in my spare time, and I've mostly scrapped that idea and launched https://aatracker.net, a web app to view your stats, tracked servers and what we call Virtual Honor, which is what your honor would be, calculated using tracked score + your frozen Assist honor. (Huge thank you to DeeDyLis and teddy_grizzly_bear for providing the formula to calculate honor as this is information I would never have been able to find on my own!).

(Virtual Honor is now synced with Assist Honor every 24hrs, see Teddy's post here: https://aao25.com/forum/news-82/(beta)-gaining-honor-and-honor-claims/)

The leaderboard provides you an overview of all tracked players and sort by kills, deaths, kdr, timeplayed, etc. Clicking a profile allows you to view map specific stats for that player.


Each player profile provides overall stats, progress towards your next honor level, as well as map specific charts / stats.



How does it work?

The AATracker service is a .net 6 application that queries a collection of AA2.5 servers at a regular interval using the Gamespy V2 protocol. In short, the application calculates score based on kills, deaths, leader, roe, etc returned by the query, as well as kills & deaths for each map you've played. Stats are saved when a player disconnects, the set changes, the map changes or should the server crash. The application can also detect quick reconnects and handle that accordingly so ensure stats remain accurate.
Basically, it works very similar to the way BattleTracker used to, albeit with less bells and whistles, and to my knowledge there is no masterserver we can reach out to so we rely on servers to be manually added to our list of servers to track (Although the process of adding servers / verifying they are a valid 2.5 server with cheats disabled has been automated).

What happened to the bot?
It still exists, although now it mostly used to manage the tracker / provide updates about which servers are tracked every 30 minutes


One neat feature added is the ability for some trusted server admins to start/stop/restart the gameserver via Discord as it's a pain to ssh into a box just to start or restart the gameserver.


And that's pretty much it! Some people have asked me why invest the time for a game with so few players, and I don't really have a solid answer besides curiosity and having nothing else to work on in my free time. With any luck perhaps it will help draw some players back, or at least retain the ones that we have!.

AA Support / Forgotten Password / Registration
« on: Wednesday, July 03, 2019, 16:30:51 PM »
Hey all,

So as I've gotten a new PC, I cannot remember my password and the forgotten password link doesn't work as Battletracker has shut down?.

Also, I have a few friends that plan trying to play Americas Army for a LAN night (For nostalgia purposes) and I am not sure how they would go about registering an account?.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Support / Cannot login
« on: Wednesday, August 22, 2018, 15:06:54 PM »
Hey all,

I recently tried to return and play a few rounds but am unable to login to my account via the 25assist client.
When I try to login with my Battletracker username (slammedsedan21), I get a notice that the username does not exist.

After reading on the forums, I used my current in-game display name (Slammed!) and am met with a message stating that my password is incorrect.

I can login on the Battletracker website, however not the 25assist client. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Games & Programming / Insurgency : Americas Army sound mod
« on: Wednesday, November 04, 2015, 21:35:35 PM »
So yeah, I've been playing Insurgency and recently found out that Americas Army 2 still exists.. and such, I spent a few hours taking some classic AA sounds and adding them to a sound mod for Insurgency.. Here's a short little video of some game play.



I plan to continue to add more comm sounds for US and Opfor, as well as a few more weapon sounds and maaybe skins for coop and solo play.
