hey guys, i'm an AA 2.5 gamer from the good old days, and just found out recently that the game was back up. I'm in the process of getting an old clan back together under a new name, but having some issues with the Dedicated Server side.

Several people have asked me to mod my server, which I don't mind doing. However, I'm running a VPS on Debian and having trouble figuring out how to inject. Just about everything I have looked up says its possible, but noone seems to have a clear tutorial or explaination on injecting the mods on a linux OS for a VPS. Anyone got any ideas what needs to be done?

Thanks,
Paul

O please don't mod your server!

Really the only mod I am considering is the WeaponPicker. That's only for the free-for-all server I'm running. The dedicated server isn't going to be. That one will be only for real genuine AA players who like it the way it was meant to be.

But honestly, the mod server is just something for others to have fun on.

That's exactly what I did, including adding the ServerActors info and etc. to the server.ini but it still won't load either mod. Is there some step I've missed?

The steps provided in the readme's were exactly the same:

1: copy to System folder
2: Add specific value to specific areas inside Server.ini
3: Start server and enjoy mods.

But when I start the server up, mods aren't even recognized as legitimate commands.

You shouldn't be editing Server.ini, if you are runnsing 25Assist Dedicated server, that file isn't used.

Edit this one:
server\aa25srv.ini

That's the file I've been editing. It ain't making Any effect. I've been having to use either forceclass by admin or execute one of the text files to mod the server.

Um... What grade in school did you graduate from? I've been playing AA since it was older than 2.5. There's only one version of 2.5 available for download that works 100% correctly with Assist, and that's the version Assist Auto-downloads and installs for you. Wake up and smell the coffee... Only one version that works properly. Oh, wait... That's version 2.5... DUH. Go away idiot.

If you read his comment thoroughly, you'll see he didn't tell you to install the right version OF 2.5, but the right version FOR 2.5. What this means is that he thinks you might not have the right version of the mod (the one that works with 2.5).

Oh okay, I was reading through this and it didn't make any sense, especially from tcs. I was having the same problem, and mine was doing it where it would delete the added .u file or whatever it is. I downloaded my mods from www.aamods.com and none of them work. Is there somewhere else I should be downloading from?
