while i was playin some aa, or attempting to join a game, i was watching the chat in teh gamespy channel and some guy posted a link to some forum thing, i clicked it and it told how to host your own lil server.

i quote him now:
------------------------------------
After a bit of experimentation with some old UT commands, I was able to get a server running.

Navigate to the System dir of America's Army

Make a copy of Default.ini and rename the copy to hoho.ini

Open hoho.ini and make the following changes:

Find localmap=Entry.aao and change it to localmap=Pipeline.aao (there are a variety of options, look in the map dir for more maps)

Find the line that says ServerActors=UTelnet.TelnetServer and comment it out (add a ; before the line)

Create a batch file in the System directory with the following line: armyops.exe -server ini=hoho.ini

Run the batch file.

Now, this will create a dedicated server which people can (and will, holy fuck it fills up fast) join. You can further tweak the hoho.ini file to add modify a variety of settings like maxplayers, listings, etc.

To connect to servers people host, pull down the console and type 'open <ip>'
