America's army for Windows XP

**Psyco** · 11-14-2004, 05:17

I recently read about the game, America's Army, and downloaded it. The problem is that it isn't compatible with Windows XP. Is there anything I could do to make it work?

Yes it is. I've played it on my other XP comp. This one too but that was an older version. Maybe you're using the wrong language? What exactly is the error message you're getting?

Thanks for the help.
The error is "AmericasArmy220.exe is not a valid Win32 application."

I downloaded the english version (full version, not the patch).

If that's the same language as your version of XP... Hmm. Did you try downloading it again?

I'll try that. Whats the best mirror?

Thanks

If you do get it working, and run across Nobody Important, that's me. Let me know, and I'll see if i can't give you a few pointers in-game (not that I'm any good of course). There are a few of us on the .org who play AAO... I'm sure they'll all come barreling in here to introduce themselves.

I downloaded it again, and it worked!

My screen name is "PsycicPsyco".

Does anyone have any pointers (right now I have 9 honor... so I could use any help I can get)?

Get online and practice - watch those that seem to know what they're doing and learn from them, that sorta thing. And try to avoid getting shot - that's always embaressing.

Do learn target recognition as well, no-one appreciates friendly fire - just ask any of Her Majesty's soldiers...
