Installing America's army 2.5

[tcebak]

Hello i downloaded the armyops25o-linux.run file and i made it an executable file and then ran it under sudo "./armyops250-linux.run"
but it says

Verifying archive integrity...Error in MD5 checksums: 574636a56eb793c4a3bcff04dafbbd87 is different from dc7ebb581249712f797c6d283a8e98a5

then i tried it with gksudo just for kicks and giglles and i get this also:

Tried to connect to session manager, Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed


what exactly does that mean. am i missing a dependency that i don't konow about thank you for your time!

I think this means that the file is corrupted. Try to redownload it.

Hi,
how did you change the file to a executable? what is you impression of the game under Linux?

Thanks

I'll speak on his behalf... The game is just great, there's no online first person shooter better for Linux. However I do have a strange and very annoying problem that happens at random. The game will just lock up upon clicking internet tab under the deployment menu.

This is most likely due to automatic system updates... I'm going to trial this suspicion by not installing any updates for a month once I have it going again.
