Welcome to my website. This website serves as an info and download source for my Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (GRAW) servers.
Furthermore you can find here a tutorial how to play this game online again in multiplayer under OpenSpy. OpenSpy is an open source GameSpy clone. (http://beta.openspy.net/en/).

I enjoyed playing this old game from 2006 and still like to play it from time to time. I was already running a server with custom maps back then.
After 2014 the GameSpy service was switched off you could no longer play online. It was still possible to play LAN. But you could also do that online via a VPN service. Very well known among gamers was for example Hamachi.
In the meantime, gamers like to use the tool Radmin (www.radmin-vpn.com) as a VPN service for LAN play (unfortunately only for Windows).
But for me, to playing online was dead. Meanwhile I have also read that you can no longer buy this game, only as a used game. I am also aware that the game is dead ;-)
Nevertheless, thanks to OpenSpy I would like to start a standalone server (or more) for this game again.

Important info about my GRAW standalone server:
Unfortunately, the game and therefore the servers, with the last patch v1.35 was still very buggy. I have therefore noticed the following problem.
If the server is idle for longer time (about ~20 hours) and waiting for players, it can be happen depending on the custom map, the first map after connecting to the server, there are no enemys are available in the game! :-)
Either enemies appear in the middle of the map or you can finish the map without firing a shot. The next map that is loaded then works normally again as it should.
If something like this happens, it is best if all players leave the server so that the next map is loaded from the server. Then simply rejoin the server.
It makes no difference whether the server runs on Windows or Linux (with Wine). The server can be idle for days and the first map works fine with enemies.
