Newer maps and a big Ruh-Roh! AvA Players - please read!
« on: January 06, 2010, 03:15:40 PM »
Hey pilots,

The AvA has just received some map changes: arden08(minor updates), mindan09(new version), and rangon09(new version).

When we did this update, however, we fat-fingered the table that housed Squadron names.

As a result, we need everyone to re-do the squadrons in the AvA.  All squads (including mine), got deleted with this update. I understand this is a P.I.T.A on a major scale, but please forgive us for this error.  

As a way of saying sorry and for your appreciation of the best arena in Aces High, at next year's con, Skuzzy and I will buy any AvA pilot in attendance a free drink at the social.

rangon09 is only a repair to the coastlines and some icon corrections. Similar for bob09 when it's put on the servers.
Easy in-game again.

You need two players to form a squad.

You're right, it's not working right... we'll have to contact Skuzmiester.

This may be the wrong forum for it, but does BOB incorporate any of the changes that were envisioned way back, like radar towers being remodeled, etc?

Or just straight-up terrain remapping with same old custom objects?


Because if they were redoing BOB, it would have been the PERFECT time to include a number of mega-strats around London, Paris, etc...

No. I was tired of flying FSO with blocky shorelines, so I chose to close my eyes and do minimal repairs to those two at this time.

I tried to re make our squad also, last couple of days. still not working for me

even tried to invite you Fork, when u was in there  ( I think yesterday evening? ) and it says something like

can not make squad  or somethinanother.........

any idea of when this will be fixed?
"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC
