The newest version is 2.24 Patch 4 and is actually the only one you can download. To play the game online, you need to ahve the latest. So there is alway only one 'common' version.

The difference between AHI and AHII...   years of evolution The 'II' has been dropped offically along time ago, it's just Aces High.

So,

So when i downloaded AH and AHII... i can drop AHII and patch AH to the latest one (2.24)...and than rockn roll... but i think i gonne make some offline practice first.
are there some good ai missions for beginners.

The download you get from the offical site is the lastest version.  Version control is automatic.  Just click on the down load button and like magic you get the correct version.  It's updated automatically when you go online.

I bolded this part because the moment you go "online", your two-week free trial starts; whether you spend any time in the online arenas or not. If you ever used your two-week trial in the past, you won't be able to use it again.

Download the latest version that is posted on the HTC homepage and play offline to get used to the controls. Come back here and ask any questions you have, or read through the trainers.hitechcreations.com site. Once you actually go online, and your two-week trial begins, every time you go online the game checks for the latest version and will automatically download it. If you never go online, the game doesn't care what version you're using.

NOTICE: if you currently have 2 folders , one showing Aces High & one showing Aces High II............. depending on how old the "Aces high" folder is ( it could be the more recent Aces High verses a very old Aces High meaning the version before AHII came out )

I would seriously recommend backing up your settings and then deleteing/uninstalling all your current Aces High versions from your computer........ REASON: you will not be able to "patch " your old Aces high with the newest AH update patches...... even if you were using or had the version 2.22 of Aces high installed, you would not be able to log in and auto update it to version 2.24 patch 4

you would need to do a completely full complete game download and full install.......

so again, I recommend a fresh start. You should uninstall/remove any current aces high game installations and then download/install the most recent version 2.24 patch 4

also note, that the game does not default to C:\program files\htc\aces high\   or to C:\htc\aces high II\

the game today will default to C:\hitech creations\aces high\  Also, it is recommended to not install any Aces High installation to the program files directory, especially using Vista or Windows 7........ if you do, you will experience problems

make sure your default directory is C:\Hitech Creations\Aces High\   on your new install ( or you can also download & install it on a secondary drive  like D:\Hitech Creations\Aces High\  if one would rather not use their  OS drive ( drive C:\  for most people )

hope this helps ....... good luck

Hi & Welcome Heimdali  

To answer ur question re: "are there some good AI missions for beginners?"  The answer is
YES but it's an excellent learning tool for beginners & the experienced alike  

Scroll down on this bulletin board to "Offline Missions" & look for players 'bbosen' who has
7-9 offline missions, ready for downloading & playing, likewise spend some time on his site
to see what you can learn, u'd be pleasantly surprised!  

Another person well versed in writing/programming "Offline Missions" is '100Coogn' he also
has 9 written & ready to play action packed missions.  Download them all & enjoy the challenges.  

There are plenty more talented & helpful people writing "Offline Missions" but, at present,
are pending their expertise until certain elements are fixed, hopefully soon
