I had 2 crashes on the real version tonight, then I found this thread.

I have about 2 hours with this test version, no issues so far.

So far so good, although I wasn't getting crashes before.  It does seem to clear up the transparent glass issue in the 38G.

We need blinking text for new sticky posts in these threads.  We get so used to seeing them up top that we don't even pay attention to them any more so when something new gets posted it gets missed.

Or something to grab our attention when something new gets posted...  :rock

  Noticed the Icon issue in WW1 the other day. When looking back Icons would disappear and then return. Thought it was the reduced Icon range with the new patch. Will check it out on the test version.

No crashes at all, for the "test version", or the latest version either.

Can't seem to get the test version.  Tried both Firefox and Explorer and got this same message from both:



Had no trouble uploading the current game version.  WTF does this mean?  :headscratch:

It looks like you're trying to run it instead of download it.  Select the "save as" option and navigate your target window to your Aces High folder.

You also get that message if you run the file outside of the Aces High folder. It has to be in the same folder as aceshigh.exe.
