Converting "offline missions" to "Staged Missions"
« on: July 20, 2012, 02:51:57 AM »
It is necessary to recompile older "offline missions" in order for the new 2.28.x version of Aces High to recognize them as "Staged Missions". Fortunately, it is not difficult to do so. I've just published instructions here:

http://techvideoreview.com/FlightSimMovies/AcesHigh/Ah2Missions/Ah2OfflineMissionsFullPage.htm

The page commences with a general history of Aces High offline missions. Scroll down to the line that commences with "In July of 2012, HiTech Creations released Version 2.28.x and made some very important changes." The next paragraph contains what you will need to know.

As of today (24Jul2012) I have converted almost all of the missions found here:

You can now fly them as "Staged Missions" in the manner expected by the new version 2.28.x of Aces High. There are still a few missions left to convert.... I'm workin' on  'em!

Thanks Bosen, have you tried uploading them to the server?

I don't believe the upload feature works right now, but It seems you need a .mis file for that so I don't think any of us will be able to upload your converted missions online, when it is up and running.

Well, I'll be watching for news about the upload feature. If the .mis files are needed for my missions, I'll publish them in a prominent place on my web site.

This sticky should probably be removed to avoid confusion since AH2 went away.
