New version up!

Please use this thread to post issues/bugs with the Beta 18 DirectX 11 release of Aces High III.  Thank you!

What about DX12? Would that mean I am running Ah version 11? Never mind I see the new 11.

I had posted on DX9 before I realized there were different threads. The previous posts were for DX9.

The controls locking are with DX9. Also the sun looking like an asterisk is same version.

DX11 is worse...
1) no gun site in 38j
2) sky flickers with props turning when looking forward/up 45 deg
3) can see in front of me through artificial horizon indicator

Tried today as well, all was fine. Launched no problem and exit from clip board was successful also.

I downloaded and ran the MS DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010)  installer for all three versions of DX, 9, 10, and 11. Now my DX11 fps is higher than before. In the DX11 version I was getting lower FPS than the DX9 version. I wonder if the guys reporting fantastic FPS higher than in the DX9 version are also running Win10. It is worth a shot if you are getting lower FPS in the DX11 version than the DX9 version.

My OS is Win7 Pro 64bit.

If your computer has DX12, it's a modern one and you can run both the 9 and 11 versions. XP only has DX9 so the users of that OS can't run the DX11 version. Very few games support DX12.

I've got an older system by today's standards that still runs the game well by my standards.

Cockpit is off center.

Tracers occasionally show up as large artifacts, sometimes as triangles and with 40 mm cannons from the HurriIID they looked more like red ] bracket shapes as well.

After reinstalling DX11, the tracer artifacts are a red wire frame capitol letter D and the number 1 .

Going to select field gun from Task Group, and only was able to see a blank canvas.  None of the usual representations of ships or gun positions.
Same for me...dx11 ver...dx9 not a problem
Thx to bustr for setting me straight dx9/11 ver

DX11 launched just fine.  Flew a p-38 and drove a tank without issue with exception of odd graphics here and there as was expected.  excited the game without issue.

The coolest odd graphics was the P-38J's artificial horizon gauge showed the real horizon in the gauge kind of like a periscope or a view port.

Another interesting thing I noticed while running DX11, my AV actually asked me if I wanted to run it. I have not had that happen for a few years now.

Read the notes guys. This test release is merely to test getting into the game OFFLINE cleanly in DX11.

Of course we know that you are correct, so don't mind me just being a banana monkey  :banana:
