The patch located a Microsoft DLL it needed and after installing that began to download. However the download rate was very slow at 19kB/s (5 hours) so I cancelled the install and ran the patch again. This time it installed at a good rate. The game ran as normal.

Same thing with me, 91kbs/5 hours.  Canceled download and restarted, then it worked properly.
The game booted with no issues.

Edit:  Flew offline for about 90 minutes using DX11 and had no freezes or micro-stutters  :aok

Installed and ran. Res file download took 25min, about the same as downloading a full game install. No problems getting online.

It downloaded quickly for me and needed one DLL.  I have an AT&T fiber line that is fast.  Went into the MA and all looked fine, but I had no time to fly, will do that Friday.

Ditto what greebo said. After second try it went fast. Game seemed to run very well. But, only being back in the game for second day after 2 year hiatus I might not be a good judge.

Only problem I had was the download. It took for ever, and then when it loaded the stdshapes file during the install, again took for ever. I tried to restart the download a number of times and all were the same. Tried grabbing the "full install" while down loading the patch and that file was down loading 5 times faster.  Strange.

Download took 39 minutes.  But this was between 7:56 and 8:35 pm Eastern time, which probably affected it.

Install was three minutes, perhaps less.  No problems with the install.  Game booted up right away.

As someone has said, things seem brighter and louder.  But I hadn't recorded my prior gamma and sound settings, so I don't know if this is a feature of the new version, or if the new version reset these things.

The download was a little weird.  I started the download for the file from the link in this thread, it was coming in at 91kB/s.  It eventually stalled, so I canceled it and tried to restart it, which failed several times, then when it did succeed, it came in at 3.3MB/s.  stdshape is coming in at about 2400-2600 kB/s.

It installed and ran fine, sadly for me at least, dx11 stutter remains.

Download took about 10 seconds, installation took about 5 minutes.  All worked fine for me in the arena afterwards.

This may sound stupid. but to do a backup of your settings and control condigurations do you just need to save the "settings" folder in the Aces High 3 directory ?
