3.06 Patch 7 - help us test before it goes live

[hitech]

We are planning to release Aces High III 3.06 Patch 7 tomorrow, Tuesday October 6.

If you would like to test it with us before then, install either the patch or the full installer, your choice:

Patch (updates 3.06 Patch 6): AHIII3606TO3607.EXE (14.6 MB)
Full installer: AHIII3607.EXE (320 MB)

The patch only works on a 3.06 Patch 6 install. The new version plays in the normal arenas. Steam players will get it automatically when it goes live.

Changes in 3.06 Patch 7

• Fixed the mission editor not working.
• Fixed skins sometimes no longer downloading after entering an arena whose skins did not match yours, until you restarted the game. The game now downloads the skin list again when the arena's skins change.
• The Saitek Pro Flight Quadrant default mapping is now a throttle instead of a stick.
• Corrected four mistakes in flightdata.txt, the description of the UDP flight data output. The output itself is unchanged.
• Corrected and clearer tool tips in the terrain editor, cloud editor, mission editor, object editor and film viewer.
• Film viewer: Save as AVI now uses a save dialog and asks before overwriting a file.
• Uploader: the file dialogs start in the program's folder until you save your settings.

Please post anything you find in this thread.

Installed patch with no problem.  DX9  Win7

Mission editor worked for me, but no one else joined so don't know about that.

Tool tips for TE worked well.

Saved film as AVI and was able to open it in video editor.

Uploader worked normally.

Who is "us"??

Is someone working with you, or are you referring to AI or super intelligence as the other party?

Got the same error message as patch 6 after d/l and installing the patch 7.  Clicked "ok" and restarted game - ran normal, same as with patch 6.

Probably HiTech Creations, the company.

Probably HiTech Creations, the company.

Last I was aware, it was just HiTech.  I think thats the impression 99.9% of the players base is under.

This issue (ahbrowser.exe fail) was resolved for me by clicking and running the full installer. Both the arena message and help work on clipboard menu now.

There are plenty of one person businesses in the world. “We” as a business is still the proper public persona.

The royal "we"

Historically in England, its use began in the 12th century under Henry II and Richard I to symbolize acting in concert with God or invoking divine authority ("God and I").
