Title: Aces High crashes when I try to play LAN or offline
Post by: erekose on April 21, 2008, 01:18:15 PM
it runs fine, but as soon as a I try to fly offline, or create a LAN game. right when its loading the trucks and textures it crashes and gives me the message "aceshigh.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience." I've uninstalled and reinstalled it 3 times now, and it still has that problem  :mad: I don't understand. if anyone could help I'd appreciate it.  :D

Then you'll have to wait for the next patch:

The offline crashes on certain machines with Patch 3 is a memory allocation issue related to drones in the practice missions.  This will be fixed in the next patch and it has no impact on online play or performance.
...
If none of that works, you're probably not going to be able to run it offline until a patch is released.

There are only a few things that would prevent LAN play from working.  The computers not being on the same subnet.  If there is a router, and it is configured to disallow connections between computers on the LAN.  Software firewalls.
