Post by: Mr Blue on July 28, 2008, 06:54:11 PM
Hey..
Im pretty new to the game.. about 2 weeks new,,
and i got 2 questions..
first... Stupid me put some crazy ID name a bunch of numbers.. (i know im not the only one) up in the sky im called numbers guy.. and it sucks  :D so how can i change it?

second.. why is it that sometimes i cant fly my plane from the field? i use the N1k2 or the spitfire 16
both of them have ENY 5.. and to tell the truth i have no clue what that ENY means.. all i know is that sometimes it says i cant fly a plane with a ENY lower then 10 or 7 o whatever.
can someone plz explain to me what in the world does ENY mean and what is it good for or something...

thx for the help :aok

You have to pay for a subscription, then you get to pick your own name.

The ENY limiter is a penalty applied to teams with too many people relative to the lowest numbered team. The more people your team has beyond a certain threshold above the low team, the more restrictive the penalty becomes. In that case, if you want to fly those low ENY value planes you must leave the high numbered country and fly for one of the lower ones. The other option is to find a plane that has an ENY value of 10+ that you can enjoy then you will rarely if ever be bothered by the ENY limiter. You can see the breakdown of the ENY limiter by country and how it is affecting the teams by right clicking the clipboard and selecting "Country Status" from the drop-down menu.

Email HTC at support@hitechcreations.com and request they change your in-game name. You will need to supply your account name you sign onto the servers with. The only side-effect of this is you lose any accumulated perk points you may have. I would supply them with several names you would like in order of preference in case your first choice(s) is taken.

When you do E-mail HTC ensure you include your tag now, what you want it to be, and that yes you understand that you will lose all scores and points in the process.

Because he already paid, he would lose the prorated portion not used, then have to pay again for the new account.

AHWiki (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page) is your friend.... see the AHWiki article on ENY (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/ENY) to learn what ENY is all about.

id suggest learning a p38 a spitfire9/ a 109g2/ and any of the 190's to combat eny oh and if you like japanese planes/ ki-84 is ecelent choice too at 15 eny i think

most of these are 20+ and its rare to see it get that high, get good in em and never wory about eny again lol

of course they are challenging for newer players so stick with the spit 8 or 9 for now.


also check out this site for plane info.

AHWiki has a list of Aircraft of Aces High II (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/Aircraft_of_Aces_High_II), with links to an article for each model (many of which have been copied from Soda's site with his permission - but on AHWiki it is intended that anyone can expand and improve them as needed).

There is also a list of Aircraft, Vehicles and Boats in Main Arenas (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/Aircraft%2C_Vehicles_and_Boats_in_Main_Arenas) which shows the availability, typical ENY value and perk cost in the online Main Arenas.
