hope this is the right place.
when i upgraded to the new version, the offline missions didn't come over.
now, if i were still running xp, i'd know exactly where to look to find the folders. i have windows vista, and the only aces high folder i can find, is the beta one.
i've d/l'd a couple of missions, but can't find where to put em.
hhhaaalllllpppp!!!! (flapping arms in the air)

They tell me the old offline missions dont work, not sure if any new have been made
-
No new missions can be made until the new editor is out.
There will be a new editor soon as the game settles down a bit. New editor, film view, and skin viewer as well.

BTW the ME will have a few fixes in it.

Offline missions are stored in the OFFMISS subdirectory of the main program. Your old missions should still be there, mine were all left intact.
With Vista your Aces High folder may be in the Program Files folder or Program Files(86) on a 64-bit system. With the way Vista's security features work to lock down these folders there have been many problems and at this point the best advice is probably that Vista users re-install Aces High to a different folder. The current version will default to using a folder outside of the problematic area.

Hope this helps.

Terrains were changed, so the old missions will no longer work with the new patch.
Until the editor is released (on hold till all the vital important stuff is fixed) you won't see any new missions.

Stalwart made a nice post for running offline missions...

Just upload old game version to C drive under games, though as Ghosth said, you must incorporate all the terrain files too.

Good luck, every time I tried to download the old version it just came up as the new version. I gave up.
-
hhmm......wonder if i could transfer the old version from my old machine using xp onto this machine using vista?
-
Cap it shouldn't be an issue to move the game over to vista,I saved a copy of the old version on my vista machine.You could use a jump drive to transfer the game if both machines arent on a network.
