Hey! I would like to know a few things abou offline mission since I've been playing them
1) is there any way to make your scores only show the planes that YOU have actually taken down? because it just gives me a lot of scores that I didnt do!
2)is there any way to carry more bombs like those arcade airplane games? (just to practice dive bombing, it would be so stupid for real playing)
3)how do I set the Roster thing to show the scores I have earned so far?
I mean, the Arena setup menu things, not for making a new mission, I would like to have those things to change in the "Server" itselft so it would value to all the practice missions.

1) For a long time now, the automagic "scoring" for these offline missions has suffered from the flaws that you describe; you tend to get credit for the deaths of all other planes, whether you were really responsible or not. I've also noticed the opposite; sometimes I've been SURE I shot down a bot but didn't get credit. Other times there is a long, Long, LONG delay before credit is awarded. I'm under the impression that the most recent versions of Aces High are better now. Until I read your post I was suspecting that they had fixed this issue. Maybe not.... Anyway, the general consensus among most experienced Aces High veterans is that automated scoring is a Bad Thing, because no computer can really use the judgment necessary to determine who did what significant thing to whom, etc. I suggest you just analyze your own scoring activities from your own observations or films.
2) I don't know how to load up an arcadish bomb load. I'm not saying it can't be done, but I've never stumbled on any way to do it.
3) "how do I set the Roster thing to show the scores I have earned so far?" I don't know. Sorry.

unfortunetly I can't help you on 1 and 3, but the arcadish bomb-load is(unfortunetly) hack-only

actually there is a way to enhance the load out on some missions. i dont remember how to do it, but i know it can be done.
if you post a thread to UPTOWN or send him a PM and ask him these questions i am certain he will help you. he is a good guy who loves the game and has posted (in my opinion) so of the best offline mission that you can find for AH.
good luck
