Game Crashing to "Aces High 2 is not responding". Never happened before until patch yesterday. Since then it has happened once last night and twice today.
Once in a Brew, once in the new A6M3, and once form the tower.
Anyone else getting this?
-
getting same, white screen, and windows looking for a fix, once in a gv, a6m3 and once when exit the main arena.

I had to Run as Administrator to correct this
-
Same issue here. Running as admin did not correct it. Started with todays patch
Vati
-
Running as admin wont do it, that was the fix for white screen apon opening the game.
-
The game is crashing frequently now. Two fighter sorties for two crashes.
-
I reinstalled the game and so far so good. Didnt have another crash since. Hopefully it fixed it. Fingers crossed.
-
I tried four sorties tonight during TT. The game crashed on each one within 5 minutes.
Before the crash I saw the same thing Delirium described in this post in the old Win 7 64-bit thread.

Was in Earlier war in the tower and game crashed, but background became the lobby?
Hopefully fixed soon. Now paying for a game that wont let me play.
Im running Win 7 64bit.
Game has crash while running as admin and while not. 5 times now in 3 days.
-
getting the same thing, 3 times now
-
Make sure you allow A/H through any anti-virus software. I always delete permission first after update and then re-allow it.
Do a cold reboot of everything. In other words shut down router ect from power and start everything back up.
This worked for a few of us that had disco issues in previous updates. I do it every time an update comes out now. :cheers:
-
Frodo,
This is not a disco issue. The game is crashing not just disconnecting.
Vati
-
Well I got the same white screen crash as posted. What I posted above fixed it. Not sure if it is technically a crash or a disco? :cheers:
-
Game crashes offline too.
-
cant say that I ever remember AH "crashing" on me.....3 times so far since the patch.
-
Just installed update, got that first time I tried to log into arena. Deleted AH from my firewall rules and then added it again. Working fine now.
-
Delete it from rules?
-
4 times tonight finally give up
-
I tried four sorties tonight during TT. The game crashed on each one within 5 minutes.
I changed nothing between last night and tonight. I flew for several hours tonight and didn't have a single crash while ingame. I did have four or five crashes while changing arenas in the lobby though. I don't know what the difference was.
-
Got a strange crash last night. I'm updated and everything has been working. Just after pressing the button to get to LWO I got a windows crash screen. It probably isn't all that useful but I'll post it below just in case. After this crash, I rebooted the system and got back in normally, then the power blinked as the huge giant scary storms started rolling through last night. I decided to quite while I was ahead at that point. :)

I crashed only once right when the game loaded for the first time after the update. Is fine now (Win7, not run as admin). I only crash when I'm Alt-Tabing back to the game once or numerous times while the textures are reloading but that was with previous version too.
-
Have had AH crash on me in the past but can't remember how long it's been since the last time. Several versions ago surely. I didn't fly on Wednesday night but did last night and did have a crash out of nowhere with no changes to anything on my end. Heard a couple of squaddies say they'd also crashed.
-
crashing since patch for me W-XP here
-
Same here for me, got skins and stick settings back but now I get the app crash window. Cant even fly online at all.
Spent 4 min in the DA to test. Tried to change to the MA and app crash! Had to hit reboot, tried again probably 10 times over the last couple days and no joy!
I have tried all the tips and tricks but nothing works. Including a complete wipe and fresh install.
How about a downgrade back to the latest stable level before the latest patch so your paying customers can use what they are paying for?
I know HTC will get it fixed but until then can we at least get it online stable?
Oh BTW I have a dual boot and have tried in both WIN7 64bit and XP, both are the same.

This is also starting to happen to me. Win7 x64.
I am NOT getting Delieriums "moving mountains" effect, but I *AM* getting massive FPS lag. I have a top-end system and before the GV code revision and the subsequent patch I had no trouble gaming for hours on end without fail. I would get closer to 200 fps when I turned vsync off.
I have a high end system now... It can muscle through anything.
However, I'm getting massive FPS loss down to 7fps in some cases around trees and low-level fights.
I DID notice a few odd things. The sunset tints the sky orange... Along with kills FPS more than the trees.
However, if I had the sunset off my 10 oclock last night, and I looked 2 oclock, I could see the orange tint blink off, and go back to neutral. The ground and the haze were blinking grey/blue when I looked 2 oclock back to orange-tint when I looked straight ahead. It was like the rendering for the sun's light was being cut off if the sun itself wasn't being rendered.
Some funky stuff going on with this update.
Per Skuzzy here:
http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,312085.0.html
It could be a sound issue for those of us with Windows Vista or Windows 7. Per that thread the common thread also seems to be we get it much more frequently when going through the lobby than just joining the server directly.

Running Win 7 Pro 64-bit here (see signature links for details) and for the very first time, I'm seeing that "Aces High has stopped working" message.
Also noticed something else that's new: a *huge* frame rate hit when I first log in and get to the tower, which seems to clear up after a minute or so. This only happens with - maybe - every other login. Puzzling. Almost as though something big was downloading in the background...?
Have not seen any video tearing though.
-
I flew 3 sorties in MA last night. stopped for a second in the tower to look up into the sky searching for planes and....Crash. I really doubt its something on Our end that is causing this with so many wide spread cases since the update.

No, not something in the background, I've been getting that too... I thought it was unplayable the first time I logged in. Second time wasn't nearly so bad. Third was horrible... You're right it's about every other time. I think it might have to do with (maybe) the time of day inside the arena. I did notice that the sunset made the FPS hit even worse. That dawn/dusk time was single digits. I had to break off my dead-as-a-doornail target from 400 out because I had single digit FPS more than once last night.
-
Im also noticing that every once in a while when the game crashes, i come back to find my field of view in the video setting is changed from my normal 115, to the default 106.
Clue?
-
I got a complete crash last night, didn't even give me the AH has crashed warning, just straight to desk top.
im running XP :headscratch:
-
I downloaded the high texture pack today as a possible Fix.....I have not had a crash yet today. Will post back tonight with more results.
EDIT: played for 5 hours today between morning and afternoon. Had no crashes after DLing the hi res pack.
-
I already had the hi-res installed and it crashes for me.
-
The only other thing i did was cut down the services running in the background that black viper has under his "tweaked" catagory.
EDIT: i left it idle in the lobby for about 15 mins, and when i came back it crashed.

However, I'm getting massive FPS loss down to 7fps in some cases around trees and low-level fights.
I also noticed that even in the half-sized SPLASH SCREEN my FPS has dropped to only 40fps or so. I believe it used to peg at 60 (monitor refresh) before this new-gv-driving update and subsequent patches.
Now even before the game loads my FPS is lower? Why is that? The game hasn't even loaded yet! It makes no sense, I tells ya!
-
Error message in windows to close program when tank completed rearming on hotpad.........unless tank is not supposed to use hotpad....I'm a little new.
-
Also getting crash with or without hi res pack. Perhaps 2 per night.
-
Well I gather there was some tweaking with the way certain tiles were being displayed, and HTC adjusted something about how it displayed in one of the revision patches...
So on a hunch I went out and scanned for newer graphics drivers.
Note: I had no problems with AH before the GV update, my graphics were good. However, with the intent of just getting past the problem any way possible, I found a newer ATI driver (11.5) and installed it. This has minimized most of the problems. FPS is back up to a respectable level as of last night. I still get artifacts, however. Little blue boxes render around geometry edges and such.
-
I had that happen last night. I logged in and was in maybe for about 3-5 minutes. When I spawned on the runway, my screen went black and had to re-start the whole computer itself.

Hi all!
I would like to report 3 or 4 consecutive crashes last Wednesday night. I was playing and suddenly AH would go to desktop with a black window and losing mouse and keyboard command. In all those occasions the action sound continued for a few seconds until it became "looped" and a Microsoft error message popped up...
I turned off all programs and, finally, turned off the anti-virus, leaving only my firewall. To no avail, crashed twice.
This was a very, very rare issue. Lately started to disco more frequently. Now, the crashes are since last update...
I'm running a low-end machine with XP SP2.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance,
