I don't know of any missions written specifically for version 2.25 patch 2. Is there some reason why you don't change to the current version? If your primary interest is in offline missions, may I recommend old version 2.12.4? That version has several advantages, as discussed here:

http://techvideoreview.com/FlightSimMovies/AcesHigh/Ah2Missions/Ah2OfflineMissionsFullPage.htm

There are 10 missions there for version 2.12.4.  Nine of those missions have also been recompiled for the current version 2.26.3. You could try the 2.26.3 versions on your 2.25.2 and they will probably work, but you may need to ignore various minor problems with mission and message timing.

I hope this helps!

First off let me say thank you for reply! But I am wondering where can I get 2.12.4? And this map http://techvideoreview.com/FlightSimMovies/AcesHigh/Ah2Missions/EuroMix/EuroMixPage01Full.htm does it include the actual bombers that are needed to be escorted? :salue

Thanks a lot! I would ask how to start a mission but I don't wanna seem like a complete idiot ( and how to install missions )

Ah thank you! Now one last question and then I'm good, can fleets sink if you bomb them enough.

Yes, you can sink ships if you damage them sufficiently. Offline, you can determine the "hardness" of ships, which makes it easier (or harder) to sink them.

When he spoke of "Older One", I think he was referring to old version 2.12.4 of Aces High, which DOES work well for offline missions. A great many people are using it with success.

As for the current version of Aces High (V2.26.3), it looks like he got at least one offline mission working with it too. I know I've got 7 published missions updated for and working with V2.26.3, using the "workaround" to overcome the bug in the Mission Editor, as discussed in the Mission Editor forum. See the posting of 12Dec2011 in this thread for details:
