Title: Coming to the AvA in 2014: Aces High 3000

   Working on a project to push the limits of AH again.  The terrain/set up takes place far in the future on an alien world.  It will contain star fighters (custom 163s, with added ammo & range), starships/motherships & all kinds of custom effects including lasers, out-of-this-world explosions & effects.  Just about anything & everything I can edit in the game will happen to make this something "out of this world".  Right now, building the starships is taking some time, and the finished terrain will probably be the largest terrain download to date (but well worth it, I promise!)  I will bump this thread from time to time when I have some goodies to show.  Sorry I can't make it a Christmas present to all of ya, but it's quite the project.  More to come soon!

Reminds me of that event they did for the convention...the one where they plunked a space station in the middle of the MA and gave the convention attendees spaceships.

Am I the only one who did a double check to see if this was a necro-bump from some April 1st post from years gone by?

No claws fellas.  I don't have access to em.  It will be red 163s vs. custom skin 163s, plus starships blasting away.  The speed of the combat is really gonna test even the best players' skill I believe. :salute

Well, we have the M4(75) with rockets.  Adding any new player-made planes or vehicles to the game is a major no no with HTC.  Plus, since I've never had any computer training whatsoever, I wouldn't even know how.  Sorry.  I will change as much of the game as I'm allowed to per HTC to fit my vision as best as possible, but there won't be any Claws, new aircraft or GVs.  Still, I think I can deliver something mind blowing if all goes as planned.  :salute

I was flying around the mothership and fighting Claws with a D3A-1 the night of that con.

Enable the mighty D3A-1!

I wish HTC would let us fly the Claw offline as well.  I never understood the reluctance, I sometimes think it must be a security related issue around it somehow that keeps it from being available offline.  I never flew it, but flew against it, and it was a pretty fascinating thing to watch.  This AvA event would be a great time to let it loose IMO. (Jedi Mind trick).

Question, how did you give the 163 more range? Last I checked the fuel burn rate modifiers didn't apply to the 163s.

I was informed of that earlier today.  I didn't know that.  The terrain is nowhere near the flying around stage so it would have been an unpleasant surprise to me later.  It will still be all good though.  Increasing the ammo count was/is more important than the fuel. :salute
