Title: Lost all my settings.
Post by: Skywarp7 on April 11, 2018, 11:03:11 PM
After the error on the patch, I downloaded the game off the website and lost all of my settings and skins. Is there a way for me to get them back?

They are not lost if you did not uninstall the old version before installing the new version.  If you uninstalled the old version, then they are all lost.

There was a change to the full game installer though.  It will force the installation into a folder named "Aces High III".  If your original game installation folder is not named that, then look for the "Aces High III" folder in the original game folder.  That is where the game is running from.

If the above is true, then copy your old "settings", "skins", and "ah3terr" folder to the new installation path.

By the way, I just made another change to the full game installer.  If it detects the path you selected is the same path as the last time the game was run, then it will use that path and not append "Aces High III to it.

That new installer is live now.

Thanks Skuzzy. What you told me was a big help. I have my settings back. I noticed my reticle color is white instead of red on one of my planes. I had also modified mode 3. Is there a way to restore that modification I had made originally before this patch?

Try copying the "sights" folder from your old installation to the new "sights".
