Hi. My Aces High was running fine until the update. I installed/ran for the last 2 week and it has made the game totally unplayable . even my wife was asking me why i was pausing the game (as I have told her previously that I can’t pause it )
So I uninstalled the DX9 and DX11 that I have/had to try a totally fresh set up. I Used the DX9 version 90% of the time in FSOs – Scenarios And MA .
So I went to the Hitech Creations home page got the download / run the installer it was DX11 . Went to play and I get a aces high failure on my screen I have tried 5 times now and cant get the game to even play.
Can you please send me a link that works for DX9 as I’m unable to find it .
Regards Mark aka Picko (9Giap)

The DX9 version comes with the DX11 version. If you have installed the game to the default location, use the file manager (folder icon on the task bar) to navigate to C:\Hitech Creations\Aces High III. Once in that folder scroll down to "aceshigh9.exe". Right click, select "more" and then "create desktop icon". Drop that on the desktop and use it to start the game.
This will start the game in DX9 version. Try this and let us know how it works out for you.
