Aces High General Discussion / Re: I have never logged off at the beginning of a tour change before

The daily scores/rank are automatic.  The tour reset has a bunch of things hitech has to do to close out one tour and start the next one.

The leather hat I already have, too hot for that anyway, and I'm positive the pork pie number will go fabulously with my boa. I can't wait to hum down there riding my e bike!    Thanks sweeties. Now I just need footwear and a fanny pack and this big boy is gone.

Anyhoo...back to the subject. I always thought the tour switch and daily scores were updated automatically. I've noticed the change when I got back into the game 3 or 4 months ago and thought it was a new thing. I don't think it means a whole lot either way, but it would be nice to have some consistency. It can't be that hard to do.

Didn't want to start a new thread....so

Some MAY find this interesting
I was going through and deleting old pics and found this.
Person on the left is a good old friend and sound engineer "Too Tall" (6' 6"), worked with a lot of high profile artist. We worked together a lot in IATSE Union. He's 71 now.
He sent me this pic prolly 10-15 yrs ago.

The person on the right is who he grew up with on the south side of Chicago, a personal friend.

THE Leroy Brown
Pic literally taken in the south side of Chicago at a bar they frequent(ed)

I have a grandson who is a 911 dispatcher. He had to take a lie detector test to get the job. One of the questions they asked him "have you ever had sex with an animal?"

Duh.  We humans are animals.  I've been accused with that name from many women in my past.

Aces High Bug Reports / Re: Stick loosing all mapping

« Last post by Wiley on October 15, 2025, 02:39:50 PM »

This one has been fairly long standing from what I've seen, as far as I know nobody has a consistent procedure for reproducing it.

When I changed to my new throttle, I had something similar happen.  Just out of nowhere most/all of my mappings vanished a couple times during the course of setting it up.  The weirdest one was I changed a button mapping while I was in flight, and everything on whichever control I did it on went blank.  Axes and buttons.

Since then, my 2 rules for mappings are:

- After the session I make a change, take a backup of the Settings folder
- Never change mappings in flight, only in tower

Since I've been doing that, I haven't had a mishap with mappings since.  I've had it happen as you describe as well, in between logins.  Again, I've never seen someone show a procedure that can reproduce it, which really sucks.

The one thing with configuration on my setup that drives me nuts though is my microphone volume level gets reset at random in between logins.  It's at the point I check my voice settings every time I log in.  For my mic to work normally for people to hear me I need to set volume to full and boost to about 80%.  If I log out and back in, it very often reverts to volume at about 70%, no boost.  Sometimes, it doesn't.  No idea why, but it seems to be something vaguely similar to the mapping issue.
