 :airplane: I have a similar problem, but when I try to download it, it freezes my computer when I'm trying, I'm trying to put them on YouTube. What steps are you taking? Like explain what you do. :airplane:

If you're trying to take your recorded film from aces high (a .ahf file) and making it straight into a video file like .avi or .mpeg, it can't be done.  Check out the How to make an Aces High Movie thread stickied in this forum.

I gave up trying to export from the film viewer like that, the quality I always got was awful and it still took all day to export. Get a video capture program (easy to find on Google) and capture the picture part of the film viewer while the film is running. It should let you save it in any number of formats. You'll have the option to capture sound as well, or you can edit and add your own soundtrack for the captured file.

The thread Fulmar suggests has a much, much more detailed discussion on how to do this.
