Very nice USRanger,  I had a lot of fun flying this mission and the terrain was beautiful.

Sorry, I am lost.
I see a missn2.res file and a missn2.fld file. Where do those go?

In the other zip folder I see an upper case Rising Sun Raiders folder, where does that go?

I placed the lower case rising sun raiders folder in the offline missions folder of AH. That is the only 1 of 4 I knew what to do with.

Thanks in advance.

Both the missn2.res & missn2.fld files go in your AHII->AHTERR folder.  The .res is the map and the .fld is so the fields are assigned correctly.

The Raiders.mis goes into your AHII->OFFMISS folder.  That is the mission.

The Raiders folder that contains all the .wavs goes into your AHII->MISSRES folder.  It's all the "special effects" needed for the mission.  Place the entire folder in your MISSRES folder.  Like so:

Trying again.

CDT both times I have tried this. 

Will download again later and give it another shot. Looks like a good mission Ranger.

It's a great one daddog

daddog, I was having this same problem.

If your Aces High files are NOT installed in the usual C:/Program Files/whatever folder, then what you need to do is to copy the path of where they actually are installed.

Then, use a text editor (I use Notepad because it's easy and it works) to open up the ".mis" file.  Scroll down until you see an "EVENTS" bit, and you'll see there's a file path under that (which will be the default path for where Aces High is installed).  Then, open up the "Replace" thing, and type in the first few bits of that file path you just found, and then replace it with the appropriate bits of YOUR AHII installation.  Once you've done that for the whole file, just save, close, and it should all work.

Hope this helps, sorry if it's a bit long-winded.

Daddog, is AH installed in your D: by chance?

[BOOT]

I finally got it to work...

I had to create a missres folder in my AH directory, there was no folder of that name in my program.  When I did that and moved the files that were supposed there into that folder the mission worked like a charm.

Really a neat mission USRanger.  The music and radio really added a new touch to the game experience.  I hope you have a number of missions that you are going to create dancing in your head.  This was really a neat experience.

PS>  Thanks Yossarian for your help on getting the files where they should go.

[daddog]

Thanks Yoss! That did the trick.
Correct Ranger, I had it on a drive that was not my "C" drive.

Fun mission! Well done sir!

That was the best mission I have ever flown.  Thanks.

[USRanger]

Well thx .  I've got another one almost finished that I think is even better.  Same map, but on the winter terrain side.  Russians vs. Germans. Has all those extra goodies also, but I think the action is even more intense.  I haven't counted em up, but it's around a 50 vs. 50 fight with around 3-8 planes per side ever making it home.  The mission has been finished, it's just taking me a bit to get the time to place all the add-on goodies in there.
