Aces High Version 2.27 Released
January 25, 2012
|
A new version of Aces High is now available for download. You can update via the in-game autoupdater. This version features a number of graphical enhancements, adds the Fi 156 Storch and manned 88mm flak. Read the 2.27 Patch 2 information page for more for details on manually updating and changes in the new version.
Note that this is a much larger than usual patch download (175 MB) due to all the additional bump map textures and other graphics changes. A new hi-res texture pack is also required if you are running at a max texture size of 1024 or greater. You can manually download this file or you can use the new auto-downloader to have it download in the background while you are playing. The auto-downloader does download at a slower rate so as not to interfere with gameplay.
UPDATE 1/26 - We incremented the release to Patch 1 to fix some issues that cropped up in the new release. We are still at work on a stability problem that some users have reported.
UPDATE 1/31 - Updated to Patch 2 to fix the stability problem and some other minor fixes. |
Fi 156 Storch Screenshots
December 7, 2011
Introducing the Fi 156 Storch for the next version update. The Storch represents a new class of aircraft in the game - the observer plane, a.k.a liaison or spotter aircraft. Well regarded for its amazing STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) capability and great all around visibility, it was a real workhorse but was most famous for its use in the raid at Gran Sasso that rescued Mussolini.
In game it will be available from vehicle bases and ports in addition to airfields. The next version will have a reduction in vehicle icon ranges from aircraft but the Storch will benefit from a longer vehicle icon range capability making it valuable for battlefield recon and support. It will also be able to deploy smoke grenades as markers and can land but not drop vehicle supplies. On top of that it's also just a lot of fun to fly.
Cactuskooler did a nice job on this skin with a paint scheme from Aufkl. Gr. 32. It carries a stork emblem on the cowling. It was nicknamed the Storch, German for stork, because of the long gangly landing gear that resembled a stork's legs.
