That is sad 🙁 Too bad he couldn't be more specific. My guess is that he think he needs the source code to make the change which he does not have access to at the current moment. Still I wouldn't give up hope, some bright individual with reverse engineering / crack skills might find a way 😀

Was the file posted here the demo or the patch for the retail version? If it's the patch please someone reupload. PM me if you need the demo, I have that one laying around. I took a quick Google search and it was hard to find.

Impressive that you got in contact with him. Did he say why he couldn't help? Was it because of legal issues or because of technical?

I also bought my board from that guy. It took about 14 days to arrive (about 10 working days) in Norway. The tracking was way off, it arrived when the tracking said it was still in China.

Had the same issue as janskjaer when I wanted to test out this game after so many years with DosBox. Whatever I did I got the: "please copy to the TACTCOM directory" error. Solution: 1. Do a clean install of EF2000. Do not run the game or any config. 2. Get the original german _ef2000.exe file and …

It's available on several abandonware sites and have been for several years. While the developer still is around, back in the days, it was common that the IP was owned by the publisher (think for example about publisher SCi which took Carmageddon away from Stainless Games and gave it to Torus for …

The solutions given in this thread are spot on if you want to run these two games on a retro computer. Both games ran fine on my Compaq (200mhz mmx, 80 mb SDRAM, Voodoo 2 SLI), though Screamer 2 always crashed when I tried to exit the game. Though it took some trial and error to get it working. …
