Elite Force Expansion Pack Problem

[Smellincoffee]

I recently found my Elite Force and Elite Force Expansion pack CDs and installed them onto a Windows XP machine that would run them. (They're inoperable on my 64bit Vista.) When I ran the expansion pack and loaded holomatch, I saw the maps and new player models there....but the new multiplayer modes were absent. The game acknowledges that they exist: if I create a match and start playing, there's a deactivated button to change classes. I can see Specialties matches when using the in-game browser to look for multiplayer games, but when creating a match I see no way to create an Action Hero, Specialties, Disintegration, or Assimilation game of my own. Should I try a reinstall, or did I just miss something here?

If I recall correctly, there's an option on the auto-run application to install the bonus MP content.

To get Elite Force to run in a 64 bit OS..

. Grab your CD and copy all files to a folder some­where on your computer
2. Go to the direc­tory you copied all of the files and go to the setup folder
3. Right click on the setup.exe file inside the setup folder and click the com­pata­bil­ity tab and set these settings .
a. Check run com­pat­i­bil­ity mode and set it to Win­dows 2000
b. Check dis­able desk­top composition
c. Check Dis­able dis­play scal­ing on high DPIsettings
d. Check Run this pro­gram as an administrator


after a LONG wait, it installed and I've been happily playing this game ever since...

Including the Starbase 11 TOS mod for the game...

^ The issue must be with certain specific 64-bit configurations, because I installed EF on my 64-bit Win 7 machine the regular way with no problem.
