I got Elite Force working on a modern PC, which mostly just involved installing it weirdly and manually adjusting the resolution in a config file. Shadows are glitched out and solid black, but I can turn them off.
And I know it's partly nostalgia talking, but this game is wonderful. They just don't make games like this anymore. The little quips, the dumb stuff you can do. Turning on Red Alert and making Janeway storm out of her office as Chakotay yells at you.
Also gonna play Colony 7 as well.
It's Y2K again, people.
