Game summary

EF2000 v2.0 is a US-only compilation of an updated DOS version of EF2000 and the Windows 95 version Super EF2000. There are two DOS products included: EF2000 (basic version) EF2000 TACTCOM (add-on) The DOS versions have optional 3D hardware accelerated support for 3Dfx Vodoo or Rendition Verite cards. The DOS versions also have a slightly different network functionality and cannot connect to the European version of EF2000/TACTCOM releases. The Windows 95 version is similar to the basic DOS EF2000 game and has DirectX support with software rendering. This US Windows 95 version is network play compatible with the European version of Super EF2000.
First released: Feb 1997

Play Super EF2000 on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Super EF2000 on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.

Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.

Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).

Super EF2000 installation steps for Mac

Step 1

Step 3

Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install Super EF2000 like you would on any PC.
