EHM The Blue Line

It seems that Windows 11 runs EHM 04 without any issues, there is only 1 tweak needed.

Install the game (I have it on disc)

Once installed, go to your game directory - data - fonts - humanist (find this font and go to properties and call it humanist1) click apply or OK.

Go to the forum here and get the EHM 1.05 PC patch (if you are using CD rom) and update the game.

Game runs right away, no need for compat mode or anything else!

1.07 update appears to break the game, though, and it won't load no matter what workaround I tried.

This is great news! Thanks for sharing.

I sometimes load up EHM 2004 in order to look at the database and have been running it on XP via VirtualBox. I installed Windows 11 a few weeks ago on my laptop, so I'll give your instructions a try.

I enjoy trying to fill the MEN Arena with the Phoenix. Closest I have ever got is 9000 fans in a previous save. Took around 5 seasons!

Got it working! Not been able to play it since I upgraded from XP.

Enjoying my first season ever playing the British National League! (With Newcastle. Sorry Arch!)

Re-naming one font file, and sticking to the 1.0.5 patch did it.

A couple of weeks ago I bought a new laptop and installed Windows 11. When I wanted to download EHM 2004 to look at the database I got an error. I ended up not being able to resolve it and installed the windows 10 version and also installed the windows 10 key reddit to activate the system. After that I was able to run the database without any problems. Now I don't want to install windows 11 again and check your conditions because I might not be able to. So I will try to do your conditions on my old pc. If I can do it, I will do it on my laptop.

I still have the game working on my Windows 11 so you should be fine

I also run it on Windows 11 and it's fine from my end.
