MOH Pacific Assault

Hi,

Any advice for MOH Pacific Assault, getting it installed on win 7..Doesn't go past disk 2...Just wondered if there are certain time tested tricks for getting installed in Win 7 or if this just wasn't compatible for Win 7 64 bit?

Thanks!

I am playing Mohaa & Mohaa Spearhead on Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit and Pacific Assault came after these two so I have to assume there shouldn't be a problem.

Perhaps the CD discs are dirty or scratched? I know mine were and I had to make ISOs out of it.

Other than that, do not Autorun but instead go to Explore folder or view folders and Right click on executable and either... Run as Administrator or Run with compatible mode

Tried to install PA several times and got a message about a redundancy file..then installation shut down, once on disc 1, once on disc 2...

tried to install as administrator and also tried to install via compat mode but nothing seemed to work..

so couldn't get it installed, let alone try to play it!

maybe I should just try games made for Win 7

I had a problem installing MoH Breakthrough as well, something about pixomatic.dll and as soon as I installed patch 2.40 it went away... you guys may want to try installing patches for those games.

I am stuck on Breakthrough right now (I hate Bosses) but as soon as I am done, I'll try installing this one.

stupid question but you can install the patch and then install the game? I had always installed the game and then patched..(when I was able to install the game!)

My apologies, I did not understood it completely.

I think I have the Editors Edition or something like this I think it was called and, I have not check but I don't recall having 2 CD's o 2 DVD's... are you sure you are talking about Pacific Assault and not Allied Assault... or any other game perhaps?

it was MOHPA, had 4 discs I think..

AstaLaVista · Feb 8, 2011

Ok so, when you say "it doesn't go pass disc 2", what exactly does it tell you? what's the error message?

Perhaps all you need to do is clean the discs a bit?

it's ok, I got it working on a laptop with XP, even though it didn't meet specs..

Not sure how realistic it is to send a new Marine on a PT boat to the Arizona but lets give it a try anyway!

AstaLaVista · Feb 9, 2011

As far as I can remember, this title was the one I like the least of all the MoH games, perhaps because I played it in Realistic and it didn't show me anything, like crosshairs or a map where I need it to go or every map was pretty much the same once you got into the island... I don't know.

I am going to go through it again because there is nothing good (FPS wise) to play at the moment and it seems that I am going to have to install it sooner than I had expected because I am stuck at a part on Breakthrough that I can't seem to be able to pass... did I mention that I hate playing Bosses with a passion? I mean, taking on multiple tanks (5 or more) with mortar is not even surreal, its just plain stupid and annoying part of a game that they rushed out to the public.

yep, the mortars in the house were a pain...you had to hit at least 2 or 3 with the mortars (good luck with that!) and then make sure you left a lot of bazooka rounds to get the last 3-4 tanks..even then, it was a close call..

I hate the gauntlets in the different MOH games, usually riding in a jeep getting shot from every angle and getting to where you had to go with like 5 health left, probably the Pearl Harbor PT Boat opening..
but the mortars at the house were maybe the biggest pain, just because they were hard as hell to aim..

AstaLaVista · Feb 9, 2011

That's another thing, I have read every "Walkthrough" that I have found on the internet and they all talk about the Bazooka. Well, I have wasted like 2 or 3 deaths looking for the damn Bazooka around the house and even outside but to no avail... I don't see a Bazooka anywhere so even if I can get close to getting rid of the tanks, once they are to close for mortars, I am doomed!

Yes, that PT boat ride was classic and there are other parts that I remember hating with passion about this game. I believe that further down on MohPA, there is a map where you are on a boat and you have to destroy missiles that are coming to you from submarines or something similar... IIRC, that is where I left the game back in 05, 06 or whenever the game was launched.

:shock:

I think the bazooka was in the upstairs room on the right side of the room but unless you get 2, maybe at least 3 tanks, with the mortars, there is no way to finish...the bazookas sail so you have to wait until the tanks get relatively close before you can count on hits..and the mortars are hit or miss, unless anyone has figured out a sure shot method..I just save after every lucky hit lol..must have saved like ten times..not a part of the game that you want to replay..I'd prefer to go through sniper town!

Getting 3, 4 or even 5 tanks with the mortars is not the problem, what gets me is that the damn Bazooka is no where to be found so I can't finish the tanks when they get to close... I swear to God, I know I kill 2 tanks on the opposite side of the stairs going up, 2 more where the idiot teammate is calling on the radio and then 2 more from the other side but, by the time I am done with these 2, 3 more are getting close to the house and w/o the bazooka I am toast!!

I guess I am going to have to reload from the beginning and see what happens.

rogbrez · Feb 13, 2011

I can't recall if i had a bazooka already or not..if not, it was upstairs,maybe over to the right window, with several rockets..but the bazooka tends to sail from a great distance so it was good on just the nearby tanks...not one of my favorite MOH moments, just like the gauntlet you gotta run on seemingly every game (like PH in MOHPA), where you get blasted from all sides and arrive at your destination with like 5 health left!

2nd disc was the problem for me, I told it to install the data3.cab example: d:\setup\data3.cab that did not work, so I used backspace to erase data3.cab so it looked like d:\setup\

IT WORKED - no problems!
good luck

P.S. don't forget to right-click the launch game icon and run as administrator or you'll get booted from PunkBuster.
