There are issues in EE2: AOS in ver. 160002.
1. The Tundra climate crashes the game on start.
2. The Temperate climate causes a huge performance degradation on the Enhanced Version.
The small size hotfix update will be released ASAP but I'm still trying to fix issue no. 2.

WARNING: None of Empire Earth 2 installers require a change of "Internet Explorer proxy settings". They were released in 2005, before digital-download was common and they work on Windows 11. If you read some guide to change IE proxy: you downloaded a virused, pirated installer.
