Good afternoon. Any updates to this issue? Appears none of the files for the expansion packs are being installed when Allied Assault is installed. I tried it again today with a fresh install of the EA App as well as MoHAA but still no luck in launching the expansion packs.

Still nothing? The DLCs are the only reason i got the game, its kinda anoying to be honest
I know this issue has been posted since last June. EA figure this stuff out already. This is the reason why no one likes EA. Payed money for a game that is over 2 decades old and you cant get the dlc to work still?
I am having the same issue with downloading MOHAA. Any updates on this?
Dude it's been over a year and this still hasn't been fixed, I still cannot play the expansions for this game. Do you guys just not care? Not enough money in fixing what you advertise? Why even bother listing the War Chest on here if it's literally just the base game? I cannot believe this company makes so much money
Same issue here, would be nice if there was a fix, even if it means launching the expansions manually from the game directory (where they are installed, but launching them manually just brings up the EA app again).
So will we be getting gour money back? Because I bought the warchest, not just Allied Assault
There is a workaroud:
Move your MOHAA.exe file into a backup directory and rename the expansion's exe you wanna play as MOHAA.
It sucks we have to deal with this *, but at the very least with this method you can play the expansions
Been over a year!!! This is very poor customer support. Is there a fix yet?
- @Hands777 yah this is an interesting problem, i bought MOH Warchest a few years ago, i played through them fine back then, i was able to boot up spearhead sometime this year. Today i find i cant boot either of the expansions. Im not much into legal stuff, but i bought a product that had 3 games, it now only has 1, theres gotta be some sale laws being broken here or something
Thank you for this it worked. Kinda ridiculous and if you want to play them all you’ll need 3 folders labeled accordingly since it changes the icon and move them around depending which you want to play.
The same issue - I do not know how to solved it.
Hi. I'm new to this issue, but experiencing the same. It seems that EA's fix is to stop selling MOH War chest, and do nothing. Given that they are giving an ambigious 'we're working on it' answer for more than a year, it would seem it's a way of delaying people from starting a class action suit. I bought MOH Warchest and can't play the expansions that I've paid for. ....That's whatever you want to call it. Theft, fraud, EA Standard Operation Procedure.
it turns out that in win11 everything works fine for me - the game icons are installed not in the application but in the main menu and have to be launched there. It works for me without any problems.
Of course, I mean: click on the win11 icon - and there you have to find them.
I cant boot any of them anymore, not only does it not show spearhead and breakthrough listed in origin, when i click play on allied assault it attempts to boot after i click boot in safe mode, then it closes after showing a grey screen. i suppose there is some sort of workaround, but this is just unfortunate, i played these fine some time last year, now the entire game doesn't work.

Hi everyone,
Apologies for the delayed response on this.
It looks like a fix for this issue went out some time ago. Has anyone run into this same problem recently? This workaround worked for me until Origin became EA. I recently tried the workaround and got a message telling me:
"You don't have access
This title may have been downloaded to your device by another user who owns the game. Log in to a different account or restart the app to try again."
I restored the .exe files to their original names and now I get the same message as above. WTH
Hi Kent, I recently got the Warchest via EA Play. Initially I could get Allied Assault to launch, but now I cannot launch ANY of the games. Allied Assault and both Expansions crash and fail to launch. I've repaired, ran as admin, ran in compatability for Windows 8, 7, and XP, and in the game's "Safe Mode" option it gives after it fails to start. This game simply does not work on Windows 10.
Hi Kent,
The fix that you're referring to... Is there a link you can provide?

@EA_Kent I have just installed the latest version of the EA app, and I can confirm that Medal of Honor Allied Assault expansions can't be launched. The EA app also keeps showing the wrong version of Allied Assault. I have the Warchest edition, but EA app keep showing that I have the standard edition. However, the two expansion packs show in the add-on menu, but they can't be launched from the EA app or even from the executable file.
Also, there is a new serious issue affecting NVIDIA users where the game crash on startup claiming that it is related to a file called (nvoglv32.dll) which is related to NVIDIA GPU driver.
Thanks a lot for your assistance. - Peter7803 years agoRising Scout
@Minimike96 @NATAS-FO-NWAPS Please install a much older NVIDIA driver, and it will work. I have just installed NVIDIA Game Ready driver 516.94, and the game finally launches now. Even the expansions now launch but not directly from EA app as it was in Origin. You have to open the game folder and launch them from the executable files for Spearhead and Breakthrough.
June, 26, 2023: My Medal of Honor War Chest was working on Windows 11 until the Nvidia driver was updated in April 2023. Following the previous reply, I rolled back the driver to an older one. I chose a driver a Windows 11 GTX 1050ti on Dell XPS8930 from before 2023.
The drive roll back worked. Medal of Honor is now working on the EA App on my desktop.
