Gr.Viper 131 Posted January 6, 2008 Yup. That's right. Sierra made German vesion of Red Baron 2 avaliable for download free of charge. A little while ago but I learned it just now. http://ftp.sierra.com/sierra/redbaron3d/ Grab the big juicy archive in the /other/ subfolder and then rb3d_spr in /updates/ Then follow installation instructions found here(they also provide links to a couple of other fixes for multiplayer and XP) http://www.fallbabies.com/virtualaces/redbaron/ Then to contunue the stream of freeware goodness I'd suggest installing Hell's Angels superpatch http://www.hellsangels.firstflare.com/main.htm Have no idea what other free stuff goes well with it. Suggestions? P.S. BTW, first Red Baron (EGA version in 16-color palette) is also free. http://files.filefront.com/redbrnexe/;946481;/fileinfo.html Needs DOSBox for real fun though.

Gr.Viper 131 Posted January 8, 2008 Ok... I've overcome my fears and tried it with WFP2 and Campaign Manager and MissionGen. Requires constant tweaking but... Awesome. Fighting Parasol on E.III in 1915 is a completely different experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gr.Viper 131 Posted January 9, 2008 My X-52 Pro trigger button is not recognised by RB3D 'cause I'm not using PPJoy yet. At first it was irritating (I had to plug in simpler joystick to play) but later I actually realised that this bug can be turned into a feature. :umnik2: There were no trigger buttons on flight stick at those times - you can't control throttle, filght and fire at the same time because one free hand is needed to pull the trigger (see "Blue Max"). So now I'm shooting using spacebar only. That really adds immersion and difficulty to 255% AI, engine faiure, fuel mixture control etc Maybe later I'll bind trigger to one of thick switches on X52 base.

Bandy 3 Posted January 18, 2008 Just before FE came out last year, I was about to make an effort at getting RB3D running, but I heard there were some serious hurdles if you didn't have a Voodoo graphics card. How is it running for you now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparkomatic 7 Posted January 19, 2008 Voodoo graphics card? they still exist? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gr.Viper 131 Posted January 19, 2008 Bandy, if you use so called glide wrapper such as dgVoodoo you can run RB3D in Glide mode on most modern video cards. It seems, nVidia fits better for RB3D as ATI cards have a number of glitches. Alhough even for them gameplay is pretty stable and the picture is awesome provided you install some of the superpatches. WOW! Got Alb D.II in my Jasta (using WFP). At first pit looked a lot like in D.I. Then as the new year 1917 came, it felt a bitt different - then I realised that they actually modelled the switch from leaky ear radiators to top-wing mounted ones. I wonder if that means that I won't get an oil leak every other dogfight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+DoctorQuest 125 Posted January 20, 2008 (edited) Voodoo graphics card? they still exist? I still have a perfectly good Voodoo 3 PCI card that I run on a Windows 98 partition specifically for running EAW, RB3D and Jane's F-15. Now, can you BUY one now? That's a different question. Maybe Amazon or eBay...... You'll have to pry mine out of my cold, dead hands. Edited January 20, 2008 by kirbykern Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
