Red Baron 3D Where?

22 July 2005, 09:02 PM

Anyone know where I can buy red baron 3d thats not used and in another language?
I checked amazon.com, but they have used copies that are scratched or foreign language versions..

I know its been a long time since the sim's release, but when it first came out I was in college and didn't have much time for sims

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I managed to purchase two editions of RB3D on e-Bay that were still shrink-wrapped in the box, plus numerous editions that were still in the factory wrapper without the box. Every one that I won at auction was a genuine factory version and not an "upgrade" version--beware these "upgrarde" examples because while some are indeed serviceable CD's as often as not you will be disappointed.

I never paid as much on e-Bay for a copy of RB3D as I did when I purchased it directly from Sierra when the game was first offered for sale. There is a point, however, at which one must decide that he will offer a bid of "X" amount and go not one penny further.

It is nice to own an original copy. I now own four, plus one example that is still in the factory wrapper. I also gave another copy--complete with factory box--to a worthy friend.

Good luck in your search.

Get it free!

Click here:-> http://www.wings-of-valor.net/

Then click on "Resources", "Get RB3D"

Once you've done that, get "Hells Angels" Superpatch (which is also free):

Hi FIC.

No, I don't play online but I have been toying with the idea lately. Is it possible to play online with any of the superpatches, HA, FCJ or WFP? Or does it have to be a standard RB3D install?

If you can give me any info on how to get started I'd be grateful.

Thanks.

Yes you can very well play with some of the patches, I dont know about online play with WFP or FCJ. But I play with HElls Angels patch, there are 2 of them. the single player one that requires its own re-install meaning you can have the HASP and the HAMMP installed in the same Red Baron 3D folder. Has to be seperate installs. Very simple to do. But you will need the mp1708 multiplayer upgrade to play online to see all the servers. We used to average about 30-40 planes everynite in a server a few years ago. Now it seemered down to 15-20. Still have many Squadron wars tho

Thanks for that FIC, maybe we'll meet above the RB3D lines soon.

All the best.
