I can't get the game to load...

I keep getting missing MSSTDFMT.DDL file...

I downwloaded the missing file from the web site but it doesn't appear to be installing...

Ok can I install it manually and if so what file and where do I paste it into...

I believe .dll's have to be "installed" but it's early and only had one cup of coffee! I can't recall the exact proceedure but:

"If it boots completely, you can use System File Checker (sfc.exe) to repopulate any missing or damaged 'Windows' dll's.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/222471/EN-US/"


Perhaps do a search.

OK, On a scale of 1 to 10, I would say that the installation this add on was for me about at a 9 (LOL)..

But I did get it to run finally and I must say that it's very cool..

Now I'm tweeking the options to my likeing...

Its a lot of fun guy's thanks for all of the hard work..

Really wrong thread to post issues Paarma, repost it in a new thread and I'll try to help. All the other posts re problems here are totally wrong place too hey ho..

Combat FS patch links are dead. They're now on an "aspx" page instead of "asp":

Thanks for heads up MonkGF

I am grateful for all the wonderful free Red Baron enhancements enjoyed over the years and am reluctant to complain about the difficulty I am experiencing finding out how to get started with OFF, especially as I am aware that many of the same talented people I already owe thanks to are the same people creating OFF.

That said, I spent several hours scanning the OFF website and Sim Outhouse OFF forum without finding a thread describing recommended system requirements for OFF or a basic tutorial for OFF newbies. I'm lucky if I can find time to fly in tournment games with my RB squad and can't pore over 256 pages of topics at a forum to learn about the next game I'll probably fall in love with.

So far I've learned I should buy the $25 cd version of CFS3 at Amazon rather than the $10 dvd version for XP only. That discovery took a couple hours. Is there somewhere I can "read up" on optimal system/hardware requirements and the steps needed to install and play this great new game?

I would have posted at Sim-Outhouse but my Email address leheureux <at> hotmail.com was rejected. I just got a message that allowed me to register manually, but am not able to post there yet. S! Hex

Hey Hex!
