Salute! Saludo! Gruß! Salut! Saluto! saudação! from RB3D Recruiting OfficersCome fly the skies of WW1, in Red Baron 3D!
When men were made of steel and planes were made of wood! Hear your opponent grunt if wounded or scream if you shoot him in the head. Have your wings pop of if you over stress them, black out if too many G's are pulled, deal with gun jams, all the while looking at your opponent from mere feet away. Learn to take advantage of each planes strengths or weaknesses and how to exploit your enemies. Whether you live or die an honorable Salute is given.
Brief historyRed Baron a WW1 flight simulation that has been around since 1992 RB, 1995 RBII, 1998 RB3D.

For best graphics it is best to have a voodoo card. Either direct or by using a voodoo 2 with SLI patch through cable. But it works fine in OpenGL or Direct draw, just the graphics are a bit poor until you install the terrain patches.
There are some glide wrappers out there which are being improved each day. This one is about 99% perfected.
