Never did get glidedos or any other glide emulator to work well and I could never go back to directdraw in RB3D. If Sierra had recoded RB3D for directx they might still be selling it today.

Bought my first computer, and then went to "Fry's" in LA and bought Red Barron. I returned it the next day. Pry wasn't 3D then though.

I actually ordered the Full Canvas Jacket add-on a few months ago. I just got an email saying he's finished the patch and is my copy is in the mail. I will let you guys know if I think it was worth the $28.

The flight model started to get bad and buggy with the patches.  Remember the Albatross, when it would get shot in the wings, the climb rate would soar?  Actually that went for many planes.  And the irrecoverable spins.

my main problem with the game was the FM uneffected by fuel/ammo loads.  and with the inability to capture bases it ultimately came down to a big furball with people just respawning and flying back in.

but I do miss that game, I think it was my main game for a longer period than any other.

Does this new 3D wrapper contain a bunch of patches for RB 3D? Or is it strictly a 3D wrapper?

I'm just wondering if this would make it worth dragging the game out of storage, downloading the super patch from Sierra and giving this a try again.

Any thoughts?
