Wow I am going to have to check that out by the looks of those screen shots. My return to AH may be delayed a little longer. :D

RB2/3D was the reason I bought my first computer and my introduction to online combat..It's great offline and on!!!...I had given up on it when my Voodoo 2 wouldn't work without conflicts with my TNT2 and now GF3.

I tried to DL the wrapper but the link didn't work..Anyone else able to get it?(and can you send it my way?)..:)

The link works Sirloin. You may have to have a couple of tries at it like I did. Seems to fail but eventually works. I got it on the 3rd attempt

Any difficulty, Sirloin? The installation instructions said it wasn't simply an install and play kinda thing...

Man I sure wish someone would make a new version of that game. It has been one of my favorite air combat sims for years.

When I was running Voodoo vidcards, RB2D worked fine with my TM gear.

The two listed here (http://www.glidos.net/baron.html). You don't need anything else.

I think... RB23d will only recognize multiple controllers if they are considered 1 through windows.

perhaps CH manager can do it I am not sure.

But I know it wouldn't support my old usb ms ppro with my usb ch pro peds.  It would only see the controller on ID0

Glide also works with my Radeon 64mb DDR. Still playing around with the "ini" file as I get bad stutters if I look straight up into the sky but apart from that it looks great. Just like it used to on my old 450 and Voodoo II. Hate the view system though :(
