Welcome to the War Forces "Real Front Server" RB3d-players patch !! or short: WF-RFSv1.3 version 1.3 release candidate. version 1.2 is still in this download. You will want the High Quality patch from http://rensg.home.xs4all.nl, for much improved graphics, sound and overall game experience. this patch contains all other necessary files. put this zipfile in C:\Sierra ( c:\ might be another drive letter like D:\ or E:\ most people have it in C:\ and unzip it there, while keeping the folder structure (default zip setting, take 'unzip here' option ). It wil unpack everything in the RedBaron3D folder, all the files at the right places. To activate this patch : I assume you use the rssplyr.exe that is included, it is in your RedBaron3d folder together with Baron.exe and BaronMMP.exe, to manage the patch. ( and all your other multi/shell/3dpatch/simpatch patches, if you want ) Fire it up, go File->FM-switcher from the menu, you are now in the patch manager. You will see 3 columns next to each other: Look for WF-RFSv1.2 in the first column. double click on it. in the next column, select it, click on "Turn on" button below it installs itself in multi you are done. enjoy. ______________________ to uninstall: in the third column, double click WF-RFSv1.2 then click "Turn Off" button below. rssplyr removes the patch files (and only these...) from multi. you are done. _______________________________ IF YOU DO NOT USE Rssplyr.exe, YOU MUST MANAGE THE PATCH MANUALLY (it is in multi folder, c:\sierra\redbaron3d\multi\WF-RFSv1.2 (c: could be another drive letter )) and I assume you know your way around with explorer, file copy and removal, etc. And can repair a broken Redbaron install. Do not ask for help. sorry. information: WF RFS has a fmparams.dat, but it is NOT a flight model modification. Only the info text in the file is changed, to force a different checksum from standard servers. In other words, the fmparams.dat only serves to ensure the server ( i.e. RBST ) that you run this patch. It does NOT change the flightmodel (NFM or AFM) However, you CAN NOT FLY IN A NORMAL server with standard security with this patch. you must turn it off with two clicks, as explained above. features: - Real Frontline ( AA (AA = Anti Aircraft : machineguns and flak guns) / Balloons / trenches / artillery / tanks / tents etc and LOTS of active AA positions ) - villages, towns, factorys are now guarded by AA (machine guns and flak guns ) - trees, farmhouses and shacks and here and there a lonely church - new railway stations, not used in RB before ( but they are Sierra's ) - railway stations and factorys now have numerous machine guns ( factorys had none, before ) - bridges have more protection. - villages, towns are now like Red Baron Single Play : many more houses, shacks etc. - targets are concentrated on the center of the map. RB's maps are 150 x 150 km ( 100 x 100 miles approx) and thus way too big for the modest # of pilots flying these days. Flanders and Island have been adapted. download here: URL: http://rensg.home.xs4all.nl mail: rebs_rens@xs4all.nl rebs_rens@xs4all.nl
