(Free official download link to RBR in this discussion) Where to buy Richard Burns Rally?

[Dewald Nel]

Hi

I really want to buy this game(sim), but I can't find any place to buy it online, and there certainly is no place I can buy it from in South Africa. Please help me, tell me where it can be bought?

Thanks in advance.

It used to be obtainable via this link:

https://uk.gamesplanet.com/game/richard-burns-rally-download--2693-1
(Look for a link in my post below.)

However, it seems gamesplanet don't have this game for sale any more.
And due to your location, your best bet is to get the game illegitimately.

While not many people like doing that, unless you find the game purchasable online or a website that can ship to your location, it may be your only option. I can provide a download if you are willing to get the game in this manner.

To be honest, there's not a huge amount of reason to get this game legitimately anyway.
All of the copyright holders are gone, other than those accquired by Square Enix, and the last thing they care about is this game. They are the only reason this game isn't on GOG, and while someone like them might get this game's license, it's highly unlikely, and won't happen soon by any means. This game may as well be considered abandonware by now.

Good luck on getting this great game, either way.

Idk about OP, but I would appreciate it if you could share a good link to the game.

I'm uploading a zip that has RBR installer + 1.02 patch + fixup.dll along with detailed instructions in the readme, make sure you read it, it took far longer than it should have to make.
However, said zip file is 1.14 GB, so it'll be around 12 hours to a day before it's uploaded, thanks to my awful internet connection.

[Keanu Reeves]

Alright, will do. And thanks for your dedication, I dont think I could stand it to have anything upload for 12 hours or more, so I really appreciate you taking the time to do it.

[Dewald Nel]

@_NerfHerder54_ I did indeed see the Gamesplanet link as you posted, but indeed it was dead already.

Regarding the slow upload, I guess you're also from South Africa(your username suggests so). If so, yeah, our speeds are dogshit, especially on upload.

Here should be a working link:

Make sure to read the readme, and enjoy!

Link works fine, and the game installed without issue following everything layed out in the readme. Havent done anything outside of dicking around in the rally school, but everything seems to work just fine.

[Suzume]

Glad to hear it, hope OP and whoever else sees this gets it running fine!

[Scrubdapubs]

So that link will download the game?

[Suzume]

Yes, just follow the instuctions in the included readme once downloaded.

[Scrubdapubs]

OK, so first of all, thank you VERY much for sharing this. I really appreciate it. I just have a question, while in game it says RBRDLL v1.3 under patches and on the status side it says disabled. I added the plugin and i don't think it worked for me.

[Scrubdapubs]

ok, so basically even though it says disabled it's really not? i can show u a screenshot if you want.

Yeah I haven't launched through there. So what do I click in the game folder to launch the game? I've always just launched the game through the shortcut
