If you need this immediately, I suggest you follow Brian Ripley's advice.
This probably involves downloading a source tar file of the R package
and finding the Fortran code in library/spatial/src/. The Fortran should be
edited to generate 3D patterns (it's not hard: everywhere you see 'x' and 'y'
just include 'z'). Then also edit the R interface to the Fortran.

If you can wait about 3 months, we will be releasing an upgrade of 
the R package `spatstat' that will deal with 3D point patterns, 
including simulation of the Strauss process in 3D.
