Topic: I cannot see my weapons fire

Ok, just noticed the Radeon Card....

Downgrade your drivers to one of the following :

catalist 3.7

Catalist 3.6

Catalist 2.6

Catalist 2.3

then go into your SFC 3 game directory and find the SFC3.exe

right click on the file and select properties..

click on compatibility tab at top

make sure nothing has a checkmark in it...

click OK

run game to see if this works.. if not, then go back into the Compatibility tab...

put a checkmark in "Disable Visual Themes" and click OK

Try game..

if game still does not work, then try a different video driver.. make sure to reset your color settings back to 16 bit.. once you find that game is working.. try raising your desktop color lever first to 24 bit then to 32 bit.. if problems occue .. revert to a lower color setting...

Hope that this information helps...

I'm having the same problem. I'm using a Radeon 9700. Tried all the suggested courses of action: Disable Visual Themes, downgrade Catalyst, etc. Never had this problem "before" - I've played SFC3 perfectly on this system until I recently reinstalled it.

Dont forget the latest nvidia drivers completely ruining the game...  

How so?  I just installed the 52.16 drivers and the game appears purtier than ever on
my GeForce FX 5900 Ultra.

Thanks,

raedon 9000 here had simalar problems in the beginning  am now running updated drivers but ended up removing catylst entirely there are tools at ati's site to do this also got rid of the multimedia thing.  I still have access to card controls and everyting is working fine . Dunno if it'll help but it worked for me unless I stumbled on something else accidently without knowing it.

this was sent to me from staff at raedon after I sent them a very  nasty email about their products
