Perhaps you could do a little guide on the forums for us? We wouldn't have to contact you individually then!
Congratulation on getting it working though!

I guess. but there are 2 or 3 files you would have to download. I was going to put em in a temp public file storage so they wouldn't have to worry bout getting the wrong file.
plus I have rather big sausage fingers, I would rather talk it through.
but if you all really want it, I can do it

If you could add your necessary files to this: https://ufplanets.com/showthread.php...ommand-3-Setup ; guide, that would be great, as the guide works for prior to Windows 8, still yet to go through and try on Windows 10.

I too have the game working without any mods, just the last official patch.
The problems wasn't getting it to work on win8,
The problem I was having was video cards, that game seems to be unfriendly with several video cards!
I can't even get it to run on my winXP!
That's not the only problem, the second problem I have is getting it to play multiplayer.
If someone has a guide (which I see now they do) I can help contribute to get it working for singleplayer and skirmishes, but having it work on multiplayer is bit beyond my intell.
Once I get my other 2 projects finished, I have no problem helping if it's requested.

no prob on adding it to the guide, but I am not all that computer savvy. I took a look at your thread and it was closed.
basically for me to get SFC3 to work on my comp.
I reinstalled game from disk(have a generic CD key I got off web, but it works)
then I installed the patch (534_b)
then I went to a website and got the d3d8.dll and placed that right in the main directory of SFC3
I then had to go into SFC3 command files and modify a sfc.ini file cause you cant have it fullscreen(I think you look for windowed=0 and turn the 0 into a 1. be advised though you may also have to grant security permissions so you can modify the .ini file)
after that you lower your screen res to 1024 x 768 and start it up.
I have all the files(including the generic CD key) and as far as I can tell(avast virus checker scanned all files) this is legit and not like a key logger program etc etc etc.

Hey Jojo,
Thanks for sharing this with us! I've been trying to get SFC3 to run on Windows 8, but without succes.
I'll be sure to give it another go on Windows 10 using the info you guys have put up here.
Great work! If more members can get SFC3 up and running, we can see if there's any call for a multiplayer event?

How would this be done? (SFC3 doesn't have TCP/IP Support over Tunngle do they?)

They don't no, but I have hosted multiple matches in the past - it can be done! Will have to be through Hamachi, or direct connection, but it can be done!

instead of hamachi, you can sset upa private network then on tunngle, i just didnt think they have multiplayer TCP/IP for SFC3 that was working since they used specific servers
