Hey, how do you install? This freezes in a small black screen, and the read me doesnt have any directions beyond editing the INI files
To install the patch you just unzip it into you SFC1 game folder.
If you are running it in Windows 10, in "windowed" mode, and you only see a black screen in your desktop then you must set its compatibility mode to 16-bit color. Take a look into this image for instructions -> I.imgur.com
Hey there, I installed and replaced the .exe, sprites, and ini file with yours but its stuck on a black screen with 'Loading...' in the middle and I hear the music running in the background.
I tried messing with the INI files and run in compatibility 16-bit but its just stuck in 'Loading...' and I'm not sure what to do.

Hello, just for the record I managed to get this running at max framerate using this HD patch.
I had to combo it with "dgvoodoo wrapper" to fix the frame rate. Now I'm getting silky smooth 160+ frame rate. While before it was only running at 40
I also had to tweak the "sfc.ini" and turn both Mouse values to "0"
[Mouse]
async=0
hwblit=0
Initally, I got it running with dgvoodoo but the mouse cursor texture was broken with a purple halo around it. Adjusting the mouses config settings fixed this.
So yeah, there you go, the game runs flawlessly with really nice frame rates.
If you want to see a ingame FPS counter, you can enable it in the "sfc.ini" Just change the Fps= value to "1".
(You can also enable a nice looking Grid pattern on the 3D display ingame by changing the "Grid=" value to "1". I'm not sure if there is an ingame option for this, I remember this tick from years ago.)
Anti-aliasing seems to work flawlessly too by adjusting the dgvoodoo settings.
