Yes I have a Radeon 9600 PRO card and using Direct3D Mode in FF8 I get no lightning effects like when a cockatrice does electric discharge, or when Diablos does his Dark MEssenger his arm has lightning bolt type things glowing into the ball of darkness and a bunch explode upon its hitting... in software rendering it works fine but the game looks like outright crap. Does anyone know a way to fix this issue? Also for some reason I am getting checkerboard type cutting of polygons now after changing video drivers, I changed back but still the same problem.. maybe someone knows about that (Probably not...?)
and one more thing:
Final Fantasy 8 Configurators FF8Play.exe does NOT load the game properly, it will load ff8.exe but the game wont go, it loads a black screen and locks up :( The creator email directed me to these forums.

All I can suggest is update the drivers. Im using a standard 9600 and it runs likea dream. more than can be said for 7 though ¬_¬

Does ATI have diagnostic software available for the card? IE querry the card get it's information see what it REALLY is etc. One other thought, you might have T & L or something turned off. Look for option controls on your driver and play with ones that relate to it.
