Superbike World Championship Problem

by Adste » Mon, 30 Aug 1999 04:00:00

Please help me!!

Just got a copy of EA's SBK World Championship and it won't run at all when
I click the icon.  Just get the egg timer for a few seconds and then
nothing.  I'm using a Voodoo 3 card which I'm assuming is the problem.

Could anyone please tell me if they have encountered this problem and how
they got round it.

I have looked everywhere for a patch and was surprised to find that for a
game so old there isn't one!

Many thanks in advance

EA Superbikes has big problems with the Voodoo3 card.  If it does
manage to run, it won't go any higher than 640x480.  EA doesn't seem
to be planning a patch since they're busy working on SBK2000

I couldn't get higher than 640X480 with my Voodoo 3.  EA said they weren't
bothering to do a patch because they are working on Superbike 2000.  Problem
is that one probably won't work with my Voodoo 4 when the time comes <g>

I took it back and I'm playing Castrol Honda Superbike 2000, which seems
just as good but works properly also.....

EA Sports can keep their SBK 2000 if they won't support their games.........
