FF9 Swrils.. only a gray swirl?

In FF9, the swirly effect before changing to a battle is only gray in color, when it's suppose to be the color of the world around it right? I get this gray box, then the swirly starts. I'm using Lewpy's 3dfx/Glide³ GPU 1.35, here is my current configuration. Thanks for any help.
