Ah, awesome. This is much better than the last tech demo. I love Chemical Plant's music, that bassline is great. Kudos to all of you!

Well, in any case that explains why my integrated graphics chip screamed in horror as I began to open the program.

Seems to be broken in WINE:

fixme:ole:CoCreateInstance no instance created for interface {bf798031-483a-4da2-aa99-5d64ed369700} of class {25e609e4-b259-11cf-bfc7-444553540000}, hres is 0x80070057
err:dinput:DirectInput8Create CoCreateInstance failed with hr = -2147024809; Try running wineprefixcreate to fix it.

About it not working in Wine, I am truly sorry about that. It was expected from my side since the new tech demo uses pixel shaders now. Even if it is supported by your computer, it may not be emulated by OpenGL. Direct3D9c is needed, sorry.

That's great. Except if you actually bothered to read the error in question, you'd see that the problem was in DirectInput8Create(), which has nothing to do with shaders.

HRESULT is 0x80070057, which indicates that an invalid argument was passed to CoCreateInstance(). Can you make sure that the correct value is specified?

I'm loving these tech demos, but I'm sorry to say that the EHZ's 'trumpet' is starting to grait on my nerves after a while.

I do hope you're going to change the trumpet to something better on the ears before the final release. >.<

I just used WinAmp to play Super Sonic's music and Emerald Hill Zone 2P's music and I like them both, especially EHZ_2P's.

Can't believe no one's said anything about those yet.

You can't spoil secrets features like this, you know.. ;P

Sorry.

Also, I have no idea what I did in the open 4x stage, but the chain on the bridge broke on me. (The last two chains didn't align properly with the bridge.)

Attached is the S2R file in .rar format that was recorded with this bug.

Would it be possible to edit the launch program (where you can change controls and stuff) to have a list of graphical effects that the user can turn off to try and improve speed? I think that would be the best way to handle making the game work for as many people as possible.

That was my line of thinking. It's worked for PC games for well over twenty years now, so it ought to suffice here. The downside being that any art that was explicitly meant to be handled by shaders (such as the liquid in the Chemical Plant tubing, IIRC) would need to be redrawn properly for low detail mode.

[Toekutr]

My beastly PC (Q6600, 8800GTX, 2GB ram) once again has no trouble playing the demo, and I haven't noticed any bugs yet. However, the new art is looking amazing.


Sorry to all of the people without enough of a rig to try this out , it's really starting to look beautiful.

I hope whoever made that Tails Title Frame bothers to finish/make the rest of them... It's look really cool.
