At the Labyrinth Zone act 3 the bar grips, when you're sucked into the tube when the door opens isn't ported correctly.

After finishing Neo Green Hill Zone I got to Star Light Zone. Then I restarted the game and at the save screen it said "ZONE 13", and when I selected it, I got to Dust Hill Zone, not to Star Light Zone. EDIT: When I finished Act 1 of Dust Hill Zone, it saved, so basically I made a jump back to "ZONE 5".


I might fully debug this once I finished this game.

EDIT2: In Labyrinth Zone act 1 at the secret path, there's an odd placed ring.

EDIT3: When I finished Casino Night act 1, saved and resetted, the save screen shows "ZONE 10" and leads me to Emerald Hill Zone. You really should consider fixing the order.

Update: Fixed Level order and Icons for Sonic 2 Delta Levels in SRAM select.

Other related bugs not fixed yet.

Man, I thought this project had died. Nice to see it's still alive after all these years. Can always use more updates to a venerable hack like this.

BUG REPORT!

These monitors (ring and a robotnik) in Wood Zone 1 can't be broken, be it via jumping or spinning.


EDIT: The Dust Hill boss could do with some background detail, it's hard to gauge where you are without something there.

Trying out the new build. And on a side note, I think the Tails Sprite bug also happened in Gens as well. I use Gens and noticed some slight issues with Tails' sprites. (In particular, the ones on an angle.)

I've always wondered and never quite understood, but why is Green Hill even in this game to begin with? What's the purpose of this level alone being in a hack of a Sonic 2 beta?

Pretty sure Green Hill was in Sonic 2's Delta.
Edit: Yeah, It's in this list of levels. Silly me, That's this hack's information. GHZ was in the Nick Arcade prototype of S2.
Edit: As far as nit-picking goes, Sonic returns to his S1 palette in the S1 special stages.

Ahhh the Nick Arcade prototype.. well seeing that this hack is based on restoring as many elements as possible from the betas/prototypes that were cut from the final version, then I guess it makes sense.

However, the state of the prototype's build showed that S2 was based off S1, which is why Green Hill is still there intact. That's why Green Hill being in S2 doesn't make any sense when it's evidently clear that it's not supposed to be there, being that it's already the first level of S1. They didn't go about removing it cause it was just an early proto, duhhh.

Don't be so sure.

The GHZ level tiles were converted to be compatible with the 2P versus split screen mode. Though since the level was not designed with this mode in mind, it has too many tiles. Collision was also set to use different data than the rest of the levels, and I think it was converted to use 128x128 level chunks. Objects were also carried over.

If it was just a leftover from S1, they would not have done any of this.

Not that I think GHZ was a planned level for S2, but it being there is not just being leftover from S1.

Why be bothered by this... we have scrapped levels and S1 levels mixed with S2 levels and a S3 save screen with Flying Tails and Knuckles... who can team together.
I don't need reasons. I simply need a download link. :D
I suppose if you wanna ask why... ask why Knuckles is even in this game. He wasn't planned for S2, as far as I know at least... Though I think some kind of character backstory similar to his was planned at some point or another.

But like I said... why ask why?

[SonicVaan]

Okay, I played through this game with Super Sonic and now I'm ready to go into further testing, but I came across 2 bugs while playing the rest of the levels:

In Genocide City zone act 2 Super Sonic uses the wrong underwater palette.
Scrap Brain zone's cycling background palette is wrong. I mean those pink thingies.

Fixed SBz 2 / Final Pink cycling background Palette. (Hard to get because only occur when you came from SBz Act 1 to Act 2).
Fixed Super Sonic GCz palette.
Fixed Super Miles to Miles wrong Palette.

Thanks for playing and reporting.

Sorry for many builds.

As long as the future builds can read my old save files... I have 0 problem downloading again and again.
It's really good stuff Esreal.

BTW, still unfixed is this bug: Screen boundary spin dash bug.
It's caused me problems on more than one occasion.
