Seanie B has reached out a helping hand and will be providing the new hosting for SonAR! I expect the transition to be super smooth. In fact, you might not even notice it! SonAR will be riding easy on the same box as SSRG and the lostsig network.

It has warmed my heart how you guys jumped to help out. The history of the prototype TNMT art in the Sonic Crackers overdump will be burned into the depths of the internet. I am in the debt of this Sonics community and generous individuals and will continue to provide these feeble ROMs so that future generations can tear them apart.


The torrent is mad awesome btw.

I do apologize for how slow it is- seeding an 11.4GB torrent with a 1Mbps upload speed is a problem.

edit: New hosting is great news. Should I still bother with putting up a torrent for the Expert Software version of Sonic CD?

No need to, the site was brought over in its entirety.

You should have told me about the torrent, I could have done a webseed

Seed or die.

Can someone edit this into the OP?

I'll seed continuously until a stable home for these is found. Hopefully we'll see others doing likewise!

Sorry, I was talking more to Heran in the first place, but it's all moved over to a new place anyway. So the torrent doesn't have to be stressed as much.

Hmm, is the just down temporarily or is it gone for good? It doesn't seem to be working at the moment.

[Covarr]

It's working fine for me.

Yeah, it working fine for me now, too. I guess it was just some sort of temporary issue.

[OrdosAlpha]

And, low, it is down once more. The first time since it's inseption I want to actually use it to download something and it's buggered.

[SeanieB]

Looks like Heran Bago lost his domain name.

Use the address http://sonar.lostsig.com/ in the mean time.

Actually I did figure out a good question to ask.

What version of Sonic R is that? There's no music, and trying to play the mounted CD as an audio cd in winamp results in the electronical equivalent of nails on a chalkboard.

Might be one of the Expert releases, probably the same one I've got; they didn't include the CD audio tracks due to some very strange oversight indeed. If you have the audio ripped from a legit CD you can just append it via a cue sheet (or if you have burning software that supports mixed-mode, you can create a CD with the audio that should work just fine -- the CD check doesn't actually do anything to tell if the disc is copied or not, just its presence period).

[Aerosol]

I found a download of the Xplosiv release with the audio so I'm fine. What are the track names of the music, though? A cue sheet is still an option, because the Xplosiv release only works in DirectDraw mode on my PC.

[dsrb]

Each of the images is ~464 MB, so they must have music; I'm not about to believe that the game program and data occupy that much space. That you received static when trying to play the music even indicates this! Probably the cue-sheet was buggered up somehow and/or the BIN file was interpreted with the wrong endianness.

Also: http://info.sonicret.../Sonic_R_(album) ?

(For which I found an article on some other wiki, stating that the album might [have] been fake because it used ‘Adventure-style art’ that didn't come around till later. Pity for their claim to Sonic fandom, then, that it's clearly not as modern as Adventure – instead being more like the drawings from Japanese Sonic 3D, which fits with its release date.)
