I just realized that there's a rather fatal level design error in Sonic the Hack that I can't fix due to my failed HDD. Well, almost fatal. In Marble Zone Act I, there is a short passageway of spikes that you go through on a sliding block. However, there is a lava jet that smashes you into the spikes and kills you. This can be avoided by getting the invincibility monitor floating in the air on the right side of the passage before you enter.

Here we go, I had time to finish up enough of S2SMTP v5 to submit it here. Sorry no public release. The release may be coming soon, I just need to fix a few things first.

Name / Alias: SMTP
Name of Hack: 'Sonic 2 SMTP'
Game of Origin: Sonic 2
Console of Origin: Megadrive
E-mail: S2SMTP '(the AT)' gmail '(The dotted com)'
Download link: E-mailed
Changes: Big List:


* Easy/Normal/Hard Difficulties
* Sonic/Tails/Knuckles playable
* Slow Shoe monitor added.
* Bonus Stage at starpost if you have 50 rings or more.
* Big ring at end of level for access to Special Stage.
* 6 hidden Special Rings in every act - Each give 10000 points at end of act.
* If you collect all the Special Rings in an act you get taken to a Special Stage at the end, even on act 2.
* Character & Difficulty select in options and Level select. C for character, B for difficulty.
* Seperate Character start locations for Knuckles. (Incomplete)
* ICZ ported over HTZ.
* S3K DEZ Added.
* ICZ Song ported by Tweaker
* DEZ , super shoe, slow shoe songs ported by Pu7o
* S3K drum set ported by Pu7o
* Possibly more I've forgotten

Completed Levels:
* EHZ1&2 - Easy/Normal/Hard
* CPZ1&2 - Easy/Normal/Hard
* ARZ1&2 - Easy/Normal/Hard
* Bonus Stage - Easy/Normal/Hard
* ICZ 2 - Normal ( 80% complete, no big pits or nothing just only has objects needed to complete :P)
* OOZ 1 - Normal ( 40% complete, big pits near the end and near no objects)
* DEZ 1 - Normal ( 0%, This pretty much an object test level. You can test the DEZ objects and things)

Info Needed:

The cheat codes are the same as always. You will need the level select code to get to CPZ , ICZ , OOZ , DEZ. As the level order has been messed with.

I'd recommend Playing all the difficulties to see the changes(different object/level layouts, different Special Ring Layouts) but since you might be time constrained for the contest you don't have to. :P

That should be it.

Oh that reminds me...on my hack, you'll need to use debug to beat White Blaster. Also, don't enter the special stages in that level or you'll get sent back to green hill.

Jeez...WHY did I even submit XD

Tails can fly

I knew I forgot something in my feature list...

I'm pulling out of the contest. I have no serious hopes or chances of winning. That, and this shit is so buggy it's embarassing. I'm out. I'm beginning to realize I seriously wasn't ready for this.

For those still interested, my hacks are still downloadable, yet shitty.

.. so.. what now? :U

[Hayate]

It feels like about 5 days since ThunderSpeed's post to me. :blink:

[Verse]

Hey, I haven't seen hide nor hair of Nayr in these past few days, and from what I can ascertain you guys haven't either. Since I'm judging along with her, if she doesn't show up in the next few days, I may ask you to send the hacks to me instead. So far I have only received the public entries.

However, don't do it just yet, I really am hoping she shows up again before long.

[Ayla]

I'm here, I'm just in a bit of a bind that will end tomorrow. =P Verse, I need a better way to get in touch with you because you're never on msn when I am >,<

I'm on right now, and I'll do my best to be on all tomorrow. I'm always set to offline though, which I can also change. Go ahead and leave me messages, either way. Hope everything's okay on your end.
