    I'm hoping drx's new lead to get a build doesn't go cold.


    Don't hold your breath. Ever since the Megaupload incident, drx has been paranoid about hosting downloads on his site. If he does find it, someone else would have to host it now because of his paranoia. No disrespect, but I think he's overreacting. Though that's just my thought on the matter. I suppose it could be argued that even prototype ROM images that are over a decade old have rights despite never being intended for public release. But whatever, we'll get to this issue when and if it actually happens.

  2. In Topic: Curious discovery regarding Sega Smash Pack for PC

    06 February 2015 - 04:25 PM

    Sorry for the bump but I wanted to know if anyone still had these dumps lying around since all the old links are down and I lost most of the data on the PC they were on. If anyone still has them and would upload them, that would be great. Thanks.

  3. In Topic: Sonic Heroes something

    29 November 2014 - 12:31 AM

    Interesting MainMemory. As I said on the video I'm gonna have to get a legal copy of Heroes because..... well anyway, I probably should have to begin with. As soon as I do though, I'm testing this beauty out. And I should thank Benji, so thank you.

    Wish I had something more technical to say. Next step would be seeing if we can make other characters go super since the game calls the Super form flag for them too when Team Super is active if I remember correctly. Sounds like it would probably be complicated though.

  4. In Topic: Banned from SPUF for mentioning hacking SA2?

    Yeah certain forums are so strict in some cases, it's ridiculous. I mentioned that I like to hack Sonic on a paranormal forum I joined before and the moderators kept editing my posts and told me to read the rules. Needless to say I haven't been on that forum since, and I can't even remember the name of it. :v:/> For all I know I probably have a few warnings for something as dumb as that. (It's not like I was distributing roms. :v:/> )



    That's 90% of pokemon forums. It doesn't matter if you're talking about ROMs or hacks in a subtle way, it's guaranteed to get you in trouble because most of the owners of the sites are retards that know nothing about the gaming underworld or even want to deal with it. Same thing here.

    . It's funny how Valve bans people for that kind of stuff but yet they allow modding of their games. Makes me scratch my head a little.

    ... while I'd certainly enjoy a Sonic R 2, I must say the idea of complaining the All-Stars Racing series control badly and thus going back to Sonic R as if that were any better is a bit baffling :v:/>/>/>/>

    But yes, a Sonic R 2 that'd actually control, with a sense of aesthetics on the same line as the first one, would be great.



    Well Dunno if you knew this or not but the PC version's controls were much more crisp than the Saturn's. You have a lot more control over the characters in the PC version. Since the version in Gems collection is a direct port of the PC version, the better controls were also carried over. I've had the opportunity of playing both versions and there is indeed something wrong with the Saturn version's controls. I'm not sure if it was intentional or what but you lose control on sharp turns a lot more easily in the Saturn Version than the PC and Gems collection versions. (even with the sharp turn buttons.)

    The problem with making a Sonic R 2 would be people bitching about what characters should be included/excluded. Then you have the retards that like making creepy pastas about Tails Doll..... (well even before Creepy Pasta became a "thing" people were telling stories about Tails Doll to try and scaremonger stupid and possibly mentally retarded Sonic fanboys. In reality, Tails Doll is just.... a doll. Kind of creepy due to how he behaves (becomes lifeless if he comes in fourth or lower and that creepy floating move he uses to gain speed.) but not "cursed" like some people seem to think.

    For those of you looking for more stuff to do in Sonic R that haven't done it yet, try racing as Amy. Beating every level as her is very rewarding.




    The version I played the most is exactly the Gems Collection one. It's still bizarrely atrocious to control. I mean, not impossible. You can master it. But I don't really think something as basic as "how to move" should be on the plateau of "this is fun and enjoyable when you've mastered it".

    I don't know. If SEGA, embolstered by Sonic Boom, did start producing Classic Sonic spinoffs as a third line, I'd certainly love what was suggested in this thread of Sonic R 2 being a classic era sendoff, per se. A best-of. Include characters from Adventure and afterwards, even, given a classic Sonic look. Fun music, fun levels with a surreal look, great stage design.

    Just please make it control better :P


    Try playing the Saturn version. You'll notice a huge difference right away. I can agree with you that there are small issues with the controls. Most of them can be relatively easily avoided with the L and R buttons for sharp turns (provided you aren't using a character with bad handling like Sonic, Metal Sonic, and Super Sonic. Then it can be a little hard to make turns. That I can agree with.) Tails has by far the best handling in the game IMO.
