    What Sonic Heroes codes are these, found by PolygonJim?

    Did you use Cheat Engine to do this?

    I didn't know CE had an "if/else" statement to change certain addresses values if certain conditions are met.

    You forgot to make it change the currently playing music to 22, in order to load the SS boss fight music! :P

    No, no no. I just made it so you always turn into Super Sonic when you Jump and press the action button. I could also make him snowboard by the same method. A REAL Super Sonic transformation would take a lot more code changes.
    Edit: but I did use Cheat Engine's assembler to edit the code in RAM. It was a one byte change.

    Cool, I need to show you Sonic the Terminator (aka Gamma w/ Sonic's model).
    Edit: Is there any way to make this go faster? It takes forever to convert videos to MPEG and upload.

    You can't use straight AVI files on youtube?

    Personally I use movie maker to do a quick convert to wmv. It sucks I know but on youtube, quality doesn't matter that much and it takes a 200 mb file down to 2.5 mb

    A 1:12 video in AVI is 1GB, the same in MPEG is 318MB. I'll try WMV and see how that goes.

    Holy crap! O_O

    Not even the 1 hour movies I download in the internet, in a 720p resolution are as big as 1GB. They're usually around 150/200MB. Oh well.

    Sonic and Sonic is cool by the way :P

    Also, MainMemory, can you slightly modify the code to make Super Sonic toggle if the rings counter condition is met? And make it change the music as well :specialed:

    Okay, WMV is 11MB and not that much worse. Thanks, Dude.
    Endri: First I would have to find some empty space to insert all that code.
    Okay, here's Sonic the Terminator.

    being an asshole =P
    Probably because those 1GB videos are uncompressed.

    Oh my God! I saw something never seem before! Well, at least for me.

    I don't know if this is possible to normally die in the snowboarding section of Ice Cap, but, well, I switched to Super Sonic, and walked the mountain all the way back up. For my surprise, half the mountain was missing, and I wond up falling in a bottomless pit. When the game restarted, Sonic was riding a different board! It was a blue board with a snowflake simbol.

    Edit: It's not really a snowflake, but is something similar. Also, the board is entirely blue. Oh.

    There is a bottomless pit that you jump over at the end of the avalanche section, and I get the blue snowboard more often than the yellow one.

    It's an easter egg. There's a yellow one and a blue one.

    Also, Picklepower, http://www.dreamcast.onlineconsoles.com/ph...cialcontent.php

    All the official content including the christmas theme is in there.

    Haha! "Sonic, the Terminator" is awesome!

    It's interesting that I get cycling between the blue and yellow board each time I die! :eng101:

    Also, MainMemory, what asm code you use in the memory to make the transformation possible?

    This one. I just changed 00492F6A from 12 (Falling) to 75 (Super Sonic Standing).

    Edit: or did you mean the model swap? that one is P1 Model Address = 0x03C56210.

    Edit edit: New Video: Sonic is a ghost!

    Actually, I mean, how to make the transformation in realtime, when canceling a jump.

    Yeah, I just changed the code in my post. In sonic.exe you would change 92F6A to 4B. But without fighting Perfect Chaos first, this would just crash the game.

    Snowboarding in Twinkle Cart!

    I think maybe I should change the topic title.

    Speaking of fixed cameras - if there is a camera conflict (eg: sonic is inside of more than one camera zone) the game will fix the camera until the camera zones stop fighting. I really should get around to making that camera tutorial.

    Also, I made a new 2p video

    What are the values of P1 Pointer 1 and P1 Pointer 2?
    Are you in a level?

    Edit: I should make a wiki article about the addresses in my table.

    So, I decided to stop being a ass, and actually do something useful.

    Found the action modifier in the DC version. Though any attempt at turning into Super Sonic seems to crash. So still working on that.
