am I imagining things or is there a bug in LZ act 3 (misty Maze Act3), cant seem to go anywhere, tied every damn trick in da book.

is there some sort of trick to that level?

Tweaker · Jun 4, 2006

Yeah, sorry, that was my bad - I'm releasing a bugfix version in a week or so including a few fixed/added features as well as that bug fixed.

This release was definitely rushed, and I apologize for that. Hopefully you'll enjoy the bugfix better.

There are also some... interesting, plans that me and jman have in store for this hack. But what are they? We'll, you'll just have to wait and see!

stuntmaster · Jun 4, 2006

it's always better to find out!
thought it was slightly rushed but it's still awsome nevertheless!

I wonder what you will do next.....

Squints · Jun 4, 2006

Eh...exactly why does the music slow down when I get the speed shoes?

Tweaker · Jun 4, 2006

...I've said it before, it's a bug in the sound engine. I'm not gonna bother reprogramming the driver right now to fix it, so it's a minor inconvinience.

Update: I'm currently working on my bugfix release of the hack. This will contain both fixed moves, some new features/layouts (SLZ1's final layout, and LZ1's layout), and even some implementation of features I had to hold out on (Jump Dash anyone? Thanks to jman for the fire shield code). Plus, the double jump is fixed, so w00. =P

The other main thing I wanted to do was get in my port of Splash Down from Ristar done -- you may have noticed I used Break Silence, which I had actually ported for Shadow Fire for his hack. Plus, Splash Down fits the level better, so I'd like to get it done and over with. There's only one more problem with it, but I can't seem to figure it out. I'll keep trying though.

Stay tuned for the upcoming release -- the first REAL release of the hack.

hey nice plans there.

the jump dash, remind me what's that again?

theres something similar in your hack already with sonic you press b or c twice and sonic will lock onto the nearest monitor/badnik, that's one hellova good idea.

also theres another piece of music in your hack but it's not used (or I think its not used, me being a dumbass that I am), its sound test 10.

knowing me I probably haven't found it being used.

eh can't wait for the next release!

SLZ1's final layout, and LZ1's layout

Credit for doing SLZ plz. And I did'nt know you were working on a LZ layout. Also, You should put Splash down in place of HPZ on act 2, and bring the Moonwalker song back for act 3. I loved that one.

That's actually used on the continue screen, although sadly, getting a game over locks the game up on most levels. You gonna fix this, Tweaker?

Hmm...kinda like what we said for Sonic 2, eh? =P

Pretty cool you're working on a fixed release. Keep it coming.

I actually prefer it better. Sonic is going faster because time is going slower. I thought it was intentionally awesome like that.

Doesn't work on my Mac emulator, either, and it's supposed to be incredible at hardware emulation, to the point where even Sonic crackers has problems being emulated...

Just shows a black screen for me...

Try Generator.

stormislandgal · Jun 12, 2006

Aww, can't run on PSP? My hack probably wouldn't either then. There goes impressing my friends. =P

Great layout for Starry Night 1 by the way.

Dracula · Jun 12, 2006

Now I know how to modify the songs now. =P

Tweaker · Jun 17, 2006

Okay - Official new release ready!

Changes since the public beta:

- Double Jump fixed for Shadow; Jump Dash added for Sonic
- Issue of life icons not loading while starting a game from the options screen fixed -- you'll like the new system better. =P
- Zone layouts for Sunset Hill (GHZ) and Starry Night (SLZ) are complete. New layouts thanks to Robjoe1107.
- Music playlist modified (and that damn Splash Down port fixed =P)
- Various bugs fixed (Like the starting position in LZ3)

Any other issues, let me know. The Game Over screen should work now too -- dunno what caused that one...
