Sonic 2 SMTP

It's the sprite table not the SST :P

Though I think a better way of fixing it would be modifying BuildSprites to limit the number of sprites that can be drawn internally, especially considering I don't think Sonic 2 has another free $80 bytes of contiguous free RAM lying around unless you modify the game in some way to make more RAM available.

 

I get a Illegal Instruction as Knuckles and Tails in Green Greens boss.

 

Are you using a non-Gens emulator? SMTP said that this isn't compatible with Kega, or Regen.
I just played on Gens+ & I didn't get an illegal instruction.

 

This is hot stuff. I hope you will give us a v6 in the forseeable future.

 

With Gens, in the Green Greens Zone boss, some of the tiles get corrupted too. This is probably related to the error Kega and Regen give.

 

A few things.

In Green Greens, whenever the water sound effect was playing I couldn't hear the spindash charge or release sounds. If I'm the only one having this problem, it may just be my emulator, since I'm using Generator for Mac.

Also, at Green Greens' boss, the moment Eggman started driving the drill-tank (whatever it's called) the game froze because of an invalid instruction.

 

Strange.

This was said before, you'll need to use Gens to play this game, unfortunately I don't know if there's a Gens for Mac, sorry.

 

Notice: Pressing C a few times will take away the crash :P

 

The emulator terminates when the illegal instruction occurs, making it impossible to do anything :P

 

This is not a problem with GenesisPlus.

This is a problem, however. The game froze without so much as an error message, the moment Eggman's pod entered the 'drill-tank' and no amount of mashing the C-button helped me out of it. Ah well, I have the option of copying the ROM to my Windows laptop and playing it on Gens

 

I remember I had the same bug in my hack with the EHZ boss. I think it had something to do with the S1 sound driver or something...

 

just now I played this for the first time, all options default apart from changing to sonic alone and I got to ice cap (only act 2, is this right?), completed the act, then I was sent back to green greens act 1 with score, lives the same.
I used gens plus, has anyone else experienced anything like this?
I really like this hack, excellent work

edit: still got my first chaos emerald I picked up from green greens the first time round, just went through the big ring at the end of the act again into special stage 2

 

Wow, when I played this I was really impressed at how much effort was put int this. I especially like the fact that you can actually change the sprite style from Sonic 3 to Sonic 1 and vice versa. Oh, and I was dying to see tails follow knuckles :D.

 

That palette looks badass.
Gonna play it once you release the fix.
Keep it up.

 

I said it before, and I'll say it again—that layout is absolutely fantastic! It gives a great sense of speed, but at the same time requires quick thinking and has some very creative sections to it. I hope to see an act 2 in the same general style. :v:

Great stuff!

 

Looks a bit too much on auto-pilot for my tastes, but only a little.
