Sonic and the Secret Extended Edition

Check again. It never happens after a level transition. If you still get it, give me a GMV recording of how to get it after a level transition and then I'll believe you. :P

 

Hahahaha. That's a known bug. And it's why I asked if anyone knew how to check if Sonic is on the ground. But nobody replied.

 

Nope, it doesn't show up.

Like I said before, give me a GMV reproducing this.

Maybe it's an emulator problem? I have Linux Gens.

 

That works perfectly. Thanks

I just tested the GHZ2 glitch on Windoze Gens, and it doesn't happen there either.

Edit: Just fixed the Act 4 End Level Results Screen glitch as well.

 

Whoops, I forgot about that. Thanks for reminding me.

That's because even though I changed the level order array, the cutscene is hard coded to go to LZ4, and I once again forgot to change it.

SBZ3 hasn't been made yet. It uses SBZ2's DSR right now (purely so it doesn't freeze at the title card). When I actually get round to making SBZ3, I will fix the DSR.

 

Why would I rely on silly cheap things like that?

If I wanted to get rid of the big ring, I'd delete the big ring's code, art, mappings, and every reference to it in the object positions.

<hr>
The other idea I had about the level end was to simply make all the levels $140 (320) pixels longer, and then change various things so that you would run past the end level sign and the sign and big ring would scroll off the screen before you finished it, unless you jumped into the big ring in which case it wouldn't matter anyway. If I did that, I would have to remove the point bonuses because they would become rather redundant... but maybe I could place them elsewhere in levels. And yes, I know I'd have to find the VRAM space for it, so don't tell me.

I had another idea as well, just in general. I'll add up and down monitors ala Chaotix, to make Sonic bigger or smaller (twice or half the size). Then Big Sonic:
- would deal 2 hits to bosses instead of 1
- would be able to break through walls without rolling (think Knuckles in S3&K)
- would be able to break through spikes from the side, and some other objects like the GHZ rock
- would be able to kill enemies without rolling, except if it would make normal Sonic get hurt even if he did roll
- would be able to ignore the SLZ fans
- would have a higher jump height
- if hit, would revert to Normal Sonic

And Mini Sonic:
- would be able to get through really small passages
- would be able to get through various places by running, where normal Sonic would have to roll, and would also be harder to crush
- would move a lot faster from the SLZ fans, perhaps able to get to other places
- if hit, would die

I might also add vertical fans to SLZ, like those in Hydrocity in S3&K.

What do people think about those ideas?

 

Eh, the MZ boss is no secret. Robotnik will chase you until you get to the infinite scroll scene, where he will then drop some lava to destroy the blocks behind you. Then he'll try to drop lava ahead of you to destroy the blocks in front. So you have to jump over the holes of course.

BTW, not all the boss chases will be auto-scrolling. Only GHZ and MZ are. I've already planned all the bosses. :P
