Leaderboard Disputes / Re: ATTN: Sonicspeedruner, Nicur, and R3FR4G
« Last post by stellar on August 03, 2022, 06:40:43 am »idk anything about sonicspeedruner but niczur and refrag are both using the 2004 pc disk release of sadx, as the steam release is awful and borderline unusable. since the 2004 version is a legal, first-party port, it's legal for the boards. also it can support really high resolutions natively, which is unmodified.

This forum is dead though, I'd recommend The Sonic Stadium, The GHZ, or r/SonicTheHedgehog if you just want to chat about Sonic. Also do you like speedrunning? Which games are your favourites?

Emerald Challenges / Re: Super Sonic Scramble
« Last post by SpanielWare on August 02, 2022, 05:55:33 am »Unfortunately this subforum is long dead (and you can only edit posts, not delete), but I like your idea, sounds like a fun challenge; maybe you can make a video to demonstrate it to us :P
And yeah, I imagine it'd be pretty straightforward to ROM hack; there's already a hack by Puto called 'Super Sonic in Sonic the Hedgehog', and you can use a level select cheat in Sonic 2 to get all emeralds etc., so for instance you could hack the ring counter to start at 50 rather than 0, and just jump at the start of an act to go super.

Are there any games/categories etc. you'd be particularly interested in archiving? How much storage do you have access to? (I presume you've backed up your own videos at least; 86 submissions is quite impressive!)

Emerald Challenges / Super Sonic Scramble
« Last post by TheClownRabbit on July 31, 2022, 11:03:34 pm »Essentially, you'd have to go into debug mode at the start of every act, spawn a super monitor, and hit it.
If you stop being super at any point for any reason, you lose.
It's probably possible for any (2D) game you can go super in, but it'd still be an interesting take on the game (probably?)
I doubt it'd even be super hard to make a mod for that makes it happen automatically, but I'm not a sonic modder/hacker so I have no clue.
edit: HOW THE FUCK DO I DELETE POSTS
edit 2: well i guess this is permanent now

« Last post by SpanielWare on July 29, 2022, 06:48:51 pm »I stand corrected; I searched the forum and saw a post from Parax stating that cosmetic mods were banned for all games, falling under the umbrella rule "The original game and all its contents must be preserved and unmodified" (imo the general competition rules should be updated to more clearly reflect this). I don't think that the "professional look" of the game is important so much as the potentiality of a mod side affecting gameplay mechanics.
I agree that ideally players should not fuck with display settings and such that obscure the default look of the game, albeit in Sonicspeedruner's case it seems rather negligible to jump at calling BS (and as for the deodorant positioning, I think we can take off the detective cap and conclude the most likely explanation is that he uses his bedroom for things other than vidya).
