Mario Kart 8 Release Special - Rainbow Road Medley Release - Sonic Generations Mod SKmaric 2014-05-30 | DOWNLOAD:drive.google.com/file/d/0B1e0Qw9DBALEaVFuNHFEVEhURkk/edit?usp=sharingIf you downloaded the older version already download this for only the patched files:drive.google.com/file/d/0B1e0Qw9DBALEVDQzb1V3TUc3SE0/edit?usp=sharingHey, it may have been a month since my last video but I was certainly doing something during that time.Yeah I had to do something like this, it felt wrong to do just nothing for the release of Mario Kart 8, I mean it's pretty much the most important game series for me and I always become excited whenever a new one is announced, and the day has finally come for the next installment (of course I still need to wait because of time zones, oh goodie). So here it is, another Rainbow Road stage that pays tribute to the previous console games. I would have put in the other 3 but I've already done DS and models aren't available for the other two, maybe for Mario Kart 9.Also I may be doing some videos in relation to Mario Kart 8 during the month of June, mainly I'm thinking of a Let's Play after almost a year since my last one and also some online races, so feel free to join whenever I'm recording an online race.Readme is in the download.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeSonicHyuga - Inspiration with the original Rainbow Road Wii stage mod - youtube.com/user/SonicHyugaMusic:SNES - Mario Kart 7N64 - F-Zero X Expansion KitGCN - welle LICHT AWNWii - Jonny Atma - http://jonnyatma.comResults - Mario Kart DSModels:SNES - Modeled by me, NiAlBlack's Mario Kart Wii version was used as a reference for modeling: http://wiki.tockdom.com/wiki/SNES_Rainbow_Road_%28NiAlBlack%29N64 - Modeled and textured from scratch, inspired by Mario Kart 8's version.GCN - Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, extra details inspired by CaronTH's Mario Kart Wii version: http://wiki.tockdom.com/wiki/GCN_Rainbow_Road_%28CaronHT%29Wii - Mario Kart Wii, of course.And of course,Nintendo - For creating the awesomeness and memories that is the entire Mario Kart series.Also I'll just point out that I wanted to use the Mario Kart 8 version of the music for the trailer but if you do your research you'll know why I changed it at the last second.Oh by the way, good day all you bots that are stealing my videos, just acknowledging your existence.
Sonic Generations Anti-Piracy screen SKmaric 2021-01-09 | If the game detects an error, either with reading the disc or verifying the Steamworks DRM, the hub world will load the smaller version from after Green Hill Act 1, blocking the rest of the levels. The game will crash when trying to play Green Hill again, and some text also changes...
The Truth Behind the Stages of Sonic Colors SKmaric 2020-02-12 | It's taken nearly 10 years of digging around under the hood but it's finally time for the truth to come out.This is a comprehensive documentation of what data mining and studying the game's files reveals about the game's development and a possible earlier concept for the game's design. Hopefully my findings become more well known amongst those interested in what was left on the cutting room floor.*I misspoke when talking about Planet Wisp where I accidentially said "3 and 4" instead of "1 and 4", the visuals and subtitles do reflect the correct information howeverMusic used:Sonic Colors Original Soundtrack - Numerous songsWinter Sports Champion Race - Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter GamesWindy Hill - Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter GamesReach for the Stars - Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic GamesTropical Resort - Hyper Potions youtube.com/watch?v=CaEpCuu0WMM

Be Cool/Be Wild for Rooftop Run - Unleashed Project/Sonic Generations mod SKmaric 2018-03-19 | DOWNLOAD: drive.google.com/file/d/16-Zly5-LTAHWwlTYmpM82F9wLpKCcDft/view?usp=sharingFive years after the release one of the greatest total conversion mods for any game ever (imo), and I have at last (nearly) realised one of my favorite concepts for a mod: dynamic music changes throughout a stage depending on performance and location, as conceptualised by Falk Au Yeong (who has since contributed to the Sonic Mania soundtrack which is so great to hear!). Four years ago on the first anniversary of the Unleashed Project's release I released an early version of this same mod based on primitive techniques, but now thanks to Skyth's CSB Builder tool we now have full control over audio cues and effects, resulting in such flexibility as this with stage mods, and all while having a very efficient backend too.The main thing that could not be fully realised is the use of specific transition points (each loop was divided into 5 sections, and would transition to the next part of the song only upon reaching the end of the current section after activating the music change trigger. That would require a complete overhaul of the audio engine, so the music instead simply changes with a quick fade much like City Escape/Speed Highway. I suggest watching the concept video for a demonstration). Also the criteria for switching between Be Cool and Be Wild is somewhat different: it is instead dependant on Sonic's speed, much like Green Hill/Sky Sanctuary. Sonic's speed is capped in 2D sections however preserving this aspect of the concept/ Boosting however overrides everything and always plays Be Wild since the game always considers Boosting as "running" regardless of speed (it does not add a boost filter/force mono audio however).Download the Unleashed Project (required for the this mod): youtube.com/watch?v=LBE2EFNQoEoBe Cool/Be Wild: soundcloud.com/falk-2/sets/interactive-rooftop-runVideo demonstrating the original concept: youtube.com/watch?v=TjtXrKpW7G4Skyth's channel: youtube.com/user/aslkncvlk
Sonic Generations PC - Tropical Resort Preview SKmaric 2018-02-09 | This video is well overdue but it's finally in a presentable condition (at least what is shown here) so here it is, a mod that attempts to port a stage from Sonic Colors to the Hedgehog Engine with as high a level of accuracy as possible, specifically intended to replicate the original lighting and materials as well as porting the original collision and layout data.Furthermore, the stage will be redesigned slightly to fit with the Unleashed / Generations gameplay style, particularly in terms of removing Wisp Color Powers in favor of more natural means of accessing alternate paths and hidden items across the stage, as well as making stages longer through combining two acts from the original game into one. In this way this will not be a project to port Colors to PC, but rather a re-imagining of Colors' stages. This is still a work in progress, hence where the video ends since 2D sections in particular will be altered considerably.First demo will include Tropical Resort Act 1. Release date is yet to be confirmed.Accomplished with tools developed by myself, Skyth, Radfordhound and thesupersonic16.youtube.com/channel/UCUE_TAeyRxeuAyjBoa65xdAyoutube.com/user/Radfordhoundyoutube.com/channel/UCCfrXlIEsvsIR-x7QBH38Hw

Sonic Generations Mod - Sonic Colors GIA Porting Proof of Concept SKmaric 2014-08-07 | Proving that it's possible, rather than re-rendering the GIA from scratch like everyone else ever has tried to do with Colors stages, me being too poor to buy Vray and I'm sure as hell am not going to pirate it, I looked into how Colors handles shadowmaps, and seeing as I figured out Mario Kart Wii uses shadowmaps and apparently Colors does it in the exactly the same way, I managed to use the same shadowmap textures from Colors in Generations as GIA.Basically Generations has the GIA set to map channel 2, no big surprise most of you probably already know that if you've tried applying GIA before, and everything else (maybe with some exceptions) use channel 1 or an environment map. The .brres format that Colors uses could have anything assigned to any map, so I had to swap the UVs of the channel used for shadows to channel 2 for any object that used 2 or more other maps. From there I created the GIA just as any other stage really.This video only shows the GIA, and nothing else has been changed since the last release which is why there are some duplicated animated objects here and there and some missing, as next I will look into getting animations working, just as SonicHero2491 has already. I would have gotten more done but I at least wanted to show something considering how much longer it took compared to how long I expected.And for those wondering, yes it is also possible to port shadows from any game at all that uses shadowmaps, so far I've also tested Mario Kart Wii models and it works just fine, so it's worth experimenting I guess.

Although I may do something involving actual modelling new stages because that's kinda what I want to start learning to do?

A mod released on the modder's birthday because he felt like doing something different? Don't worry, I'm still working on Planet Wisp, I did this because I was tired of listening to Planet Wisp music over and over if that was even possible :oBut yeah, when I was going back to play some of the games from earlier in my childhood I looked at Mario Kart DS and saw Rainbow Road and thought, "You know, I should totally make a mod out of this" and bam, here you go. Y'see Mario Kart DS was the first Nintendo game I owned, I'd play it for hours (and how appropriate it was a birthday gift from 5 or 6 years ago) and never got tired of it. I don't know I couldn't help it seeing a Mario Kart track with inversions and knowing about SonicHyuga's Rainbow Road so I did it.YES I KNOW IT STILL SAYS GREEN HILL JUST BE HAPPY SOMEONES PORTING PLANET WISP FOR YA.Hope you guys enjoy this, don't forget to like, favorite and subscribe for more mods, now, back to working on Planet Wisp.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeNintendo - For the model and a damn nice racing game.

Sonic Generations Colours Porting - Original Planet Wisp Mod - Classic Sonic SKmaric 2013-10-13 | Check out the Moddb page!: http://www.moddb.com/mods/sonic-generations-planet-wisp-projectSo basically I've now added lightshafts and directional shadows, remember I will not be putting in GIA until maybe the full release, but there's still a possibility that it may not work.Clearly from the title I've got to work on creating Classic versions of each stage, no I'm not going to replace all the dash panels and springs with the classic variants because honestly, that was actually something that sort of bothered me about Generations, how can there be modern springs and dash panels in the classic era levels and vice-versa. Anyway.Since all three acts are almost done, you can expect a second release within the next two weeks.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeGeneral help/tutorials, physics and save file - brianuuuSonicPlanet Wisp models - PeardianBe sure to like and favorite this video and subscribe to my channel if you like what you see, it really helps out a lot!
Sonic Generations Colours Porting - Original Planet Wisp Mod - Act 2 and 3 Update SKmaric 2013-10-06 | Check out the Moddb page!: http://www.moddb.com/mods/sonic-generations-planet-wisp-projectSo I've fixed all of the glitches with getting Planet WIsp's resources to load in Chemical Plant, the only thing that didn't work was the platforms' glow, which doesn't dim like in Planet Wisp and just stays on all the time. As for the Sprinkler, it just seems to decide when it works, it never likes to work properly and just appears at random, sometimes the collision trigger works perfectly for whatever reason, but ya know, it's random as it seems so I don't exactly have much control over it.The Egg Chasers are giving me some trouble, in Colors they either were one on each side or one always in the middle, but in Generations they are capable of switching lanes, so if anyone knows if it's possible to keep them from switching lanes please.Other than that, this project seems to be running along smoothly, also school is back in next week if that has any significance to the progress for the next few months, hopefully homework doesn't bombard everything like last term :P.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeGeneral help/tutorials and physics - brianuuuSonicPlanet Wisp models - PeardianBe sure to like and favorite this video and subscribe to my channel if you like what you see, it really helps out a lot!
Sonic Generations Colours Porting - Original Planet Wisp Mod - 3D HUB & Act 2 Preview & Act 1 Update SKmaric 2013-09-29 | ==TURN ON ANNOTATIONS==Check out the Moddb page!: http://www.moddb.com/mods/sonic-generations-planet-wisp-projectTwo weeks later I have a new update for you all, here I've gotten two new things started; a 3D Hub and Act 2.Now putting the resources from Planet Wisp and getting them to load in the place of Chemical Plant was a near success, but the lights on the platforms just stay black for whatever reason. And it's not the fault of the .material or the .dds files, as I've tested. Hopefully I can get this fixed without too much trouble.As for the lack of Sprinklers, I know for sure that this is an issue that has got to do with the "setdata_base.xml", all of the needed files are in "cpz_cmn.ar.00" as I've checked by having the game load the same file from Speed Highway's Sprinkler challenge, and it worked fine, it's definitely all got to do with the single xml.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeGeneral help/tutorials and physics - brianuuuSonicPlanet Wisp models - Peardian
Sonic Generations Colours Porting - Original Planet Wisp Act 1 - V1.0 Release! SKmaric 2013-09-15 | ==DOWNLOAD LINK IN DESCRIPTION====THIS HAS BEEN UPDATED - CHECK THE LINK BELOW==It's the moment you've been waiting for, the first release of my Planet Wisp Act 1 mod!I have added numerous HD textures from Generations' Planet Wisp, the only ones I didn't port were the ones that either didn't fit on the original textures or the ones I thought looked better than Generations' (shocker, I know). Also, minecarts. I also gave up on making the platforms stop and just used layering instead to create the illusion of them moving into place.Download:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MuNkKxfWW04Here's some of what I've changed in the last update of this mod:Improved framerate on low-end systemsSome more HD textures I may have missed or changed my mind about.Numerous glitches fixed.Acts 2 and 3 included.I will not be putting in GIA because I don't have Vray because the price is through the roof and don't tell me to freely download it, at best I may get the 30 day trial and just add in all the GIA at the end with all 6 acts, if it works that is.Be sure to subscribe if you want to see the other 5 acts redone in Sonic Generations!Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeGeneral help/tutorials and physics - brianuuuSonicPlanet Wisp models - Peardian
Sonic Generations Colours Porting - Original Planet Wisp Act 1 - Progress 4 SKmaric 2013-09-12 | Probably the final update before release, or at least the second to final. Things I still need to do:-Fix the moving platforms, I didn't show them in this video but they still don't stay in place after activation.-Put in some background objects such as the moving saws and those strange towers that move up and down (they were in the original Generations Planet Wisp but I have no idea where in the files they are).-Fix some cameras, mostly in the drifting sections.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeGeneral help/tutorials and physics - brianuuuSonicPlanet Wisp models - Peardian
Sonic Generations Colours Porting - Original Planet Wisp Act 1 - Progress 3 SKmaric 2013-09-07 | So for this week's update I've made a bit more progress not so much on the level itself but more on the other things like the models, such as the platforms which now use the model from Colors and the glass that I have no idea why is so glitchy and certainly don't know why the debris from the Rocket ceiling glitches with it.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeGeneral help/tutorials and Colors Pack - brianuuuSonicPlanet Wisp models - Peardian

Well, a lot, the annotations should explain most of it, though I might have forgotten some of the things I changed, so I'll just let the video speak for itself in that regard.There's still a lot to fix even with what I've done so far, the way I played this here is specifically in a way to run into the least amount of glitches to not make this look bad, so basically it will take some time before I release this even after I've done all the main work.Credits:SonicGlvl - samothethiefSpline Exporter - DudeGeneral help with getting this working - brianuuuSonic
Sonic Generations Colours Porting - Original Planet Wisp Act 1 [Very Early WIP] SKmaric 2013-08-24 | Doing something new this time, porting a level into Sonic Generations. I'll bet that someone has already started porting this level anyway, but I'm the first to post a video of it if that's true.I know someone's going to say this is pointless because Planet Wisp is already in Generations, but this is a PORT, not a remake.There still needs a lot of work to be done yet on this, especially in terms of splines, the 2D section isn't done yet because of the sheer complexity of them that it would take a little more time to make the splines for them in comparison to say, Tropical Resort. I especially need help with cameras, such as the one that needs to be put in where the rail goes into a double corkscrew, I know that I need to use the Tube camera but I don't know how to link it to a spline. I also need to add transparency to the textures that need it, and thanks to the way 3DS Max imports obj files, there are tons of duplicates I need to fix, so much that I can't even control the scroll bar in the material editor.And for those who are wondering, I haven't even attempted to put GIA on this as I know that other people haven't had much luck getting GIA on Colours stages, the light is just a standard Free Direct Light. And I haven't even gotten V-Ray so...Also I didn't make this video in HD because while this level normally runs fine, it drops to a piss poor frame rate when recording unless I set it to 480p.In any case, tell me what you think of what I've done so far and if you think I should continue work on this.
[SFM] - Sonic Adventure 2 - Ark Showdown Recreation SKmaric 2013-08-18 | Now with actual lip-syncing!So, this is a follow-up to my SA2:Battle opening recreation, this time this is the cutscene that plays right before the final boss of the Hero storyline. This is sort of how I imagined the cutscene before this same fight in Generations would have looked like, but I still like what they did with the real thing anyway. And man, making this was a challenge.Making the walking animation wouldn't have been so bad if it weren't for the size of Sonic's feet (you'll notice that I couldn't be bothered with Shadow, but since his legs aren't even shown anyway I though I could get away with that). Also making Shadow's skating animation was pretty hard, but luckily I got in done faster than I had hoped. Now the hardest part was choosing a map, since I both couldn't find any model of the original stage and I don't even know how to get Hammer to work with importing models or heck, even textures. I finally settled on City-8 (which I'm unable to find who made it. If anyone knows who it is then tell me so I can credit them).I've also made some fixes to the audio, I've already given you one of them, try to spot the other two!So anyway, tell me what you think of this in the comments below.[Reuploaded because layoff was too dark for some reason]
Sonic GDK Porting - Radical Train [TEST] SKmaric 2013-07-31 | So since I was home sick from school today I thought that I would use this time to finally create something in the UDK Engine, or Sonic GDK to be more precise. Anyways, so as a first practice thing I decided to port Radical Train to Sonic GDK, as it's not an overly long level (though I still had to drag and drop over 400 static meshes, luckily only one got messed up during the import and it was just a decoration thing, you'll see at the start of the mach speed section there's no grass or weeds protruding from the ground, that's the one that broke) and it had places to make loops and SpringJumpPads (springs that always take you to the exact spot you tell it to) things which I hadn't attempted to make before. Overall, I kind of like how this ended up turning out, and maybe later I'll start making some serious levels for Sonic GDK (and maybe even port them to Sonic Generations).Before anyone asks, I am NOT going to release this for a number of reasons, first of all the files are almost 500MB but mainly because this map in it's current state doesn't work unless you play it PERFECTLY, this recording alone took almost 15 takes alone, and since the game has to reload the entire 500MB every time you get a game over I wouldn't be surprised if there was quite the number of ragequits by those who try to play this.And this is actually sort of practice for the Sonic Freedom project, though I'm currently unsure what exactly I'm going to do to help out with that, since I'm not the greatest modeler ever.And before I forget, the stage model was from Melpontro, you can check out his channel here:youtube.com/user/MelpontroDownload Sonic GDK:http://forums.sonicretro.org/index.php?showtopic=19492
[SFM] - Sonic Adventure 2: Battle Opening Recreation SKmaric 2013-07-14 | ==READ DESCRIPTION BEFORE COMMENTING==Man this was a mouthful, even just uploading this took a while.Anyway, so this is quite obviously a recreation of the opening from Sonic Adventure 2 Battle made in Source Filmmaker using apochedgie's Sonic Generations models.The map I used was this one: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=124606283Now for a short Q&A before you make a comment:Q: Why?A: Because I felt like it.Q: How long did this take?A: About 3 weeks. I was sort of making this on and off with my (now cancelled) Super Mario Galaxy 2 LP as well as real-life things such as school.Q: ermahgerd u riped off zeekrocz117A: I wasn't aware of his video until after I uploaded.Q: What's with the random whites and purples that keep appearing?A: That's the map's fault, not mine. I did whatever I could to fix it to no avail.Q: How did you change the skybox texture?A: By converting textures of Radical Highway which I already had, converted them using VTFEdit, then put them over the existing textures.Q: Why do some of the animations look kind of bad?A: I'm only new to 3D Animation, plus the link to chaofanatic's rig was broken while I was making this.Q: How did you do [thing that isn't possible in SFM]?A: Adobe Premiere. The only things I've done outside of SFM are the colored backgrounds and text in the short clips with the characters posing to the camera and the logo at the very end.Q: What's with the weird black outlines around Tails, Eggman, Knuckles and Rouge?A: Trying to mask them in Adobe Premiere. I did my best there.Q: Why are the no sparks on the rails?A: Because I couldn't find any good particle system. I threw a candle on Sonic's foot because it was better than nothing, and even then I couldn't rotate it.Either way, I do really like how this turned out, and I may make more like these in the future.Don't forget to like this video and subscribe to my channel if you want to see more!
