[@SPEEDYDIM2]

By next week were gonna have the chaos island mod replacing chaos island act 1

[@Ilikecats731]

No shocker tbh if that happens. Sonic modders are wild.

[@matheusgamer157]

​@@Ilikecats731and GOAT too.

[@신중환-g3v]

Where is it i want to know

[@nvidiacoworker7878]

Someone needs to mod Chaos Island as a hub world

[@Tailsfly593]

Finally someone put a fixed camera in their stage mod

[@DrinkMe2Drive]

FINALLY SOMEONE POINTS IT OUT! THAT WAS DRIVING ME CRAZY!

[@Andrews_Studio]

They were just carried over from the port since frontiers and shadow are both built on hedge engine 2

[@Mr.WheeIer]

@@Andrews_Studiothe way u made it sound like i can literally just take shadows code and movement, throw it in frontiers and now we have shadow in frontiers

[@sethgob5591]

No he means the opposite. You can just take stage data from Frontiers and dump into Shadow. Because you can and thats what the modder did. ​@@Mr.WheeIer

[@GlytchGames]

@@Mr.WheeIer that’s uh… actually exactly something you could do, yeah Though it’d be a little more complicated than “throw”ing it in there, there’d be a lot of unpacking and repacking to do then you gotta go through the process of testing everything and making sure something about frontiers doesn’t screw up any physics or graphics, scripted areas and platforming may be heavily affected by the changes this would bring

[@TheAxmore]

it'd be sick if someone took this and basically added 4-2 onto the end. like instead of the goal ring it transitions to the starting tunnel from 4-2. Then it'd almost be like a full length shadow gens level

[@whisper_ishere518]

Yeah and maybe act 2 could be the update 3 versions of those levels in reverse order, without the weird spedometer gimmick from 4-G

[@sbc7246]

I actually want something like: 4-2 + 4-4 as Act 1 4-G + 4-H as Act 2.

[@TheMysteriousGamer6]

Seeing this level of quality from the community this early in this game’s life cycle gives me tremendous hope for its future.

[@sonicheroesfan1]

This looks amazing and I love how you integrated the interactive gimmicks of Shadow Gens like the spear switches and the puntable black arms soldier, it's so clever, amazing job

[@rishenxb1s705]

We got good cyberspace physics before gta6

[@Unleash_YT]

Can't wait for the PEAK 3-5 port!

[@ecksdii]

so true

[@PolarityOfNeoSoulCity]

​@@denjishisui1642Honestly I'd wanna try it with the Quick Step being like a pseudo-drift

[@ethanwayne6973]

​@@PolarityOfNeoSoulCityYou mean Quick Slide?

[@PolarityOfNeoSoulCity]

@@ethanwayne6973 yep, and after using it in the Open Zone, I'd be all for it since it has the drift mechanic, albeit not as tight as one would hope.

[@TheAlphazoneYT]

The best Cyberspace Level now with the improved Shadow Generations physics. It’s perfect!

[@turbobist2889]

I'm so glad the backround has the effects back. The initial wip didn't have the traffic or moving squares, which made it feel a bit empty. Anyways, this looks really cool and makes me excited for the future of shadow generations mods

[@OrangeToadGamer]

4-4 is my favorite Cyberspace track in terms of music, so I'm glad to see it modded into Shadow Gens

[@nabunan]

This mod proves that Frontiers' cyberspace levels would be so much more fun if they made Sonic's boost actually fast LOL

[@Okcool12569]

Can't wait for the inevitable 1-2 port

[@gek3157]

that actually already happened day one of this game coming out lol

[@Okcool12569]

[@Rush-jh4xc]

Plays so much better here

[@RafaMarquinaYT]

this is darn good, and seems very polished. can't wait to play it

[@spongebobfan78]

It is interesting how people managed to port Frontiers stages into Shadow Gens faster than Unleashed stages into Sonic Gens.

[@jmcfar03]

most likely because both games are on pc so getting the files and shit are a lot easier for anyone who just owns both games and has modding knowledge

[@ZPlays_]

Project frontiers looking crazy

[@mach8114]

Cyberspace felt more like the levels of frontiers than the open zones did, so I was assuming we’d get this level if there were any new levels in x gens, glad I was wrong though, I think chaos island had way more potential, plus I think of cyberspace more as special stages now anyways.

[@rafisol4910]

i honestly can't wait until someone ports all of the cyberspace levels into shadow generations including the ones from the last horizon DLC

[@GlytchGames]

We need a megamix of all the cyberspace levels seperated into their themes Like, have all the highway levels in a single continuous stage, all the chemical plant levels, all the green hill, and all the sky sanctuary You could use seperate stages in the HUB to enter each of these

[@DawnSRC]

yooooo fantastic work on this! its going to be weird playing this stage without being able to hit the griddy after speedrunning it so much tho lol

[@ecksdii]

i'm sure y'all will find a way to skip stuff with spear glides or the doom wings haha

[@Karianysu]

Shadow Frontiers

[@whisper_ishere518]

This is looking absolutely peak, it looks like it was always meant to be here, maybe the white space music could be the results acreen music from Frontiers?

[@TerraBlue_451]

4-4 was the best cyberspace stage in Frontiers, it's fun seeing it ported.

[@Playstation_buttons]

You modders are making this game better 👍

[@MoonSarito]

The best cyberspace stage on Sonic Frontiers on the best 3D boost game of the Sonic franchise. Just perfect.

[@Sonicfans1]

Wow, you guys are already some sick mods!!! Looking forward to trying this out

[@LegitPunisherProGaming]

Nice! would be dope to see 4-2

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

Now cyber space is peak

[@ultrasphoenix]

Damn they even made a Hub Center for Eternal Highway, that’s sick lol

[@indecisiveponderer643]

YES!! Can't wait for the final frontiers spaces to be ported, hopefully with camera controls.

[@ice_popzz6623]

Bro this got me messed up, good work

[@furious_pie466]

Genuinely if you took a screenshot shot of this without the hud it would be VERY hard to tell if this was a Shadow Generations mod or Frontiers mod really good stuff mate.

[@AnandMaatra]

I pray sonic frontiers 2 stages are like this

[@TerraBlue_451]

4-4 feels like a proper small scale Sonic level, like a botw shrine equivalent for Sonic levels, which is good considering that was the entire point.

[@Vantoxify]

Shadow Generations physics are sooooo good. I love Frontiers but my God those cyberspace physics weren’t good. Even the way Shadow feels in his stages vs Sonic in the open zone, I like that Shadow feels weighted and hope Frontiers 2 uses that feel instead of the floatyness of Frontiers 1

[@bautistasolisgd4988]

Well it's lógic, both games have the same codes and made by the same engine, so it's easy to put the frontiers levels in shadow Generations

[@ToucanElegant]

So maybe one day we can have a Kronos island mod for Shadow Gens

[@emerl2002]

Cyberspace 1-2 with Doomwing should be fun

[@lordpeeps1]

Wait eternal highway is actually a really pretty name for this. We should just call it this from now on when referring to this specific cyberspace aesthetic

[@Cooled_animates]

That's because Eternal highway is the *official* name for that level theme.

[@instinctive3066]

Ok I get this was probably one of the easier stages to port but it still baffles me how it hasn’t even been 3 weeks since the game has came out

[@Jesus_PK]

Pretty nice 👀

[@ThatREDDYBoi]

I'm... currently open-mouthed.... Oh my god

[@shilze1]

SPEED HIGHWAY, RADICAL HIGHWAY, BINGO HIGHWAY, ETERNAL HIGHWAY, ARE THERE ANY OTHER HIGHWAYS I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?

[@ecksdii]

wait until you hear about lethal highway

[@KingBloomZ]

Act 2 of Eternal Highway should be based on the Final Horizon version of the stage 4-H

[@thealandude9146]

Damn got it looking exactly the same already

[@vittosphonecollection57289]

Fr I'm suspecting that Sonic himself is doing these mods by this point

[@_bulo_]

looks awesome

[@ashemabahumat4173]

Now it just needs to be twice as long and it'll be a good stage, lol

[@ChristianCastro-it9qj]

Chill out Sonic moders, the game just have some days 😂 (Sorry if is bad written)

[@Playstation_buttons]

Let the modders cook 🔥

[@ChristianCastro-it9qj]

@Playstation_buttons is very crazy the things that the modders can do :0

[@Pepsi12Rox]

SEGA needs to make their own mario maker game for sonic.

[@Werdna-ob2ul]

Absolutely!

[@AntolaRes]

yeah but then any game sonic team makes would be trash by comparison, the modding community is already more skilled. Im not against the idea but i think it is very unlikely

[@Genesis-XE]

Iizuka has said no

[@arivivith4375]

Crazy how my favorite sonic frontiers cyberspace stage (excluding update 3 stages) looks so mid now when played on shadow generations.

[@AFriendlyElfFella]

I’m surprised you didn’t put the stage over Chaos Island

[@hydraails]

fire

[@calvinstallman9480]

Hear me out project frontiers for shadow gens

[@LenamLorbington]

Is it possible at all to stitch a couple of the cyber space levels together to get one big stage?

[@ecksdii]

in theory, yes. the game can load multiple stages' worth of objects and terrain, but making all of those stages fit together is the hard part. you'd need the ability to move stage assets to a different place, which is relatively simple for terrain and collision, but paths and object layouts are tricky. to my knowledge, no currently available level editor supports moving entire level layouts, so that will need to be done by hand. beatz' unity editor has some support for this, but it's not fully finished. as for the level transition itself, you'd have to merge everything i mentioned above no matter what. there is an object that lets you teleport the player between locations, though you would need to tweak the sequence to not look janky. so tl;dr it's possible, but as of now it would take A LOT of effort haha.

[@just_an_elli]

Good physics don't fix poor level design, but at least it makes it more tolerable I guess

[@RyderPlatinumWarpstar]

I thought this was a Frontiers mod. Kinda shows how similar the two games are.

[@just_an_elli]

Maybe at a first glance, but I don't have much of a reason to go back and play Frontiers (not that I was ever dying to replay it before Shadow Gens released) aside from the multiple islands if I ever get bored of Shadow's single hub world, and even then, there's only 3 unique islands in Frontiers (Rhea and Ouranos are just copy/paste)

[@Hyp3rSonic]

@just_an_elli respectable. For me, however, I will still enjoy playing Frontiers (to be real, only speedrun Cyberspace and the boss rushes 😂)

[@JKImStranded]

i wonder if it’s possible to combine the 3d levels from cyberspace into one

[@gablink5190]

Will the Final Horizon stages be featured as well?

[@AntolaRes]

Yo mama

[@ecksdii]

not in the plans currently, but i may look into porting some of them in the future

[@gablink5190]

@@ecksdii cool

[@donstarplayz]

How is it that one of Frontiers’ only original stages looks so bland and lifeless in comparison to any one of Shadow Grnerations’?

[@legolloyd2009]

if i'm getting this right, 3 stages are combined into 1 act?

[@ecksdii]

none of the stages are combined. 4-2 and 4-4 replace the main acts of space colony ark, while the other 4 levels are challenge acts

[@legolloyd2009]

@@ecksdii I see

[@claudiagiraldo8705]

Is it just me or is shadow way more faster than sonic in frontiers?

[@chaomasterzero4610]

What are you gonna do for the 2D stage tho

[@Sydney_Angelyt]

Could you consider porting 4-H?
