This was last edited on the 14th June 2021: - Sonic Delta version 0.64 has been released recently.

When I bought the cart, I thought the cart was 8MB of size. Turns out it's only 4MB. No wonder why Sonic Delta and Super Street Fighter II didn't work! I deeply apologise for this mis-information. The rest of the chapters are still correct and accurate. As of October 2022, I'm no longer updating this thread. I did replay this game in SHC22 (check my streams) and still work as this video details.

You're always on a roll when it comes to amusing intros (Millie switches off the device). It's nice to see that the overall rom hack receives a lot of feedback and continuous updates to try and fix bugs, and more. I strongly agree with your points on the Sonic 2 portion of the game. Quality over Quantity. Just a shame that wasn't fully represented. Unoptimised music for Sonic 2 plus 3 & Knuckles just doesn't feel right. A lot of advanced tech solutions to fix those crashes just to load the rom as intended. I can tell a huge amount of work and effort was put into this. Must have been frustrating, but is worth doing various tests to find the most optimal solution for the best experience.

Just out of interest, it might be a good idea at some point to revisit this hack redhotsonic because Neto is still updating it as I speak, the current update stands at v0.69 and Neto's introduced a new similar options menu to Sonic 3 Complete with the choice to change Sonic 3's music to proto or final and or to go straight to the ''Blue Sphere'' game or to view the Sonic Delta Credits. It now has 50Hz optimised music for every game in the hack (especially Sonic 1) so he is slowly really making some neat progress with some major changes. I feel he may be getting closer now to actually finishing it. Neto is the most dedicated Sonic hacker i've ever seen having spent more than an entire decade on this one ROM hack. The SRAM save thingy might even be fixed as I started playing it on the X7, turned it off, came back and the save window still showed Zone 1. Here's hoping this is fixed or gets fixed because save stating is still a no-go because the ROM still sits at 5 Megabytes - 40 megabits. Never has the name ''Sonic Delta'' been more confusing for a Sonic hack during today's pandemic.

It would also have a special 32X CD version that would take advantage of the 32X hardware for less slowdown.

Sonic Delta 40 Mb has its own hardware ( www.neto-games.com.br/hardware/sonic_delta_40Mb_hardware.php ) and it works on real hardware.

Yeah, hence I made a pinned comment that I will change overtime. I did feel it wasn't exactly the game's fault, but as it uses mappers, a lot of easily grabbable carts can be picky with it. I'm trying to think from the average Joe's point-of-view who would grab the game, put it on a cart, and expect it to work. Once the X7 and co gets updates, I'll probably change the rating. As for your link, that's pretty interesting. Unfortunately, I do not have the technical skill to do something like that otherwise I so would have done that for the video! 😅 Still a good ROM hack though and had fun. I just feel the S2 portion needs cutting down a tad. Keep up the good work and I look forward to the next update! 😃

@@redhotsonic how much did you pay (or donated) for the ROM? because in the ending you compare this to commercial games as if it was the same context. so it seemed exactly that you was blaming the game. i think your analysis of the everdrives compatibility was nice, but the reasoning on the ending was ungrateful with all the work Neto does for this community. so many contributions made by him with generosity. and from the technical point of view he is improving the flashcards to follow better the SEGA standards.
@redhotsonic3 жыл бұрын
@@marcosassis0 - I didn't donate anything as the ROM was released for free. I still have the right to criticise though. What I did do though is buy an X3, Mega Pro and a Mega SD solely for this game if that means anything. While it may appear to not exactly be the game's fault and it's more the flash carts to blame, I'm thinking from an average Joe's point of view. Not everyone has the technical know-how to build their own flash cart with mapper support. This game requires it. This game requires more than most ROMs do. Hence it's rating of partially. It goes over 4MB which makes it incompatible with a lot of carts so the game itself had an influence to it working or not-working on hardware. I think my rating is more than fair. And I'm not dissing Neto's work at all and he knows it. In fact, there's a topic over at Sonic Retro where he and I and others helped each other and fixed a ton of issues for Sonic 2. I also discovered the code for the blue goo to fall on Eggmans head (CPZ boss) still being in the final game and Neto improved on it and found more. I have a huge amount of respect for Neto but that doesn't mean I'm going to kiss ass either. I'm hoping my comments actually help improve the game and not upset him. And as about comparing to commercial games, well, duh. I can't say, "it won't load... But it's not a commercial game so let's fix it ourselves and say yes it works". It would defeat the purpose of this series as we could do that to ANY game that comes up No or Partially. For example, Sonic Adventure 64 does not work on real hardware. But you can hex edit the ROM and change a lot of code which will take you hours to get it to "run" extremely slowly. Does that mean I should change the rating to a yes? Well, no, because it's not our job to fix it. Neto may have done everything he can his side, but with its high requirement, it doesn't deserve special treatment or a pardon that any other game cannot get. That's my view. I'm not biting back at you or anything, just explaining my side and how I see things. Of course, you're welcome to disagree. At the end of the day, the rating I give is my opinion and not a fact.

I'm not surprised that the dedicated EPROM cartridge didn't work. Mappers are dedicated chips added to the board, so you need more specialized access techniques to make it work. The EverDrive series HAS to have a mapper because it can switch games on the fly without reprogramming. A board meant for reproduction (read: bootleg) cartridges won't spend the extra money unless it needs it.

I have a meme and a question. Meme: Redhotsonic: “if your here for background noise, power off this video.” Me, who has watched this video multiple times: I have no such weakness! Question: has anyone played this on Genesis plus Gx on Wii? If so how do you get it working with the altered OS.

Actually, the title of the game is referring to megaBITS, not megaBYTES. The game is 40 megabits in total, which is equivalent to 5 megabytes. (The difference is that megabytes has both letters capital and megabits have only the m capitalized.

16:55 I feel that this is unfair. The question is "But does it work on Real Hardware", not "But does it work on these flashcarts". The game itself runs fine on real hardware. It's the flashcarts problem.

This review is done from an average person’s perspective, most people are only capable of playing hacks through flashcarts and don’t have the know-how to build custom cartridges with all the proper specs to work. I appreciate these reviews because of the fact that they don’t get overly technical about the ratings. It’s not an automatic full yes just because it works after heavy modifications, because not everyone is capable of doing these modifications to the rom

And it says: It won't be possible save the progress of the game in these conditions Get in contact with the maker of the device and request the support to the SEGA Mapper with SRAM via register #0 Technical information: The register #0 of the mapper needs to be used to alter between the ROM/RAM after the $200000 address, responding to the following commands: move, b #1 ($A130F1) : Activate SRAM move, b #1 ($A130F1) : Deactivate SRAM Press START To continue without the progress saving support.

I'm leaving this comment before I finish the video just to post my guess -- if this ROM hack uses bank switching properly, my guess is that it should work. A ton of NES games were larger than the NES' 6502 could address and thus used bank switching to get around this issue. I'm guessing the 68k in the Genesis can do the same.

Now,i might be useless here,but im a native portuguese speaker and i will try to help you out with the error message. You got three different ones: First off,we have the message when you simply cannot run the game. The message says in English as follows: "Mapper not initialized." Second one,when you cant save: "Missing SRAM. Press - START - to continue,but without support for saving." Third one,when the game crashes after collecting a chaos emerald: "Addressing Error." I only translated the text i could understand,as i do not speak mega drive.
