[@WaferKat]

Thanks for showcasing my mod! Happy to see people covering my mods, this mod has undergone a lot of playtesting and bugfixing, glad people enjoy the release, feedback for it is appreciated.

[@kiritosintern]

Phenomenal job, Sonic Team should hire you.

[@IronicSonic83]

Love your mod. I have a question though, even if the mod has Gens physics It seems you kept Frontiers updated momentum/air resistance? Jump seems to kept speed even on air

[@quandaledingleofficial6]

Dude go work at sega

[@PropellerTails]

Now this in my opinion is how sonic should've felt in cyberspace, the homing attack and boosting was slow and finicky in vanilla frontiers, seeing this mod is a breath of fresh air and is very cool.

[@Justin-0427]

I mean, they literally ported these stage designs from Generations why not the physics too right? 😂

[@trisxart2393]

I remember someone porting the sonic adventure physics to sonic heroes, I have to find that video again

[@therealspeedster3759]

@@trisxart2393I do remember seeing a video on that

[@TreadwayYT]

It’s not gonna work

[@sgaknfm]

Erm actually They also ported some from unleashed and SA2 🤓🤓🤓

[@NoelleUnknown]

Alright give me the nerd emojis and stuff. But they sadly couldn’t port the physics cause they were actually dependent on the havok physics engine i believe and with Segas license running out between lost world and forces i think, they attempted to make thier own physics which sorta shows. :( (Im not sure if i got everything right here, feel free to correct me if im wrong somewhere)

[@RetroWrites-de7ih]

oh my god he's fast again

[@kaosagamerreal]

power boost and spindash:

[@sukumadehk]

He's slower than the spin dash

[@possibly_ben]

i can't believe that *SONIC* was actually made *FAST*

[@Ather0nline]

​@@sukumadehk and that's how should be?...

[@Ather0nline]

​@@kaosagamerrealand that's how should be

[@ff36_the_idiot]

I can’t believe SONIC out of all games is getting slower

[@Katakuna15]

No wonder why 06 was slow!

[@user-qu7ub1ci5n]

​@@Katakuna15 hımmmm yeah

[@user-hh5kl7np1z]

Luckily, spindash is really op and fast in frontiers. It's a joy using it in cyberspace :)

[@DTPGStudios]

If this is for people to catch up to Sonic, then that just feels off. Just keep Sonic as fast as he is and make him say, "You're too slow!"

[@Ather0nline]

​@@user-hh5kl7np1zit's not

[@peckneck2439]

Seeing this really highlights how slow sonic is in base game's cyberstages.

[@HakumeiTenshi]

Because the levels are shorter, it really doesn't make a difference

[@lamron1202]

@@HakumeiTenshiCutting the amount of content from a stage and reducing his speed it’s not a good solution. Sonic is supposed to be fast.

[@dr.prof.owlbear1956]

Honestly the biggest problem with frontiers is the speed. If they just kept sonic fast in the levels and had his speed in the open world not get slowed every time there was a transition during an obstacle, it would be SO much better.

[@kaosagamerreal]

he does have speed through the power boost and spindash

[@sukumadehk]

I mean in unleashed when you hit an obstacle you slow down

[@TurboPikachu]

@@kaosagamerrealbig issue is that he loses practically all of it whenever not in boost/spindash. It feels like Lost world where Sonic’s basically only walking until boosting. Unleashed, Colors, and Generations meanwhile maintain a satisfying degree of momentum, arguably moreso than Adventure/Afventure2/Heores before them

[@blackdot105]

Frontiers has many issues of equal importance

[@deanmoriarty6015]

no, the problem is Frontiers is it is still using the Lost World framework. increasing the speed of that gives you Forces. they need to create a brand new physics engine with new assets or go back to Unleashed/Gens.

[@_00_-_SHADOW_-_00_]

in my opinion, generations had the best boost formula and just overall feeling in the controls

[@TheOscarGamer_]

Hmm, maybe it isn't 100% Gens but those changes in Sonic's speed and the air drag are much better than Frontiers physics. Animations help a lot with imitating Gens' smooth gameplay as well. Maybe imitating the good old camera movement would nail it

[@kaosagamerreal]

power boost and spindash tho

[@sukumadehk]

But it's slower

[@TheOscarGamer_]

@@kaosagamerreal Those are interesting mechanics ngl

[@aydenthehedgefox9592]

it might be really close to gens, but gens has better game feel (camera angles and such) which enhance things.

[@TheOscarGamer_]

​@@aydenthehedgefox9592 Facts, that's probably what I like most in modern Sonic games

[@angelycross5109]

Wow it's Like sonic generation even got the Boost that is so sick bro i like this alot 10/10💯

[@eXe08]

I was porting Crisis City from gens and i saw this mod just came out its amazing

[@somecitrus7561]

Frontiers’ is cool but I hope Unleashed style jump balls like this comes back someday, it’s so satisfying to just look at

[@sukumadehk]

Generations ball is a bit weird

[@234SuperSimi]

Happy Easter Sonic Central

[@Player_circle]

Frontiers physics are best for adventure, generations and classic level design. Generations physics are good for unleashed level design. Sonic generations levels were hard to play because there was lots of platforming

[@lirip4209]

Even the camera movement is so smooth!

[@RandomlyOnlineLikeAlways]

Hooray! My fav game's physics in one of the newest games! Can't believe it!

[@tenkai207]

first, unleashed physics in generations, second, frontiers physics in frontiers, what next? unleashed in sonic and knuckles physics?

[@Espiochaotix]

With Chameleon physics, Sonic would be god

[@therealspeedster3759]

What exactly is chameleon physics?

[@Espiochaotix]

@@therealspeedster3759 it's godlike powers. Super form without spend rings. I'm always in super form but I change colors so nobody knows. Ninja stuff

[@therealspeedster3759]

@@Espiochaotix ohh interesting I gotta check it out then

[@Espiochaotix]

It'd be great if this gets to SEGA and they made canon. Please support and spread the word. Ultra instict Espio will be real!!

[@kadenhorrocks7182]

Are you the real Espio?

[@etherealhatred]

It's incredible how you can confirm it just by looking at it

[@anthonyyawtwumasimensah197]

There are certain animations like the quick step and stomp which need changing, then the camera needs to imitate the generation one. Since lost world it's been so fixed but the twisting camera added so much emersion to the speed you got in those games.

[@silveramyknux241]

Oh my god, it feels so much better now.

[@MalcomX175]

For the life of me, I'd like to know just why SEGA has been unable to re-create the physics from Sonic Generations (which I assumed was built off of the Unleashed engine which made the movement even better). They had the boost formula pretty solid with Generations. Why is it that Forces and Frontiers felt so much different and even dare I say went backwards??

[@Ather0nline]

Lost world

[@Neoniq41]

This looks waaaay more fun then anything the base game has to offer (except maybe the titan fights ig)

[@arthurbarducci]

Maybe I can buy this game this year :D

[@liamhopkins-4037]

Finally two of the greatest 3d sonic games are actually coming together (sorta)

[@fares_gamer603]

I kinda want that aura lol

[@wend34]

Finally sonic is fast again.

[@SONICFANS4EVER]

Hi Sonic central can i ask you something what music are you using in the intro it's soo relaxing

[@Swiftwindy]

This is what the Overpowered Sonic mod in Generations was like

[@aluzion2616]

It's not generation phisycs, but it's already better

[@DeltaDubs89]

But it is generation's physics. What makes you think it's not?

[@kiritosintern]

Wished the camera distance was closer in cyberspace so we can recreate the more dynamic camera

[@atomskreborn5740]

Now we realize how short these levels are

[@alejandrox.spider-alex2004]

The one thing I am asking Sega and Sonic Team to bring back

[@g.masterlordoftheg-force4770]

Honestly, if Sonic in Cyberspace behaved EXACTLY like in the open-world, I would be happy. But for some reason, he is slower and stiffer within Cyberspace. The spin dash made it better though.

[@gumi_twylit2605]

is there a foreground motion blur mod behind sonic when he is boosting just like in generations and unleashed?

[@NJ_TR]

Could it be that what I've been waiting for so long has come to pass? Sonic was fixed with a boost, he is now again a wave that destroys everything in its path

[@MetalSonic420]

Generations in Frontiers.

[@RIOTZss]

Shouldve used the drift mod with it to 😢

[@HameedYasser]

Wait does that mean you can stomp with momentum?

[@user-qu7ub1ci5n]

❤❤❤🎉

[@MistifulProwess]

this is the most jarring physics change video ive ever seen

[@brianT8721]

I feel like camara speed would make frontiers start to feeling more faster. If sonic's boosts, he should start going off camara for a split second but nope, he always stays in view of the camara.

[@KriegBlackweil]

Does the boost have hitbox ?

[@alejandrobonillabalderas5629]

even with the physics 1-2 is still hard AF to reach an s rank WTF

[@kaosagamerreal]

hot take but i do not like gens controls at all so im not crazy about this tbh also everyone is talking about "YOO HE'S FAST NOW" uhhh did we forget the power boost and spindash?

[@damianvillalba5638]

I knew frontiers sonic was slower but damn

[@IA_777]

This looks more like Unleashed

[@FloofPuppy]

THIS is what I WANTED in the Cyberspace levels! (And the overworlds) Why did it have to be SO fucking BAD at launch?!

[@HereAndNotThere]

If they couldn’t make competent physics for cyberspace and for whatever reason they couldn’t move over gens physics, why not at least use the overworld physics? Surely no one playtested the cyberspace physics and went yeah we cooked here

[@ShadicgunMan]

Actually looks fun now.

[@AronTW]

I know people are complaining saying Sonic should be this fast in frontiers but imo these physics probably wouldn't work well in the Open Zone

[@falloutglasster7807]

They wouldn't, He's too stiff. Not to mention the pop in would be worst than it already is. Plus unleashed and generations sonic is meant for going in a straight like with few turns.

[@AronTW]

@@falloutglasster7807 Exactly As much as I like Sonic being fast, we don't need it to be always apparent. The approach they took in Frontiers was great as it felt a mix of boost and adventure

[@mobas07]

Sonic is slow as hell in Frontiers it feels like you're running through mud. And the open zone and cyberspace already have different physics in the base game so there was no reason to cripple him in cyberspace.

[@kaosagamerreal]

​@@mobas07then use power boost and spindash

[@RenegadeGamer-sj3du]

Yeah this is cool till you realize the base physics of the game were stiff, meaning not really Gens.

[@RenegadeGamer-sj3du]

Gens a bit stiffer than that especially in air.
