Sonic 3D no flickies hack

Should we make an article about the hack, even if brief, or is that pretty much overkill for such a simple hack? (though that directly changes the core gameplay) Right now the only mention of it in the wiki is in my article.--Sik 19:31, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

I believe it's significant enough from a technical point of view to merit one, since S3D is hacked very rarely. --Shobiz 20:01, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
It got its own article, so rephrased sentence about it to point to it instead of the board topic =P --Sik 00:26, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Sonyc

Hey, if you can, can you see about uploading a video of the method to beat the first level of Sonyc? Or at least a link to where you found out the level could be finished. The video won't work in my vba for some reason.--MathUser 00:01, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Sik: (teach me how to speak properly in the Wiki =P) I was tempted to do it, just didn't want to take up much space on my hard disk =/ What's the best video compression method in VBA that doesn't yield 0 bytes? =P

Heck if I know, VBA comes with a video recorder tho, you can use that without much trouble. What is the link for where you discovered the level could be beaten?--MathUser 00:12, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
OK, found one of the codecs that works, but gonna rerecord with a lower quality (119MB x_X). Also, I never checked any link, if that's what you meant. I actually played the game before, and I've beaten the level several times before even looking at this article. It may seem obvious that you have to collect the emeralds once you see them, but some are really hard to find (e.g. the rightmost one or the one at the left of the waterfall that you have to jump on the palmtrees), so if you can't find them, you won't be able to beat the level. Also I'm try to beat the second level (the ruins one). I initially thought it may be unbeatable (a single mistake and you're out), but I think that it actually is, just needs a lot of patience...

Video uploaded, check the Sonyc article. Sik 04:44, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
Glad to see the level is actually completable. I played it before, and thought I had all the Emeralds, but i guesss I missed one somewhere. If there is a savestate for the third level I'm sure it's accessible. But if you beat the second level and upload the video of you completing that that would be cool too. But not nessesary.--MathUser 05:34, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
I just remembered why the second level was unbeatable: I've finished up in a dead way. Gonna retry later, maybe I missed some emerald =/ If somebody else can do it first, let me know! Sik 05:51, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

You can sign your edits just like Wikipedia, with 4 tildes (~) at the end. MuteKi 00:06, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks (never talked in Wikipedia either XD) Testing. Also wondering about indentation =/ Sik 00:08, 31 July 2008 (UTC)Sik

That's a colon before the post. MuteKi 00:14, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
Test. Also trying with the signature, made HUGE mistake before =P Sik 00:16, 31 July 2008 (UTC) Also making video now.
