SCHG How-to

Guide

From Sonic Retro

Revision as of 22:01, 8 October 2024 by JGMR (talk | contribs) (Adding Features)

The SCHG How-to: series is a spinoff from the Sonic Community Hacking Guide with a focus on how-to, tutorials, and supplementary education. Whereas the traditional SCHG serves more as a map for users to navigate a ROM for themselves, the How-to series is more a "how to get from point A to point B" set of directions. Tutorials range from the very basic to very complex, with an eye towards making sure no part of the process is assumed or left out.

General How-Tos

These guides describe how you can alter some behaviors in the game that might not be to your liking.

Sound Features

These guides cover the application of music and sound effects in the game. After following these guides, porting and adding original music should be possible.
