In fact, the Steam version of SA2(being the only PC version) is the only version of SA2 for which any significant hacking has been done.

Edit: SA1 on the other hand, most of the hacks for it are for the 2004 PC release of SADX and no one really wants to bother with the steam version.

It's been a while since I've had that version of SA1. Is that version compatible with controllers? I'm thinking of getting it again.

^I'm no expert, but I think improved support for modern gamepads is one of the few things the Steam version of SA1 has over the 2004 release. That said, most pre-existing SA1 modes are for the 2004 version, and there is is enough difference between the two versions code wise to render much of the documentation that has been made for the 2004 version useless with the steam version. Do note that most of the mods that go deeper than simple texture swaps/replacements specifically use the US version of SADXPC 2004(though finding a US executable to drop into a non-US copy shouldn't be that hard. Also, as far as I know, buying the Steam version is the easiest way of obtaining a copy of the ADX soundtrack for use with the recently released soundtrack customizer released for the 2004 version(ADX audio being another advantage the steam version has when comparing unhacked versions)

That mode is truly AMAZING! *_* So much new stuff, and nothing useless! You make my dream come true by creating Night Garden, and not only by that. Hope you and your team worked on it, because some ideas also waiting to become real. Very great work!
Only two idea I wanted to announce is add to Market menu themes... Somewhere. And change Fortune-teller house so we can rename chao my himself fast. Yeah, not so much big problem, but...
Just Russian.

Probably a stupid question but with the "Mixing colors" code is there still a chance to be able to get two tone chao? And if so do the new colors allow new two tones? :surprise:

So after buying sonic adventure 2 on steam during the steam summer sale. I started to look around for mods to make the Chao garden more fun to use and that is when I stumbled upon the chao world extended mod.While it's great and all. There is an issue that I do not like that much. You see. when I play with my chao. I befriend just about all of them except for one. This poor chao always tend to see my dark side and I tend to keep it that way. However now with this mod. When I want to abuse him... He instantly dies! So this brings me to my question. Is there a way to keep him from dying so easy with out turning off the world extender codec?

oh... whoops.

Also I got a new problem now. When ever I enter the chao world now as sonic. He turns into amy.

___edit___

And He also looks like amy outside of the chao garden too.

__edit___

Seems that if you put your computer into sleep mode over night and launch the game the next day, and the Xbox controller does not become fully functional (like it does to me when ever I do this) this will also cause the mod to turn sonic into Amy. I fixed the problem the same way I fixed the controller problem by unplugging it and plugging it back in... Interesting.

This mod is a really awesome mod for raising chao with. It makes raising chao more fun. I remember using v4.5 a month ago. This new update sounds cool. I should try it out soon when I get the chance.

Hey, so I really want this mod to work, however, I can't seem to fix this odd bug I'm getting, which makes single player games rather unplayable. Specifically Eggman stages. Eggman doesn't have his usaual targeting rockets and just the volcan cannon (Or whatever it's called), which makes clearing stages pretty impossible. Tails is also incredibly fast, but that is much more doable than the eggman's lack of homing missiles. Along with this, some of the textures are a bit buggy... which sort of goes against trying to pretty up the game with the hd textures.

It's also worth mentioning that this bug happens even without mods installed, all that is needed to trigger it is the loader being installed. Having no mods/codes, as well as JUST "Chao World Extended" files installed. Uninstalling via the modmanager fixes all the problems, and sets the game to vanilla.
