Oh, OK.

And the other mod I'm using is called "Character Select mod" by MainMemory. It's where you hold down buttons while a stage is loading to change the character you play as.

It's the only mod I have so far, aside from all the cheat codes that apparently came with the Mod Manager.

EDIT: Also, when I'm focusing on Chao raising, I will probably disable the Character Select mod since it's kind of inconvenient in Chao World; I have to hold down the button for my character or else it will spawn me in as Sonic by default, regardless of who I chose to be when entering Chao World.

Oh. Wait, are the majority of the Chao World Extended-specific codes appearing in the list, or do the other ones appear? If it isn't the former, then I recommend extracting the Chao World Extended files to the Sonic Adventure 2 folder again so that the correct codes appear.

I don't know.

I just extracted the CWE files, and now I can't even open Mod Manager anymore.
As soon as I try to open it, it says it stopped working.

Maybe it's because CWE came with its own Mod Manager, so now I have 2? Should I delete one of them? If so, does it matter which one?

Delete the one that didn't come with Chao World Extended. The files in the Chao World Extended 7z file should be placed directly in the Sonic Adventure 2 folder.

OK, I got it to work now. All the CWE mods show up like they should, along with the CWE cheats, and the Character Select mod I got.

...But now all the default cheats (super jump, super speed, invincibility, always get A rank, etc.) are missing.
Oh, well...

I'll let you know if I have any more major problems.

I, for one, have tried the mod just a few days ago and I'm telling you now, it's fantabulous. The unused Piano and Organ instrument toys and additional Chao animations and sounds won me over. Keep up the good work!

And before I forget, I do have a couple suggestions for future releases just in case:

* Maybe apply the open mouth to the Chao during the "running away screaming" behavior animation.
* The possibility of the Chao friends system (this hasn't been seen in action in the Gamecube game, but information is found about it in this webpage: http://www.tangwistel.com/chaology/interact.html#friend

That is all and good luck with your findings and whatnot. Also, this is my first post on this site after years of inactivity.

Alright, I'm loving this mod so far! Things have been going well now that it's all properly set up.

I have a couple more questions, though.
For the multiple Chao save files... If you copy your save data, will this also duplicate your Chao save? Because I want to be able to carry over most of my Emblems, but if it ends up duplicating the Chao I guess I'll just have to start the new file from scratch.

Also, for the Black Chao mode, can you only have one of these? Or can you make one for every Chao save you have in the game using the Multi Savefile code?

Thanks in advance!

you can copy your main save data, it's not gonna duplicate your Chao save, so you don't need to redo all the stroy each time you create a save for more chao lol

Multiple Chao save files work for any save ! Normal, Black chao and even the Custom Lobby chao skin !
all your chao save will be in Sonic Adventure 2\resource\gd_PC\SAVEDATA with different name, depends what mod you used :
Image

as you can see, i have a save for each Custom Lobby chao skin (ex : SONIC2B__DAY is the custom chao skin for the lobby - Day Lobby)
2 black chao save (SONIC2B__BLK loaded from save file 1 and SONIC2B1_BLK loaded from save file 2)
and 5 normal chao save (SONIC2B__ALF, SONIC2B1_ALF, SONIC2B2_ALF, SONIC2B3_ALF, ....)

with all the custom save and the code multiple Chao save files you can get over 1920 chao

i don't think i can do your 1st suggestion
for the second suggestion, maybe with more work into chao interaction and chao data, i can make it happen

OK, that's good! But wow, 1,920 Chao... That's a LOT, lol

Also, I noticed something that I thought I'd point out...
When two Chao are talking, one of the Chao loses its hit detection. In other words, you can walk right through it, and the camera can clip inside of the Chao. It goes back to normal once the Chao are done talking, though. I'm not sure if this is something that can be fixed, but I thought I'd tell you about it anyway. It's not that big of a deal, at least; it's just a little bit odd.

well the "talk chao" action is on beta, so some glitch or odd stuff can happen, i'm still working on it to make the best chao interaction, some people dream about it.

because talk chao are actually a "preview" of friends chao you can see in beta picture

i never tried a cracked version, but the normal .exe contains more chao colors, so if you load chao world extended without the custom sonic2app.exe of the mod, you can't get more color and the codes like:
- Mixing color
- Normal Chao can make color Chao

will not work for you
