Re: confused

Hoo boy. This is some serious necroposting! I'll raise one last skeleton in order to clarify doubts and misinformation. I will reinforce what was previously stated: "Run/Swim" most likely refers to a Child Chao which first evolves into a Run-type (Neutral/Run, Dark/Run, or Hero/Run) and then gets Sw...

Re: is there a mod that returns the chao gardens to their dreamcast versions

Here you go!
https://github.com/Exant64/DCGarden/releases/

You will notice a few minor layout differences meant to optimise the gardens for proper gameplay (Dark Garden has 3 trees instead of 2, for example), but it is otherwise faithful. Enjoy!

Re: How Did You Get Into Sonic?

This topic brings to mind an anecdote I tell very often that renders it impossible to answer this topic's question. See, I don't remember anything from before I was 4 years old, but I've allegedly been playing Sonic games since I was 2 years old — 1994! I often controlled player 1 and player 2 simul...

Re: [SA2PC MOD] Chao World Extended v7.5 : A new Update!

Also can Hero Chao have mean eyes? Yes! This is possible without any mods and in any version of Sonic Adventure 2**. All you need to do is get a Chao that has mean eyes and evolve it into a Hero. You can do this either by hatching one that already has them OR by evolving an existing Chao into a Dar...

Re: A Possible Sonic Adventure Remake/Re-release

I'd be salivating at the mouth if they accomplished even a portion of what you described, Jeffery. That would be a truly amazing rework (and expansion) of the game! If anything happens at all, I'd want it to be a multiplatform re-release of the Dreamcast versions with the Chao system revamps of the ...

Re: How do you name your chao?

It varies, but my main method is namesmithing. Sometimes, I do it entirely from scratch by mashing together phonetics that I think will fit the current/future appearance of the Chao or a vague personality I have in mind for them. Other times, I start with one or two real words as a base (often deriv...

Re: Which one is preffered version of SA2?

I really enjoy the original Dreamcast version. I know it doesn't have as much content as the other versions, the exclusive features it has make up for it. Taking your Chao on a walk using the VMU is a very cool concept! This! My preferred version of SA2 is only the PC one because of the extensive m...

Re: Most Least Favorite Evolution?

My answer is Dark/Power. I find the chubby body shape endearing, but I'm not fond of the tip of the head. Bonus shout-out to Neutral/Normal Chao — they're cool when you slap some head animal parts on them, but they look too bland to me if they are all-natural because they keep little to none of the ...

My argument would be "If image reactions are a problem, then we should figure out how to address them." That's the primary argument. The primary argument has not moved beyond "Is this a problem?".

Hey, the Grinch! I was surprised at how well a Chao can replicate his expression and attitude, indeed! You did a good job thinking this one up, Jam4u2.

Re: My Recipe For A Fake Tails Chao.

The tricky thing is that Tails is a toasty yellow colour which is pretty much flat between the Monotone Yellow and the Monotone Orange. You can do this recipe either way (Leaning the Chao less towards Swim will result in orange wings), but neither gets closer than the other.
