  1. Yes
Ever wanted to bring back your memories of playing Sonic games on the Genesis?
Ever wondered if there would ever be classic Special Stages without the use of Many Minor Tweaks? Shoutout to that btw, it was the inspiration
Ever felt like you wanted to try entering Special Stages in a new way?

If you've answered yes to either of these questions, this add-on is for you.
This little script adds a couple ways of entering a Special Stage, inspired by the classics.

50 Rings​

The Sonic 1 way.

Grab 50 Rings and get to the end to get a chance at getting a Chaos Emerald.






Star Circle​

This one's from Sonic 2.

Getting 50 Rings will make the next Star Post you touch have a circle of stars appear over it. Jump in for a Special Stage!




Instant Token​

Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Still no Giant Rings, sorry :/

What it says on the tin - Tokens will instantly warp you to their Special Stage.






88 Miles Per Ring​

... Well, this is new.

Getting 50 Rings will spawn sparkles behind you when you run, as if you're ready to travel through time.

During this you will be completely invincible.​

Run for around 10 seconds, and you'll enter a Special Stage.






Cvars​
csp_enable - Enables the script with one of the four styles:
  • 1 (Sonic1/SonicCD/50Rings) - 50 Rings
  • 2 (Sonic2/50Starpost) - Star Circle
  • 3 (Sonic3/Sonic&Knux/Sonic3K/InstaTransport) - Instant Token
  • 4 (TimeTravel/50Rings88mph) - 88 Miles Per Ring
Setting it to 0 will disable it.

csp_keeptokens - By default 50 Rings, Star Circle and 88 Miles Per Ring will disable Emerald Tokens. Toggling this to On will re-spawn the tokens upon level restart.

NOTICE: This only works in Singleplayer due to map syncing.
Have fun.

It's a great mod but it makes getting the chaos emeralds a lot easier, maybe this is great is you wanna use S3 Sonic or any other classic looking Sonic. Although this is probably for Cyberdyme the game crashes when i try to load the mod as a custom character, lol.

BuggieTheBug’s Portal Ring Mod could help with the sonic 1 and 3 special stages.

Great mod, thought it has one flaw so far.
When you do one of the special stage methods that need 50 rings and finish the special stage, the rings just respawn when you get back.
I just got all emeralds on Greenflower 1 just by time traveling over and over again.
Though, it's a great mod nonetheless.

Weeeeell...
The Rings you collected ALSO respawn on the way back in Sonic 2. So I'll just say it's "aesthetic".

amazing, just got all the emeralds before deep sea act 1, please add the big rings from sonic 3&K that would make this even better

Might replace the Emerald Token's state with the Giant Rings in a future update. For now, you'll have to wait.

Might also add these Giant Rings to the S1/CD style of Special Stage entry. Who knows.

Finally, I can get the emeralds faster, and without actual effort!

Jokes aside, This is really cool. Wonder if you can replace the tokens with something else depending on what mode your on.

Pretty awesome, but a problem that I encountered is that the timer resets when I go to a Sonic 2 & 3 Special Stage entrance. Still, it makes me not worry about getting the damn tokens. Very cool!

This is what I was waiting for! It feels very nostalgic, because the star circle + the Sonic 2 Special Stages Port makes the experience with this mod is perfect! Perhaps a model could replace the token sprite? I can think of a couple things....
