AKA FuriousFox
It's my old Super Monitor, converted from 1.09.4. However, most of you probably remember it from Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Breaking this monitor gives you 50 rings and instantly transforms you into your super form, no matter how many emeralds you have or what character you are playing.

This object does not overwrite any in-game object. If you want to use it, you will either have to make a map with it (Its Thing # is 3000) or use OBJECTPLACE to place it (it should be right at the end of the list, just hit Rotate Camera L to get to it).

The graphics and SOC are free to use by whoever wants to use them.

Here is a copy of the SOC with comments, if you want to understand how it works (For some reason the comments break the SOC, so don't try to copy and paste this into an SOC and run it)

Code:
Thing 318 # Icon
MAPTHINGNUM = -1
SPAWNSTATE = 1793
SPAWNHEALTH = 1
SEESTATE = 0
SEESOUND = 222 # The sound that is played when the effects are awarded: Super Sonic transformation sound.
REACTIONTIME = 50 # A_RingBox uses REACTIONTIME to determine how many rings to award.

VAR2 = 127 # 1 = Green, 2 = Orange, 4 = Purple, 8 = Blue, 16 = Red, 32 = Cyan, 64 = Silver. Add them all up and you get 127.

ACTION A_RingBox # Awards rings equal to the REACTIONTIME of the object that calls it. In this case, 50.

VAR2 = 0

Heh, it's Sonic 3&K all over again, now with SIGNIFICANTLY less aggravating music!

Also, other character Super forms in SP is very nice indeed.

EDIT: Um, it just spawns a Green Sonic that, when hit, makes you blink a bit and plays the Super transform sound effect, but nothing happens. You don't gain rings either. Doing it with Max rings and all 7 emeralds does nothing either.

Sorry to say, not worked here too. I don't know, seems something is missing, we are doing wrong or using an incompatible version XD.

S Box is broken.

Spawns a Green Sonic, kill it, you flash and hear the Super Transform SFX, and then... that's about it.
 
Hilarious. FuriousFox's tendencies to leave comments everywhere has apparently broken the Dehacked parser.

Additionally, he also forgot that the max thing number is 4095. You can't place this on a map without objectplace.

...Okay, I didn't think the comments would break the wad. I'll fix it up real quick, then I'll go submit a bug report about comments not working the way they should.

EDIT: It should work now, but the comments are gone.

Alright, tried it, and I think it's rather interesting. I also find it interesting that Eggman's shots STILL take 10 rings, but being that it's a Multiplayer super form, it's easy to see why. Also, super music does not seem to play unless the music resets (Via level ups, for example)

Oh, and due to being multiplayer supers, Turrets still rip you to shreds, which I find more of an amusing quality than anything else.

Oh, and it's totally OK to use this in level packs and such, right?

I'd really appreciate it if you posted a mirror, because IE doesn't let me download from here. :(
 
Hmmm...
The Turret
Is now Super!
It can now kill you SuperSonic!
But otherwise it works just fine!
 
It would be cool if you could change the position of the emeralds since it gets in the way of the life icon.

Also, when this happens, the super icon is always Super Sonic's and (when you play as ShadowRE) can change it's colour to a silvery one. Also, the spin sprite sometimes stays the same strangely. 0.o
 
So, I've just played a netgame with the super moniter and this is what I got:

Poor fox...
Anyways, cool soc, but sometimes the song don't change to the super song.
 
Currently trying to modify it so I can go super with other chars by doing some kind of action to give multiplayer emeralds only when you double jump with 50 rings and all the SP emeralds. Never soc'ed before, but I'm doing good so far. (FF inspires another soccing N00B!)
 
Great WAD!
I have liked it!
now,we only need an Ring Weapons in Single Player SOC, but with all weapons with 999 ammo that dont runs out.
