It's Sonic Adventure 2 in Sonic Robo Blast 2, revamped and reworked for 2.2!
This is a full conversion mod with new levels, characters and abilities to make for one cohesive adventure!
This is the first demo release. Future releases are planned to add more levels!
Hope you enjoy!

- This mod only works on 2.2.15 and above! If you're getting issues like the level not completing properly or not seeing the Adventure Style HUD, please update your SRB2 version.
- By default, the main pack uses ForceCharacter. You can't switch characters, since level headers are hardcoded.
- However, if you run the "multiplayer" command, this adds a patch file which removes ForceCharacter from the level headers. (You can also just add the patch file manually.)
- This patch file will also add holographic objects to the stages that allows the levels to be completable by any character.
- Additionally, the patch file implements the "sa2abilities on/off" command. By default, this is set to off, in order to avoid interfering with custom characters.
- You can also toggle sa2abilities by pressing Fire and Fire Normal at the same time. (This is necessary in Record Attack since console isn't accessible there.)
- Emblems are not obtainable in the "multiplayer" version of the pack.
- This pack is heavily recommended to be played in OpenGL. Visual errors and lag may occur if played in Software.
- This pack comes pre-installed with all necessary characters/assets. This means, for example, you shouldn't add characters such as Shadow yourself, otherwise mod conflicts may occur.

- All of these abilities are disabled by default in the multiplayer version of the pack, however you can re-enable them with the "sa2abilities on/off" command, or by pressing Fire and Fire Normal at the same time.
- All characters can use their double-jump abilities any time they are in mid-air.

Sonic
- Sonic's thok has replaced with the homing thok.
- Spin dash no longer has to be at a stand-still to charge, and also charges faster.
- Chaining spin dashes will retain your momentum, similar to the spam-dash.
- Sonic has the bounce bracelet. (Jump + Spin)
- Sonic can perform the light dash. (Custom 1)

Shadow
- Shadow only has one Chaos Snap, à la 2.1 SRB2 Heroes.
- Shadow only has a horizontal Chaos Snap, no vertical ones.
- The stored speed for Shadow's Chaos Snap caps at normalspeed.
- Shadow has the same changes to the spin dash as Sonic.
- Shadow has the bounce bracelet. (Jump + Spin)
- Shadow can perform the light dash. (Custom 1)

Tails
- Tails' flight has been replaced with a multi-ability slow fall.
- Tails' secondary ability has been replaced with Fang's pop-gun.
- Tails is able to shoot while moving, as well able to shoot in mid-air.

Eggman
- Eggman has the exact same abilities as Tails.

Knuckles
- Knuckles has been given multi-glide.
- Knuckles' secondary ability has been replaced with CA2_MELEE.

Rouge
- Rouge has the exact same abilities as Knuckles.
- Sonic Adventure 2 had a scoring system that awarded you points for doing specific actions in a level. However, these actions were often obscure and inconsistent.
- SA2:Blast has a new scoring system that awards you points for interacting with anything in the stage at a fluid pace.
- Now, just about everything you can interact with in the level gives you points. For example, rings give you 10 points each, dash rings give you 200 points, monitors give you 500, extra life monitors give you 1000, etc. Enemies always give you 200 points, as enemy combos don't exist anymore.
- Some points are continuous, like grind rails and zoom tubes, which each give you 10 points per second. However, for actions you can perform infinitely, there is a limit on the amount of points you can earn before they stop awarding you anything.
- Whenever you earn points, an 8-second timer starts ticking down, indicated by the star spinning in the top-right corner. You can reset this timer by gaining more points.
- If you collect 1000 points without the timer running out, you'll get a point bonus. The first time you collect 1000 points, you'll get a 1000 point "Good!" bonus. If you collect another 1000 points, you'll get a 2000 point "Great!" bonus. This continues all the way up to a 10000 point "Perfect!" bonus, after which it'll loop back down to the 1000 point bonus.
- When you complete the level, you'll be rewarded with a score and a letter rank from E to A based on the points you earned in the level, as well as a time bonus, which starts at 100000 and decrements by 250 for every second you spend in the level.
- In treasure hunting stages, you earn more points the faster you collect a shard. You'll get the maximum points if you collect a shard in under 30 seconds.
- You can use hint monitors to get a clue as to where the closest emerald shard is, however, this will cost 10 seconds from your timer.

Sonic Adventure 2 is one of my favorite games in the franchise, so seeing it lovingly recreated in SRB2 is a joy to behold. There's definitely a number of flaws with this demo, though. Sonic and Shadow could do with being able to gain momentum going down slopes, the A-Rank requirements for Pumpkin Hill are perhaps too strict for how large the stage is and the small range of the Emerald Radar, and Sand Ocean sucks to play on account of the fact that Eggman’s a heavyweight with a relatively low jump height in a stage where moving platforms move way too fast and can turn on what feels like a dime. (The gaps that Tails needs to make with his hover are also just barely doable in Prison Hall, so it’d be nice to have some more lenience on that front.) There’s still a lot of work to do before this mod can fulfill its full potential—but it IS possible.

Looking forward to seeing what this will look like once it’s complete. This is already an absolute upgrade from the last SA2-inspired level pack we’ve seen.

Great mod, but there's a problem: I'm on Android, and every time I load in the game crashes. Literally every time. With or without other mods, too.

Someone told me that ForceCharacter is bugged on Android, so that means you might have to play with the multiplayer patch in order to avoid crashing.

This is a really good level pack and will be my definitive level pack when it's finished (note: I almost died having to download this AGAIN)

Excellent in concept and aesthetics, but there are a few things that I hope will be fixed in future updates.

1. Sonic and Shadow's spamdash doesn't work like it does in SA1. Even with the update that was supposed to fix it, it still kills your momentum if you try and use it. I think that fixing it would require you to either make a custom build or recreate the Spindash from the ground up with Lua (which you might as well do anyway, considering how much the vanilla one sucks.)

2. Shadow's Chaos Snap works fine enough when you can chain together three of them, but only having one as a sort of pseudo-thok makes it really offputting that it always follows the player's input direction rather than the camera direction, even in Manual mode. It's also really touchy, and has sent me flying off cliffs far too many times, on top of the fact that the Homing Attack has a ridiculously short range that leads to you often activating Chaos Snap on accident. I wound up having to switch to Automatic mode to beat Radical Highway.

3. Sand Ocean is incredibly unpleasant, due to how SRB2 handles moving platforms. I don't know if this is something you can fix, but in most games, moving platforms pause for a moment when they're about to change direction, to give the player enough time to react, and give them a window to safely jump on or off. The platforms in Sand Ocean not having that makes them unnecessarily frustrating to work with, although that issue was somewhat mediated once I realized that the endpoints were marked with shadows.

4. Tails and Eggman being out of their mechs makes their movesets feel odd. I'm not holding my breath for this to get changed, considering you still also have Rouge's ass-old sprites to contend with, but even just giving them a weapon would go a long way towards improving this - which, while still far from a quick afternoon's work, would be a lot easier than trying to animate those big, intricate robots.

Absolutely amazing. One of the best mods made. But it still has its cons. At the end of a level. It will soft lock you. Not finishing it. But if using adventure sonic it can be bypassed until you do the emerald shard find levels and that where you can't cross. So I was stuck on pumpkin hill level. So I hope you fix this in the next update

(This is kinda long so expect some typos and stuff cuz I'm a fast typer) Its pretty good but I have alot of gripes with it. The first is the characters which aren't exactly bad but each have a problem for me, like with sonics spindash being a momentum killer and not being able to roll and also not the adventure sonic mod, tails flight changed to more of a glide and the shooting is very bad and have some really stupid restrictions, knuckles is pretty much perfect except not having a diving ability in air and the combat is kind of not as satisfying as sa2 and being able to climb on ceiling slopes which is probably hard to make it work well (tho i think from mods like chaotix with espio or trip being able to stick upside down i think kinda make it possible but again probably not very easily,), rouge sprites are very outdated and about the same as knuckles, eggman is kinda the same as tails, and shadow is kinda just another sonic and also is kinda dymmed down from the shadow mod. I think alot of the problems with the characters are kind of understandable like the rogue sprites not being updated or making tails fly more like a glide to make the levels not super op, and maybe you can't use the adventure sonic mod or maybe you think it makes the experience more interesting with soemthing less accurate, but a thing i can't really get is not being able to play as a different character at least not very easily. Idk if that be easy to fix or not but it kinda annoys me. Going outside of that the levels are pretty much perfect for being both accurate and also different enough from the og game to make this mod more worth trying, but my only problems is that the camera not changing for moments like with the truck chase is a lil disappointing to me and I think using something like that new sol camera addon to show behind the player when the truck comes in at the stary would be really cool tho the truck would also probably have to come in a lil later to make it not just hit you when the camera turns since that just be kinda stupid. Speaking of getting hit I think the enemies collision is pretty cool and it feels more satisfying to defeat than base enemies, tho the collision can move you in a random direction you don't wanna be or stopping your momentum, and if you get any close to the main gun robot it will instantly hit you most likely without any time to hit it, and the flying gun robots don't shoot at all and when as tails or eggman you can't shoot underneath them or at least very close to them or in general can't hit anything far enough to not get hit by the main gun robot, and also the gun soldier robot (i forgor the name) sometimes just stays in place if it's killed still innits hit animation but not disappearing. And one more thing about the enemies, I think it be nice to have a lil more types of them like with their shield or the gold flying one that disappears at some point tho probably make the time of when it dissappears alot longer if that enemy is even possible, and also if the spriter is willing to make more varients. Going a lil back to level design i think there should be a lil more stuff to find like in stages like city escape or radical highway since you can walk ontop of the building, and I think having a kil more routes like in the modern sa2 mod would be cool too but it probably be alot of work, and I would also like to see some more smaller things like the welcome sign in city escape or that area in city escape were you finf the lost chao and the chao garden being an unlockable level or a multiplayer exclusive, probably as a hangout map with the main chao gardens and kindergarten along with the main lobby, the main chao stuff probably not possible but maybe also have some chaos sitting down in some places like decorations, and speaking of the chao keys from my experience do pretty much nothing but just be collectibles for the game. Other stuff I forgot to mention or simply just ideas i have are, the swingable polls which like alot of things are probably not here from limitations, the logo can have some touches to make it feel a Lil more polished, the title screen I think can look better if it were more like sa2 battles menu or the dreamcast menu, tails and eggman not being in their mech or having unique sprites whcih are probably to have more time with the main stuff like levels (tho maybe the mechs could be seen behind taisl and eggman but that's kinda just what I would do), both eggman and tails should also have a focus on first person or maybe make soek kind of charge up for the guns and change it to first person that way, maybe add a momentum mod to the game or maybe recommend a momentum mod since without one it feels very slow especially going down the many slopes in city escape, maybe there could be some secret master emerald shards around the stages that don't get detected but still count as getting kne fo the three shards and maybe you get extra points for it, maybe have some kind of omochao easter egg somewhere, have more big thr cat cameos if there isn't one outside of tails stage and if there already is then maybe make some unique sprites for some areas like in city escape and if there is then this mod is a 10/10, stages don't have a bottom or top graphic for their backgrounds, and maybe there could be some unique stages for multiplayer like in sa2 battle and maybe some unique charactersof that's possible. That's kinda about all the ideas, recommendations, and critics I have about the mod, I probably am asking way too much and maybe come across as rude, but I do really like this mod and h9w it's pretty much the first public usage of rail grinding in a level pack which is very funny cuz sa2 was the first time rails were a thing which makes this mod very cool if that was on purpose, and I think despite what I said about the mech stages they're actually kind of fun for being more fats paced and the shooting i think in the og was way too easy to be fun, and I do like that you can jump on the enemies noe that tails and eggman are out of their mechanics which kinda helps with my complaint that you can't shoot them underneath (tho it still is kinda stupid to me), and the level choices are pretty much perfect even tho they probably were choosewn from being each characters first level other than knuckles which is his second but like pumpkin hill is awesome and works well as a first level still and has alot of stuff I probably wouldn't imagine adding in like how the bottom of the stage isn't a death pit like in the og or some of the added parts to the stage which all feel authentic, it's kinda a representation of what I lvoe most about this mod tbh despite being only a demo and so new. So uh ig I would give this something like a 6 or 7 but as a demo it's a 9/10 for showcasing what is possible now vs the old sa2 level pack despite not being the full game remade. So uh yeah that's about it, see ya

I started playing, everything works fine, except that the end is broken. I just started playing today with the 1.2 version, so I'm guessing that it broke because of that or something

Overall, a great addon. Character movement feels good (even if Shadow bounce isn't canon) and the 6 playable stage do pretty well at showcasing the characters' movesets. Although, I do have a couple gripes with it: namely Tails and Eggman's inability to fire in midair and just Sand Ocean in general. Eggman does feel a tad slippery and, combining that with the wonky physics of the spinny things in the aforementioned stage, it led to a lot of deaths that felt unfair and even a game over or two. Apart from that tho, excellent mod
