The only option to make an updated web port would be to build from source, and tweak the game to run in WASM (because the game's compiler script lacks an inbuilt option to do that). And, let's be honest, none of us know how to do that.

4-player splitscreen. I'm sure it'd be hard to implement, but that's just something I'd like to see.

Another excuse to play this game again, I suppose.

This message appears when the controller is not supported in the SDL2 input layer. Really all you can do is update SDL2 and hope for the best.

My first exposure to Sonic was when I was who knows how young, playing Mega Collection at my cousins' house. Also, I used to call the Super Peel-Out the Top Dash, because you hold Up to use it. I was never very bright.

Also I'm able to use these controllers when I play the game on my laptop, just this one PC is having problems. Additionally, the problem doesn't persist in SRB2 proper.

I'm not sure if it has a binding by default, but it's at the very bottom of the control configuration page.

Before worrying about whether it shows up on the Master Server, try checking on another device whether you can join from your server's private IP, and then it's public IP (you can find that at whatsmyip.org). If you can join in both cases and it's still not showing up on the Master Server, -Make...

Some older mods* will require you to go to the Discussion tab, and then download the files from the bottom of the post. *"older" as in "made before the download button was added to the site"

You can try. ChatGPT is notorious for making errors, especially in programming. That, coupled with the fact that SRB2 use a really esoteric version of Lua (a fork of BLua), means it probably won't go over well. On the off chance it gives you the program you want, be sure to denote on the release...

How exactly do I use the local skin feature?

Even though there are many servers to pick from, only a few (about 3-6) have a good amount of players in them. If you are unable to connect to the Master Server, check your Internet connection, restart your PC, and try again in a few hours. If all else fails, you may need to reinstall the game.

yeah thats right its me again Upon trying to bind my controller to be used with SRB2Kart, I came across a strange notice. Watch the attached gif and try and see what's wrong: Yes, it's showing that my one (1) attached controller is being used by other players, even though they are very clearly...

Regardless, I'm just sharing how I think it will turn out. I don't mean to complain.

3rd-party Master Servers did exist at one point, and there's really no reason an alternate master server can't be made for those versions. Apparently, there's already a tool out there for creating your own master servers (at least, that's the impression it's giving me); see Snip -- links to...
