Just in case anyone following this thread missed it, some info about 2.3 was posted on the home page earlier this year: https://www.srb2.org/2026/01/happy-new-year/

I have now died several dozen times in the act. Any tips or strategies on how to beat it? I've already figured out a few of the obvious things like ; but I'm still struggling to clear even one of the main sections. Is there any chance this act could be made at least a little less aburdly...

I like the new Forest Fortress path is neat conceptually. I appreciate that it feels aesthetically distinct (and thus memorable) within the act. I think the level design is perhaps a bit too sparse, though. There seems to be only one "solution" to room of the new path, in a manner that reminds...

Found a softlock in the elevator of Egg Base. Might be a good place to put a secret passage; perhaps when the elevator reaches the top, there can be a tunnel through this wall to somewhere else?

The OpenGL renderer already supports palette rendering in 2.2.14+, and that had been my main reason for using the Software renderer in prior versions. What exactly is still missing from the OpenGL renderer?

This is happening to me, too. I made sure to test without any other addon loaded. I even tested both Sonic and Sonic+Tails. But no matter whether I tap, hold, or spam the Spin button, nothing happens with the mid-spin variants of the mod. I'm running 2.2.13 on Linux, albeit self-compiled rather...

The title of this thread literally says "NO SPOILERS PLEASE"

I can definitely understand why some (maybe even a lot of) people will end up not liking Ring Racers or prefer SRB2Kart. If you were expecting Ring Racers to be an upgrade of SRB2Kart, then yeah, RR is not that at all. In some aspects, it seems to have gone in the opposite direction of SRB2Kart...

It's worth noting that the speed at which a twister launches you is based on how much speed you had when you entered it. So you may want to build up a running start if you intend to travel a longer distance. You can also try fully charging a spin dash into one. Remember that running down a...

Found a missing texture in Blue Mountain Zone. (Nice level, by the way.)

Yeah, my post got held for moderator review due to all the links and didn't get approved until you'd already found it, lol.

Here's all the existing resources I know of for SRB2 history: The main website: https://www.srb2.org/ The news/blog posts here go back to 2001 if you know where to look (https://www.srb2.org/archives.htm), though most of the activity is around the 2.1 - 2.2 development era. Make sure to click...

Looks like the gravity gets flipped at some point in this room: Also, here's the most recent Egg Rock teaser that I'm aware of: 9sphere posted 2 GIFs on June 29, 2023, showcasing a (currently buggy and half-finished) revamp of the crusher room in Act 1...

I'm guessing the Egg Rock room in that screenshot is the replacement for the central shaft in Act 2, and I'm guessing there's probably some kind of turrets/enemies in the central column, which the purple things serve to limit the sight/range of. Here's the full GIF from the devetopment (sic)...

Found another upload on YouTube that reveals (presumably) the actual soundfont name: Arachno. I downloaded that soundfont (from https://archive.org/download/free-soundfonts-sf2-2019-04) and tried it out myself via the FluidSynth audio codec in VLC Media Player. It sounds closest to the one in...
