Does it look like I'm kidding? :P
But I don't know what one I should use.
I'll go take a look at it and I'll PM you what I think.
The effort put into this wad really shows! Forest Fort Zone's theme was refreshingly different, although a couple of pop-up turrets were very cheap (getting shot in the face after jumping off a blue spring).
Beating Final Zone was so worth it for what I got right after!
The first one looks amazing, but it's not that much bigger than normal Robotnik/Eggman (this isn't really a bad thing, you could use it as a seperate boss if you decide to use the second one). The second fits in SRB2's style nicely (the current style, anyway), something feels really off with the head, though. You could have some collision issues with the large size as well.
It's your call.

Ok, I have now gotten over my sickness mostly so progress will start to go faster. anyways, like I said before I have new sprites for the final boss done.
http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Knockout/Stuff/srb2kotefinalboss.png
And I have a small level I need tested, It is a idea for the a special stage in the MOD. It is themed off the ones from Sonic 3D blast and Sonic 2.
Anyways I have a download link for it, it is the first special stage for this release but int the MOD it will be the second.

Wow....That was cool!
I just finished testing it is good but, it is way too hard for a first special stage. I would suggest toning it down a bit or place it as a 3rd or 5th special stage. I loved the loop! Oh,change the music to something more like Sonic 3d blast. If you need the music here! *http://www.vgmusic.com/music/console/sega/genesis/index-sz.html*. Good luck with your wad !

Also tested
The special stage was pretty cool but it kinda lacked flow as I almost never hit forward through the whole thing.
(and I was still pretty close to the exit then.)
I would recommend Making the level longer or generally making rings easier to collect at top speed.
(Possibly by spreading them out as if you were just stretching the whole level.)

Pretty hard... If it was not for thokking against the flow I STILL be trying to beat it. (*facepalm* I should try strafing!)
srb2kirbyo said:
Yes, use straffing it is pretty much the ONLY safe way of beating it.

The current one may not be in the MOD but ot would be used as a base for the others. if it ain't the second Special Stage.
GREG THE CAT said:
It's a bit harder the the normal ones because you are always moving forwards. and if you try to move left and right without straffing you have pretty much sealed you own death wish. I gusse I should have cleared this up when I released it, sorry <<'

I enjoyed the format of this special stage. It was a very unique stage, this one stood out from the others.
My problems with the special stage is with the excessive hazards on both sides of the track. I remember in Sonic 3D blast that in the special stages you could not fall of the edges of them.
I suggest replacing them with a slow-down area, or just narrowing the edges all together. My other problem is with the rings, while well placed they looked like there was just enough rings to pass by.
My suggestion for this problem is to add a few more rings, or just to loop the track with a tele-port.

If he decided to loop the Special Stage, then it would really defeat the point of making the emerald challenge the way that he did. To be honest, It reminded me more of Knuckles Chaotix. I liked the concept, though; Perhaps you could remedy the problem by removing some of the hazard water, and adding a few spikeballs here and there, and prevent sonic players from thokking backward to recover missed rings-I`m not sure how you could accomplish that, however.
Also, <333 @ level pack. :D

If he wanted to prevent the players from going back to the missed rings he could use a line-def executor. My idea is that he should split the special stage up into 20-22 sections. What I mean is if you moved from the sector area 1 to sector area 2, sector area 2 would start a line-def executor that would lower the ceiling height of sector area 1 to make it inaccessible. When you go to sector area 3 the same thing would happen to sector area 2 that happened to 1. That would take some time to implement in the special stages, but it would work.

Okay, I just tried out your special stage.
Eaugh... Too hard. Why make a special stage focused on strafing? Blech.
Everything's been good, but the special stages.... Way too hard.

Re: Status Report
You ARE still gonna make new special stages right ?
I mean you could make a stage where the goal is to get to the end in time with the emerald at the end.

D_MAP03M. You didn't even ask. But I'll let you use it anyway. It's a compliment that you would choose it.
