(Okay, the colors arent the glitch, that just happened after I printscreened the image from 256 colors, and got rid of the black from it).
Those rings...they are in the wall. You can't get them. So I was wondering if its only possible to get them in the past or future?
I've been wondering this for like..5 minutes now :P.

Thanks?

You got it. There are many rings and other objects in Sonic CD that are in the walls for that exact reason. They didn't get all the objects set up exactly right, and that's the result.

 

[EvilCowSlayer]

For a game so liked among the Sonic community you'd think they'd take the time to check for that.

 

[firemario1001]

No... you can get those in the past.

 

[Shuffle]

I wouldn't call that a glitch, it's always been like that.

Sonic CD... Good Times, good times...




...Except for...

SWEET JESUS! That scares the crap out of me every time!

I hate red X's too. X_x They cause so many problems.

O_____O

Is that some sort of secret in the game? I've only played SonicCD once.

Yes. It's a code that displays the image.

Sonic CD doesn't seem so great when you play it in Gems Collection. They it look like a rush job.

Classic. Looks like you it a rush job!

It's because it was ported, not emulated. The Mega Drive games on Sonic Mega Collection and Game Gear games were emulated; that's why they look pixel perfect. However, SONICTEAM still had problems with emulating Sonic CD, so they had no choice but to actually port it. That's why the movie sequences are altered (with the ending sequence being horribly laggish) and the water in Tidal Tempest Zone is clear instead of green. I'm quite happy with sticking with my PC version.

 

[Bigboi]

Can't you people make up your minds!

"Oh boy! Sonic CD!"
"NO GREEN WATER? THIS IS BULL****!!!"

 

[brianv]

"NO GREEN WATER? THIS IS BULL****!!!"

 

[Omega the Hedgehog]

Seriously. You guys need to stop bitching and just play the game. For that matter, I like the clear water better; It seems more polished.

 

[Ritz]

It isn't 'polished' in the least. Would you call a water block with a missing colormap polished?

 

[Jake]

"NO GREEN WATER? THIS IS BULL****!!!"

Whatever gave you the idea that I was feeling that way. Please, enlighten me; I'd really like to know.

Yes. To be honest that's the reason the only level I've ever made with colormaps in it was HellFire.

Fixed.

Colormap-less water for a water block is acceptable, depending on the texture used. If it's more or less designed to look clear, then so be it. If it's the standard water texture, that's just lame. Regardless, Tidal Tempest loses a lot of personality without the colored water, but even still, it's not a major loss.
