What's up guys? Ever since Sonic X Shadow Generations is coming out soon I have been on a sonic binge to play the previous games to compare the levels in the game to it's predecessors. To be blunt and straightforward. Shadows standalone game does has it flaws so playing with all of these mods does make the game enjoyable and being able to see the games true vision somewhat. The Reloaded mod rebalances the entire game with a bunch of QOL features and changing how the game plays. The Encore Mode mod changes how the game looks visually and gives it some soul. And the 2A character pack is just an optional choice but changing Shadows model is still cool anyway. This is a slightly advanced tutorial than usual so please keep that in mind. It is not just plugging in a simple HD texture pack and calling it a day. In this video we will be doing that but patching our original ISO with the reloaded mod and then extracting the entire ISO and modifying files in the game. I will place timestamps for everything that I do so feel free to back track. There will be certain timestamps to check yourself. I install all of the mods one by one and once I am done I do some checks to make sure that mod alone isolated works then at the end I do one final check to see if all 3 mods are working together. If you have more questions. Feel free to comment down below and I will try to help you or guide you to the proper timestamp to resolve the issue.
