Not 100% yet, but Metal is getting there! Still need to work out some push constant and barrier nonsense.

We're working on fixing high FPS bugs; it'll be playable at those frame rates at release.

Not ready yet, the font atlas isn't baked, so if you don't have the fonts locally, ImGui will explode.

This week we got more progress from @hyperbx.bsky.social on the options menu! All of this is implemented outside the game's UI engine in ImGui :)

Sometimes the better shaders look fantastic; it definitely has a lot of potential if I can get it working properly.

For those interested in a deeper dive into Sonic 06's visuals, I've written a blog post on the main techniques used (and their many limitations).

There was a bug in our conditional survey implementation in D3D12; it should be resolved now. May have been your issue :)

I'd need logs to say for sure what's going wrong.

Time to take a break from the race track for an update :)

This week, we got two restorations, chain jumps flips, and Sonic's action gauge!

If infinite hops aren't your thing and you want something more like Sonic Team intended, Sonic's gems will now (optionally) consume the action gauge.

The entire game is already playable at retail frame rate, what’s left is high frame rate fixes, options menu, MSAA, and a whole lot of testing.

It's always on, just change shadow resolution in your config file

Isaac @isaacmarovitz.com · 25d

This week, we've fixed several more high FPS issues, including particles, UI animations, and bullet collision, improvements for the debug camera, and added patches for rendering Shadow's shadow-Mephiles in crispy high res!

Marathon Recompiled running Mephiles Phase 1, showing high resolution Mephiles "shadow" rendering.

Here it is! The most anticipated patch yet...

Ultrawide support in the UI, along with several restoration patches and high frame-rate fixes.

This took a lot of work, so make sure to give your thanks to @hyperbx.bsky.social
