He offered his blood - which ended up being the key to perfect the ultimate lifeform - in exchange for the seven Chaos Emeralds, which he would collect the next time he passed through. An alien civilization that lived upon the Black Comet, which is a celestial object that passed near the planet every fifty years, and its leader Black Doom offered to assist Gerald in his quest. Without alerting anyone, Gerald decided to plea to the stars for help, by contacting the Black Arms race. Going against his worries of stepping into territory man had no business playing with, the professor immediately began his work, by hoping that he could apply any newly-gained knowledge to find a cure to the N.I.D.S.Įven with the resources at his disposal, Professor Gerald was unable to make significant progress. Suffering from the incurable disease known as Neuro-Immune Deficiency Syndrome, Maria only had a short time left to live, and Gerald was willing to do whatever it took to save her life. While Gerald had initial misgivings to the purpose of the research he was assigned to, he realized that his results might be able to save his sweet granddaughter, Maria. Led by Professor Gerald Robotnik, it was a government-sanctioned initiative to create " The Ultimate Lifeform", an immortal being that could be used for the benefit of the whole nation, while most likely in a militaristic fashion. While preferring to work alone, he also has helped Sonic and his allies when needed.įifty years before the events of Sonic Adventure 2, a top secret project known as " Project Shadow" had begun on the Space Colony ARK. Essentially a dark version of Sonic, Shadow can match him in both speed and skill, and can use Chaos Control with a Chaos Emerald. Shadow is just sharp-witted, always on edge, and has a strong sense of purpose willing to accomplish his goals by any means. Eggman to help him conquer the entire world. Fifty years later, Shadow was released by Dr. His purpose was to provide ways to develop cures for incurable deadly illnesses, more specifically for Gerald's granddaughter Maria Robotnik, but he was captured and put into stasis by the military when he was deemed as a threat to all humanity.

#SONIC RIVALS 2 CUTSCENES MOD#
my BEST guess is that it must be the 'all upgrades/add upgrades to characters' mod because the game doesn't think you SHOULD have those upgrades yet, hence why they wouldn't load in the cutscenes? and why it kind of, actually REALLY breaks the game.Shadow the Hedgehog (シャドウ・ザ・ヘッジホッグ) is a fictional male supporting main character from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. so i guess whenever i want to play story mode i HAVE to uninstall the game and then reinstall it to go back to using mods, which is annoying, but i can handle it, i guess. taints the boss fights/story mode, apparently.

i think what's happening is that the mods are affecting the save file somehow so that when it is loaded with mods, it forever. I've decided to keep up this topic in case anyone else needs this help- re-installing the game thankfully doesn't affect game data :>Įdit 3: so uh never. loading into a stage from the stage select menu works fine from what i can tell but doing it from the story mode just? messes it up for some reason?ĮDIT 2: Okay so I just had to re-install the game again and it's all good! I think something must have fuzzed up when i hard-restarted my computer. i tried deleting my save data temporarily and it still crashed when it tried to load me into a stage. Any help? I'd really prefer NOT to delete my save file if at all possibleĮdit: i think it's just crashing in story mode in general. I've tried running it without the mod loader, nothing helps. So weird thing with the game- I think it's crashing during cutscenes in story mode! It froze when I attempted to load up the first boss fight in Hero story, and after I had to hard restart my computer, during any and all cutscenes the game will just.
