Those who are picking it up, enjoy Metroid Prime 4! Hope you guys have as much fun as I did. Also, make sure to grab green crystals from chests in the shrines and various other places around the world - you don't need to just drive through them in the desert (that method is way slower)

Some mixed reviews out there but for me it’s a 5/5 and my second favorite Prime game. Absolutely loved everything about it - well, almost everything. Also the best HDR I’ve seen in a long time.

This week, I made a bunch of progress on XNOEdit, my cross-platform editor/viewer for Sonic '06 objects powered by .NET and WGPU.

Still lots to do, but many objects now correctly visualise, including textures! Next up, bringing in original recompiled shaders so everything looks perfect.

I thought it'd be fun to outline (literally) how much of a hack the custom UI in the recomp is. Anything surrounded by an outline is drawn using Dear ImGui and isn't rendered by the game.

Been a bit since I've done a weekly update, so here's what we're up to! Lots of stuff is in the works:

- Achievement support (Hyper)
- Physics-based high FPS fixes and APIs for character controllers (Rei)
- MSAA & resize support (Rei & I)
- External cross-platform XNO editor (Me)

Stay tuned!

Fun '06 fact: the button window text is always rendered twice, but is covered up by the main menu panels, so you don't see the duplicate at the top left.

Quick update on this, I made the borders mirrored and added a faded letterbox when narrower than 4:3 instead, so it doesn't look as horrific as it used to.

This week we got the infinite lives patch in!

Hyper is still hard at work on the options UI, so stay tuned for when that makes it in.
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 :)

This is such a sad and difficult situation. Wanted to share and raise awareness.
Hey friends. After having open heart surgery in Dec and another procedure in July, I've been left in 10k+ debt while recovering. During this, we were also laid off from Skullgirls. To try to help dig myself out, I have begun listing things on eBay: ebay.com/usr/mshinzan

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).
