[Release] Sonic-Mania-Decompilation Vita Port By SonicMastr500

[sombrerosonic]

How old is it? My pentium 4 m laptop is stuck on windows 7, but it's also ~20 years old and there is some issue with the gpu that causes the display to have random noise.

Pentium 4 as well, my laptop is around 12 years old but I also have a 20 years old computer stuck on win xp.

Pentium 4s? I have several 2 desktops and 1 laptop(98 gaming laptop)...... recommend you looking around recycling plants for a old i3 or i5 or Core 2 then try to see if some of your old parts can be transfered over to it (Best to see if you can find a Sata hard disk as well if the old one dosnt work)...... or at the very least look for more ram for your PC

You are correct it’s intel core i3 I mistook it with a PC I got around 2007 which broke around 2011 and I never fixed it, funny how the older computer lasted longer.

I have bought dell laptops now for over 20 years, I worked for a dell var (value added reseller) and I've always found their next day warranty and accidental damage to be very valuable.

However they have had some real lemon's & it's really difficult to predict. They weren't all great in the past and are rubbish now, it's basically random.

That i3 ought to run windows 10 fine.

Version 1.0.2 released.

Now the scavenger hunt begins for me for a vpk which supports dlc, since I can't compile it myself, so far no luck.

I'm on the same boat my fellow friend.

But as the VPK already contains all the assets, its non shareable here. I've got my facts wrong, the assets (Data.rsdk) must be on its own folder (haven't found the most recent VPK just yet).

We can find the already compiled VPK -non Plus- (and required config files -no Data.rsdk file-) on GitHub, for the most recent 1.0.2 version, as of September 17th, 2022.

If we want the Plus version we must compile it ourselves.

Copy/Pasted from the Wii U thread...

I just tested Amy Rose mod on both Wii U and PS Vita, it sort of works but it loads Mighty’s color palette instead along with his move set, 3D model in Special Stages and Bonus Stages has the correct colors though as well as Blue Sphere sprites, I wonder if I need a newer version of this mod as mine’s dated to 2020.

Any luck on this? I'm also on the look out

I contacted the guy who made the mod and long story short they told me an update should be coming tomorrow that supports the decompilation, project Amy Mania lives.

Oh god that reminds me of a mod that makes her fat for Sonic 3 a.i.r

you can find the vpk on github, but do know that it won't have dlc. you have to compile it yourself to get dlc.

don't caremuch for DLC, i played mania without DLC back in the day i'm good without it. So VPK is all i need? cool!

you need the suprx in the data in a subfolder of the data folder as well as the data.rsdk. I forgot the name of the folder, but I think it's just mania. game won't work without those two things.

From the github link https://github.com/SonicMastr/Sonic-Mania-Vita/releases/tag/1.0.2 you need to download the SonicMania.vpk and Game.suprx files...

The SonicMania.vpk file is only for installation with vitashell, then you can delete it if you want, the Game.suprx file goes to [ux0:data/Mania] along with Data.rsdk which you need to rip from the PC version.

I seem to be stuck in the splash screen for some reason, any clues?

i got this error

This is odd, I remember version 1.0.0 would take a while to load getting stuck on the splash screen but this was fixed in version 1.0.1 but the error message is odd, the game does crash on occasions but not as often as Sonic CD fr example, did you try again maybe you got unlucky?

 

[godreborn]

That's a general crash error, which doesn't tell you much. There's an app that will read the crash report. I don't remember the name of it though.

 

[placebo_yue]

I used a different data file and it's working now, thanks.
I tried to download a "sonic 1/cd palette" mod but it crashed. Is this compatible with any mods besides the ones provided in the github about widescreen and whatnot? I really wanna change sonic's palette, he's too bright and greenish it always bugged me on Mania.
Besides that the game runs incredibly well! even the special stages are sorta playable!

Got the palette mod working too, i'm all set i think! Any other QOL mods and fixes i should apply?

It should be compatible with every mod that doesn’t use .dll files, I actually use a Amy mod which does require .dll files and aside from loading inaccurate color pallet and not loading her unique move set, the mod overall runs decently all things considered.

 

[sonictopfan]

Bug report, it’s been happening semi-constantly now but I start Sonic Mania, turn on a mod, play for a little bit and when I’m done I disable the mod again, close the game, turn off the PS Vita, then the next time I turn it on again and fire up Sonic Mania it gives an error upon start and won’t work until I re-install the vpk file.

Idk if it’s related but I had ReVita installed recently playing Streets of Rage Remake, I uninstalled it now because I’m done with the game for now and ReVita was causing some inconveniences.
