Sadly there’s not much I can really do right now…

The re-enabling of mod support took away the things you could buy in this mod and I can't buy the items back because the Emblems are acting like they've already been collected and thus aren't respawning. Plz help!

This is a pretty damn good mod props to you for taking the time and effort porting most of SA to hat in time

I can't play this mod. It says error loading the intro, and that the mod creator has to recompile whatever the hell.

Big the Cat is fake... he was only an illusion.

I liked the mod. But It's missing something that made Sonic Adventure, the game it is. Where is the fishing minigame?

One last major issue I have is the memes shoved into everywhere, the mod is supposed to give off a professional vibe of a port mod something like say Mario Galaxy levels in Mario odyssey, however the sheer number of memes everywhere just waters down a lot of the actual quality in levels, in just about every level there's a meme that's shoved into the players face. Parts that can't be skipped for those tho couldn't really care. I know I myself often found myself skipping through text because I lost interest in the 'story' due to just how many memes there were in it.
Now for the pros: The levels certainly are ported, some neat mechanics are used here and there like the shield and a few of the levels have neat gimmicks. The kismet boss is nice even if not fully accurate to the original. and effort did go into this mod.

Overall this port could have used a lot more polish into materials, lighting, and merging it with how hat plays.

vehicles also feel the same way they all feel like scooter reskins and have little to no use, in levels like Ice cap the snow board serves no purpose due to how you removed the avalanche section and there's no threat, the alps mountains in the level make it look weird and the lighting in the first half gives everything an over saturated tone to it. The Snowboard controls almost the exact same to the kart on the race track and it doesn't feel interesting. Another HUGE issue with this mod is the lighting, lighting and shadows pop in and out all over the place and have little to no effort put in to fix it, areas like the main hub worlds have a gross brightness to them as compared to hatkid. Some hat things in the world light wise like the For actors also felt very unfitting in some areas, making them too bight or too dark, and just not appealing to look at overall.

Similarly speed in this mod doesn't control properly, when the player is supposed to go fast they are often inclined to use the sprint hat, however you have them straight up given a status effect to make them faster, the sprint hat overrides this status effect and makes the player slower than intended rather than adding on. this can often lead to a cheap death due to it being 'slower' than intended

Several materials were also very clear that they were one sided being visible through the seams in meshes where nothing had been done to hide how the meshes were put together. Stages like the beta windy valley were also using a worse version of the model compared to the one that had had effort put in to make sure it was fully playable as originally intended. The levels likewise also felt very bland with nothing 'new' to spice it up, no real sonic enemies and a lot of what made it 'sonic' had been removed, things like checkpoints had been minimalized and the playerstarts hadn't been facing the correct direction

Random meshes in levels feel jarring because they were so out of place compared to the original SA stages, The materials contrasted with hats base materials all looked like a texture plugged into a diffuse with no extra work involved, the levels either felt too big or too small for hat kid and a lot of the levels you could tell were not made for hat kids proportions and made minimal efforts to fix these issues,

Having played the expansion and the original mod I wanted to give my thoughts and opinions on the mod, I have a decent chunk of issues persisting across both mods,
A majority of the meshes used are flat shaded and not smooth shaded, they make it very clear that all the faces are there and that they were ripped from another game, this leads into another issue I have, The materials don't look right in the slightest alongside asset placement.

I just finished Sonic DX Director's Cut on Gamecube a few weeks ago :P
A meh game in my opinion but I might be interested in trying this level... maybe.
