You will need to provide your own clean rip of the Shadow ENG NTSC ROM to run with the emulator.

The only files provided on GitHub are the configuration files needed to apply the settings and changes to run Shadow SX.

You can use the Shadow SX Launcher to create new 1.1 ROMs or patch the file yourself with the provided .xdelta files and a xdelta3 patcher of your choice, for example: https://shadowthehedgehoghacking.github.io/xdelta-wasm/

Please use latest Dolphin release - DO NOT USE Dolphin 5.0 Stable (commonly used for Sonic Heroes Speedruns) - There are known issues that will prevent the ROM from working correctly.

The following has changed since the 1.0 release:

  • New Shadow SX Launcher now with support for Windows and Linux!
    • Sorry Mac, no support for now.
  • Widescreen support courtesy of the Widescreen-ShadowTH Project.
  • Fix for various bugged messages due to use of custom messaging.
  • Fix for updating the A Rank Counter on the Select Mode Screen post Expert Mode Unlock.
  • Bug fix for the Mission Timer (Space Gadget Hero and others like it).
    • It will now stay in sync with the timer and reset if you restart in a story run. (Result score is still based on the timer with deaths and restart, but you wont be locked out of a mission anymore).
  • Updates to the custom game models to better match original file sizes.
  • Vastly improved options in the Intro Screen.
    • Disable saving of special weapons and keys for ILs and runs that care about their unlock status.
    • Quick Unlocks for Last Story, Expert Mode, and Select Mode Stages.
    • Unlock or Remove all Keys.
    • Adjust unlock levels for Special Weapons.
  • Updates to Timer behavior in Bosses (Meant to keep the In Game Timer closer to the Time without Loads intention).
    • Penalties will be applied to the timer when watching a cutscene more than once. (Story Mode Only).
    • Egg Dealer will no longer pause the timer during attacks.
  • Adds "Practice Mode" when holding Z while entering a stage
    • Adds several commands for easier practice and learning.
      • Z+L = Fill Dark Meter.
      • Z+R = Fill Right Meter.
      • Z+L+R = Clear Both Meters.
      • Z + Dpad Up = Toggle Score as Meter Values.
      • Z + Dpad Down = Switch Timer State (Normal, Pause, Reset to Zero).
    • Restarts instead of ending a mission for faster practice.
    • Key appear for each level start.
  • Adds a built in Turbo for the A and B buttons (approximately 10hz, based on my own abilities).
    • Hold L+B to Turbo B, Hold Z+A for Turbo A.
    • Works as intended on Wii or Dolphin CPU Overclock.

Check out the README included in the Launcher Downloads for more tips and considerations when playing Shadow SX.

This release pretty much has everything I wanted for this project since its initial plan, so I don't suspect there will be another update unless a bug needs patching or there's something new I want to add.
