Sonic before and after the Sequel Retropie Ports

Robotechvfx

@capeman I knew that the game ran on the Sonic Worlds engine, but I didn't know that it the engine ran on top of a retail software (Clickteam Multimedia Fusion 2.5 freamework).
Thank you for your research.
Man I'm really sad.

There's also ATS DX and that's open source as well.

It looks like the source is some sort of Flash/ActionScript (?) and you need Multimedia Fusion to 'compile' them. As far as I see, there's no Linux version of said program, so porting them over for RetroPie is not possible at the moment.

Sorry to bring this up, but the sonicretro side contains romhacks with actual patched roms.

What about ExaGear? There's the possibility of running some windows x86 games on raspberry with that software.

ExaGear is a virtualization app that's able to run x86 apps on ARM devices. It offers installation methods for each app, and it's compatible with a lot of less-demanding games, such as Diablo 2, Fallout, Counter-Strike 1.6, etc. However, the app isn't free, and you have to pay a licence in order to use it.

There's the remote possibility of this app being able to run those Sonic games.

@Solid-One I think their RPI package was discontinued at the beginning of the year or so.

Where are they?

@Awesomegamer656 In the Hacks section. In example if you go to the page of Sonic - Hyper X, then you can download a romhack of Sonic 1.
