Sonic Colors

Sonic Colors (ソニック カラーズ Sonikku Karāzu in Japan, Sonic Colours in European and Australian markets) is a 2010 platforming game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. The game has similar gameplay to the 2008 game Sonic Unleashed, using both side-scrolling and third-person perspectives.

Excessively Dark Rendering
When playing the PAL version in 50Hz mode, the game is significantly darker than in 60Hz modes. This occurs on console and is not an issue with Dolphin. To avoid this, use PAL60 mode when playing the PAL version of the game.

Problems
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|

Missing Audio
Certain music effects, such as muffled and quieter music in underwater sections and muted music while going though pipes with the Drill wisp, are missing under DSP-HLE. The effects don't play in HLE. Boosting music plays properly though. All music effects work properly under DSP-LLE. Refer. Fixed with.

Arbitrary Mipmap Detection Distorts Textures and Models at any Resolution
Arbitrary Mipmap Detection heavily distorts the look of textures and models especially noticeable in areas like Asteroid Coaster. Disable it to make the game look much sharper.

Bloom Effects
The game uses bloom effects that are not displayed correctly if playing at higher than native resolution. Enable 'Native Resolution Bloom' in the graphics mods section of the game config to render bloom correctly. }}}}

Anti-aliasing Lines
Noticeable lines appear under Sonic and stay for the whole game. Disabling anti-aliasing fixes this.

Linear 16:9 support
This code straightens the 16:9 view to be expanded for monitor display, although widescreen is natively supported.

Open Matte mode
Only when 4:3 is set in the Wii Options, this code makes the view appear open matte. For a better result, enable the straight 16:9 code above.

60FPS
Enter this as an AR code in the game's configuration settings. This patch will unlock the game's frame rate from 30FPS on actual hardware to 60FPS. It can cause some minor physics issues (nevertheless, the game can still easily be completed). Reaching frame rates >30 FPS may require checking Store EFB Copies To Texture Only and/or increase the Emulated CPU Clock.

Known problems

 * This code will make completing Asteroid Coaster Act 2 difficult at the point shown below. Using Boost should allow getting past.


 * Aquarium Park, Act 1: The scripted loop at the beginning of the level bugs out, sometimes sending Sonic out of the stage to his death. To fix this, simply don't touch the controls at the start of the level. Sonic will get stuck in the loop, but then he'll get unstuck and continue through the loop. You can also disable the 60FPS patch for that particular section. Save states can be used even when the patch is enabled/disabled.


 * Tropical Resort, Act 1: If you jump at the right spot, the game will freeze.


 * Boosting in between a set of springs will cause Sonic to get stuck infinitely bouncing on the springs and cause the level to softlock at which point the level must be restarted. This is easiest to do in the first set of springs in Tropical Resort Act 1 but can be done in any area.


 * Terminal Velocity, Boss: After executing a chain of attacks on boss, Sonic will not always be able to boost into it for extra damage. Sonic will seldom be able to boost into it and is very inconsistent when it will work. You may disable the 60FPS patch for this particular stage. Boosting for extra damage is not required to beat that boss, but is needed if the player wishes to obtain an S rank.
