Wait a minute-

More than I thought, and less than I thought. They haven't covered the crashing problems yet.

So, the thing with story mode erasing your progress at some point has not been fixed yet, I take it?

Just tested the new update. The following Sonic Mania codes now works in 3K's soundtest:

4126 - Unlock all emeralds: (this may have worked before the latest patch - can't remember).

6214 - Disable Super Sonic music.

19790811 - All enemies turn into squirrels when defeated.

19921124 - Infinite continues (works in Classic Mode).

20170815 - Fly while Super Sonic (Egg Reverie Movement).

 

"Max Control" 9001 (Drop-Dash, Super Peel Out, Insta-shield) doesn't work.

"Play in Encore mode" 20180623 also doesn't work.

EDIT 1: 

19930923 Unlocks Super Peel-Out.

EDIT 2:
*47981 turns all item-boxes into question mark item-boxes so what you get is random.
*19910623 changes flame, bubble & lightning item boxes into Sonic 2 shields.

[DaBigJ]

The banana code is also in 3K

 

[TheOcelot]

Yep.

Also; 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00 removes all rings, item boxes and special stage rings from each zone. BRUTAL!

EDIT:
19940202 changes title screen to just "Sonic The Hedgehog 3". Removes "&Knuckles". Also changes zone title card to just Sonic 3.

19990306 turns all badniks into the Penguin badnik from Ice Cap.

32160 gives Sonic drop dash & insta-shield in Competition mode. Also allows Knuckles to glide in competition mode. You aget the normal 1 player mode physics in Competition mode.

Cool, it’ll gladly take the Tails bugging out glitched removed along with the cheats. A new reason to go back and give this a another go.

Incidentally, I also found my first proper sort of bug - I’m fairly sure others have come across this as well as… And not to much surprise it’s in Sonic Team’s Mission mode. 

Sonic 3 Mission: Fireball Dash - I think I just have escaped the field of play they tried to keep me in with the grey boxes as I got past them (quite easily actually - the wall simply wasn’t high enough haha).

I then proceeded to just finish Mushroom Hil Act 1 as per usual (boss and all) - the game recognised that I completed the level (instead of a mission) then it glitched and threw me into IceCap with only the background loaded in and nothing else. 

As I couldn’t do anything i restarted the mission… it loaded all the assets back in …but I was still in ice cap! And from the looks of it it was the Knuckles Climbing Challenge Mission… so as Sonic it was impossible to get it if the pit. Amazing work Sonic Team  

Maybe patch your obtrusive wall a little bit higher in another update.

It does not seem like the one where you lose all progress after getting a Super Emerald in Sonic 3 and Knuckles in story mode is fixed, unless I am missing something?

[Dreadknux]

PSA: This topic is now exclusively for the general discussion of Sonic Origins.

Any new information or announcements surrounding this game (new patches, substantial comments from developers etc) need to be made in a new, separate topic.

[The-Aman20]

Dude, I was looking forward to Origins but it really wasn't anything special. I just wish they decompressed the Sonic 3 music and fixed the dropdash, that'd be the bare minimum

[Legendary Emerald]

Y’know, I didn’t expect most of the bugs in this collection to be fixed, but even I’m a bit surprised that there wasn’t even another attempt to patch anything up after the August 5th update. This game is permanently marred by all the drop-dash related glitches, then, not to mention the save-erasing bug in Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Really pathetic release all around.

[Jango]

Still waiting for a 80% off to get it.

[LegoFedora]

Considering that suspiciously specific survey from the game event, what are the odds the lack of patches is a result of them wanting to push out a big one alongside the new characters/games dlc?

One can only hope. 

Although I've no real grudges against the present version at the moment (except for that steeeeep asking price). But the positive additions made into this compilation release still severely outweighs any negatives IMO, making this the best way to play it officially based on my personal playthroughs.  

That's not to say others players didn't stumble into issues though, that does suck, so I would hope another patch is eventually on the cards to iron out the rest of the creases.

If the results of the survey weren’t thrown straight in the trash, the takeaway was probably something like “Ah, shit, that’s way too much to fix. Fuck it; just focus on Sonic Frontiers instead.”

Patching the game after this much time has passed wouldn’t be completely out of the question for most companies, but this is SEGA we are talking about. Sonic Colors HD is still an ugly mess, even after the two(?) patches it got. Sega flat out doesn’t care about fixing broken products, as proven time and time and time and time again.

 

[Whatever the WhoCares]

Has there been an update to remove that awful bilinear filtering that the game launched with?

Nope. Game hasn’t been patched since August 5th, so the chances of it ever getting patched again are pretty much nil.

Is there at least a mod or something to get rid of it?
