- Fully moddable Act Select and Pause Menu
- And of course, lots of smaller improvements and bug fixes
Sonic 3 A.I.R. just got a new preview update for all the primary platforms - Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and Web/iOS.
github.com/Eukaryot/son...
Compared to the last stable release (v24.02.02.1), this is mostly about new technical features for modders and everyone interested in using mods.
There were attempts for a 3DS port by other devs, but as far as I'm aware, none got completed.
And no, I'm not planning to engage in any more ports, but anyone with expertise in porting can give it a try - Sonic 3 A.I.R. is open source after all.
If you don't mind, you could send me the project you're testing with (via DM), so I can have a closer look at what's happening.
Also, which version of OxygenApp are you using? I guess it's the one shipped with latest S3AIR stable version (v24.02.02.1)?
If you can upload the crashdump.dmp file somewhere, I can have a look into it.

Yes, this is known and actually a major reason why there was no Android test build 😋
But I'm working on it already, and hope to fix it soon.
No changes there - the S3AIR Android versions have always been built for both 32-bit and 64-bit devices. In fact, practically all Android devices are 64-bit nowadays, so it would bequite ridiculous to not support them.
Maybe that person meant something different instead?
The test build is out now as well, you can find it on Github:
github.com/Eukaryot/son...
Note that is is mostly for players who want to have a first look at upcoming features.
Including a bunch of new development utilities for modders (accessible if you enable dev mode in config.json).
Enjoy!
If you're using a Windows test build instead, a new version of that is in preparation already as well.

There has been a security issue with Sonic 3 A.I.R., when development mode is active.
If you're on Windows, Mac, Linux and Android, please update to this fixed version of the latest stable build v24.02.02.1:

(iOS/Web is not affected, so there's no update needed there)
