The best bet is using Axel with Max or Zan as your partner. Adam was well made, but he’s trash. Max and Zan can dish out some decent damage. Also, turn off player damage. It will make loads of difference. There are still too many glitches that will result with you losing an entire life. Nonetheless, it turned out okay for a prototype.
Good stuff.
The AI player is junk, but the game is good. The music kicks ass. I wish Axel’s Grand Upper was the SO2 version, but the one here is decent. I got all the way to stage 8 and got killed by one of those boxers.
They’ll be releasing a patch very soon that addresses all the problems already mentioned and more.
Seems as if the website is down. Is there any other link?
If you guys have any suggestions, go ahead and register with the forum. They’re always open to suggestions and ideas SOR fans might have. Hell, I mentioned the idea of a diagonal run similar to Sengoku 3 and they put it in the latest version.
Brutal: I have a copy of the game on my work computer. If you want I can transfer it to you through AIM. My screenname in striderec.
I’m gonna register, but the site is down right now. I love projects like these…I plan to make one myself, because no one else apparently wants to do it: River City Ransom.
People generally say Zan sucks, but he only sucks if you’re retarded. When you get him to 3 stars in SOR3, his dash attack is fast and without lag. And he isn’t your typical slow big. He’s the perfect combination of speed, power, and reach. I would say he’s the best complete character in that game. Shiva would’ve had that title if they included his complete move set.
In SORR, he can now use weapons and a bit more efficiently than the other characters. That light ball move was added as a running special which is good for clearing out clusters of enemies from far away.
Max is okay. Having a run really helps, but it’s harder to land his back breaker because crossing up for him is almost impossible (hit box issues). I’ve seen SOR2 vids of him where he was able to do that.
It looks like they uploaded the corrected version so whatever bugs were mentioned were probably cleaned up. The site is running slow so I would wait a while to try and download it.

A new patch is in the works already.
Someone at the forums has the entire soundtrack available for download. I suggest you all get them.
Yea, the soundtrack is a piece of work.
Thanks for the offer of file transfer via AIM Satomiblood. I haven’t been around to do it but now you have posted the link for fullgame with patch as well so thanks. :tup:
unlocked super shiva. must say he’s pretty awesome.
Game crashed for me on stage 6. The molten factory from SOR1. I’ll give it another go but any suggestions in the meantime would be appreciated.
Make sure you have the 4.01 patch. You can also report the crash at the forum.
Apparently, the game conflicts with explorer.exe. Go to your Task List and end explorer.exe, which will close your menu and desktop icons, then go to New Task and run the game from there. As soon as the game ends, save your progress by hitting ESC all the way through the title screen. It’s a retarded way of saving, but whatever.
There’s a 4.1a patch available as well. Same link as before.
I have the 4.01 patch so will report it at the forums. Thanks.
I’ll try this when I get a chance. Thanks for all your help on this.
