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.

Emulation Information
Shut Down
This game's online functionality has been shut down as of May 20, 2014 and works in neither Dolphin or on Wii hardware.
Controller Map Overlap
Sonic Colors is capable of using both GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes. If a physical controller is set to emulate both a GameCube Controller and a Wii Remote concurrently, it will operate both devices at the same time. To fix, migrate controls to use separate physical controllers.
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
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. Fluffland mac os. Boosting music plays properly though. All music effects work properly under DSP-LLE. Refer issue 10069.
Enhancements
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). Jop mac os. Reaching frame rates >30 FPS may require checking Store EFB Copies To Texture Only and/or increase the Emulated CPU Clock.
This code will make completing Asteroid Coaster Act 2 difficult at the point shown below. Using Boost should allow getting past.
Known problems
- 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.
- Every level: Noticeable lines appear under Sonic and stay for the whole game. Disabling anti-aliasing fixes this.
- Tropical Resort, Act 1: If you jump at the right spot, the game will freeze.
- 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.

r7719 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i5-2500K @ 3.3GHz | AMD Radeon HD 6950 | Perfect. 30FPS in DX11 with AA Samples 4 (quality 16), AF x16, and Internal Resolution x4 (2560x2112), at 1920x1080. | |
3.0-363 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i5-750 | AMD Radeon HD 6950 | 30FPS in DX9 (AF16x, AA 9XSSAA) , random slowdowns but average is 30FPS,Lock threads to core and OpenMP. | MinorOS |
3.0-421 | Windows 7 | AMD Phenom II X4 @ 3.825GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti | FPS varies between 20-30FPS, no matter what settings or plugin I use. 'Skip EFB Access from CPU' seems to help. Guess I need a better processor. The game plays perfectly however. | AgainstYourThought |
3.0-458 | Mac OS X 10.7.4 | Intel Core i7 @ 2.6GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M | Almost rock solid 30FPS, perfect on almost all menus, so much better than I could have dreamed for. For some reason, the only place that lags in the game is.. map screen for Tropical Resort. For some reason there the emulator thinks it's running at full speed. Also for some reason loading times are drastically improved compared to the actual console experience. The boost effect glitch occurs if I use fullscreen. UPDATE: I replaced my computer with an identical model (older model developed issues).. and it does NOT work nearly as well as above. Very choppy and at times laggy. Odd and worrying to say the least. | Ac |
3.0-715 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7-950 @ 4GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 | Rock solid 30FPS. It never drops at all and no glitches or anything. DX9, 4x Native, 16x AF, 0x AA, Skip EFB from CPU, Texture EFB Copy, Fast Texture Cache, OpenCL, OpenMP. Turning on AA destroys the performance. | Zharay |
3.0-776 | Windows 7 | AMD Athlon II X4 645 @ 3.1GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti | DirectX9: Works bad and slow. (15FPS) DirectX11: Some graphical glitches, often lags. (20-30FPS), OpenGL: Works great and mostly fast, sometimes little lags (25-30FPS)(1920x1080) | SlaSh (L.V.) |
3.0-787 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i5-2430m @ 2.4GHz | Intel HD Graphics 3000 | Playable at 19-25FPS, no HUD, and slow gameplay. | Ace12182 |
3.5 | Windows 7 | AMD FX-6350 @ 3.9GHz | AMD Radeon HD 7770 | Completely playable. Slight to moderate slowdown in some areas. 25-30FPS. OpenGL, 2x Native, HLE Audio. | Randompc1 |
3.5-367 | Windows 7 | AMD Phenom II x6 1090T @ 4.5GHz | ATI Radeon HD 5850 | Perfect, 60/29-30FPS, DX11, 1920x1080, Scaled EFB copy, pixel lighting, 16x AF, OpenMP texture decoder. Only one of the cutscenes had minor sound issues. | ekp |
3.5-607 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7-2630QM @ 2.9GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560m | Seems to lag with all graphics cores and settings. I can only get around 60-70% speed (and 21-25FPS). performance is even worse with LLE. Very odd indeed, seeing as other people have it working near perfect, at least on older dolphin releases. | Vgf89 |
4.0 | Windows 8.1 | Intel Core i3-4130 @ 3.4GHz | Intel HD Graphics 4400 | Playable, 30FPS in-game and stage select, 60FPS in others menu. The game HUD does not appear without Custom projection hack marked zNear (Nothing typed in the box) MMU unmarked. 1x native resolution. Texture EFB copy. DirectX 9. | Narvy |
4.0-135 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i7 @ 2.6GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M | Runs well at solid 30FPS at 1440x900 with no glitches. For the most part, it can handle the 60FPS patch, but certain sections lag badly and Asteroid Coaster suffers from the FIFO overflow bug described above. | Ac |
4.0-1546 | Windows 7 | AMD FX-4130 @ 3.8GHz | AMD Radeon HD 7850 | Near perfect. 30FPS (no EFB, 30FPS framelimit) with occasional slowdown. Running at 1080p with 4x aa, 16x af and FXAA filter. Everything is emulated perfectly except for two minor graphical bugs: some glow effect are less subtle than on the Wii, letters on the credits are invisible (but still intractable). | RedstoneForge |
4.0-4760 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i5-540M @ 2.53GHz | NVIDIA NVS 5100M | Playable, 30-60FPS during stages. Menus at 60FPS. HUD visible. Running at 1x IR, no AF or AA. | |
4.0-5899 | Windows 7 | Intel Pentium G3258 @ 3.8GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 | 30/60FPS All the time with these settings: DirectX 11, 4x Anti-alising, 16x AF, 1366x768 Internal Resolution | Quote |
5.0-rc-5 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i5-2500k @ 3.3GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti | Emulação Perfeita 30FPS Full Speed com OpenGL, 1080p e 3X Resolução Interna e 4x AA, 16x AF | Willjay_01 |
4.0-7005 | Windows 8.1 | Intel Core i5-4590 | AMD R9 280 | 30FPS with OpenGL and 3X internal resolution | Mors |
5.0 | Windows 10 | Intel Xeon X5450 @ 3GHz | NVIDIA GeForce 730 | While DirectX12 turned on with 3x native resolution at a window resolution of 1280x720 around 25-30FPS, but when it locks to 30FPS it feels way more than what it shows. | ĐeäTh |
5.0 | Windows 10 | Intel Core 2 Quad Q9505 @ 2.83GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 | Playable 30FPS most of the time, with some stuttering on first minutes of gameplay. FPS dropped to 22 on certain parts of Sweet Mountain. Using DirectX 11, 3x native resolution. | jonasbantunes |
5.0-200 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i7-5820K @ 3.3GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 | Runs at 4k 30FPS no problems runs at 2k 60FPS(With code) but needs to turn the CPU clock speed up a lot. | Brimaster2000 |
5.0-13424 | Windows 10 | AMD Ryzen 5 3600 @ 3.6GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 | The game runs at 4k30fps fine, and at 1080p60fps fine at 165% clock speed fine. The game is fully beatable with no discernible issues, though I'd actually recommend playing in native resolution. The bloom is broken above internal resolution with scaled EFB copy on, as is the depth of field, and turning off scaled EFB copy makes the game present at 480p frame anyways. | Luig |

Game Description & Reviews:
Very good game one of best 3d Sonic titles. In this game, you can play as Tails, Sonic, Knuckles, Amy, Big, E-102, and even two hidden characters.
SuperjakkoTM rates this game: 5/5One of the release games with the dreamcast and what a blinder! Sonic's first proper 3d adventure is a huge game and offers plenty of lastability because of the ability to choose a character and simply wander around. The level of puzzles is superb and you can immerse yourself as little or as much as you'd like in order to complete the game. Graphically it was gorgeously ahead of it's time and the soundtrack was absolutely spot on too.
Once completed I'd find myself drawn back into playing the game from the start again (by deleting my saves) simply because it was so much fun. Redefined the phrase 'cute platformer' by tagging on an enormous game that was simply excellent. Also not as linear as the follow-up, meaning once you'd completed the tasks there was not much more fun to be had (in Sonic 2).
Cyberxion says:The premiere DC Sonic game, this adventure takes Sonic and pals into the 3rd dimension for fantastically frantic gameplay.
Chillfresh rates this game: 5/5Sonic adventure is an advanced 1998 3D platforming game developed by sega for their Dreamcast. Buildem all mac os. Ports were released for the GCN and the PC in 2003. These met poor reviews by critiqs. The game has high quality graphics and may be hard to emulate on some lower quality computers.
The first 3d sonic game to take 3d gaming to a new level. The character selection and free roam capabilities were spot on and offered countless hours og play and replay. This title is easy to get hooked, and is beyond the abilities of the more recent releases in terms of enjoyability.
