Hey, Xaklse. It's me again, Handepsilon. We exchanged e-mails about SonicGDK back then after my Trial in SonicRetro expired.

I just wish to tell you that I'm planning on re-researching the GDK's scripts for my team's UDK project, particularly the part that keeps Sonic aligned to the floor. I hope that would be ok with you. Thanks in advance ^^

Hello my friend. Congratulations, your game looks amazing, I will for sure try it! I am also a UDK developer (@udkultimate), and I want to invite you to take a look at my new upcoming game, made in UDK (a modified version which exports the game for PC, PS3 and Xbox360):

Green Hill Paradise Act 2 claims it is missing files when I try to run it. Does anyone have a solution? It would be greatly appreciated.
