Dang, sorry to hear. If it's stopping you, I'd suggest visiting the X-hax discord linked in the description. The creators of the addon are there, and they can help fix the addon.

Thank you so much for the compliments! Yea, this definitely sounds like a Blender problem, which the X-Hax discord would know plenty about. I'd ask there!

@@techno_letsgo But it really is true! You're kind and you take your time explaining while being straight to the point at the same time, that made it even more enjoyable too! I asked the X-Hax discord server about it around a week ago but there hasn't been much on it so far, I think they're confused just as much as I am. Blender crashes completely whenever I try looking at the materials for anything related to Sonic Advenure 2, a landtable, even a model. I really don't get why it's doing this and it's preventing me from modding, I'm giving it time though!

@@RadicalBlur If i were to suggest trying anything, I think it's worth reinstalling blender and making sure it and the addon is the most up to date. I've heard of a few people trying Blender 3 and the addon not working properly, or a few instances of different addons conflicting with one another. But I definitely think its a small issue, and once we find it, you should be good to go. Hope this helps

techno_letsgo I actually did try reinstalling Blender before but I still have that crashing problem, I know for sure that it doesn't run on blender 3 because the minimum version it says for the Blender I/O on the github page says it needs version 4.2 or higher. I'm using blender 4.3 and I think that's the latest version right now. I actually did try it out on my main computer with Blender 3 and the whole plugin doesn't really work at all, it's not made for it. But I'm using a completely different computer for modding and I can use the latest Blender version on it. Man I hope it's a small problem, I know there's a way to solve it but I'm really confused what the solution even is. Thank you for advice and wanting to help me out with this!

That sucks. I'm not quite sure what the cause is (maybe blender version)? But I recommend you join the X-Hax discord linked in the description, where the authors of the blender addon would be more than happy to help you out :)

Did you enable level tools by changing the scene type to "Landtable?" (12:10) Edit: Wait, I see you're talking about the tab on the bottom right. It doesn't show if you select the mesh in object mode?

Hi!! I'll try to answer your questions as best I can. 1 (Blender version). I looked it up, and it seems like there's actually a way to have multiple versions of Blender installed on your computer. docs.blender.org/manual/en/2.80/getting_started/installing/windows.html#:~:text=Install%20from%20Zip&text=With%20this%20option%2C%20it%20is,r%20from%20the%20Command%20Line. If you install Blender 4.0 into its own Zip file, you can use the Sonic Adventure 2 addon while keeping your old 3.6 addons intact. (Optional) If you feel that your 3.6 addons may not be updated any time in the future, it may just be easier to make 3.6 your separate Zip file installation. That way, your 3.6 addons stay safe, while your default Blender can be up to date and available for new addons. 2 (Level replacement). Yea for the time being, due to the hard-coded nature of levels, we can only replace levels instead of adding new ones. As for what level, you have complete control. Mech, speed, even kart levels. As for mechless, you can just use a regular level (speed or mech) and force the character to be mechless using code or a separate mod. 3 (List of selectable characters). I think there's already a mod that does this. gamebanana.com/mods/33170 In any case, when you're making your own mod, you can actually require users to have other mods as dependencies, so if you really want your mod to have character selection, you can add it as a dependency. ------ I definitely recommend joining the X-Hax discord, we'd be more than happy to help you start :) discord.gg/gqJCF47

This tutorial goes over replacing one level, and you can choose which one in the level_options.ini file. (see level_import_id). You edit/create levels in Blender, and once exported, you use the "My Level Mod" to import them into the game, replacing existing levels.

@@techno_letsgo Thanks so much for the clarity and also for making these videos in general. It was so hard to find tutorials on SA2 modding before and thanks to you I actually have somewhere to start learning how to get into it!

@@diamondinthesky4771 Thank you!! If you ever get into it i wish you luck!!

Check the description, there's a whole playlist for ya, Set files included :) th-cam.com/play/PLjLHUnxroict_8mOXWpa5Mifoc-xluVXE.html
