I made Amy fast - Modders please help

[Rider]

Hello! My name is Rider and I was messing around in SADX and I fixed Amy's Physics!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o98nrshrp-k

However, this is the first time i've ever actually created a mod and since I edited the .exe file itself when I made this I'm unsure of how legal it is to distribute it.

I would like some help in spreading this mod to a wider audience with a mod loader or something of the sort without having to potentially pirate the game to people.

Somebody familiar with SADX modding please help me!!

Thank you very very much!!

There are several places you can share mods, such as Gamebanana. Create a new mod in the mod manager & add "EXEFile=(file name).EXE" to the mod's mod.ini if you want the game to make sure that you run the modded EXE file.

Thank you very much, but I don't really understand very well what you're trying to tell me. Do you have any sort of video explaining what needs to be done...?

Go to the SADX mod manager, click on "New mod"
Enter some basic info about your mod and then go to the folder for your mod.
Add the line "EXEFile=(exe file name).EXE" to the mod's mod.ini file.
(Make sure the modified EXE is not called "sonic"!)

To get the mod ready for uploading to something like Gamebanana, make a new zip archive using something like WinRAR or 7Zip and put the modified EXE file in the ZIP file. Make a new folder in the ZIP file and call it "mods". Put your mod's folder in the "mods" folder inside the ZIP file and then you're done.

Okay so i've done all of this but its still not working because I do not wish to distribute exe files to the public (apparently its bad form in the modern modding community/slightly illegal.)

It's fine, several other mods do it, such as the mod which adds Shadow with a custom running animation.

No like I got chewed out and told to learn basic coding before I attempt to distribute this.

(What is this shadow mod you speak of though....)

Chewed out by who?

(The shadow mod is an old mod which only works without the modloader but it has a custom animation for running which was made by editing the EXE file & CHRMODELS.DLL. Someone ported the model to the modloader, but the EXE was already compatable with the modloader so the EXE was released with the ported version of the mod)

Ohhh...that sounds like a really fun shadow mod ;w;....do you have a link?

(i'd prefer to keep identities out of the public eye.)
