Am I the only one who hates when modders make the boost animation him skating faster. This is like the only good animation mod to me since the boost animation is him hovering.
They probably just have nostalgia for Adventure 2, not realizing that was just Shadow’s animation sped up (at max speed, he looks REALLY goofy), since they probably didn’t have the horsepower for two separate animations back then. Like at that point, just make him run if you just want him skating really fast, which btw, is NOT how skating of any kind works.
@@paperluigi6132 Fuck the logic you're talking about. All the idiots who want to attach the hover boost to Shadow are haters of the character or Sonic fanboys trying to show that Shadow is nothing and slow without his air shoes, creating a speed gap between him and Sonic with the latest stupid game that came out for him, ignoring all the cinematic scenes that justify Shadow's movement and his ability to match Sonic's speed without using the dumb hover boost.
FINALLY A mod that appreciates the hover animations. Every other animation mod changes it. And before you guys get into the replies saying "It's stiff" "it's boring" "it's lazy" "it's not cool" "skate is better", note that the animators can do whatever you want. You can have your opinion on which is better, but you have no right to put that onto them, even if it's the official team. They do it because they like it and they think others do to, not because they aren't bothered.
I wish more people would tackle the hover boost, even just more exaggerated posing shows how cool it could actually look, flying itself is not the problem. Kind of a shame it's only been done in a mod where the whole purpose is staying close to the original animations. Honestly I'm convinced at this point that people just don't WANT to like it. Also these counter arguments are so stupid, and they're used SO often. "It's stiff" not a hovering issue "It's boring" really? "It's lazy" and just speeding up the skate isn't? "It's not cool" really??? "Skate is better" Ok I can't really fault an outright conceptual preference Also, regardless of how much sense it may or may not make to skate faster during a boost, the skating just feels... counterintuitive? Like, it makes sense when you just want to move fast, but skating doesn't really exert the force that running or [flying? jetting? rocketing?] does for ramming through enemies.
@TerraBlue_451 to me it seems that people just like how it was before, and instead of admitting they are biased, just refuse to accept any other opinion. There are many merits to the hover animation, but hey refuse to listen.
@@hotrod_hornet it makes more sense considering the hover shoes, it's more unique than just "faster skate" similar to faster running for Sonic, it makes sense for Shadow's character as it's more efficient, it shows evolution with how he keeps up with Sonic, and imo, more creative than just speeding up the skate animation, since they have to think more about it. I will say though, the one made by the devs isn't the best. I like it, don't get me wrong, but I wish there was more movement to it. This one here is good to, but it's still a bit stiff. But that's not an inherent problem with the hover animation concept. Your problems are with the execution, and yourself. There's nothing wrong with using it.
This is cope lol every single cutscene in the game has shadow skating, he even boosts WHILE SKATING during the fight with Sonic, it's just a leftover animation from generations/forces that they don't wanna change and it also means they don't have to program a falling animation (shadow maintains the hover boost while falling too)
idk why everyone's having beef with eachother on which boost is better, i just really like the animations! i love the basegame ones, but the squash-and-stretch gives me me heavy heroes/shad05 vibes, and imo its really cool thanks for showing off this mod!
0:58 Oh man that animation looks so cool. He actually looks like he's leaning in to turn left and right
These animations are sick but the vanilla game did great
SHADOW FORCES himself to do better animations
Only 2 likes? Lemme fix that
That’s 10 likes as of me. Also nice PUN
I mean, it is a pretty dead meme, @@Sub2MilesMorales. Best left forgotten like the game the meme is joking on.
@@jasonnguyen1072hey
GET OUT jk that was a good one 😂
1:44 and that would be the end of the stage if this was forces
Watching other people foing speedruns (without breaking the game using Chaos Spear)really l helps me optimize my runs
These are cool new animations for Shadow.
Mans almost got a 04:20.69 time in Sunset Heights. The animations look amazing
Me loving all the animation.
Meanwhile, the boosting animation:
Yep, I’ll download this when they do something with the boost animation.
boost animation is fye wdym?

@ why do you like shittier things? What’s wrong with you?
@@bumblebeealso he's hovering, i think that looks like shit. I've got a mod that replaces it so i'll use that one instead of this everytime
Yes, the best shadow animations that everybody asked for
I'm convinced people just hate the hover boost because they don't want to admit they're wrong.

"It's stiff" not a hovering issue
"It's boring" really?
"It's lazy" and just speeding up the skate isn't?
"It's not cool" really???

@@sikosonix901 What are the merits to the Hover Boost exactly

If you want another cool mod for Sonic x Shadow Generations, try the Metal Sonic Skin Mod in Shadow's place.
Shadow’s cooler

thanks for showing off this mod!
Okay this is amazing
10/10
Cool stuff
Besides the flying boost this is so fire
bruh what the fuck who made these
Is this new update??
No. It's mods.
@@FiveyrkgosOk.
Nice Video
Awesome!
