I. Overview:

This hack is for fans to play for usual characters from the SOR universe.
The hack is primarily inspired by these two works http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4197/ and http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4283/
This hack allows the player to play as the modified versions Max and SOR3 versions of Axel, Blaze, and Roo in SOR2.


II. Features:

* Axel and Blaze have SOR3 style appearances with some modifications.
* All playable characters can run (with weapon animations).
* All playable characters can change direction and turn around while running.
* All playable characters can jump further while running.
* The command to run (f, f) becomes more sensitive.
* The game has Juggling !!.
* Neutral Air Attack is now Air to Air. Works great for juggling an opponent in a corner or while playing in Co-op, but can miss when attacking a ground target.
* You can choose the same characters.
* SoR3 like ñombo style - you can deal combo, without hit enemy.
* Player characters have new animation recovery when they escape from being thrown (up + C).
* Charge attacks require holding B for only 2/3 second.
* Offensive Special no longer costs player’s own health.
* If the player presses A while running, the player’s character will perform Offensive Special (in the original game, nothing will happen).
* You can use the Defensive Special and Offensive Special when you capture the enemy.
* You can use the Defensive Special and Offensive Special when grabbing an enemy from behind.
* KO count of the players is displayed.
* Roo replaces Skate as a playable character.
* Mania difficulty is directly accessible.
* Stage selection is available.
* Added 6-Button gamepad Support. Back attack now is Y button

III. Characters:

Max:
* Max has the fewest changes, the new dynamics will boost it incredibly.

* You can move a little while using Defensive Special.

* FA now is "Shoryuken" You can destroyed Jet.

Blaze:
* Used color scheme from this hack http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4283/

* B + C. The sprite is drawn by savok.
* B + C new special effect taken from this rom http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4636/

IV. Hint:

If you did a Forward Jump Attack with a run, and continue to hold forward, then upon landing the character will run further. You can use this to apply the new B + C Blaze attack. Example
