Super Sonic Generations is a mod for Sonic Generations, created by JoeTE.
DxWnd can make practically any game/application that is fullscreen go into windowed mode (even the most stubborn ones!; e.g. Chicken Invaders 1). A fantastic frame limiter for non-D3D and D3D games, windower, CD audio fixes etc, a great package. Bobo-ladouche Posted.

READ BEFORE VIEWING - All information obtained from: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t. It used to be possible to run Sonic Generations in Windowed Mode, but this no longer works. I fear I never tested it personally, so I don't know what went wrong, but I'll try to find out. Running Version 2.04.00 (2.04.99 gives the above mentioned error) and older.
Sonic Generations Windowed Mode Mod Pc
In this PC-exclusive graphics mod for Sonic Generations, 'Super' Forms are the norm. And then the game actually plays a bit differently once you start using skills and the Hyper Sonic transformation..
Features:
Sonic Generations Windowed Mode Mod 1
The models for Classic Sonic, Modern Sonic, Classic Tails, Modern Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, Silver, and Blaze have been modified, making them resemble their Super Forms (or Burning Form, in Blaze's case.)
Classic Metal Sonic's model has been changed into a 'Classic' version of Neo Metal Sonic (from Sonic Heroes.)
The Acceleration skill gives a much greater Speed increase than it does in the un-modded game.
The Barrier, Ring Time, Power Sneakers, and the 3 elemental shields can all be used 5 times within a single stage, instead of only once or twice.
Modern 'Super' Sonic can now utilize the Barrier, Ring Time, Power Sneakers, Invincible Start, and the 3 Elemental Shield skills. Do note that Modern 'Super' Sonic is unable to utilize the extra 'jumps' granted by the Elemental Shields.
The 'Super Sonic' skill has been changed into a 'Hyper Sonic' skill. Upon collecting 50 rings while using this skill, either version of 'Super' Sonic can use the Super Emeralds to transform into Hyper Sonic (from Sonic 3 & Knuckles.) Hyper Sonic is a LOT faster than normal, and only loses 1 ring every second (instead of losing 2 or 4 rings per second.) However, the increased speed can make Hyper Sonic a bit more difficult to control.
A vast majority of the game's HUD assets have been remade at a higher resolution, making them look better at 1080p/1440p. Additionally, most HUD assets have been modified to match up with the altered character models.
The 'Super Sonic Generations: Lite Version' is similar to the Full Version, but with none of the NPC models altered, and with only a small portion of the game's HUD assets have been remade. It's suitable for use alongside custom stage mods.
Additionally, the 'Super Sonic Generations: Save File' mod includes 10 normally impossible skill sets. A list of those is included in the mod's README text file.
To install the mod Sonic Generations you have to use SonicGMI.
After installation of the program you'll find many predefined file types. Furthermore you can create dynamic titles using simple variables.You can add files of any file type to the playlist. DisclaimerPlaylist Creator is a product developed. If the desired file type is missing you can easily add new file types to the list.For compatibility with a wide variety of hardware and software Playlist Creator can create playlists either in PLS-format or M3U-format.
