Odd Genesis Emulation Results

[sheik124]

i was messing around with Gens using different sonic roms and seeing how they reacted to a Sonic 2 + Sonic and Knuckles Lock-On save state and how sonic 3 reacted to a sonic and knuckles save state
for the file names i did this:
xRy.gif
the x states what rom i used, the y states the save state
S stands for Sonic The Hedgehog
S2aK stands for Sonic 2 and Sonic and Knuckles Lock-On
SaK is Sonic and Knuckles
S3 is Sonic The Hedgehog 3 (no duh!)
when i attempted running Sonic 3 with a Sonic 2 and Knux save state, the level loaded up, along with the music, cept the clock and knux were frozen
when i tried running sonic 3 with a s2 and knux save state i got the same thing
when i ran a sonic and knuckles save state on sonic 3, the screen went purple and it played random samples of music from both games, if you have the roms and the emus, try it out
could this possibly mean that there was sonic 2 content in sonic and sonic 3? or is it some weird emu screw up thingamajigger?
i'm lost here

The only reason your seeing content from other roms when using different save states in them is because the content is within the save state, it doesnt work because the data is forign to the various other games.

I already played around with S3/S&K/S3&K save stats. I've been able to play with Tails in S&K alone, playing as hyper Sonic/Knuckles (with super emeralds) in S&K only, an stuff like that.

Possible things:

-load S3K/SK(when in SK levels) saves with S2K
-load S3K (when in SK levels) saves with SK alone
dunno for others.

I also have the saves to get into Flying battery with Sonic 3 and to get to the boss. (not a S3K/SK save)
