0 - Getting Started
Make sure you do this before attempting to install any mods.
You will need HedgeModManager, this is a program that allows you to select and configure Sonic Frontiers mods.
Screenshot of UI
To install, go to https://gamebanana.com/tools/6311 and extract it into your SF directory (usually in Steam\steamapps\common\SonicFrontiers).
Boot the .exe file and it will install everything needed for modding, including a mods folder.
Windows may say that the file is dangerous, I know this sounds suspicious but it is Windows Antivirus having a seizure, the program is safe.
Now you can install mods.
1 - Graphics Mods/Performance
HD Sonic and Amy - Spoon
These mods improve heavily on the textures and poly count of Sonic and Amys models, and there could be more to come, for other characters!
(WARNING! You need 4GB or more VRAM to run it optimally)
