As part of the usual debugging text, full filenames for every source file were included.

Debug text from before has been replaced/supplemented with weirder debug text.

Graphics options still exist via hacking, but the resolution is locked at 640Г—480 and cannot be changed.

F10 pauses the game until next keypress (dings when key is struck) unless you hit Enter, which acts like pressing Alt + Space. Draw distance cap seems to have been removed for F1 and F2, meaning you can set the draw distance to absurdly high levels without needing a memory or hex editor.

No visible graphics options but F-keys still work.

Otherwise, graphics files are completely unchanged. This is likely for the new text '2004 edition' in the credits screen.

/bin/credits/credit00.RAW gained a set of numbers.

Strangely, the timestamp on /island/parallax/_I.RAW has been updated, but the contents are absolutely identical. These are played when the player is close to certain objects: 'Waterfall' next to the Resort Island waterfall, 'beach' to the side (on the path) of the first mini-island closest to the village, and 'flame' next to the flames at the start of Regal Ruin.

Addition of sounds Waterfall.WAV, beach.WAV, and flame.WAV.

It's slightly more bearable to listen to.

Tails.WAV has been changed to crop off decay and be less choppy-sounding.

Amy.WAV has been changed, with no major audible differences but a slightly increased length.

The music can now be set to multiple volume levels, rather than a simple On/Off toggle.

Music only plays once per level and does not loop.

The music does not pause when the game pauses.

Strangely, they take up most of the disk space (~500MB) due to being uncompressed, so there's really not a net benefit beyond simplifying the burning process (which, considering how well the previous releases went, was probably well-needed).

They can be opened with Audacity's 'Raw Import' feature. SON files are really just signed 16-bit PCM Little-Endian Stereo 44100Hz raw data.

In contrast, the 2004 version was stored in /MUSIC on the CD as '.SON' files.

(It's worth mentioning that it was not present on some reprints.) This means you could stick it in a CD player and it would play.

The old releases of Sonic R had CD Redbook Audio.

EXE parameters have been added, presumably for debugging purposes.

All the resources for the old DirectX test menu have been removed.

Also, the controls work on modern systems without needing a DirectX windower. It no longer crashes on high-speed CPUs, either.

It does not crash when Windows is switched to Security Desktop (locked screen/UAC).As such, all 8-bit bitmaps were also removed. DirectDraw support was dropped only Direct3D is supported. The 2004 version requires DirectX 9+, whereas the old version only needed DirectX 6+.Unlike the old version where the game was fully set up ready to go on the disk and was simply copied on installation, the 2004 version embeds the program files in an InstallShield installer. The program cannot be run directly from the disc.They are 'Randomization tables' used for unknown reasons. New files '/bin/randtab.bin' and '/bin/randtab2.bin' were added.
