 [XenonRecomp](https://github.com/hedge-dev/XenonRecomp) and [XenosRecomp](https://github.com/hedge-dev/XenosRecomp) are the main recompilers used for converting the game's original PowerPC code and Xenos shaders into compatible C++ and HLSL code respectively. The development of these recompilers was directly inspired by [N64: Recompiled](https://github.com/N64Recomp/N64Recomp), which was used to create [Zelda 64: Recompiled](https://github.com/Zelda64Recomp/Zelda64Recomp).

 ## Features

+### Easy to Use Installer
 
 A built-in installation wizard will guide you through the process of installing the game with many integrity checks to ensure the process goes as smoothly as possible. The installer can also be accessed from the title screen, if you wish to add the DLC at a later time.
 
-### • Options Menu
+### Options Menu
 
 A completely new options menu accessible from the title screen or pause menu, with an unprecedented level of fidelity to the game's design language. Get access to many quality of life features and graphics options directly within the game with full controller navigation.
 
-### • Achievements
+### Achievements
 
 You will be rewarded with achievements as you progress through the game just like on its original platform. Achievements are recreated with integrated notifications and a new menu also very faithful to the game's design language. Get all of them and you will be rewarded with a gold trophy!
 
 > [!NOTE]
 > Achievements cannot be used with platforms such as Steam or RetroAchievements.
 
-### • Custom Localization
+### Custom Localization
 
 All of the new menus in the port fully support localization for each of the game's originally supported languages; English, Japanese, German, French, Spanish and Italian. As a bonus, switching the game to Japanese also changes the title screen logo to its original Japanese counterpart.
 
-### • High Fidelity
+### High Fidelity
 
 Special care and attention was taken to recreate the game's visuals as accurately as possible and was always compared to the game running on the original hardware. The colors are as vibrant as those of the PlayStation 3 version, which did not use the color correction filter present in the Xbox 360 version, as was originally intended. Nevertheless, an option to recreate the original warm filter from the Xbox 360 version has been included as an option.

+### High Frame Rate Support
 
 The game's frame rate cap has been increased by default to 60 FPS, with support for higher targets and unlocked frame rate being available from the options menu. A vast amount of glitches that usually occur at higher frame rates have been fixed and are included as part of the recompilation.
 
 > [!NOTE]
 > While the game is considered to be beatable at frame rates higher than 60 FPS, please note that [some issues](#high-frame-rate-glitches) can still occur. Some of these issues may be addressed in future updates.
 
-### • Ultrawide Support
+### Ultrawide Support
 
 Aspect ratios for ultrawide displays (such as 21:9 or even wider) are supported out of the box, with options to adjust the alignment of the UI to the edges or to the original 16:9 safe area, if desired. No external codes are required!
 
 > [!NOTE]
 > By default, cutscenes are locked to their original aspect ratio to prevent [presentation issues](#ultrawide-visual-issues), as the game was not designed to present these scenes with wider aspect ratios. However, you can use the included option to unlock this feature if you don't mind these issues.
 
-### • Low Input Latency
+### Low Input Latency
 
 Modern input latency reduction techniques are included to improve the game's responsiveness as much as possible, such as support for [Waitable Swap Chains](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/gaming/reduce-latency-with-dxgi-1-3-swap-chains) in both D3D12 and Vulkan. This methodology was applied directly before the game's input polling to minimize latency. Additionally, the D3D12 backend also supports [Flip Models](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/directx/dxgi-flip-model/), allowing the game to directly present to the screen as quickly as possible.

+### Support for Xbox and PlayStation Controller Icons
 
 You can freely choose whether to use Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 controller icons. By default, the game will automatically detect which to use based on your controller, but you can select a different option based on your personal preference from within the options menu.
 
 Game objects that display controller icons such as Reaction Plates or Jump Selectors will automatically switch their textures to match the option in use. Even small details such as the Tornado Defense missions using different colors for the missiles have been accounted for.

 Sonic Unleashed is not a game that runs at a fixed rate on any of its target platforms. While it does target 30 FPS on Xbox 360 and is uncapped on PlayStation 3, it doesn't exactly hit these targets often depending on the area, and if it does, the time step itself is subject to large deviations. The game's programming simply follows the time step as closely as possible, which means inconsistencies in the time step are impossible to reproduce without targeting one exact piece of hardware.
