Description

For about a year now, the Hedge Mod Loader has not been able to load anything for Sonic Frontiers. Now, since I wasn't interested in frontiers when it started, I never bothered to make an issue, thinking it was just a temporary problem that would get fixed. Well, a year later, and it's still a problem, and I don't know what causes it at all. I tried deleting the mods folder and cpkredir.ini file in the game directory which didn't work. I also tried deleting and renaming the "HedgeModManager" folder in the "NeverFinishAnything" folder, also didn't work.

My Frontiers mod/code list is Remodelled Sonic (https://gamebanana.com/mods/500166) and Boot Directly to Title

HMM_Snapshot_00092025112956.txt

I recorded the opening for both frontiers and unleashed to show that only frontiers don't work (I don't have any other sonic games installed to test).

And here's a snapshot file just in case its needed.

Note: both old version of the hedgemodmanager and the rewrite version fail to load mods and is exactly the same as in the videos

Done means identifying and fixing the Frontiers-specific failure so the listed mods or codes load successfully.
