Introduction
This page is a collection of intriguing, mysterious and downright goofy infromation about the (official) Sonic the Hedgehog line of games. It deals with everything from Sonic the Hedgehog on the Master System to Sonic Adventure on SEGA Dreamcast.
It's basically an archive of weird STH data the author has collected since 1998, when Andre Alex Dirk had shown the world his interesting Sonic 2 cartridge. Most of the info here is exclusive unless it was "borrowed" by others. Meaning there is stuff here you won't find anywhere else!
The original authors of the finding have been listed where I myself am not the author.

Sonic 3D Blast/Flickies' Island (Page 3)

No pics here, just listing weird stuff.

Open the game's the music test. It plays BGMs in the following order:
Green Grove Zone act 1
Green Grove Zone act 2
Rusty Ruin Zone act 1
Rusty Ruin Zone act 2
Volcano Valley Zone act 2
Volcano Valley Zone act 1
Spring Stadium Zone act 1
Spring Stadium Zone act 2
Diamond Dust Zone act 1
Diamond Dust Zone act 2
Gene Gadget Zone act 1
Gene Gadget Zone act 2
Panic Puppet Zone act 2
Final Fight Zone
It shows the early level order. It makes sense; since Diamond Dust is one of the longest levels in the game, it could easily be one of the 'conclusion' zones.

This carries over to the PC and Saturn versions in a way; this is the level order for the PC Sonic 3D as it appears from the CDA track listing:
Green Grove Zone act 1
Green Grove Zone act 2
Rusty Ruin Zone act 2
Rusty Ruin Zone act 1
Spring Stadium Zone act 1
Spring Stadium Zone act 2
Volcano Valley Zone act 2
Volcano Valley Zone act 1
Diamond Dust Zone act 1
Diamond Dust Zone act 2
Gene Gadget Zone act 1
Gene Gadget Zone act 2
Panic Puppet Zone act 1
Panic Puppet Zone act 2

It's odd that while the level order was fixed partially, which is the case for Spring Stadium, other mistakes were created, like swapping the Rusty Ruin tracks (resulting in much confusion around the Sonic music sites), and some mistakes were kept. Diamond Dust/Volcano Valley swapping is the obvious one, now what about Volcano Valley acts 1 and 2? I had always thought that improving the originals meant fixing bugs as well?? O_o
