WE'RE BACK BABY!
Sonic Adventure 2: Resynced is a mod that aims to fix a lot of things with cutscenes. Starting with..
LIPSYNC IS FINALLY FIXED
One of the biggest problems with SA2's cutscenes, was that the cutscenes were never lipsynced to the English audio. This mod's main goal is to fix that, and add lipsync where there wasn't as well!
NEW EXPRESSIONS
Another problem with Sonic Adventure 2's cutscenes is that some of the expressions look off in some situations. This mod adds, retimes, and changes expressions for cutscenes, to make them feel more natural.
LINE TIMING FIXED
A side effect of Sonic Adventure 2 being based on the Japenese version is that some lines are shorter in that language, and then go over each other. Resynced fixes these moments which helps make each cutscene flow better.
And the big one....
DREAMCAST CUTSCENES!
While all of these problems could be fixed on their own, the state that which these cutscenes were left in was sad. A lot of these were from hardware limitations of the Gamecube, such as removed specular, missing flags, and multi-lighting removed,
which hurt the lighting a lot. The models were also inconsistent, and a lot of other problems all made these cutscenes worse then they were before. Cutscene Revamp set out to make these cutscenes as close to Dreamcast as possible, but it didn't
have any other fixes besides that, due to the limitations of cutscene modding technology at the time. Sonic Adventure 2: Resynced uses the Dreamcast Cutscenes as its base, with consistent models, better lighting, better animation, the works. With
all of these fixes, this makes it the definitive English version of Sonic Adventure 2's cutscenes!
SONIC ADVENTURE 2 RENDER FIX IS REQUIRED FOR THINGS TO WORK CORRECTLY WITH BACKFACE CULLING IN EVENTS
IF YOU ARE USING CUTSCENE REVAMP WITH THIS MOD MAKE SURE RESYNCED IS UNDER CUTSCENE REVAMP
ALL CUTSCENES UP TO THE 17TH CUTSCENE ARE CHANGED, DEMO 4 WILL HOPEFULLY FINISH THE HERO STORY
I'll be looking forward to this amazing mod's final release =) (Also, there's a glitch during Shadow's first Chaos Control in the first encounter of Sonic where it's off-centered and under the floor and some cutscenes crash no matter what order. Can this be fixed?)

That's not a bug. You need "Backface Culling In Cutscenes" on in SA2: Render Fix
Didn't try this mod yet but I really want to. The idea is really good!
