Just Gona nip this is the bud before it goes anywhere https://www.speedrun.com/re2/thread/szpv4
Hello, thanks for the suggestions but we're not looking to separate any categories or add new ones.
PS1/2 are in the same section because well.. they're the same version, only one is faster than the other. Filter by platform if you wish to see the fastest PS1 time.
PS3/PSP are already separated and we don't allow to speed up any loading times on any version.
Lastly about DC Emu we feel that 2 options for emulator is enough, there's really no point to run on DC Emu when Dolphin Emu already has a category.
Your problem is you don't have livesplit set to game time. SRT and the livesplit script work the same way, they both read the game memory and display the game timer. follow this guide for livesplit and make sure to run livesplit as administrator
Tbh if someone is disabled or has trouble with cramping or whatever i think they need to understand they'll always be at a huge disadvantage and probably never get a WR.
Here's a personal example..
i bought a Japanese GameCube to run Biohazard 2 but during the run my hand cramps up and i physically cannot do more than one run at a time, So i stopped running it and sold the console.
The point i'm trying to make is although it sucks that a small number of people are left behind that doesn't mean a new category should to be created to make it easier for them, they need to accept the fact they're at a disadvantage and either stop running the game as it's clearly not doing them any favors for long term health or have fun with the game and go as fast as they can without putting strain on themselves.
Anyone with hand problems should consider a PS4 controller though and remap to the analog stick for stair skating because that is a damn good alternative, allowing people to use turbo isn't.
Just throwing this out there, if this tool is allowed maybe add a variable to the categories " GL tool - Yes/no" that way people can just filter out the GL tool runs if they don't agree with it being used. Surely that would keep both sides happy?
You mean with Chris in the casino? If so it's not possible
There's a new patch for the game coming very soon, I've personally tested it and it seems to have fixed all problems I've ever seen with this game. I would suggest keeping an eye on these forums for the official release of it :)
Category Extensions are LIVE and can be found here https://www.speedrun.com/re1ce
Currently we only have New Game+ as a category and would like the community to give us suggestions on what you would like to see
Current categories in mind are Handgun only Shotgun only All kills/ All kills knife only
I put up an IGT script that just tracks the IGT in Livesplit for now in the downloads section of Category Extensions because until we have solid routes there's not much point in us making Autosplitters just yet.
But if there's any other suggestions for categories now is the time to say :D
Everyone that's signed up for the Tournament please read this!
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ewAccfMT6d5E4Y7_nm_H0RqtwHzjAn5aNOb5uSAFqTU/edit
Sign ups for the tournament close Friday! Any sign ups after Friday will mean you become a reserve incase of a drop out.
Due to the over whelming amount of sign ups we're gonna be hosting a qualifier round to narrow it down to the top 16 runners so get practicing! More details soon
I think rebirth only patched software mode so there's no way around it unless you get the Japanese version and use our patch instead.
Hello everyone so you may remember in 2017 myself and some other runners organised an RE2 tournament which happened on Twitch.tv/RESpeedruns
The tournament was a huge success despite being told over and over again that it would never work.
So how about we have that same success with an RE1 tournament? If you're interested please sign up here
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lU65BuHKDRrfipM-zJ6OBglQ4w4wtS9QOEON5XzLTNI/edit?chromeless=1
No dates are set yet for the tournament, we're in the early stages of planning but make sure to give RESpeedruns a follow on Twitch and join the tournament discord if you're interested in running, commentating or even helping with organisation! https://discord.gg/DQ72Dqd
Imo If the runs were submitted before the rule change they should be verified
I'd say ban it personally the time save is minimal
Regardless of the intent it should be removed. His run is sub hour meaning he wouldn't have to cut and splice 2 halves of the run together due to the 1 hour recording limit.
Allowing this type of thing to stay on the boards opens the doors for a lot of abuse in the future.
It's not elitist, I originally expressed my opinion to other moderators to make the main category assisted instead of standard (before the board opened). imo it's one or the other. Like you said, assisted for max speed and hardcore for challenge that is also how I see it, the middle ground of standard would be pointless though imo if all 3 difficulties were a thing for New Game.
Is there really any point to assisted though? Sure it's a little faster but it's even less interesting than PC 120 imo, 3 difficulties is just overkill.
Not to mention the Auto-healing bullshit
