CanadaHey MarthSR
Taken into consideration of what you said I sat down and worked out the boards into 3 different categories based on Arcade, PC and Arcade Archives
Arcade will focus on emulated runs, strictly at normal difficulty, but also having 1 and 2 player sub categories. I've seen questions about the addition of player names for the 2 player and I don't see it in the sub variables. If anyone knows about how to do that, any information would be greatly appreciated.
PC will be for the Dotemu version of the game, I added the 3 difficulties and the option for 1 to 2 player
Arcade Archives has been unchanged, but I did move the emulated runs over to the Arcade category.
louiskanak and Remz, if you are alright with these changes, or have some suggestions please let me know. I hope that this may bring more runners to this board.
I'll most likely return to it as soon as I finish other projects I'm working on
I really like the 100% run, but I'll probably do a any% sometime in the future.
That is something that hasn't come about yet, but does need to be addressed.
Potentially I could make a misc category for use of the GC-ism and EO-ism which may spark some interest. I'll mention in the category rules moving forward that all runs on the EO version of the game must be set to AC-ism which is the standard controls.
Thank you for the heads up!
Hi Mageius
When I became a moderator for the boards essentially there was 1 board for each category which was Any% (free options). Normal is the board you want so submit to with the default settings and such, I made up those sub categories to spark interest more so. Since then at least for me my PS3 has been acting up so I really haven't been able to attempt runs for it, I can't speak for others though.
Hope that clears things up, and good luck!
Sorry I missed going over this the last couple weeks.
I'm trying to think of the best way to go over this. I think it'll be fine as long as you submit your times and I'll go over it with my timer to get the time from when you hit next level to landing the ball in the hole.
Also congratulations on the 2nd Course WR Arco.
Individual levels have been added to the leaderboards from the Level Leaderboard section.
My best guess would be under the Arcade category for the Anniversary collections was compiled up of all the arcade titles.
Yeah, I think we can work that in as a category. I'll set something up when I get a chance later on in the weekend.
So I've implemented the new sub categories based on the difficulty. I would of like to have the game setting rules mentioned above the game mode rules, but I would of have to turn the game mode into the sub category and I don't know what the outcome would of been. I wanted to preserve the runs you guys have submitted so that was the safest way of doing so.
The oddball of the difficulty sub category would be hard, I had suggested 6 stars being the best for that. If you guys feel differently about that please let me know. I felt that 3 being the Normal (default) and 8 being the max (very hard) that 6 would be a good setting for hard.
I also mentioned in those new sub categories to have your game options screen presented in your submissions, I know it's been a common practice for some already. That'll make it a lot easier for accepting runs.
If you spot any mistakes in the rules or have a suggestion regarding changes to these rules please let me know.
Thank you all and keep those times coming, I look forward to seeing some new runs and hopefully some new runners.
Very hard sounds like a great category, I will add it alongside the default category when I get a chance to set it up. Thanks for the input, and congrats on the new PB / WR
First off I want to say how awesome it is to see new runners on the board, lets keep those times coming!
Secondly I wanted to make a small, but significant change to the rules on how it is timed. The rules state to have the timer start upon choosing the category. I looked over several speedrunning boards for various fighting games and noticed most timers start after they choose their fighters. I feel this could be a positive change for it would encourage people exploring other fighters without the fear of time loss.
I want to be as fair as possible to all runners so if you would like me to go over your run and reduce your times based on the new rules I will do so. I only ask if you could reply in this thread post, or send me a message through the platforms I have posted on my page giving me permission to do so.
Also if you would have any suggestions on future boards for this game I would like to get your input on that. I plan on adding new categories based on the default settings for the game for each category including traditional 3 round rules for single match.
Hello,
Hope I'm doing this in the right order. I submitted a run for Capcom vs. SNK 2 (https://www.speedrun.com/cvsnk2) about 3 weeks ago and am waiting on verification. I've tried to reach out to 1 of the 2 moderators, one had no means to contact for they only had a YouTube page on their info page. The other I wasn't able to contact via. Twitter, but I did try to reach out to him on Twitch on Friday (05-17-2019), but not have since received a reply. If you need any more information please let me know, and I will provide any more info required.
I'll provide a link to my run, thank you for your time.
Hey Myke,
You're right, I'll update it now to reflect the new world.
Thanks for the heads up!
Good find, dude!
Hope to see you times up soon.
Thank you, louiskanak for the mod promotion. I've setup the Arcade Archives tab with the categories Rabbithole mentioned. I added 2 player as a sub category for it may be something we could see in the future.
That was the goal I had in mind, to have it as a separate category, and to avoid creating a new game page since this one is already established.
I feel 3 would be the ideal solution, but 4 would be a good alternative if 3 is not an option.
