@0hli the SMBX2 timer doesn't use the Native End Game Event, SMBX2 uses the Boss Dead event to stop the timer. Don't forget to submit your record to the IL borad.

I'll be back later.

@Wohlstand, did you make an update to the build? @0hli, in the meantime can you get the IL WRs for A Short Level Fake Exit

Downloaded the latest build and Xtech is still one frame faster

@0lhi, I think that's fine because every time you start a new run you start a completely different save file and reset the timer. I don't really think there's a way around this, so I think it's best to just inform people that they want to start runs from the main menu after deleting their saves/time data on resets.

Also, the Game Timer is a combination of world map and IL time, so that result is accurate.

Thanks for the help 0lhi, if you want you can use Xtech for IL runs

Wohl If you do a frame perfect level entrance to the second level, Xtech is always one frame ahead. If you play this video in watchframebyframe.com, you can see that Xtech is always faster on the world map, or can catch with your eyes in time http://www.watchframebyframe.com/

0hli Xtech is approved for individual level runs.

Wohl

Hey, the two in-game timers do not match up currently. Xtech becomes one frame ahead (faster every time the world map loads). I made a test file (XTech was 0.795 and X2 was 0.811) Can this please be fixed?

Thanks

Here's the flags to simulate Beta 4 Physics (Mode 2)

enable-last-warp-hub-resume = False fix-platform-acceleration = False fix-pokey-collapse = False fix-player-filter-bounce = True fix-player-downward-clip = True fix-npc-downward-clip = True fix-npc55-kick-ice-blocks = False fix-climb-invisible-fences = False fix-climb-bgo-speed-adding = False enable-climb-bgo-layer-move = False fix-player-clip-wall-at-npc = False fix-skull-raft = False fix-peach-escape-shell-surf = False

Some random ILs in other games might need to simulate 1.3 Physics (1.3) Where everything else is false.

Now just to verify the timer is running correctly on the world map, and I can approve this

Wohl

Thank you so much for making the gif demo. That saves me a bunch of time on verifying it.

If possible, could you post the test files you used on the github? This would be the quickest way to approve the timer

Thank you, I'm going to investigate the glitches when I have time

0lhi Can you post the following for me in the next post: It's likely I won't have much time to handle this due to having a quiz on Wednesday and Graduate Program Applications.

  1. The build link.
  2. The Github Documentation Page About Glitches
  3. The Command We Use to Run for Speedrun Mode
AntarcticaEclipsed3 years ago

Can you link the website of the build. I forgot what it was

AntarcticaEclipsed3 years ago

Tested, it and the level timer works properly

There's an issue on windows where the framerate on WIndows is consistently on 200 for the newest XTech build so I can't do more tests

Just a heads up.

Hey, I can't approve this for runs until I can verify and check everything works. The reason is there's a lot of Mode3 flags, I need to manually go through myself. Right now, I'm trying to get my discord back so I can more quickly contact with Wohl about this situation.
