Lower Saxony, GermanyAs we are on the topic of emulators: I suppose it is not normal that the game starts slowing down immensily on a world map encounter once 2-3 wolfes spawn? I am playing with the default settings on Nestopia, do I maybe have to change something?
After learning more about how src works we found an interesting and efficient solution on how to bring back Ps2 HDD and BC Ps3 runs. The main idea is stated in this pastebin here: https://pastebin.com/BDegdNrt
The general idea of this is to add both HDD and BC in a way that they are not visible without searching for these runs. Whenever you enter the KH1 page you will only see original Ps2 runs at first but by changing the filters you can change that to either show all runs (Ps2, HDD and BC) or just specific consoles. Due to a visual bug it looks like "Any" is highlighted from the get-go but that is a src specific bug that we can't do anything about. The default is Ps2 either way.
We hope to hear your opinions on this.

Oh no, I understood the feedback thing. My points on every category was supposed to serve to that exact purpose, basically my opinion on every single category. I understand that these are ideas that won't be added just like that
My fullfleshed opinion on this as my other posts have mainly been about the CoR skip thing.
All changes under FIRST seem ot be good addition in my opinion. All of these seem fine, eventhough I am not quite understanding yet where other categories that start at the title screen (Like Plat RTA) will go now. Will they be added as normal categories? Or maybe moved to CE? I myself don't understand it to much. I think you guys are intending to move out of miscellaneous into the normal board but it doesn't seem to be clear to me.
As SECOND seems to be opinion on categories I'll just give my personal opinion on each.
Puzzle% sounds like a good idea. I've seen several people doing the category and it makes for creative ways of exploring the worlds. It is kind of similar to Most Worlds, but not exactly the same.
All Super Bosses doesn't seem like a good idea if I understand it correctly. It isn't clearly defined how the category works so my understanding is you start the game and continue playing until you defeat the final Superboss and then stop the timer. If that is the case it is basically Gold Crown. If it is supposed to be something like Data Org then I guess this might be a decent CE addition.
Keyblade% sounds like a bad category to me. This category is literally all worlds while adding Mushrooms and Synth. I don't really see a reason to add that
Bronze Crown is debateable to me. If people will run it sure, why not. But I have the feeling it might turn out like Silver Crown and won't be ran by more than 1 person if at all.
Most Worlds sounds good. I like this and can definetely see people (myself included) doing this one.
Underdrome RTA will probably be Lv 99 and Lv 1? This isn't clearly stated yet, probably cause it is a draft for the category idea, but I personally don't really care about this being added.
100 Acre Woods RTA sounds silly to me. I don't understand why KH3 has it and I don't see why KH2 would include it.
All ASS should be added, no doubt from me.
No Abilities (And no Menu regarding Blitz post) don't seem like they would get any runs done to me either. I don't see why we should add those. I can see Crystal, Sid and maybe Logic doing a few runs of it but that's it. However considering my general attitude towards adding categories it would fit into the requirements so that would be fine.
However, a few people might've heared me saying that before, I think categories shouldn't be added prematurely. It was done before on 1FM and I don't think that is a good idea personally. Something like a 2 or 3 runner rule would in my opinion be the best solution.
For LASTLY I believe there used to be more guides but some of them got lost with the merge so a revival would be good to see, same with resources. And rules are generally something that has to be reworked sometimes. To take KH1 as an example: A lot of the rules were ambigious, not precise enough or straight up wrong (JJ requiring two different difficulties for Standard/Proud for example) so clearing up stuff like that is a good thing, even if it is something smaller.
Just like you voiced your opinion people voiced their opinions as well, I don't know what you are on about. The only backlash people voiced was on twitter and that only by a few persons.
Edit: Ok, KBM removed his message from here so my answer goes nowhere now but I'll keep it in here.
Sounds like it would be possible. Does anyone know anybody who has programmed a load remover for an emulator?
The slim is the fastest console. For Ps2 games it doesn't make that big of a difference on the exact model but slim is faster than fat.
Hi everyone I was thinking if there was a way to have load removers for emulators like for example pcsx2? Not necessarily one that scans the screen for certain colors or pictures (Like Black screens) but one that works similarly to load removers from a pc game.
New Bounty! If anyone manages to find a skip for the Luxord Ship race in KH3 they are awared 50$. A secondary way to aquire this bounty is to find a way to consistently finish the Luxord race blindfolded as it seems to be impossible to finish. So if anybody finds a consistent blindfolded strat they can aquire the bounty as well. If you want any insight on what has been found by now you can message bubzia as he has been on the forfront of blindfolded KH speedruns.

Ok, question got answered.
Another question: Emulator doesn't have the sword glitch apparently, at least it hasn't ever worked for me as it seems to be tied to the Frame Drops. So I think that category doesn't need to exists on the leaderboards I think.
You do realise that emulators are pretty inaccurate and with a better PC you could just have a lower loadtimes, right? :D The hardware "advantage" is more like a uniformity, not advantage.
Oh, so I guess between PAL and NTSC there isn't a real difference.
The loadings just look like on Emulator as they are pretty much non-existent. I don't mean it as accusation, I am just curios on how I lose that time :D
So I wanted to learn the speedrun and came across a few things I wanted to ask First of all, I compared my run to Garl_Memory's run and his loading times are way shorter than mine. What console model did you run this on?
