Hey guys! Could somebody please tell me, what this was about?
Here a screenshot: (the marked one) https://ibb.co/dBoUDk
This is the link, it lead to: https://www.speedrun.com/run/454151
It was a run of the new DDA category before the route was finalized, and before the category was set properly on the LB.
The8bitbeast now made a proper route & run, hence why my run isn't there anymore. Also, categories have been updated, it is now Any% DDA.
Hope this clears it up :)
it was a mod messing with the categories to put the new route option on the boards. demo desync, read the rules for the category
DDA = Demo Desync Adventure
You should watch 8bit's run to see what it does, but basically it involves a few glitches before a run starts on Xbox to have it start in RBB directly, with all moves and a nice supply of consumables.
- When the intro music ends, there's a demo that starts after the fadeout. If you press start during that fadeout, it'll load the next demo (on Xbox, press 6 times to get rbb)
- When the first demo of a loop starts (usually MM, but manipulated with that other trick), if you hold any camera angle (right analog on Xbox), it'll "desync" the demo : it'll try to do the same sequence, but with a wrong camera angle.
Desyncing in the RBB demo results in Banjo dying, giving full control over that demo file (no notes/jiggys/hc), enabling us to start a run there and finish the game after a bit more than an hour.
ok, nice nice...but one last question: any no dda (i think the normal any from before?) is only 3 minutes slower than the new discovered dda...
no offense mate, but why the f¤¤k did your run take over 2h 40min? :D when its now (as a still relatively young category) already at 1h 8min...
The leaderboard changes have been officially completed! Thanks to Wedarobi, with the power of his scripting, we now have categories sorted by Console first (Nintendo 64, Xbox, Nintendo Switch) rather than category (100%, Any%, Any% Restricted, etc).
Here's a breakdown of everything else changed:
