In relation to the restructure of the TR123R board, the Restricted category for TR3R was removed and ported onto the main board here: https://www.speedrun.com/tr123_remastered?h=tr3-glitched-restricted-pc-all-any&x=mke1x4n2-yn2kk90n.q8kpeyrq-onv5re7l.192zx4jq-789v003n.lx5dep41-e8m79re8.lx5xjd41

From now on, you can run every TR3R category (NLNM, Crystals, Pacifist and areas) as Restricted too! Happy running!

TR123R update post: https://www.speedrun.com/tr123_remastered/news/q6kp9jx7

Context: https://www.speedrun.com/tr123_remastered/news/z34qolx8

There is currently no way to differentiate between a regular level or the Challenge Mode by using the 'Restart Level' feature for Deathrun submissions, this is why Deathrun submissions using said feature have been prohibited since the patch before last, unless evidence is provided that you

• loaded into the level beforehand. (Which defeats the purpose of using 'Restart Level')
• are playing on an earlier patch. (Visual proof through obvious differences between patches, example: The menu screen being black)

We discourage the use of 'Restart Level' from now on to avoid confusion regarding Deathrun verifications. Loading in from the former level is still a valid way to prove you are not using the Challenge Mode.

Thanks to @burn_sours' Permadamage mod we are able introduce the Permadamage categories to the TRRCE boards! You can find them in each of the dropdowns for TR1-5R.

Permadamage is a category where no meds or loads are allowed to be used, as well as keeping only one health bar for the entire game. Lara's health does not regenerate in between levels, adding to the difficulty of a classic NLNM run.

Thank you for everyone who gave their input in the Tomb Runner Discord, as well as to burn who was super helpful and even added features to make the verification process easier for us: With the newest release it will show that only the Permadamage mod is enabled, as well as providing a unique hash to show the footage wasn't edited. Example:

You are welcome to submit older runs that you already finished before this category was added to the boards, but going forward we will only accept burn's latest release, so for future runs please make sure your burn's mod is always up-to-date.

Extra info: With this latest release, burn's mod is now open source. Please check out all the cool things you can do with it, and do get involved if you can. Reporting bugs or coming up with suggestions helps a ton! Important thing to remember: Only the Permadamage feature is currently allowed for submissions to the boards to those categories. Other features/mods are still prohibited.

The TRRCE leaderboards for 4-6 have been added, and the name, the cover and the link to the board have been updated! Feel free to submit your runs to fill them!

Before submitting, please read the rules. Whenever you submit TRRCE runs from now on, choose the correct game and version from the dropdown menu.

If you have any questions or feel like the leaderboards are missing a category you ran or you want to run, please let us know in the Tomb Runner Discord.

Twitch is making a change to their storage.

Speedrun.com news post about it.

TL;DR: Starting April 19, 2025, if you have more than 100h of Uploads/Highlights saved: Twitch will begin deleting them, starting with the least-viewed videos.

At this time, admins and verifiers have jointly agreed:

We will no longer accept videos hosted by Twitch for speedrun submissions.

If you are submitting a new run:

Use an alternative site to host the video.

Existing Runs with Twitch VOD Links:

This Google Sheets file was accurate as of Feb. 19th, though a small amount may have changed.

If you are a Runner in the list, please take action to ensure your runs are preserved -- we recommend doing this even if you are currently comfortably below the 100 hour limit.

Step 1:

We recommend affected runners to install, configure, and use the SpeedrunRescueScript .

This tool allows you to download your Twitch VODs in bulk, making it an efficient option to save your runs. If you don't want to use or trust this tool, you can otherwise perform the process manually.

The tool's readme gives detailed instructions for installation and configuration.

Step 2:

After you download your Twitch VODs, upload them to another site of your choice (YouTube, for example).

Step 3:

Gather information for your affected runs in this format:

RS: [Verifier], [Original Submission Date], [Old Link], [New Link]

Example:

RS: Midge, 2024-12-25, https://www.twitch.tv/videos/..., https://youtu.be/...

Step 4:

Choose one of the following:

1. You may directly edit your existing runs on SRC to update the video link. This will cause your run to be resubmitted, so a moderator / verifier will need to accept your run again. Using the above format should make this quick.
2. You may message in Discord (DM a verifier or post in the game's channel) with a list of run information (same format as above). A verifier can perform the link edits without causing the runs to need to be re-verified.

If you happen to know any affected runners that haven't seen this post, feel free to forward this or otherwise notify them. We will re-evaluate the remaining affected runs closer to Twitch's policy activation date, and we will consider additional actions, if needed.

Again: we recommend taking action even if you are well below the 100 hour limit for Twitch VODs. We know this procedure can be tedious if you have a lot of runs to edit. For those cases we strongly recommend using the SpeedrunRescueScript. Sadly, Twitch's policy change affects all of speedrunning, and we hope that this solution is the most optimal for everyone!

The TRRCE leaderboards are open, so feel free to submit your runs to fill them!

Before submitting, please read the rules. If you submit runs that are a few weeks old make sure to pick the correct version from the version dropdown.

If you have any questions or feel like the leaderboards are missing a category you ran or you want to run, please let us know in the Tomb Runner Discord.
