Illinois, USAOh okay, thanks! I was running on keyboard, so I couldn't get it to work.
Hey all. I just picked up this game last night and got what I thought to be a decent time. Comparing my splits to faster runs though, I don't understand how they're moving so fast! My umbrella split was at 22 seconds, and top runs get it around the 14-15 second mark. What makes them move so much faster?
If you're playing on PC, you can use the autosplitter that is integrated with LiveSplit. When you go to Edit Splits, there should be an option to activate autosplitter. If you're on console, then there unfortunately is not an autosplitter.
HUGE UPDATE I reached out to the dev, who goes by Egor Yakovlev on Steam, in response to his comment on the post. He replied, stating there's a way to still get the game without Steam and that copyright does not stand for the game as the company no longer exists! You can find the comments using the link at the beginning of the thread. In short, the game is distributable! There was a github link to the decompiler, which I have to learn to use or find someone who does. Expect a distributable copy of the game eventually!!
I can't find how to reset my progress for Challenge Mode. Anyone happen to know? Thanks in advance :)

ERH is still accessible to those who own it, but it's no longer available for purchase on Steam. As per copyright, DO NOT DISTRIBUTE THIS GAME. We cannot at this time allow the distribution of Egg Returns Home, as the developers have not given permission. If we do get any authorization to do so, an update will follow. Hopefully we can find a work around for new runners. If any ideas come up, let us know.
As long as you don't use any benefit that would be gained from collectables, you're fine. That's what we mean by "as if you started from a clean save file".
the current autosplitter is built for patch 1.10.2020.11.11. If you're not on that patch, the autosplitter won't work. You can downpatch your version using the resource in the Resources tab.
Personally, I'm all for a category split if it were presented. Emulator just has inherent advantages because it uses a controller as opposed to the native controls. It is my belief that if an emulator causes any advantage or does not properly emulate the game, it should either be banned or separated. Due to the amount of the community that runs emu, a ban is off the table.
Refer to Habble's explanation for the explicit advantages of emu, as I don't want to reiterate what's directly above me. But to answer your question... yes, there should be separate categories.
Converting hex to decimal, F1C8 = 61896. so I think I got it?
the ID number on Charmander is 61896. does that mean I missed F1C8?
Hey! Another new runner in the forum asking about TID manip for NSC. is there a way I can check my trainer ID on console? I think I did the manip correct, but I want to make sure I'm getting it in practice.
Nevermind! I figured it out, and I realize it was a lot easier than I had thought.
For anyone in the future looking for an answer, go to your Local Game files (you can get there through Properties on Steam), then just drop the file into that folder there.
I'm having issues figuring out how to use the save data. Can anyone help me?
I'm sure someone has mentioned this by now, but I'm not seeing my pending submissions. I know they haven't been accepted or rejected yet, and they aren't visible in the "Pending Actions" page.
