IDK about that maybe they count the frames where you hit the laser but I'm not the mod team so I don't know. For me savestates respawns me. (Don't use DLDTas)

I found out that if you have the DLDTas enabled, laser don't kill you or message you

It doesn't say banned when I hover over his name



The time starts when you reach summit 1, not the climb time

Also, it kind of looks edited (No offense)

WDYM its mean

BTW I have a 7:20 run with video evidence but im not sure if im going to submit it

The experiment gim has lore and I've been using it for like 3 months

It means that where the game thinks you are is not where it looks like you really are.

It says retro is banned when I hover over his name. Does this mean anything?

I think savestates causes you to not respawn at the game location but you can just use the built in savestates mod to teleport to each summit. (Also im at school so i can't see your video so this might be wrong.)



It doesn't matter about if you are synced or not synced but desynced gives an advantage of no lag and easier laser timings

The Gim doesn't matter as long as its not one of the banned Gims (I think). Also liking your own comment????????

I think mine is either The Experiment or Atom. Maybe Glass Half Full

Gimkit: Don’t Look Down

You probably have already noticed that the Don't Look Down leaderboards seem to have reset once again. This is due to a new gamemode having to be released, which has a feature that increases gim speed. The creator of the game explained that speed boosts were messing with this gamemode and making gims go way too fast, so unfortunately he had to remove them entirely due to all platformer physics being linked across gamemodes. Fortunately, Gimkit modder; TheLazySquid, who had recently created a mod that allowed tool-assisted speedruns for Don't Look Down to be created, managed to create a mod that returned speed boosts, and the previous physics in general. This mod will be allowed to be used in runs as a sort of "Downpatcher" for any people who would prefer to speedrun with speed boosts. I have created a step-by-step guide on how to install it in the resources section if anyone is interested. That is all.

Another Leaderboard Reset..?

Over the past few weeks, the moderation team has been hard at work with perfecting the boards of DLD. Here is a list of the important changes we have made to the boards.

# Major Changes

- **Allowing modifications**: Several modifications have been officially allowed to use in runs. They all use the DLD modder "Gimloader" and can be found in the [Resources](https://www.speedrun.com/gimkit_dld/resources) page (the TAS modification isn't allowed, of course). A guide to installing them into Gimkit can be found [HERE](https://www.speedrun.com/gimkit_dld/guides/fjx2v). What these modifications do is desync the Gim from where the server thinks it is, allowing you to do things such as play back your inputs or teleport to summits.
- **Release Physics is runnable again:** The Creative Platforming Patch mod has been changed to allow you to run Release Physics as well! This resource can be found [HERE](https://www.speedrun.com/gimkit_dld/resources/iyz30).
- **Pre-boosts Ban**: Pre-boosts have been banned from Current Patch Level runs, due to a lack of time save.
- **Major re-timing change**: ALL full game and level runs (except tutorial) now have the ending frame of the first frame of the edge of the last eye crossed the bumpiest/outermost part of the end platform of the suummort floor or climb complete floor. The starting frame has remained the same. All existing full game runs and current patch level runs have already been re-timed with this method, however some Creative Platforming Patch and Release Physics level runs are still in the process of being re-timed.
- **Mods Annotation**: The "Mods" annotation has been created to display if your run was modded or not, and if it was modded then displaying whether you used a mod that desynced the Gim or not.
- **Modded Board**: A modification board for this game has been created, which allows you to jump higher/move faster/fall faster, etc. It can be found [HERE](https://www.speedrun.com/gimkit_dldm).
- **Banned Gims**: Several Gims have been banned from the game to use, due to the accuracy required for re-timing being based on the eyes of the Gim. The globally banned Gims are Day One, Chompz, Tropicool, Josh, Raveena, Bonesy, Flurry, Libre, Gimbit (Green), Gimbit (Purple), Gimbit (Red), and Gimbit (Cyan). Captain Buck is banned in Full game runs and Summit 1: Emberwall Ascent.
- **Category Extentions**: Some subcategories/subcategory values have been deleted/created due to release physics being playable again.

# Minor Changes

- **Category Names:** Names of categories in Category Extensions have been modified.
- **Subcategory Value Name Change**: "Knockback Patch" has been renamed to "Current Patch" to limit confusion.
- **Rebrand**: The first-fourth place icons have been replaced with icons of a single terrain block of each Summit Floor.

# Moderation Team Changes

- ggnewoo has finally been removed as a Super Moderator!
- ImmortalWarrior0 and I have been made as a Super Moderator.

*If you have any questions about reasoning for changes, ask moderators.*
