Sounds like it shouldn't be allowed; then again how can one verify this? Maybe the VOD has to include starting from the main menu or something?

Depends, does it consistently give you the same questions after loading the save? Or are they still randomized?

This is a delicate one; on the one hand it is the fastest known time with video proof (and there are quite a handful of times faster on the vv ps4 board, although there seems to be no vid of those), on the other hand as far as I know there is no consistent way of replicating this. We'll leave it on the board for know which of course doesn't mean we could take it down whenever we decide to change our minds. Quote from Riko on this matter "We have no evidence that it was patched out and I doubt we ever will unless people learned how to do it."

It's still achieveable if the game gets rolled back to before the last patch was implemented - as we want the boards to be compatible with the latest patch, we banned the Nitro Clip for this TT.

Source: literally the rules of the hot coco IL board

Yes, we are aware of this. As stated in the rules of literally any category, FPS have to be capped at 60 to ensure fair competition.

Yes, so far only the Crash 1 and 2 boards are manually filled with the WRs, I'll have a go at the crash 3 ones later. I made that post prematurely to be fair, but I wanted to do it before I forget again

As of yesterday, "we have added Individual Level (IL) Leaderboards. The FPS thing has appeared to screw over the official Crash leaderboards, so for the sake of accuracy we have chosen to start up our own, as IL runs of NST have proven quite popular." (quoted Riko here). I looked through youtube and compared with the "official" VV leaderboards so the IL section should now have all top times which are proven by a video. If I missed anything in that regard, feel free to tell me.

"I give up and here is a wall of text explaining why"

Hey, glad you decided to learn speedrunning this game. Sadly, from your description there's not much I could tell you to help - but if you post a video of a failed attempt at those zips, then we can try to concretely help you out here. Also feel free to join our Prince of Persia speedrunning discord server (linked in the sidebar) as you'll reach more people there than on this forum and also you'll get quicker help.

Yes, as the load remover only needs the game feed, the port shouldn't affect it at all

As this seems to not be a thing so far, there now exists a Daedalic Speedrun Discord! Here the link for anyone who cares enough to join: https://discord.gg/YVRZ2ju

I'd like to request having Ivyiss removed from the mod list for Deponia 3 and Deponia The Complete Journey. He requested those to be added to the site around 2 years ago but hasn't done anything for the game eversince; also he hasn't visited this site in a year. Thank you in advance.

Since this run is not on the board yet I guessed I point out that epicdudeguy ran this at Hekathon 2018 and got a 28:26

@SlaaZy Here's the hobsliding tutorial by Riko

Reminder that this site doesn't support BBCode anymore but Markdown instead (as of November 2017, cf. here )

Both these things would be very much appreciated, thank you in advance!

On behalf of the Prince of Persia community I'd like to request having super_creature removed from the Prince of Persia 1 mods. He requested PoP1 to be added to the site around 2 years ago but hasn't done anything for the game eversince. He also is not and has never been affiliated with the community in any way but since he's a super mod (due to having requested the game), we sadly can't handle this ourselves. Thank you in advance.

By pure chance I just saw that the game TG16 version of the original Prince of Persia got added to the site roughly 5 months ago. As one of the moderators of the Prince of Persia series page however, I have to ask why we were not contacted by the site staff when this request came in. It's basically our only purpose to manage and add games related to the game series we're assigned to.

Something similar happened around a year ago when someone requested the Prince of Persia mobile games (originally requested as Prince of Persia: Revelations by Gustavo.Predador), which we luckily saw right after it got added to the site and could handle, respectively integrate into the series right away due to the help of the former full mods Gyoo and ROMaster2. By all due respect - things like this on one hand make me question why there are series mods in the first place and on the other hand, result in extra work for us as well as for the staff (e.g. integrating the game into the series, bringing the game page up to series standards etc.) eventually anyways.
