I don't know how old this is, but I just saw that we can now run segments on console. This was an old request of mine, and while it was met with critcism before, I'm glad the mods were finally able to figure it out. Thanks to the mods for this.

I checked my savefile after completing Countryside (I want to run Blitz Play first), and I realize I have two weapons that are banned. SMG on Michael, and Micro SMG on Franklin. So I have two questions:

• Why is SMG on Michael not allowed? You get it after killing the cops on Carbine Rifles. (I still dont know how I got the Micro SMG on Franklin. I am sure this savefile I used was after doing the normal speedrun route.)
• There is no way to drop weapons on GTA 5. If I shoot all my bullets so I dont have ammunition for a gun that is banned, is the run still valid?

Dont use it. It wont get invalidated unless u use smth that isnt allowed ( unless you go into the run with every weapon of ammunation owned, reloe said he will reject it then).And i wondered because of the smg too.

yea not sure how you got the smg from killing cops on carbine rifles, you never do that on pc. Additionally they're always holding carbine rifles in their hand so they should be dropping that instead? It might be a difference to console but really not sure. For Franklin maybe one of the enemies on long stretch drop a micro SMG. I checked pc savefiles and some runs but couldn't see anyone having a micro smg aswell which is why it's excluded. You possibly just ran over bodies that most people don't is my best guess.

But yea if you simply don't use those (or only after having visited ammunation during assassination since you could buy it there as franklin) you're good.

Thanks. I can confirm that the SMG I got from the cops on Carbine Rifles. The Micro SMG I still want to find out, mainly out of curiosity at this point. I will do what I said, I will remove all the ammo from these guns and not use them in the run.

actually I got things a bit confused. You are meant to have a micro smg as franklin. you always do during long stretch. I missed the coloring by 1 row in the spreadsheet, I had SMG listed as fine instead of micro SMG for franklin. So I changed that now. micro smg franklin allowed for blitz play, smg not. And for michael. Yes cops on carbine rifles actually drop SMG, you were right. It's just that in most runs you wouldn't pick one up naturally, so michael will stay disallowed for now.
