dont worry. Everything is OK now.
We only accept this version:
You got caught with your hand in the cookie jar my friend.
@orchlon1 Dont you see that even if we would grant you that then eventually in the future JPN would become completly obselete on the "main board".
Can I just point out that most of these JPN runs are actually obselete runs because people have already beaten them with the EA version. So this competition you are missing out on barely exists.
So move the only 2 runs on the entire board (1US and 1EU) to the China tab? and then I guess change the names to PC and PC (JPN) ?
also I wanna point out that these 2 runs are the only nonjapanese/chinese Ive seen in like 4 years iirc
Im I understanding this correctly? cause it seems like you think there are loads of non japanese runs on the JPN board atm.
Emulators can be found in the Misc tab on the board.
We cant link you to copyrighted material on this site.
btw why dont you join our discord wink wink lol
@Orchlon How so? This change doesnt affect anyone at all in a negative way. The most retarded goes to the reason why and how China got added in the first place.
I remember steven used to do this for Claire A and iirc its not 100% consistant.
Safety strat is hold UP and LEFT. A more riskier way (and the fastest that I know of) is to hold LEFT during the stair transition and then hold UP as soon as you gain control over the character. That way you skip the double camera change and you wont get bit by misty (unless you didnt time it correctly). I never do this on console.

This run you had, it really tied the board together
If you run 1.11 with the US version then it is fully possible to get an unbeatable WR for the x.xx category when the competiton runs on anything but 1.11 with JP disc. unmodded or modded if its 1.11 it goes to the 1.11 category. Dont forget to show the driver and scph after the run since you wont get a lower placement then 3.
We import the japanese copy because its the fastest version. I dont believe for a second that the vast majority actually import the console from japan (which iv'e done for all my consoles), most people just have their current console chipped with a region free mod which the japanese are against cause its no longer consider original hardware which I agree with.
I really wanna see that Ebay link cause i've looked everywhere and I couldn't find 1 seller that actually bothered to type down the Driver version for a unmodded console.
Even if people could get hold of the 1.11 how would this solve anything? Japanese would be stuck with the US version of the game while the rest play the Japanese version on their modded 1.11s. Here is were the seperation between Region Locked and Region Free comes in across all platforms not just for the PS category which we managed to dodge.
From what ive heard 1.11 was never released in japan and japan doesnt do region mods. So first they wanted a subcategory across the board to seperate Region Locked and Region Free. Since 1.11 was the thing that started all this the RE2 mods and the japanese has agreed that seperating 1.11 was the best option. Also there has only been 3 people in the RE2 speedrunning history who has ever owned a 1.11 and it is pretty much impossible to find one to buy.
The PS category will also have a new rule. For people who achive a Top 3 time needs to provide proof of the Driver they used. Best way to show this is to softreset the PS2 after a finished run and go in to PS Settings to show the driver.
Ever downloaded a no-cd crack before? Antivirus programs classify these things as Trojans because they are made from an unknown "author".
Ranks will be the same. Except for PSP and PS Emu which will get a better rank because they get seperated.
There are more things that might happen to the board that the mods are still discussing.
Hi,
This weekend and me and steven are going to do some changes to the full-game leaderboard.
RE2 currently has 128 leaderboards in total were 30-40 of them are completly empty because of Hard Mode only existing on 2 versions. Platforms will be setup as Main Categoty tabs and Scenarios will have its own Subcategory. Like this:
The PSN Category is back but it will include an extra subcategory to seperate PS3 and PSP:
PS Emu and GC Emu will be under Miscellaneous tab.
Note that any runs that are submitted this weekend will take longer to approve and they might even be rejected. In that case just wait until the board is finished and submit the run again.
You can download the splits again. This was an old problem that has been fixed
