Is camera change allowed or banned?
And regarding Continous mode, can we agree on Traffic: 3 (done in previous runs from what I've seen) and put it in the rules as well?
Something I've noticed recently when verifying and watching other players' runs done on Saturn, and then tested myself on Mednaffen.
There's corners that are well known for having mandatory speed drops on Arcade + Emulator, turns that you can't make without either dropping from Max speed or going Gear Gacha.
One of those speed drops is Alps - last big corner: (timestamp 2:49)
One other example is the first sharp corner in Cloudy Mountain. Difficult to pull off on Saturn, but literally impossible on Arcade + Emulator without dropping speed or going Gear Gacha: (timestamp 2:19)
Thoughts and discussions are welcome
Since we just had a Saturn submission which used that system's exclusive difficulty setting: Extra Easy, that difficulty has been added as a seperate category.
I've also been notified that some of the previously verified Saturn runs have used that difficulty, so those runs have been moved from the classic "No Gear Gacha" category to the newly created "Saturn Extra Easy" and the runner has been notified and has agreed with this decision.
For newly submitted "No Gear Gacha" runs done with the Saturn version - if you're emulating, please try to use Rev A of the game. Other revisions might be accepted - but in that case, the shoulder-camping trick that is exclusive to Rev B is not allowed *
> The same principle as with the difficulty setting applies here - we want to make it fair and we don't want to give an advantage to one version over all the other versions that are allowed.
Lastly, the "show dipswitches/difficulty". I don't think runs should be rejected if a runner actually doesn't show it, but it's a good idea to encourage people to do so from now on, especially if the game is going to have more competition and tighter times at the top, going forward.
- I'm not 100% sure about each revisions characteristics, but I think the trick is present in Rev B, but not Rev A (I don't have access to the Saturn version at the moment, so I can't test it right away). If somebody is able to figure this out while playing the Saturn revisions - please let me know so I can adress it accordingly
I'm trying to use the XBox 360 pad. It seems that I successfully mapped the wheel (left right controls) and it seems it's analog.
But no matter what I try, I can't get both the gas and the brake pedals to work.
The thing that confuses me, for example for P1 Paddle 1 Analog 1 (or 2) I can get either a RT, a RT plus or a RT minus value
Is anyone playing this on GOTVG? Looking for coop partners, mainly for 1-35, but I'd do 36-70 at some point
If interested - find my discord on my profile and add me
Does anyone know how to reproduce that glitch that enables Ryu to enter the boss rooms faster? The glitch is seen in the TAS before every Boss fight except for the Act 3 Boss.
Probably wouldn't be viable in RT runs, but I'm curious to know what causes the glitch
Just started playing this amazing game. What controls does everyone use on something like a DS4? I've noticed in some of the runs that tapping the turbo rapidly is pretty important, so what layout would you guys recommend?
I just had a perfect stage 2 (took right on the first fork, new/overseas layout). By perfect I mean my speed didn't drop from 293 km/h from the beginning until the end of the stage. Still, I had a 55:21 time, which is one whole second more compared to the current WR (no Gear Gacha).
Am I missing something? Does cutting corners really save time? I mean it's 2D scrolling levels after all
Speaking off WR, the thing that he pulls off at the very start of his D route run is that "fast acceleration" trick, right?
