I have no intention to speedrun GTA2, but if anyone actually want to get grind optimized run for any of those ILs categories then he should be able to submit them. I don't think extra categories should be open until there's at least 1 run to for it. I read on the other thread that WordofWind did some "No EE glitch" run, but nobody ever did "Glitchless".
Not really a softlock but still ffzLancePls http://www.twitch.tv/gaeldemarseille/c/6090895
xsplit can do that easily, just click on both local record and broadcast on twitch in any order. I don't know about OBS. but remember this will require to encode 2 videos at the same time so it will obviously require more CPU usage
another solution could be to use dxtory and record in either, a lossless codec like Lagarith / MagicYUV / x264vfw or a lossy codec like x264 this will only record the game and not your splits/layout or what you say on mic
[quote]theirs runs for the game i mod (sadx) that get ignored for specific reasons for weeks at a time[/quote] why would you ignore runs ? watch it then accept or reject it.
1 day in the game = 24 minutes IGT = 27 minutes and 20 seconds RTA but as long as IGT stay consistent there's no reason to not use it
on PSP
I think ILs for the 'HD era' games is a good idea, since you can replay them from a menu. and it gives a time (at least for most mission IIRC), even though I'm not really interested in running those games myself.
I don't like the idea of using cheats before starting the run, I don't think it should be allowed, even if there's no way to verify it. Any% and 100% (mission objectives) should 2 valid categories for every missions
this is why VC timing method is bad twitch.tv/fil_maj_rasz/b/594982622?t=26m05s
also we might find a way to skip the unskippable cutscene
is using the Sensitivity Fix (and lowering the ingame sensitivity during the run) still ok ?
I use that fix, but I set my sensitivity when I switch languages because I don't mind wasting a few seconds (I can easily improve my pb by 5 minutes so a few seconds is nothing), and I find loading a save "not legit". But I don't mind if someone does that.
a strawpoll isn't a good way to deal with this, a poll on the forum (like this one http://www.speedrun.com/gtaiii/thread/th1wm ) would be better, you would this who voted what, and maybe weight people vote (your vote should weight more than mine because I don't run the game, and maybe my vote should weight more than people that never ran any gta games)
here's what I thing about the DLCs, after re-installing GTA V on my PS3, as long as your ps3 in connected to the internet the latest update (with the DLC guns) will be downloaded then installed, without being connected to the PSN. For me, this shouldn't be considered as DLCs but as version differences (v1.17 vs 1.02 ....), if the gun are in your inventory not using them is arbitrary. I was told it was different on Xbox360 so I don't know . Pre-Order, Special Edition or Collector's Edition DLC should be banned in all case. if what zoton said is right ryedawg used the pre-order DLC to get $500k at the start, this should be banned. also the rail gun sound like NG+ to me and should be banned as well. (I'm not saying ryedawg cheated, he just pre-ordered the game, launch it as soon as it unlocked, did a run, slept and did another run. as anyone crazy enough to do 2 10h runs in one day would have)
you need a second monitor or to play in windowed mode
Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator isn't a tool that runs in the background while you're playing, but the official microsoft tool to create keyboard that you can install among all the others pre-install layout (like the classic english qwerty - USA or Dvorak...left or whatever). this shouldn't be controversial at all.
the safest way is probably to use "Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator 1.4" (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=22339) to create a layout where the WASD keys are replace with arrow keys or number or whatever that don't trigger cheats
is this race going to happen ?
from ractrot youtube video (youtube.com/watch?v=C2binCcTMZE) "Walk backwards against the platform, then jump into the marker and hold W. Note: Don't hold S when you jump, or you jump too far, you jump backwards automatically if 'S' is your last input."
I think you're supposed to jump at 'I'm sorry', and if you're still on the platform you can try to spam jump during the "asset completed" cutscene.
