Here are a few examples of other games placing in-game cheats into a separate category. https://www.speedrun.com/spyro1#Cheat https://www.speedrun.com/gtamemes#GTASA https://www.speedrun.com/bfbb#Cheat
You'll see these cheat% categories often have faster completion times than any%.
I believe it would be best for our community to follow suit by: a: Continuing to disallow in-game cheat codes in Any% b: Introducing Cheat% as a separate category that allows cheat codes.
I will be renaming the "Any% (Shift+V Allowed)" category to "Cheat%" today. The instant credit warp cheat code will be disallowed in this category as will trainers and 3rd party tools.
I'd be receptive to adding this as a new category. Are there any runs of this route available to view?
Apologies, I did not have notifications turned on. I have also added Prolix as an additional moderator.
I wasn't aware of the combination either.
Shift+V to skip the biker fights and destruction derby will not be allowed in the Any% category. (Keeping consistent with the speedrun rules of the original game). I have added this to the list of rules for Any%.
A new speedrun category has been created. Any% (Shift+V Allowed). Please submit your run to this category.
