If you run GoW2 on PCSX2 PS2 Emulator, you need to show the emulator's console for your run to be accepted. Since this sometimes causes confusion on new runners, especially since the latest 1.7 update, I decided to create this mini guide to aid runners.
Version 1.6 and below
On versions 1.6 and below, showing the emulator is easier. After the run is finished, go to the emulator's menu and select Misc -> Show Console:
This window will open:
Scroll the entire text box from top to bottom (not so fast as to not miss any logs).
Version 1.7
Version 1.7 changed the menu's layout a bit, including the option to show console. Before the run is started, select Tools -> Enable System Console:
It's important that you enable the console before starting the run, as now the console only shows logs recorded after it's opened. An window similar to this will open:
After you finish your run, show this window and scroll the entire text box from top to bottom.
AetherSX2, a PS2 emulator for Android devices, is now allowed in speedruns. Runs made with it will be included in the PS2 Emulator categories. Similar to other emulators, to have your run accepted you will need to show the emulator's settings after the run is finished.
