In order to help catch FPS-Unlocked runs, from now on, you are REQUIRED to show your FPS count! (Press Shift+F5 in Roblox to show it!) This rule only applies to PC users.

Note: All runs currently in queue (Up to Illuminatinate's run) do not have to comply by this rule. Any runs submitted after 13:36 GMT 19/02/2021 which does not comply by this rule will be denied.

I mean I understand why this is a thing but this is now an inconvenience for me and maybe others, because I used my speedrun as a completion video for my YT and the FPS on screen is just clutter in the video

this is so stupid, does this mean I have to re-record my SoP WR just because i didnt show my fps?

I mean, this should have been a rule for a long time now.

this is so stupid, does this mean I have to re-record my SoP WR just because i didnt show my fps? Yeah

I mean I understand why this is a thing but this is now an inconvenience for me and maybe others, because I used my speedrun as a completion video for my YT and the FPS on screen is just clutter in the video It only takes up a small part of the screen, and it's transparent. Taking up a small bit of your screen is, in my opinion, much more better than potentially letting FPS-Unlocked runs into the leaderboards if there's no ladders that are usable to detect FPS Unlocker runs.

really its a good rule i dont know why people are complaining, its good

im completely fine with the new rule, except the fact that people may get lag spikes from recording, and the only solution from that is fps unlocker (which is me basically)

you better hope people are reading this

That's why I did an @ everyone in the server, stickied this forum thread and added to the rules, @seez . @Lisij_Malchik , chances are you have a built in recorder into your PC which you can use to record. If you're on a newer version of Windows, you can press Win+G to bring up the menu.

Ok, im glad i saw this lol. otherwise i would be like "why me runs go brr :("

Could the rule be potentially start taking effect slightly later so people who haven't submitted pre-existing runs can? I think its a good rule but it's unfair to people who already have legit runs and just haven't submitted them yet and now can't because seemingly without warning, this rule exists

And how are we supposed if they were recorded before the rule?

Why do you care so much if someone used FPS unlocker? It doesn't speed up the game, and if someone is genuinely using a 240hz monitor, how would you tell that from an unlocked run? This is honestly just a kindof dumb rule, and you REALLY need to say this in a way that makes it more noticable. I was just about to submit a run of ToN with coils and then read this rule.

1. unlocker allows you to make more precise and longer jumps bc more frames and also more frames = changes physics

2. how exactly could he have made this more noticeable? he pinged everyone in the jtoh speedrunning discord server, changed the site rules, and stickied a post in the forums. i get that this generally does not seem like enough, which is actually the reason i opposed this rule getting in (outvoted 2-1 😭) but still what are you supposed to do

@4d9r

1. FPS unlocker gives an advantage to timing, because more frames.
2. 240hz monitors won't affect physics at all on their own, FPS unlockers do, though. (I can say this myself, I have one.)
3. Trusses act completely different with FPS unlocker.

this rule could be made lighter but only requiring fps to be shown before or after the run. during pauses in player movement, restrict the mouse from leaving the screen and IF IT DOES leave the screen, require fps to be shown during the alotted time period

No.
