M18 CC+FPS re-timing for the Pin/ Cutscene glitch

Sometimes it can happen that in CC+FPS M18 the pins at the end are glitched out, or some animations are missing like the one that directs you to the cutscene. The problem is just till now it is not re-produceable stable what means you save time others can't save, but even when you do the CC+FPS M18 fly it is pretty unfair if your run is then invalid, so it will be re-timed by us Mods.

So now to the re-timing. First of all the re-timing requires from the same user a run of M18 with FPS counter to make sure his cutscene skip time is the same not lower by a lower frame rate, otherwise we can not re-time it.

With the animation skip to the cutscene: Then I go there take from the run that was working the last frame were he had the USE prompt on the last (double) pins. Then I take the duration from that till the end of his M18 Segment. Then I go to the run with the cutscene animation skip take here the last frame where you are able to see the USE prompt for the last (double) pins.

Example for the re-timing This M18 attempt had no glitches: This M18 attempt got that cutscene animation glitch: Last pin USE frame from the working one: (time step is 1:48.33) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/955222028019961937/1093442467250053161/image.png Last frame from the one with the cutscene animation glitch: (time step is 1:48.53) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1008101854288302090/1093441173298880583/image.png Now to the "maths" My final time on the working one was 2:37.74 so 2:37.74 - 1:48.33 = 49.41 (time from the animation - the end of M18) 1:48.53 + 49.41 = 2:37.94 --> final re-timed time Basically I did it like this End time of the working M18 - time from last USE input frame we can see on the last pin = time from the animation - the end of M18 Then time of the last frame were we can see the USE input on the glitched animation run + time from the animation - the end of M18 from the working run = final M18 time
