These ones are fine since they only provide information from the game (money, kills, etc.), people are already using it through different tools.

We just added another rule to the list which is:

➣ re4tweaks mod (NOT ALLOWED)

We've seen several runners using it on the recent submissions, this mod isn't allowed as it gives an advantage.

Hey guys,

So most of you probably know from the discord post already, but for those who missed it, we're going to do a tournament, we're not sure yet about the format as we need to list all the participants, if you want to participate please fill this form:

If you have a doubt about the times in general, it's always good to double check the google sheet leaderboard (you have the link at the top of this page next to the discord link or just on the left below my profile picture), that sheet has all the runs unlike srcom, I get questions about WR everytime and most of the time the actual WR isn't the one shown on srcom for whatever reason (the fact that people don't submit their runs or can delete it after submitting makes the whole website not reliable, but I guess more user friendly than a "bad-looking sheet").

Also about that run, I remember I retimed it a long time ago before it went to YouTube, downloaded the Twitch highlight and retimed it and got 4:42.983 (that's why the title has that) and then it uploaded to YouTube and somehow added 1 frame which seems to be 4:43.000 indeed, I would trust the original video though so I don't know.

Serie S is not really a version, it's more like a "sub version" inside Series X, just like you have PS4 and PS4 Pro under the PS4 leaderboard.
So you should submit your runs as Series X and then add Series S on the other question below on the submission page, it's more like a filter.

Hey,

Apparently the notification system isn't working right now (same for the new runs), so I just saw your message.
It's his 1:43:55 on RE4C, but there's no video. There's still a video from his 1:45:42 though (on Twitch and on YouTube as well), so it's the "official" WR. The 1:46:45 is just an old PB, but since there's still a video from his 1:45:42, the one from his 1:46:45 is not really useful.
But technically yeah, his best run (on Normal) is his 1:43:55 (the one on our website, I put his 1:45:42 video so you can click on it but with a 1:43:55 time on the board, because it's better than no video at all).

That being said, the NG Normal category is not really a popular category (anymore), so there are almost no (more) runs on it, which explains why the NG Normal WRs are not really good... (they should be faster than NG Pro runs, but NG Normal is not really an optimized category, it used to be back in the day, but with the new strats/glitches, the times are obsolete now).

The funny thing is that a guy found that glitch more than 1 year ago on PS3, but no one managed to reproduce the glitch (or even knew about this video). The setup was weird though, and his inventory was hacked, so yeah, but the glitch was real, he did it the same way as on the new video.

I tried to redo the glitch today and it worked, this time I opened the last door and of course we can go through and continue.
I did it in a different way this time so I decided to highlight this as well:

I tried to redo it after this attempt and it didn't work... But this might be "easier" than the first one.

But yeah as I said above, to have the door opened like that is easy on PS2(/PC 2007), it seems to be random on the other versions.
However, this might help:

What I do to have the door opened like this by the guy: at 00:00:01 I don't go left (quick turn or something), I go on the right so the red guy and the other one just run, then, the archer and the flail guy will always open the door like this.
I don't think it's possible to have (consistently) the red guy and his friend going away like that on the other versions since the red guy opens the door very early, but maybe the archer and the flail guy can open the door by running like this if we go on the right as I did at the beginning (even if the amount/type of enemies is not the same compared to PS2).

Edit: This time I wasn't moving, I was just waiting for the guy to open the door.

Edit 2: I tried to time it by removing the time when I wasn't moving and it saves about 48 seconds (NG+ PS2), compared to a perfect (or normal I should say) room (door stays open, no damage, etc.), so that's a pretty huge time save. Of course, this is nearly impossible to do at the moment, but just to see the possible time save.

Hey guys,

I was just practising my strat for PS2 in the last room of 5-4 and I found this ^^ :

I'm pretty sure it's a new glitch, I've never seen this glitch before, but I might be wrong.
The video is in French but we can easily understand and see what happened.

As you can see, we can almost skip the entire room by going to the final door (we don't even have to kill the red guy, but I killed him because of course I didn't know, I didn't expect to find this). I don't know why I didn't open the last door, probably because I'm dumb And probably because I couldn't retry the glitch after going through (of course I could have loaded a save ^^) The "open" appears on screen so I guess we can easily go through, we don't need a key for this door.

I tried to redo it multiple times but unfortunately I couldn't (I tried without Ditman and with a grenade as well but it didn't work), I thought it was easy to do because there are some glitches like that (with the door) in the game that are very easy to do, but apparently this one is very hard (unless we find a setup...), so I guess I was very lucky this time (as always when we find glitches ^^)

Don't hesitate to test it on your side and tell me, I don't think it's possible for all the versions though, but we can still try it.
Also, even if it's possible on the other versions, it might be harder to setup because on PS2 (and probably PC 2007) the 2 guys almost always open this door by running like that, so it's a particular strat.
