It's called RTA for a reason. Real Time Attack. You can't pause a timer during a speedrun.

Yeah you can do that if you wish to do so 🙂

I've submitted Fallout 3 Any%, and I've improved a bit from the PB video I've attatched to my submission. My current PB video on speedrun.com was from an offline run, which means no commentary. I restreamed it and provide some here:

Since commentary is influencial on the submission cuts, I figured it would be a relevant thing to post in here, as you can't edit submissions.

I mean if it's as easy as it is with the drop, I dont see why anyone would do the ML route anymore, which essentially just gives everyone w/o the route 40 seconds for free. As much as I would love to get 40 seconds for free, it's kinda cheat if you ask me. But I'll go with the flow.

We can only really discuss what we can relate to and deal with. We have no way of ensuring that people arent using 3rd party software.

sv_cheats allow for commands that are considered cheating, like reducing recoil spray.

If you want to :^)

Oh I didn't say you accused me of cheating, more like us mods accusing you. There always has to be something around these here parts, it's pretty silly.

And yeah idk, felt like doing some gun range, but idk if I will improve the times I have now. It's just not really that fun, but you'll never know, might try in the future 😛

Also to comment on derrrpyy's post, enforcing a rule shouldn't mean obsoleting the entire board. That would be a shame, as there are a lot of runs on here. However, enforcement of new rules should mean, that runs past <date> should follow said rules, and if they don't, they'll be deemed invalid.

I don't actually mind this rule. Maybe add "cl_showpos 1" as well, to show velocity in case someone is using commands to speed up their game. Could also take it the step further and ask for a demo along with the run submission, so mods can watch the thing properly in their own game, and not from a youtube video. I'm not sure if you can use the console to check up on the sv_cheats status while in a demo, but it might be worth looking into.

I don't know why we have to shit throw so much, it literally doesn't matter. Kinda regretting going back to the boards already, there's always someone either being accused of cheating, blatantly cheating or attacking other people.

When it comes to AktisuMaru's first cheat suspected run, CtrlTab came to me while I was streaming some game and we discussed it a little bit back and forwards, I looked deeper into it and two mods found it very suspicious, so I took action.

Now, I get that I might've been harsh towards Aktisu or whatever, but as a mod I just sorta have to act. It's what we do. There is very limited dialogue between us in the moderation team though, and the way the case of Aksitu has been handled, has been extremely poor. So I guess take this as an apology from the mod team, at least from my end. I know that this wasn't processed very well.

You might be cheating and you might not be. You are doing what you can to prove your worth by showing the sv_cheats status, even though it isnt stated as a requirement in the ruleset. CS:GO is easy to manipulate with, and you can remove a lot of things, including the cvar promt. Remove that and have a keybinding for sv_cheats and it's almost undetectable.

Less shit, more fraggin imo.

Idk, I think if you net_graphos is 0, then it doesnt have a position on the screen kinda. I tend to go with net_graphos 3

Also, on a side note, I might be done with doing gun range runs, I feel like those times I've gotten now are quite respectable. We'll see though.

I should check the forums on this website a lot more, being called out and everything. In regards to your run, a moderator has accepted it, and I'll leave it at that. My personal opinion doesn't matter anyway.

I'm sorry, but this does not proof the legitimacy of anything. This is simply attempts recordings. The AK-47 has a specific way it behaves when sprayed. In order to control an AK, especially while running or falling, you need to get lucky for the most part. While standing, the AK has a set spray pattern, which will be the same every time, only varying very little. In your videos, you consistently run and spray with an AK, while having little to no spread. Your crosshair also doesnt move, which suggests that you do not counter act the recoil with mouse movements.

Strafing is all good and well, but there's a big difference between using an MP7 and an AK. This is not sufficiant.

I'm available in the day hours (CET) on both days. Shame Sly 1 didnt get in tho, but good to see HP2 make it, at least 😛

Game Name: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
System: PC
Category: Any%
Gameplay Estimate: 1:00
Sample run video:

Description: The run is fairly simplistic and easy to follow, yet during the platforming, is still a quite expansive experience for a speedrun. The run showcases a number of skips and tricks, as Harry Potter blasts through his second year at Hogwarts, in this puzzle/platformer classic, that is sure to cause some nostalgia amongst the people. This run was also showcased at ESA 2015.

Game Name: Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus
System: PS2
Category: Any%
Gameplay Estimate: 1:10
Sample run video:

Description: A fairly fast paced speedrun, showing off some pretty cool tricks and skips, whilst still staying true to it's genre, being a platformer. I currently hold the best known time for this category as of submitting, and I think the run has a certain charm. As with Harry Potter 2, this run was also showcased at ESA 2015.

So what do you do when the trader never spawns. Is there any way to manipulate it or is it random and a reset grind to even get him to spawn? I've heard creating a new character for each run makes him spawn, but if I can avoid going through child birth after each reset, that'd be appriciated.

I still haven't gotten a response from last time I PM'd pac somewhere. Where should I contact him? He doesn't respond to twitter messages.

Hi! Donated some money to the site, was wondering when I should expect the donater coin icon? My paypal has a different email to what my speedrun.com profile has, so it doesn't auto sync.

That does look very useful. It would save time in 100% as well. I will definitely look into this and if it's not too dodgy I wouldnt hesitate it implement it into runs. Great job, finding new shit in this out rescoursed ass game isnt easy!
