Need for Speed: High Stakes (PSX) - Forums - information rules

You could set the rules yourself, if you want ;) Just say so and I will make you a mod, cause I've never even played PS version.

Yeah, people here generally dislike segmented runs due to different concept of the site compared to SDA, which is now pretty much dead. That also basically means there is no other place to go if you want to submit a segmented run and the mods are jerks and won't accept your run, but as long as I'm the supermod here, you're free to submit any segmented runs you do, even if the category doesn't exist yet. I'll just create it. I'm oldschool myself, you know ;) It's not the best solution, but I really don't see a better option for now.

Livestreaming is not necessary and hardly ever will be, even on this site (although some games require you to stream, like Portal, but fuck that honestly. It's stupid.)

As for that TD LM 24hours runs, I honestly never ever played it before (stefeende requested the whole series and then gave me supermod. I only played the main games in the series - 1-6.), so I can verify it "blindly", otherwise I'll just make you a mod and you can do it yourself.

SDA is pretty much dead, even if you don't believe it. It saddens me, but unfortunately that site got stuck in 2005 and never really improved much. Speedrunners, on the other hand, did move on and created speedrun.com, which is far better in many cases. Unfortunately for you, most supermods don't allow segmented category, but I've heard there might be an update of speedrun.com, which will allow mods to create multiple leaderboards (not just level and full-game), so there is still hope.

"Even you Ewil you allow segmented runs, but on the same site speedrun.com there are other leaderboards that are inflicted and represents your board with banned segmented runs. so or so this can not work good in the future."

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Are you saying I ban segmented runs in some game I mod? Like I said, even if segmented category doesn't exist, just submit your run and I'll create it. It's not created by default because not many people do these runs.

You can submit unoptimized run, if you want.

"This is currently possible, a update is not necessary. I was super-mod for my self it is possible to create separate leaderboards."

Never heard about that, never seen that on other leaderboards, and never seen an option like that in the games I mod. How?

I don't know the exact details of Alien: Isolation runs, but from what I know, they crouch clip using very high fps and v-sync, so it's PC only trick.

"I try to say all Leaderboards here represent one site and each and one of them has there own rules and some has no rules. This is a bit anarchy every mod for him self with own rules."

Yes, that's basically the main difference between SDA and speedrun.com. It's community/mod-managed, not admin-managed. It would be impossible for site admins to manage all leaderboards, although I personally think there should be at least some general rules for all games, because some games have a really stupid rules (modifying game files, using unofficial version, using mods etc.)

There are unfortunately many runs that suck and the runner literally tells his audience he hates the game when something doesn't go his way. Just don't watch that run or simply improve it :)

Lol yeah, I found your run.

I never uploaded your run anywhere and I never betrayed you. If you think I did, then I apologize, but that was NOT my intention. I only asked you if what you said "emulators are faster" is backed up by some evidence or if it's just a made up opinion, because I hate when people do that, and I was actually really curious if it's true or not.

Alien: Isolation - well, if it really can't be changed within the game itself (via console or options menu), then that's another game on speedrun.com that traded legitimacy for speed :( There's more games on speedrun.com with "shady" rules like this.

I'm not sure what's the point of posting the download links to forum, but not on the leaderboards, but if that's what you wanna do, then do it. Btw, I don't use ICQ anymore, but you can contact me on steam or discord.

It was opened just in case someone decided to submit a run done on PS version, which is different than PC (same as NFS3 or 5).

Yeah, rules are not set up yet. I have not played it at all, but I've seen it.

Grim is working on Shift.

I added your runs, but can you please check all of them? I don't remember in which mode they were made etc. Thx

Nope, you never uploaded AQ. I'll try to setup NFS4 PS leaderboards from the information you gave in the first post.

I think I'll have to play it myself. Maybe on easter holidays.

Can't you just upload it yourself to archive.org? It's pretty simple...

I have no idea why you can't upload it yourself to archive.org if you've already done it to 1fichier and share-online. I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna upload runs for you anymore. This community recently grew to such extent that it takes me quite a lot of my free time to verify/mod/update rules/categories.

I created speedrun time on this game and look a this.

I know that more better time ;)

He/Him

That's right. Only a tournament is going on.

In the near future I'm going to go "Special Events" and get gold anywhere, just like in the "Tournament".

He/Him

This is the best option you can find.

I've already recorded with the camera before, and time has been counted, also if someone appreciates the efforts, not just on the style of driving and how fast this mode can go but also on the fact that I had trouble converting a WMV movie to MP4, by What did I have to gymnap for all the angles that are possible?

If moderators and all Speedrun.com members will review my material and will accept it positively, then it will be good, if not unfortunately, I will have to go higher up to the highest plenipotentiaries who deal with this site, which examines the times / records In the titles of the games.
