Hi people, i'm starting to get into portal speedrunning but there's something i can't do that bothers me. When i open the game i can't put the splits on top of the gameplay, so i can't know what my current time is. When i alt+tab it just goes to steam with the LiveSplit open, but i dont know how to do it, can someone help me? Thanks everyone
On Steampipe, (The version opened on Steam) just change your settings ingame to 'Run in window (No border)' in your video settings. If this doesn't work add -noborder to your game launch options in the Steam client.
If you're on Unpack, right click your portal.bat file and edit it in Notepad. Then paste the following:
@Echo off
cd "%~dp0"
call SST/update.bat
echo 400 > steam_appid.txt
start hl2.exe -game portal -novid -console -noborder -window -high
It was recently discovered that it is possible to set your mouse sensitivity to a value so high that the game considers it infinite, leading to several new glitchy techniques being discovered.
The rules have now been amended to ban these new techniques in both Inbounds No SLA Legacy and Glitchless.
