Unfortunate. Alrighty then, we'll be getting our sub 1:30 this weekend and then promptly drop this game haha. It was worth a shot. ;)

So.... this game is pretty fun to run.... except for the 40 minute autoscroller smack dab in the middle of the run. Just like Super Mario Sunshine has their ~6 to 7 minute long cutscene at the start of the game with just a little bit of gameplay sprinkled in, I would like to vote to have both Arcadia City and Arcadia Outskirts be counted toward the run with a time we choose acceptable for both levels, but not actually have to play either mission in a single segment attempt.

Arcadia City is literally just the first ~11 to 12 seconds of gameplay every time then sitting there for 20 minutes doing nothing, and Arcadia Outskirts is literally the same time every time as long as you get the Covenant base (and let's face it, who doesn't get the base in time really?). Frenchie and I just got done with our first full run (terrible CH10 and CH15 might I add haha) but man, the 40 minutes of waiting is atrocious.

I'd like to hear your guys' thoughts on this subject. We figured we'd at least mention it to start the conversation. Thanks guys! :)

Probably already mentioned somewhere in this thread, but every time I submit a coop run it switches the players around. For example, if there are 2 players, player 1 becomes player 2 and vice versa. Iirc, submitted a 4 player one once and player 1 became player 4 haha. :P

I created a new autosplitter for the game on Steam. I tested it up to the end of Mission 04 and also had Frenchie test it. You may have to go in to Mission 01 first, resign back to the main menu, then actually start the run for it to start splitting correctly. Had some weirdness with it not working the first time for some reason.

If there are other bugs, let me know! :)

Is there a list of all the differences that Coop has from Solo?

So far we have noticed that on Mission 06 we start with 400 supplies instead of 800 like on Solo and on Mission 08 if we skip killing all the beginning units (on PC) it softlocks when we try to rescue both Elephants at the same time. I went in grabbed both Elephants on Solo without killing the enemies at the beginning and it didn't softlock.

Thanks!

Sup guys! I was wondering if you were planning on adding any Coop IL's on the board. Frenchie and I have been learning Coop and have been doing IL's to start before attempting SS. We have recorded quite a few already, but it looks like it's only Solo for the IL learderboard.

Thanks! Auddy

That's kewl mane. Just figured I'd throw it out there, especially since the New Game boards have a similar one column style. :)

Hiya, just wanted to suggest that the mods delete all RTA times on the NG+ run submissions so that only the IGT column will show on the NG+ boards. It will make it look a lot cleaner. Also, if you will go into Edit Theme and check the "Fit to screen" option for the background image it will look better. When I originally made the current layout for this RE5 site the "Fit to screen" option wasn't available back then.

Have a good one!

8/23/2018 11:58pm Currently working on a solution for the tactical reset in 3-1 for changing frame rate after Ndesu fight, because right now it adds the time you reset when it shouldn't. I already changed the code and will test it tomorrow.

Edit: 8/25/2018 1:28am The code is working and has been updated in LiveSplit.

@Spartanfinix117 Link is alive.

For any runner that plays on the Original XBox, you NEED to remove your clock capacitor (if your model has it).

Taken from ChrisderWahre on the JSRF forums (thank you Chris): It's a capacitor that is famous for leaking on the XBox Revisions 1.0-1.5 (the cc of 1.6 can't be removed and doesn't leak, tho 1.6 sucks because of video encoder)

Identify your xbox revision: http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=367210&seqNum=2 if its a 1.0-1.5 it has to be removed, because it can and WILL leak.

What does happend when it leak? The capacitor leaks ACID that kills the board, and you can basically throw it in the trash because it can't be repaired.

A good guide to remove the clock capacitor:

Cheers, Chris.

We have sort of separated PS4 Pro from regular PS4 on RE4C using comments (as we know the Pro is much faster), but since we had no runners on X1X we didn't know if it made a difference or not. We will comment those as well on the site, thanks!

p.s. GameCube USB has the most consistent and fair loads of any console, with the differences between runners' loads being only a couple frames at most on the ones we've tested.

The autosplitter / load remover works for 1.0.2, 1.0.6, and 1.1.0. Unless there has been a new patch since March, it should work.

Yeah.... grinding for grenades sucks. Haven't found a good trainer yet to help in the item modifier process, and the game's code is terrible. Was gona make an autosplitter for the game until I realized the code was basically unusable haha.

Yall got any good/fast way to setup invens for NG+, such as trainers? Got several people in the WoT squad needing to make/modify invens. Thanks!

6/30/2018 6:20pm The autosplitter now also works with the Games For Windows Live / Split Screen versions of RE5. You have options of Steam 1.1.0, Steam pre patch, and GFWL DX10 in the Settings menu of the autosplitter.

@JC the timer has been updated for a month. You just need to delete the old one that LiveSplit sees. I'm the only one with the Github login, so when you guys fixed it way back I updated the file.

@annes Edit Splits -> Deactivate the autosplitter -> Go to your LiveSplit Component folder and delete the "RE4CentralSteamTimer2.asl" file -> Edit Splits -> Activate the autosplitter -> Done.

Are there lots of differences from the original game that make this remake slower to speedrun?

Apparently the code never updated on LiveSplit's GitHub. I just realized the file I edited was not the one linked to their asl xml file, whoops. Try it again my friends.

You'll want to navigate to your LiveSplit folder, then the Components folder, and delete the old "RE5SteamFullGameIGT.asl" file, then deactivate and reactivate the autosplitter in the Edit Splits section of LiveSplit.

Here is a LiveSplit layout file you can use for the NG+ category. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1GhBPbO3VDcUZZoOijEqW206coq5Aem-Y

I have fixed the autosplitter for 1.1.0, but have yet to do a full run with it. Once I make sure it is solid I will upload it to LiveSplit.

Edit: 3/16/2018 10:48pm The autosplitter has been edited. You will have the option to choose between 1.1.0 and the pre patch version inside the settings of LiveSplit. Just go to Edit Splits, then next to the activate button for the autosplitter there should be a button that says Settings. Just use the check box to choose if you want 1.1.0 or don't want 1.1.0. If the button is not there, try deleting the RE5SteamFullGameIGT.asl file from your LiveSplit Components folder stored on your computer.

Submitted the new autosplitter to LiveSplit today. I'll let you guys know when it's up and running. Fixed the IGT for each segment and it actually adds them up correctly at the end. Pretty neat.

Edit: 1/19/2018 6:45pm The new autosplitter should be live now.
