autosplitter not working
6 years ago
New York, USA

i have my splits comparing against game time. i have the source unpack and i'm thinking the main problem is that it does not have the demo directory. (im using livesplit)

It can help newcommers to know what was the solution and how you solved it. Don't you hate when you have a problem, then you look a forum on google, and the answer is "nevermind, fixed it" ?

New York, USA

It seemed to have automatically started, so I'm not sure what happened.

New York, USA

It stopped working again, so I would like if anyone could help

saying "autosplitter doesnt work" doesnt provide much background, so im gonna go through some basics.

make sure the autosplitter is actually enabled (right click livesplit -> edit splits -> activate)

once thats out of the way, go into the settings of sourcesplit (right click livesplit -> edit splits -> settings) make sure its actually enabled, set it split every map and such.

im gonna assume you have this done already, so ill leave some quick questions so someone doesnt have to later:

does the timer automatically start at the start of the run/ end automatically at the end of the run?

is livesplit actually capturing game time, or is the timer still capturing loads EVEN when you manually start the timer?

what version of livesplit are you using?

yes, when the timer does work, it ends and starts correctly, i have a 17:42. i have my splits comparing against game time, so when i start the timer it just turns the first split blue. I recently redownloaded live split hoping it would fix the problem, so i am using the latest version.

Did you compare against Game Time and have u downloaded the newest version of livesplit? check that first if u do something else

New York, USA

yes, i think just deactivating the autosplitter and then activating it again has been fixing the problem

In both portal and hl2 when I press activate it just says that the given key was not present in the dictionary. I'm on version 1.8.13

Audio requirements

Starting today, runs that require video proof (top 25) and runs beyond that where video is the only form of proof, now require audio, as recording audio for only the game is now a native OBS feature.
