Category Extensions
2 years ago
Michigan, USA

Greetings everyone. I was wondering if anyone agreed with adding a couple of category extensions such as handgun only, shotgun only, etc. I’ve noticed RE2 and RE3 have them and it is quite fun to do on the original RE, and would love to see some runs and submit my own. If there already is a category extension just ignore this lol I just don’t see one. Have a good one everyone ✌️

Hello there.

Those category extensions already exist. There's a separate board for them over at https://www.speedrun.com/re1ce and they include:

NG+ Handgun Only Shotgun Only V-Jolt% (Make and use V-Jolt on Plant 42) All Boss Kills (Make Yawn 1 run, kill Neptune, both phases of P42, Black Tiger, and both versions of Tyrant) Helipad Tyrant (Pretty much save barry/rebecca) Zoolander% (No left turns or using left on the Lab PC)

And you can do all of those in either Original or Arrange mode! :)

Also how do I prevent Barry from using the flamethrower on P42? If you don’t mind me asking.

You have to trigger cutscenes in a specific order. At the start of the game for All Boss Kills you will go up the stairs in the main hall once Barry leaves it and go into the first door on the right, then turn around and leave, then go to Forrest. That will trigger a cutscene with Barry where he shows you Forrest's body and gives you the bazooka. Triggering that cutscene will make it so that another cutscene will happen in the Guardhouse where you listen to Barry and Wesker talking in one of the rooms. When you go in right after that cutscene you'll get a cutscene with Barry where he leaves to "Get some fresh air and be eaten by a monster." Because that cutscene triggers he won't come to help Jill with P42 and she'll have to fight both phases of it.

Thanks for the pointers man. I got frustrated and gave Chris’s all boss run on arrange mode a try afterwards and Rebecca came in. I must be doing these incorrectly. I’m going to give it another shot tomorrow. Thanks for the info bud. 👍

Rebecca comes in if you say Yes to her at the beginning of the game. You want to say no so you fight both phases yourself. Also don't forget that you need to save her as well in Mansion 2 by going into the hall that leads to the save room you meet her in and turning around and leaving. :)

Okay good to know! On arrange mode I didn’t see her at the beginning in the save room I came across her sitting with Richard, but I’ll change my route up. Is it any different if you tell her she can’t practice? Lol or does it have to be when you first see her in the save room. I really appreciate the help man 😃

I haven't done a run of Chris ABK yet. No one has really XD It has to be when you first see her in the save room. You do need to say yes to her practicing though, since saying no leads to the same result but just slower.

It’s a pretty interesting run for sure! Whenever you decide to try it it’ll be stoked to see your run 😃 hopefully I can finish one tomorrow. Have a good night man

This is the problem with SRC's new design for the leaderboard categories. It hides everything after like the first 3 or 4 categories... I hate it so much. :(

I was very confused because I easily found the category extensions for several other RE classics and was wondering why the very original didn’t have any, but thanks to Raclesis for providing the link I can now work on submitting some runs.
