Well because you didnt submit your run with the loads removed, and because your run is 41st we wont be removing your load times ourselves, if you want your load times to be removed remove it yourself and submit the run again.

As far as I am aware, you can't use a Load Remover on console. The load remover will only work properly on PC. Hope this clears things up for you :)

thank you InstaSim, would you happen to know a program i could use? i've tried using livesplit but it doesn't appear to remove it. unless i'm doing something wrong. trying that on console would be difficult. i do use a PC to stream so if there's another program accessible, i will definitely remove them myself. and matt, if you could suggest something actually helpful as a mod can do instead of throwing out instructions, i'd appreciate it.

Split at begin of run in editor, stop at end of run in editor -> final time with loads

Remove the following loading screens with a proper frame perfect movie editor software (could crack Sony Vegas 13, google programs):

  • After keyboard to prison loading screen
  • Begin of sewer
  • Begin of male ward
  • Just after sprinklers, before courtyard
  • Middle of courtyard
  • End of female ward
  • Begin lab

.. Then just remove the loading segments you just splitted in the editor, drag the gameplay parts to eachother, look at final time and that's your time w/o loads

.. Or go easy and count up the times of the just splitted loading screens and remove that of the final time

much appreciated, StreamingFire. I'll try that. The loading screens sometimes varies so if the first option doesn't work, I'll try it manually.

You asked why your time with loads was the same as the time without loads, all i did was tell you why SeemsGood

LiveSplit, imo, is the best Splits Program anyone can use, but Auto Splitters and load removers wouldn't work on consoles regardless. I know someone in another community has tried to make a load remover for a console game, but it's confusing. Best thing to do to remove loads is as the Moderators have suggested, to just count the load times and remove them.

matt, while your answer gave a specific reason, i was confused as load times were removed the first time. must've been a complimentary gesture as i wasn't informed that it should be done manually. prawnik: the implication was the answer came off dickish given the information i just listed above, which maybe i should've clarified in the initial post. if that wasn't the motive, then i apologize.

InstaSim, i'm going to try again with livesplit, as well as the suggestion made by StreamingFire. in the end, i'll work it out. thank you both again.

You're playing on PS4, there's no way to stop livesplit at the loadscreens. Only way to time the loadscreens on console runs is manually. You can just time the loadscreens and add them up, or if you want a precise time you need to use a video editor and edit out the loadscreen frames. It's not really necessary except for top times.
