Will a directx error invalidate a run?
1 year ago

So I am Co-op running MSQ ARR and ended up having 4 directx errors. I never stopped the live split timer but obviously the client crashes and i have to reload the game. Just curious if I need to restart the run now or can I finish it? Thanks for any replies in advance!

I can't tell for sure, but I've seen other older games being powered off and restarted as part of a strat/skip. That was kept in the same video segment, and therefore it counted.

Not sure if this applies here, but just saying there were precedents set in other games before on that front. Now as to whether this board will follow it? Mods will have to chime in.

as far as i can tell closeing/reopening the game doesn't invalidate as long as the timer never stops. atleast my run did it at the begining to copy over HUD and it was fine
