Bavaria, Germany

Hi Folks,

i am new at Speedrunning, but play Wave Race since my childhood. :)

I have no capture card in the moment. Is it realy not necessary to link an Video Proof? Or did i understand Something wrong?

I probaby will not make it to the top ten....

And how could i post an Video? Upload to youtube and link it here?

Thank you! :)

Hey, that's correct you don't need one but it does help you to see the mistakes you are making and get feedback

When you submit on this website it gives you an option to add a video link; youtube is a good one but other sites work

Good Luck on your Runs; check out the tutorial series on my youtube channel if you haven't already(link in another thread)

"Captured video proof is required for all top 10 submissions." Meaning you don't need a capture card up until that point. Benchmark times however (like Sunny beach 1:03) do require video submissions of some form though.

Fun fact, as of right now, you don't actually need a capture card to get into top10 so it's not an actual barrier yet.

Always good to see waveracers playing again 😎 Feel free to join us on discord

I submitted my first run yesterday. My Problem is... I was not aware about the massive differences between PAL and NSC Version. So i have to burry my WR ambition...;). I hope i'll make it to run my capture card in the next weeks... At least i will have video proof soon.

Emulators are banned... I guess an everdrive on N64 is also banned? So no chance for me to run NSC?

PAL WRs are less competitive but very encouraged

If you want to play PAL that's cool and will be recognized and celebrated by the community

As an example, Andy Panther recently went up the rankings list almost exclusively by improving the PAL records(deserved)

Good Luck on your runs, your skills will transfer if you ever can get a NTSC setup

Sadly, you are right on that. But if it makes you feel any better, is just as hard for us to get PAL setups too. I am looking into a way to convert these times to NTSC but as of right now, PAL times will have to do.
