Is loading a save allowed in full episode runs?

Just checking that loading a save isn't allowed in full episode runs as per IL rules.

Skåne, Sweden

Imo it should be fine and I think we've verified runs with saves before, we've never discussed it though. It's not IL really, it's just the only good way to have it on SRC (can't have sub-sub-categories).

Episode runs is best used as way for people to upload episode PBs from RTA to get a sense of the best possible human-viable time I think, especially now that there is some potential for maybe a reroute where you start on ep3 and go for Bank Roll+Flood Zone trip clip and might even open up for Farenheit card skip if you don't mind resetting a lot-- I think it'd work out with ammo just barely with some good hits on the boss . Would be nice having ep2 in the middle instead also because Dark Side clip.

neat.

i will refrain from uploading shitty runs to empty boards regardless since cheap IL WRs defeat the point of separating it from fullgame

we have a set up in the sm64 rom hacks series where we have Stage RTAs and individual stars are subcategories if you want to have a peek at that but I dont know if that setup is even plausible with all the needed variables for duke 3d. SRC's control panel is a bit lacking imo, leaves a lot of games kinda jury-rigged into their system
