"You cannot have any of the weapons obtained later within the chapters or items. If you do, the run will be moved to NG+."
Does this apply to the weapons and such you can pick up throughout the run, or does this just mean you can't start with anything extra?
Your inventory should be like you are just playing that campaign for the first time. You cannot have anything that would not be in the starting inventory for that campaign or character. EX: Leon starts with the wing shooters and survival knife...you cant have a FOS, extra ammo/heals, grenades or other guns that you picked up in the campaign at the start. You can still pick up the guns later in the run but you cant start with them in your inventory in chapter 1. Hopefully that clears it up a bit.
