Cutscene Skipper for casual gamers?

Hello Speedrunners.

Is the cutscene skipper only for speedrunners, or can it be used by people that are just playing ffx casually? (Not speedrunning)

Also, is it buggy in this early state, or does it work without crashing / green screening etc.?

The cutscene skipper is currently only intended for any% speedruns. If you want to play casually or another category it's very likely that you will encounter issues or unskipped cutscenes. (Support for other categories is planned) Overall it's relatively stable if you don't deviate from the any% path.

If you encounter green screens and crashes (even without the cutscene skipper), most of those problems can be solved using the 4GB Patch: https://www.speedrun.com/ffx/guide/oyi9n

Thank you.

I'd strongly advise against using it for casual stuff, there's a relatively strong chance that the story progression could reset in some areas if you backtrack or revisit areas after getting the airship, and when that happens it can overwrite the auto-save too which can be frustrating.

We'll hopefully add better support in the future, but right now we only test functionality for any%
