What is the minus number that you count down from in the beginning of a run if you press START GAME and SPLIT at the same time on PAL version?
If that made any sense.
I think -3.42 will be the most accurate. Although keep in mind that you have to start the game as soon as possible.
Someone double-check my numbers, but according to my calculations, the amount of time between the start press and the frame that "400" appears at the start of 1-1 varies from 2.76 to 3.10 seconds, depending on exactly what frame you press the button. If you press it on the first possible frame, then -2.80 would do it.
Personally, I would just either start the timer at 0 and start when the level starts, or use -3.46 (plus any multiples of 0.36 if you need to wait on the title screen for whatever reason) and start the timer from reset.
Any% (NTSC) runs below 4:57.000 must now fulfill additional requirements in order to be verified.
- The run's full session must be included in the submission description.
- For emulator runs below 4:57.000, some form of input display must be visible for the duration of the run. A hand-cam or input
