i dont mean this in a rude way but could you please consider adding more categories of speedruns for this game, such as there being an option to speedrun only one certain cup glitched or glitchless. so there are like, separate options to only do chao cup, or another cup. also maybe have like, time trial sections for race track maybe? just some ideas i would love if you could put in. thank you, sagar. <3

Individual cups will probably not be added (for now). You can just run all cups for those. As for time trials, ILs for this game and other sonic games are hosted on the sonic center: http://www.soniccenter.org/rankings/sonic_&_sega_all-stars_racing

Also: best way to get new categories added is to do runs of them and link them to any mod, bonus points if you get others to run them aswell.

cool, thanks for reading my thread. hava a good day <3 ^-^

Whichever mod added them, big thanks for adding the ILs. I'd like to recommend also adding the Egg Hangar DLC track at the bottom of the IL list.

Bit late, but I added Egg Hangar to the IL boards the other day, didn't see this request until right now, sorry for the wait, not sure why it wasn't already there.

I was thinking of an All Achievements Category

All Achievements has been talked about a lot, which has always perplexed me because the run would be a good 4-5 hours of actually playing the game, followed by about 2-3 hours of nothing but grinding for SEGA Miles until you reach the Gold License. It doesn’t sound fun at all and I don’t think people realise how monotonous it would be.

The category would likely need to use RTA timing (or realistically LTR but it would be so tedious to time and would take forever to do), which means that someone with a really fast PC could easily claim the record and keep it because they save too much time just on loading screens alone.

I remember the conversation of having like an All Characters% which would just be unlocking all the characters, but then I think you suggested that it would be grinding SEGA Miles which would be monotonous. Maybe an Opa-Opa/Alex Kidd% since they cost the most? But the judgement is up to you and the other moderators.

Definitely think something like that would be far more interesting, however I would opt to change it from buying the most expensive thing in the store to unlocking the Blue License (50,000 SEGA Miles). This is because while the grind to buy Alex Kidd/Opa-Opa is slightly shorter, you would need to keep track of how many miles you have in the back of your mind for the whole run, and then be absolutely sure you have enough by the end and go buy them. Making a single miscalculation would basically kill the run. So by grinding for the Blue License you would not need to worry about anything because once achieved you’ll receive a notification about it, and that’s when the timer would end. In addition, because of the fact you would never need to exit gameplay, this completely circumvents the problem of loading times and keeps everything fair no matter the platform.

I am willing to make this a category and put it in the Category Extensions section, however for the category to be created there will need to be at three runs completed first, as that’s the requirement I’ve set for all other categories in the past.

I still think that people underestimate how boring this category will be lol

I got an idea for a 100% category start from a new save file complete all cup complete all mission at least A or maybe AAA rank for it to more like a 100% run buy all stuff in shop and complete all 24 tracks in single race with at least 1 lap enable but well i want to do it but don't have the talent the highest i can get in all mission is A rank

That takes way too much time and nobody would run it

don't think time is a problems GTA SA 100% is almost 12 for WR but there still people doing it it just that you want to do it or not

yeah but that has gameplay where you do something else than playing the same track for sega miles for 8 hours if you want it added do a single segment run of it
