I tried this run collecting the least amount of keys in a full game run, excluding bonus level, and of the 100 keys total in the game than you can collect, I managed to collect just 35 keys, and there's a few keys that I think could be bypassed too, but the run did take 22:13, because there was a lot of really difficult tricks needed in order to bypass some keys. I could upload the video if you guys want, but I'll leave a level by level breakdown of where I collected keys and how many:
Basic Training 12 = 2 Keys Basic Training 13 = 4 Keys Timing 9 = 3 Keys Timing 10 = 1 Key Timing 13 = 2 Keys Timing 15 = 1 Key Puzzle Solving 4 = 2 Keys Puzzle Solving 7 = 1 Key Agility 3 = 1 Key Agility 4 = 1 Key Agility 8 = 1 Key Agility 10 = 4 Keys Focus 7 = 3 Keys Focus 8 = 7 Keys Focus 9 = 2 Keys
Chapters:
Basic Training = 6 out of 24 Keys Timing = 7 out of 31 Keys Puzzle Solving = 3 out of 13 Keys Agility = 7 out of 13 Keys Focus = 12 out of 19 Keys
Yeah, I'm guessing that strategy might be a bit slow lol, I've managed on a few occasions to to glitch through the door with the sonic, but it's very difficult with the lack of energy, I'll see if I can do it again on video.
This run has been lowered by 2 whole hours now, pretty good.
Literally only just noticed this now, I am dumb.
I didn't realise until now that I got this exactly a year after Vaurien's old record lol
I've decided to change how timing works on endings involving the Eye Ending.
After watching a few runs i realised that the time between shooting the Eye and the cutscene loading varies, between 0.166s and 1.166s.
so ill retime all the current runs that have this segment in the run, to when the player shoots the eye, rather than when the cutscene loads, and all future runs will be timed this way too.
I'd be interested in that, is your escalations spreadsheet of all of the games or just Hitman 3?
I've added a Time Calculator to the splits resources you can use when running Full-Game Categories, especially the longer ones, if your gonna use it for a submission, you can save the data from the calculator as a URL, post that URL in the description of the submission on Speedrun.com.
Hey, do you know of any TASing software we could use, i've tried Hourglass and Bizhawk which didn't work, PC games are know for bring hard to TAS, but would you know of any possible software?
I'll ask in the Discord if everyone wants these categories.
Yeah that quality is fine, as long as you have video of all of the run and the whole screen in visable.
Still crazy he tied it twice in two days, thats the first time ive seen that happen, its alot more common in games like Mario Kart 64, which uses 2 decimal places, but with JRT with 3 its a lot more unlikely, but cool tho.
I don't think that has ever happened on Speedrun.com, definetely hasn't happened to me.
Now im just wondering whether or not it's possible on 200 and 100HP, im tryna get it on 200 but i cant seem to get enough height on my launch.
I'm making a video for the guides, it wont be long. i got it a few times in an hour or two.
I think pro race will boil down to getting the new glitch on the first lap, then getting 4 laps with the old glitch.
until someone goes for 2 of the new glitch in one pro race.
Some one will go for it eventually, but i will never do it, i cant do it twice in a row. let alone 5.
