The parts where the camera raises automatically in the main game has been notified already by the mods and as long as it's lowered as soon as the game allows then it's fine. So no, there's not anywhere where you "need" a cam ;)

Thanks for getting back to me. I've seen some games with no video proof and I was just wondering if this series was one of them.

I don't know if it's of any help but even the game I run (Sonic Adventure DX) has unfairness over all the consoles, this will always be the case with different ports. Thankfully it looks like they've added Glitchless back in this game for that reason but does that beat the issue now of "load times" or, when it comes to it, platform exclusive skips? (Skipping not being a glitch of course). It's always going to have the bit of hassle but, as Finath said; the exclusive list for each platform can be selected in the drop down boxes so there aren't loads of leaderboards.

Hello all.

I was just wondering that, due to the old runs having a substantially large time loss to the rule change then are we going to retime these to remove the credit times? Just a thought of course, I'd like to hear everyone's opinion.

Now, with RTA runs, does this mean we have to run against apjmm's time? I'm a bit sceptical due to the fact that his run took months to piece together so the category of RTA wouldn't be possible to do in a stream if you had the intention of taking the WR. Don't get me wrong, it's great that it's there, just feels a bit cheap for those who like to run a run in a stream for an audience and not piece it together for months on end until it's unbeatable.

Hello there. I was just wondering something. I know my run was verified ages ago and I was told afterwards to be mindful of it, but does quitting out the game to make a safety save count as the run then being counted as a "segmented" run? I saved in sewers just so I didn't have to redo a run. This was when I wasn't quite William Wallace at the game but I'm definitely there now. I was just asking so I'm aware and so new runners are aware.

Thank you for your help!

Dang that was so long ago that you posted this, I hope you've found an answer since! If not then I can go over it all.

So, the game is split in to Any%, Any% Pauseless, Any% Glitchless and Any% Pause + Glitchless. So we're all aware of what a glitch is; a glitch with this game is something made possible in the game without external programs being added to the system. The only glitch we've found is the one on level 4 where, if you hold the left mouse button down after completing the level, the elephant stays in the same state for every other level and you can hover your mouse over the end (wobbling it slightly) to easily end every level. Now, you'll notice the run times for Any% are really low; that's because we can pause the timer after every single level and a brief pause/unpause is all you need with the level 4 glitch to complete the level (which surpasses about 0.25 in game time). That all comes in to the definition of "Any%". Any% pauseless is just the same except, you guessed it; no pauses. Any% glitchless means you can only do the mouse click finish in level 4 and then you have to let go of the mouse for the rest of the levels so that glitch doesn't carry on but you can still feel free to pause at the end of every level. Any% pause and glitchless, therefore, is simple. Play the game without pausing and without doing the level 4 glitch.

Hope that helped you and anyone else who may have been wondering the same thing! If there's anything you don't get then post it in the forum again and I'll try and get back to you.

Hello there, I saw your time and was surprised but that's mainly because I don't know what an any% run partakes. If you could be so kind to inform me! I played this game ages ago and was all so curious. That also being said, is a fully upgraded Emerl (by use of the in game codes) allowed in runs? Thank you ever so much!

ScotlandKarpnado9 years ago

Well there we are, Desch. Hopefully we can see you running this category a lot with your interpretation of the rules or with other peoples interpretation for it to get on this site eventually and hopefully inspire more people.

If you figure out what rules you want to run then make a new forum here and I'll take notes on that and happily compete against you when I have access to a computer with Amnesia on it again! (December time no doubt). Thanks for the post and hopefully any questions you have have been answered. Any other questions then don't hesitate to post :)

Regards,

Craig.

The biggest problem (in my eyes) is that this game doesn't have any sort of track for %'s in the game as for what you've actually accomplished. You may do a full "100%" run and miss one puzzle that no one notices and then your time is unbeatable yet grandfathered in. With that you'd be saying "well because my run was verified and thus grandfathered in then your runs can avoid doing that puzzle too" which is where this category falls apart due to the bits that will be taken from a 100% run, thus losing its definition. Hopefully that was easy to follow. I'd love to see 100% runs personally, the one I saw (as mentioned above by Nosferatu) was good and I really thought it was interesting what had happened in the run. Hell, it was faster than my any% run at the time so I was mega impressed at how well it went. The sad error is just what will come of the category once someone nitpicks at the categories rules. Hopefully we can one day make a definitive "here are the rules" discussion, but that is to be seen.

Makes sense for the 100% rules. I guess the glitchless definition for Justine would be fitting for that of TDD's definition of Glitchless if it was implemented.

ScotlandKarpnado9 years ago

Hello all. As you're aware with the (new?) update of Amnesia: The Dark Descent's leaderboard for a "Glitchless" category, I was wondering if we'd be expecting to see the same misc category transferred over to Justine. And also if the 100% run of TDD would make its appearance on the leaderboards. I understand if you don't want to add them due to people running the category/the demand but yeah. Thank you all kindly!

ScotlandKarpnado9 years ago

Hello all. This would be a sort of ¤bump¤ I guess you'd say of something Cjbqulix posted a while back in the Skype group but I'd like to ask if anyone has found any more out about the wrong warps and if it would be possible to implement in an All Stories run. To make it fair for the already grandfathered times then we'd have to say that the new category would be something like "All stories any%" I guess if that saves any hassle and detest of anyone who looks down on this idea. Also, if it helps out then if something ¤has¤ been found then would it be possible to state what, where and which version, please? Thank you all kindly.

Thought I'd give my 2 cents (if this work pc lets me post things that is). I liked the idea of the without loads because I've always been a big believer of the other games that have without loads that usually have huge load zones for some people (portal and amnesia mostly in my case) would make running it for other people to be a huge hassle and not even worth attempting. Sadly, it does look like the only way to make a fair run like that would be to manually count overworlds and add them on to the finished time due to the fact that a 3 hour Sonic Story run could technically be 14 minutes XX seconds IGT. The way it stands is weird for now, I guess SADX isn't too highly technical and demanding that the loads are a problem "yet". The sad fact is obviously nullifying other versions seeing as it stands to show that PC is conquering all. Hopefully this discussion has progressed a bit since me posting this, I'm away and can't exactly check Skype and such but yeah, hope my words are appreciated.
