United KingdomCheck the resources section, there's two split files available there :)
I assume so that the rules can be set up and all, just wanted to ask.
That was a category a while back before I was a moderator but I think it got removed to simplify the boards and because again no one was running the game at the time. If there was a bigger interest in running Mirror Mode and Hard Mode I can re-add them as subcategories or something.
Minor point here, but looking again at the leaderboards, would it not be better for the Trilogy to be it's own category rather than subcategory? I mean, if you look at the ILs it shows indy's times as the WR times when they're factually not when compared to the trilogy version.
Apologies for the late response. I swear I posted one about a month ago but the site must've crashed when I submitted it.
While I'm not entirely against the idea of an 'All Achievements' category, there are some problems that would make it hard to moderate.
- The Steam version of the game doesn't have achievements, either in-game or on the Steam Platform.
- One of the achievements requires the use of Local Multiplayer.
- As Slevanas pointed out, it would be difficult on Xbox One.
Saying that however, I am open to suggestions for a '100%'-like category. I was thinking something like an All Objectives category, but that's also something that has flaws, the main one that I can see being that (aside from being hard to reset) one of the Objectives requires you to make a token fall on the board 100 times which is basically down to just randomness of the dice rolls. I know this is Monopoly we're talking about but even that is taking it too far IMO.
But I'm all open for suggestions on what other runners would like to see for this game.
Since Any% is pretty optimized by now, I was wondering if there was any sort of interest in an alternative category. A while back I had one called "88%" where the objective of the run was to get 8 of the 9 possible achievements (since you can't get both Ultimate Saviour and Ultimate Bully in 1 playthrough) and beat the game. I ended up removing the run since it was hard to tell when an achievement was actually completed according to the game but if there's interest I'll re-add it.
Woops
I know I'm late on this but is there any sort of interest in have a marathon category/leaderboard for speedrunning all 3 games in the trilogy?
I'm surprised that there isn't a Basic Training category, well I went ahead and did a run of it for fun. If you decide to add the category here's my current PB.
As long as it's a link to a working video, any method is fine.
I can't quite tell, it seems like it does as you're doing something mid-cutscene. Also it does mean you only have to speak to the tribesman once after the duel. At a guess it probably only saves a second, maybe two at a stretch.
Updated the rules, thanks.
I'll also make sure to update the rules for the other categories so that they're more clear.
I think it goes without saying that you cannot use cheats during a run, but in order to get the optimal house setup for Max Skills you'd either have to spend a long time getting the career rewards or just use cheats to build the house that way, so in order to make the category more accessible the use of cheats before starting the run in my opinion is perfectly fine as long as you don't use them afterwards.
Interesting that you chose Single Box Skip, I had that on when I was playing through the game normally and when I did my 6:30 run on The First Turnabout, but as soon as I switched to Full Box Skip I saw massive time drops, could just be coincidence as it's possible I just got better at mashing/making less mistakes. Something to think about at least.
I think me and courte tried doing this a couple of months ago because he was having issues with capturing the game as well and we couldn't figure out any sort of solution. If you figure something out let us know, but I think the game is pernamently locked to play in fullscreen mode only.
