I think in NG you end up getting Lolli-Copter after this skip funny enough, would work on NG+

I can definitely add Steven to the mod and am fine with the changes. It's been a busy few months and I'll be around to verify runs on the backlog

Yeah the game will do that, it's why in most runs you'll see the runner just running past the enemies and stopping in the lights if too many swarm them

The newest version is probably fine. I'd recommend Bizhawk however

So Fran Bow randomly got an update and runners who have mastered Legacy tricks requested the versions be split since the new version is much faster but removes a lot of the speedtech of the older version making them quite different. I have split the boards and will have the default one be Legacy for now unless Unity gets more runners since it makes sense to showcase the run people like doing more

Only one way to find out, admittedly I didn't know Overblood had a PSN port

So I was playing this game casually and managed to clip into a staircase. I think the games path detection messed up when I tried climbing and it corrected me into a spot that allowed me to run through it.

I don't know if it'd be useful in the spot I found it but other game staircases may be if it could be replicated.

I think we can leave it with Any% and Any% Memory Corruption and I do like the idea of a tab for translation type.

So it would be JPN(Any% Memory and Any%) as the main category And English(Any% Memory and Any%) With Gaijin/2016 as variables instead of entirely separate categories if there isn't a huge difference.

If there is strong interest in Glitchless exclusive we can make that separate but I don't believe a Dynamo time actually beat the Glitchless WR.

So with the new trick traditional RPG enjoyers are definitely being left behind if they want to compete since the new style of run entirely breaks it.

Countdown already mentioned the idea of splitting with the new route and the old route with Dynamo. I'm not opposed to the idea but it may make more sense to have entirely glitchless vs glitched, but I would like to hear more on this.

As well I'm not sure how exactly to separate on different versions. The smartest I'd guess is combine the unofficial english ones and keep JPN on its own end?

It was brought to my attention that some players may be experiencing varying load times upon booting the game. To help make competition more fair for runners time will start upon first input which is the text at the start saying "Hi Sarah! We're so glad you could come on such short notice!"

Upon looking at the existing runs there already exists a slight difference so this should help

So I found a skip by mashing the confirm button. It allows you to INSTANTLY solve the Lights Out book puzzle to get the tree key and likely saves about 30 seconds over actually doing it.

Not sure! I think Steam has some natural settings on it

God this game really is awful isn't it? I'm down to make a split, Although we currently have 0 runners who aren't me so it might look a bit weird

@Daravae I've had a submission for the game Harvester, in limbo for about 2 months now. I'm fairly certain both mods are no longer on SRC. One seems to be on twitter but has no way to DM them and they'd likely not maintain the leaderboard. Can I just get moderation for this?

So I ran a game recently called AMY, it's apparently a dead board since neither mod has been active in sometime. One has no contact info and the other seemed to ignore my message. Can I possibly get mod for this so I can verify both my own run and any potential runs in limbo? I moderate plenty of games already so it shouldn't be too difficult to pick up this mostly empty one @Daravae

So PC is optimal for the standard Any% but realistically you can do No Major Glitches with any platform

I'm very glad it worked!

I just replayed the remake today and yeah that's the spot I believe. It was like a roundish lakeside? I'm not sure how consistent it'd be but it'd save a TON of time

So looking at the game as a whole it's pretty lengthy and the endgame levels are kind of insane. As a category I think a Hub 1 which ends the run on the first boss would make for an excellent category! I've done some test runs of this so far on PS2 and it's looking to be about a 25 minute run.

For clarity this begins on New Game selection and hits time at the end of the Benny Boss

At it's peak Dynamo is definitely faster, the issue is it MASSIVELY increases the runs difficulty so it isn't reflective of it's peak. The TAS with Dynamo has about a 40 minute run

So I just thought of something. We don't have a category that gets the games best ending where you have to go into the Labyrinth portion of the game and save So Young. It might possibly be worth making the glitchless category double dip with So Young for completions sake
