It's a holdover from when Myst and realMyst were categorized together on the same leaderboard; all versions of the game fell under the same leaderboard and it was never amended when realMyst got its own leaderboard.

It is allowed, but be aware that it is also slow.

There is a current version of the game (released by Cyan, so it is an official version) which has been modified to run natively in Windows 10 using ScummVM, and it is the accepted fastest version of the game. It is available on GoG (https://www.gog.com/game/myst_masterpiece_edition) and Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/63660/Myst_Masterpiece_Edition/).

There anyone still watching this game? I've submitted runs but can't get a hold of BlackChaos322.

Seems like the mod for https://www.speedrun.com/Treasure_Mountain and https://www.speedrun.com/Treasure_Mathstorm (https://www.speedrun.com/user/BlackChaos322) isn't active on the site anymore. I messaged them on Twitter but didn't get a response.

https://www.speedrun.com/user/oddtom is a mod of the other games in the series and still active on Speedrun.com, I'd recommend adding him as a mod.

Don't harass me for confusing right from left repeatedly in the video, use the arrow key overlay to see which direction I meant.

There is now! Guild of Speedrunners Discord link: https://discord.gg/pQzhkaT

Use the current version of DOSBox to run the game, and increase the cycles to at least 15,000 so that the game runs at the correct speed.

There a Discord server that people congregate on? Seems like there's more than just a handful of Myst series runners.

Thanks! I already joined. I know that Mack is super busy with his Master's, and he said it would be at least a week before he could get back into running.

Not a bad plan! I've only shared my tech and work with Mack so far cause I didn't realize that others were active. Would be a nice place to pool resources.

Just ran 100% yesterday, the category rules for 100% need to be tweaked since there's no ending letter after you solve the last fates, it just goes straight to a cutscene after you leave the last memory.
