So..... I just tried out xemu emulator and all I have to say that the difference is insane. Loading screens, cutscenes everything seems faster than the cxbx. Just look at the video how fast the intro section is. Since people are active now in this game, I think we should lay out some rules on which emulator should be used for the leaderboard. Xemu is faster, shadows work, soundeffects work, music works, there are some fps drops here and there but nothing too big. On other hand cxbx is just bad, things dont work like they should, there are crashes, random out of bounds etc... I don't know how other xbox speedruns deal with this issue, but there should really be a rule as to which emulator must be used.

I have no idea why or how this happened, but it did. I did not press anything before or during a cutscene. It could also be an emulator error because game crashed right after opening the gates.
