@Mario64Master has been added as a moderator as of January 11th 2025 to help with verification of IL runs and help with rule discussions for categories.

There has been some changes already to the Characters Variable as Mario64Master has figured out a better way to select the character used when submitting runs. This means categories where you use multiple character and categories where the category itself is focused only on 1 character (Example: Target Test) will have the character variable removed as they are not needed. Only exception is certain Event matches as we can't separate by level. So for the moment. If you see 2 Character slots when submitting runs. Like (Character and Character "Adventure Mode") Please use both

M64M has also noticed runs that have previously been verified where runners have been using a code that lets you see more of the game than allowed (AR/Gecko Widescreen code) Not to be confused by Dolphin Aspect Ratio stretching

->Widescreen Code Differences<-

These runs will be Rejected off the leaderboard, however would be allowed to be resubmitted through our Category extensions page.

Full Release has now added categories and archived Demo stuff to make it a lot cleaner. Enjoy the runs <3

Thanks for reaching out :D. Yes we are currently in the works thinking of categories and rules. Hopefully shouldn't take too long

Ahh i see. Thank you very much <3

Which button is "the run itself"? I doubt i can find it if it isn't on the leaderboard. Unless i have to literally go into their profile and browse their Rejected runs?

Here is an example of a Rejected run that doesn't show the Reasoning for it being rejected

Oh i meant the reasoning for when you are a moderator. Like when you go to the game you moderate. Look at all the Rejected runs. I don't see the Run Rejection Reasoning

I swear i was able to go to rejected runs and see why the runs were Rejected. But i can't see it anymore? Did they move it or is it just gone?

You can use all characters except for glitched characters. Master Hand. Giga bowser etc

I hope it happens. All Achievements/100% seem like a lot of fun

SAR hasn't been made for Portal Revolution as far as i know. We need to wait for the speedrun community to make it

Yeah it does seem to be the new code called (Required: General Code) that creates the bug. We are planning on keeping Slippi emulators fast loading times for other categories however. Our current plans is to use an older version of Slippi. Our current look is version 1.1.3 on the Slippi Project Github page ->Link<-as that one to my knowledge and testing doesn't have the bugs i listed above but still keeps the fast loading times.

Only issue is we don't know if we should allow all Slippi versions without the character spawn bug or just stick to a singular version of Slippi like 1.1.3. Thing is also we don't really have a way to verify if that specific version is being used other than looking at where the NPCs spawn. At least to my knowledge

Did some more testing and no. No it doesn't. 1.1.3 does not have quicker loading times. Oops

Tried to do some testing on another older version of slippi dolphin. 2.1.0 and it still has the same bugs. Yeah we are stuck again figuring out what to do now

Even if it doesn't get used. Submitting glitches is always smart. Ofc if possible you can do research to see if the glitches you find is already discovered. And to be fair it usually is xD. But yeah thanks for sharing :D

Not at the moment. Think the moderators are currently working on rules and categories. Not sure how the mods will announce when you can submit runs. If you see rules describing when you start and end a run. It's fair to say you are allowed to submit runs.

Also needless to say i am not a moderator for portal but usually there is a post in News saying the leaderboard is open. (Actual mods here can confirm or deny if they will do that or not tho)

Ohh. I see. I tried to use the glitch to fly into the loading zone above. I didn't think of the fact you can just take the elevator still and use the glitch for the other stages xD.

Yeah that becomes kinda saddening then if most if not all stages end up with CFG. So i get the argument.

I assume there won't be a rule for just not preserving CFG through levels either? I guess it would be similar to a no CFG category. Well i am excited to see what the rules become and i am exited to try speedrunning portal again with the new mod :D. Wish the moderators and the community best of luck in finding something that works <3

How is CFG broken in this game exactly? I'm not a pro runner at all but i have only found 2 uses for it. One before the long elevator in chapter 2 and one to skip the 3rd button in final boss

Just wanna add an update as well. to the difference between 50 and 60 Hz. Apparently. 50 Hz makes you walljump higher because of a frame that makes you turn around mid walljump animation

At the start when you launch Bujingai on PAL. You can choose between 50 Hz and 60 Hz. Don't use 50 Hz. Loading times are a lot worse.

I made an →edited← and →Unedited← version to show what i mean

I mean depends on what you mean by reasonable but i guess Ebay or Amazon. However i don't know how it is where you live. But we in Norway have this site called Finn where you can sell and buy products inside your country. So if you have something similar. Try using that.

For some reason the trick doesn't work anymore. Something to do with you getting a bigger walljump. But no clue how.

Still possible tho. Just don't do the triangle attack
