Hello everyone,

I am currently not very active on speedrun.com and as you can see, there is a lot of runs to be verified, and I simply don't have time to do that. So I'm looking for anyone at least a bit knowledgeable to become a mod :) Thx

Should I add more ILs? I only added Tour of the Island and Millionaire's Challenge, cause these two are the only ones I find interesting to run and there is actually some competition (mostly Youtube).

Hi,

I noticed that in Denhonator's run, the timer runs pretty slow during travelling or waiting, and stops when you eat from pots, initiate a conversation and so on (I suppose the game loads there). This is all probably due to the load removal script. Seems like the pointer address is incorrect.

Hello guys,

I have noticed that all Any% runs are actually Any% NG+ since they all use profiles at high level with unlocked skills and item slots.

Hi,

https://www.speedrun.com/nfsu1

So I just recently found out that there is an old version on PC that have locked framerate to 120fps, which makes it run TWICE as fast as on other version, which have the framerate locked to 60fps (obviously it was a fix). It behaves exactly as 2.00 speed on Youtube.

Now, the general rule in speedrunning is that you should use a faster version on PC, but that is in regard to glitches and shortcuts, not in regard to game speed.

I am not sure what to do now. If the framerate would be unlocked and the more fps you'd have, the faster the game would become, it would be a nobrainer and I would simply ban it, but considering the framerate is actually locked (engine lock), everyone can compete.

What do you guys think? Ban or allow?

This game has a nasty bug that makes the in-game timer go wrong.

So when you do IL runs, make sure to not cross the 15 minute mark. Of course this is not possible for all ILs as some take longer than 15 minutes. These will probably be timed using real time.

We will retime every IL that has this timebug.

Does anyone know if there is a difference between versions? My main concern is that some versions have different handling, thus giving advantage (kinda like NFSIII PC vs PSX). I only played PC version.

Should we allow Speedbreaker in ILs? We don't allow it in MW2005 and Carbon, because it messes up with the in-game timer.

This run use it: http://www.speedrun.com/run/y8qq7dxy
