Dear SpeedChefs,
since there is now a bit more of competition for certain categories including DLCs, I realized the retiming was done a bit too sloppy in the past using slightly different points to start/stop the timer, which i wanna change so it's a fair environment for everyone.
For 1P runs:
- Timer starts when you pick a new or existing savefile to overwrite
- Full Game runs: Timer stops when you hand in the last dish to the Ever Peckish (OC1) or to the counter in 6-6 (OC2)
- DLC runs: Timer stops at the frame when the transition screen to the scoreboard of the last level happens. If its AllStars%, ofc only if you got all the stars.
For 2P/3P/4P runs:
- Timer starts when the last player of the group has picked his savefile. This can be seen when the bottom right hopping burger/pizza icon appears on screen, leading to the overworld/opening cutscene to be loaded.
- Full Game runs: Timer stops when you hand in the last dish to the Ever Peckish (OC1) or to the counter in 6-6 (OC2)
- DLC runs: Timer stops at the frame when the transition screen to the scoreboard of the last level happens. If its AllStars%, ofc only if you got all the stars.
So if you got some notifications that your runs have been verified again, it's because of this.
This will need a bit time, so I'll try to do what I can over the upcoming Easter days, but please be patient. <3
Hi there,
thanks for pointing that out. I actually changed the text value, but was unaware that since the new update you also have to save the whole thing again. It should now show the correct rules for Modded runs:
Archipelago features must be turned off. All mods have to be turned off with the only exception being the AutoComplete feature which..
- must be permanently set to 3 Stars for "AllStars%"
- can be altered freely during "Any%"
Usage of the "Del"-Button to manually end levels early is also allowed.
A new category has been created: New Game+ or short NG+
it's like any%, but any available weapons are allowed. Use the password SYMRGOBRRL to unlock all special weapons.
to record gameplay i'd recommend OBS as well. Generally works pretty good and is reusable for all kinds of games you want to do local recordings of.
Okay, since I agree with adedulator on the unnecessary rule restrain on 3 Star scores on any%, I'm updating the ruleset for Modded Any% so you can change the AutoComplete condition freely during the run to adjust the amount of stars needed per level.
thanks toaster. It's a great work already. I'm baffled how easy the installation of the mod is with the code injection stuff. Will try out the randomizer soon and see if i can bring this onto the boards as well.
For some reason I can not pin this thread to the top of the Forum posts. Strange..
"Modded" category modifier has been created. A video guide would be neat indeed, though toasterparty already made good efforts on the text guide on the github page.
What's cooking everybody ? :)
After toasterparty released the official mod for Overcooked 2 (check it out here) which allows for all kinds of shenanigans including quick passing levels on reaching specific scores, randomizing stage orders etc., it's a great way to newly discover the game for speedrunning, since we now don't just have to sit around for a long time per level until the timer runs out which adds a great level of competition.
I have added the "Game State" variable which reflects "Unmodded" and "Modded" versions of the game. All existing runs have been obviously moved to "Unmodded".
If you want to run the modded version, feel free to try it out, but be sure to read the rules since i might need to still update them a little bit more. For now, no mods are allowed except the AutoComplete feature which let you end levels faster the faster you gain the required 3-Star score. I might add other stuff as possible categories as well like the randomizer, but that will need a bit more prep time.
If you got ideas for improvement or find some erratic stuff in the rules, on the categories or submission screens, please let me know and i'll fix it asap. I never reworked that much in a single game on SRC before. :D
Also, if you want to use the load remover made by Nikoheart (check it out here), feel free to use it in runs, but for now i'll still use the RTA times until I implemented the additional time column on the boards. I'll make another announcement when I'm done with it.
Keep cooking !
Looks very interesting. I'll take a look into it and try to add it as a category this weekend
tbh, this should be a basic rule that must apply to all speedruns out there. But good thing it's specifically outlined here.
I don't think it fits the purpose of this leaderboard. This is all about speedgaming, for highscores there are competitive boards at https://overcooked.greeny.dev/
Hi dearest chefs !
Migration of the AYCE parts from the Overcooked! 2 leaderboards has been completed. Please report to me if you're missing a run from the old board. I triple checked that I didn't miss out on one ;)
From now on this is the place to submit your AYCE runs.
Keep Cooking everyone !
It's done ! Overcooked All You Can Eat is now completely separated from this game and can be found here:
https://www.speedrun.com/overcooked_all_you_can_eat
All runs and categories have been moved as well. From now on, please submit your AYCE runs over there.
Please let me know if you have trouble submitting runs there or if something appears weird. I tried to setup everything right but yaknow, sometimes errors slip through :D
Keep cooking everybody !
Hello dear speedrun chefs !
Ever since the All You Can Eat (or short: AYCE) version of Overcooked released in 2020, it was never properly added to SRC, just as a sidekick in Overcooked 2, which makes little sense since it also provides content from Overcooked 1 as well as exclusive side campaigns.
I want to properly separate these games now so we have all content thoroughly directed towards the places where they belong.
This will take a bit of time since I first have to request the new game being added, then i gotta migrate all the AYCE stuff from OC2 over including settings, runs, categories, etc.
For you there will be no changes for now. You can continue submitting runs for all existing categories of OC2 and AYCE here, they will all be moved to the correct locations once it happens. I will make another announcement when it's done.
Keep cooking greatness and have a great day !
If you're using two controllers to still control 1 player at a time (split controls), it's still 1 Player.
If you control two individual cooks and have fast chop times etc., it's 2+ players.
Hi Pdo13,
in general you're right, technically it would be better to list the DLC runs as Full game categories. However, in this game we already have the problem that we got so many potential categories with the original Overcooked 2 & All-You-Can-Eat version, which split up into Any% and AllStars%, which again split up into 1-,2-,3- and 4-Player categories.
There is just no more space to add another major category layer, so I would have to create major categories like "OC2-Main Story", "OC2-AYCE-Main Story", "OC2-Night of the Hangry Horde", etc. And in my opinion, this would look way more ugly than having the DLCs as separate Level categories in their own section, which technically might not be entirely accurate, but since there won't ever be individual level boards anyways (apart from that 6-6), why not use them for this ?
Congratulations on the SGDQ World Record ! :D
Well, surely a video is required for most speedruns to be verified, but after verification it's not necessary to keep the video. Videos can be unattached for multiple reasons. Attached accounts could be deleted / banned or whatever.
But since the run is verified, that means (or at least should mean) that a mod has watched the run and decided that it's fine to get verified.
When did you realize that something is wrong with the run ? Just asking, because it must have been a while ago when the video was still available. Would've expected you reached out for it earlier ?
Can you describe what the concrete problem is ? Did they not unlock a certain Kevin level or just missed out on a star in a stage ?
