  1. Yes, tracks can be done in any order.
  2. We never had anyone ask about crashes since they aren't all that common. Let's say you can reboot the game and continue running if it's between maps, but not if a crash happens in the middle of a track. If this becomes a major issue, we can re-evaluate.
  3. Yeah, this is not an issue :)

Announcing the SRC Series Rocket Racing Speedrun Challenge!

Contest Dates: February 15th - February25th, 2024

Prizes: 1st Place: $250 2nd Place: $150 3rd Place: $100

The SRC Series is a lineup of challenges we're rolling out on a semi-regular basis, funded entirely by Speedrun.com SRC Series challenges are designed to be fun and engaging, with a focus on community involvement. The prize bounties are smaller compared to sponsored challenges, providing a break from the stress of high-stakes competition! We hope SRC Series challenges will bring speedrunners together from all kinds of communities to discover new games and meet new people.

Find out more info here: https://www.speedrun.com/news/m25px1v1-src-series-rocket-racing-speedrun-challenge

Please feel free to post questions around contest and run rules right here in this forum post :)

P.S. Now that the challenge is live - your category of focus for the challenge in the next 10 days is.... Expert Tracks!! If you need a run to learn from, you can find one under the category here https://www.speedrun.com/Rocket_Racing/leaderboards?h=expert-levels&x=q25z87j2

Good luck!!

@silychris999 The deluxe version. You can either upgrade standard, some are upgrading from the subscription to a permanent copy, or giving the copy to a friend. Up to the individual how they want to use it :)

Any advice if I'm struggling with the barrel jump to skip the key?

Following up today after yesterday’s $10,000 Speedrun Challenge announcement with some more even exciting news - we are super excited to announce that Ubisoft has not only sponsored this challenge with a whopping $10,000 prize pool, but an incredible 200 game keys for Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Deluxe Edition!

We will be giving away 200 PC copies of the game to the first 200 runners who submit a verified speedrun for the Pit of Eternal Sands category in the PoP:TLC $10,000 Speedrun Challenge! Already have the Deluxe Edition? Feel free to give it away to a friend, or a fellow speedrunner!

We hope you’re all as excited about this as we are. Go follow the challenge, and be amongst the first 200 to snag your free copy by submitting a speedrun. Happy running everyone, stay tuned for more exciting updates! :)

I've wanted to implement it as an official feature since I saw @Walgrey's post in 2021, it's just not a big priority comparatively. Maybe 2024 wrapped tho :p

If the load remover is functioning properly, it absolutely should be used/allowed

Site AdminCanadaMeta1 year ago

is the load remover not being used..?

Site AdminCanadaMeta1 year ago

I think use of the load remover is implied, since it exists (unsure if its on LiveSplit yet, but it should be)

Or if you mean adding the LRT/RTA split in the time columns, IMO its better just to leave it as "Time" (as it is right now) it looks nice and clean

I think it'd be great to get even more customization than that, honestly. Like featured run if it could fit nicely, or additional run related stats (WR's, time spent, etc)

I'll start this off, we're looking for the popovers to be increasingly customizable per user - and we're open to ideas :)
