Bretagne, FranceHi ! First of all, I invite you to join the Discord Serv, that will be easier for us to "teach" you that skip : https://discord.gg/d27Ccb I can explain some things quickly from what I saw :
- 1st, your aiming at the beginning could be better (try to aim the bottom-left of the circle to the black pixel, instad of the bottom-right).
- You need to 1-Frame Down Pause-buffer, then hold Down-Left when you are into the trees
The thing is that in other games, glitchless is a category that is used when glitches are way too broken (Pokemon Yellow for exemple : 1h55 for Glitchless, 16m for Glitch%, so 1h30 saved). In HP1, the only "real" glitches are Quidditch Abuse and Fire Seed Skip (I mean glitches that save a lot of time). Quidditch Abuse is about 15min saved, Fire Seed Skip should be 10min saved. So let's say 30min saved in a 1h20 run. That's why we don't have distinct categories.
For me, that run should be another category, since you need something else than start a fresh new game (QuidditchAbuse% ?). And okay to have to run in a fresh new card, to avoid abuses too.
Maybe somebody can to the same test we did for other emulators/versions (go to 1st savebook as fast as possible, then compare IGT/RTA).
Wasn't really sure for when started the timer. So il my start right by the way ?
I think I have a setup with 80+% for the End. Pr0te, do you have a skype/facebook/email to communicate with you, for you to test before I post it on the forum ?
OOB occures only when you press Up for too long during Step 7. Just have to be a bit careful when you do, and that will be okay I think (never went to OOB except when I tested Long-Press Up).
Thanks a lot ! For the moment, that's a 20% accuracy on that strat for me. Still working on Over the Trees. Congratulations for your first FireSeedSkip run !
Can you upload a video of the D-Pad Strat with Controller next to it ? Can't figure how to execute it.
So, I tried your setup with d-pad, but it doesn't work with me.
Maybe another way to do this (Over the Trees) :
- At Step 8, do a 1-Frame Left. Harry's foot should be about in the middle of a branch.
- Then, Down-Right. Harry should do a jump against the tree.
- Just after the jump, Up-Left, and Harry grabs the geometry.
That setup worked twice on 10 tries (I go back to step 1 everytime). The main problem is that Step8 position is random, but when my setup was okay, Harry's foot was in the middle of a branch.
Still trying lots of setups, but it's so close !
I'll try that tomorrow in the afternoon. I'll download Discord tomorrow too !
Tried a couple of times the full setup, and can't deal with Step 8 (Steps 6 & 7 are 99% consistant, step 4 is a bit more hard but still okay). I could grave to "over the trees" geometry many times, but with total luck I think. I still work on finding a strat to grab it more consistantly.
Trying to find a better strat for Step8, and this is where I am :
-
Hold R2 to lock Camera.
-
Pause-Buffer on 2 frames, holding Left.
-
Then, keep Up-Left while pausing, and unpause. --> Here, Harry jumps and do a double jump after (seems to look like what you have on "Over the Trees"
-
If you hold Down-Left just after the first jump against the tree, it seems that you jump higher.
Hope that will be helpful, I continue to try things tomorrow !
Hi everyone ! I recently started to run the game on Emulator (ePSXe), with NTSC-U Game and had some glitches. I have a lot of sound glitches, maybe 5-6 times in a run, in which the sound does like a loop of 2/3seconds, but that's not very important. More anoying is that the game can just softlock. Here are two examples : Forbidden Forest, the sound is glitched (I think that its linked), and I can't trigger any Incendio spell (so I'm stuck and have to save/reload the game). Had the same problem into the Early 4-Eyes room, couldn't trigger Verdimilious. Last one was during Voldemort cut-scene (just before the last battle). He just walked out from the camera and .... that's all, the camera stay blocked and just had to shut down the emulator.
Did you ever had theses problems before ? Does it come from the emulator ? Or the Iso ? (I tried 2 different Iso, had problems twice). Thanks for your reply !
Hi everyone ! Saw in the last videos of ladderboard (Slendbed & UglierGoblin) that you found a skip into Forbidden Forest (when you dodge last Incendio). Can you explain how to do this trick ? I tried but could't have this "walk into wall" thing. Thanks !
Edit : Found !
Does it fixe the difference between PAL and NTSC ?
Okay. Can a moderator delete this thread so ? Tanks !
From my point of view (new runner, and first game I run), I can't really have a NTSC PS2 (living in Europe). Maybe it's the same for a part of runners. Emulators seems more universal. Can the Emulator have this FDS option ?
