Was an incorrect rejection, sorry.

Note: the information for PS1 emulation is now depreciated, superseded here: https://www.speedrun.com/crash/thread/kfh5l

When streaming/recording a run you must be able to capture the window to show what emulator is being used. BizHawk is able to display the status bar below the game window. That must be displayed. RetroArch will have specific requirements below. You are able to run without showing the window. You must also state what emulator is being used when submitting your run.

Accepted Emulators:

• XEBRA
• BizHawk 2.5.2 or newer [Recommended]
• mednafen
• RetroArch (Beetle/Beetle HW)

BizHawk Setup: Games can only run under the cue format.

• PSX > Options
• Select either mednafen mode option.
• Config > Speed/Skip > Audio Throttle To verify that you are running with Audio Throttle enabled you must hit the increase/decrease speed keys [plus/minus] it will display a message on screen.

RetroArch Dedicated Rules: You must show settings of the core settings before/after the run. Your settings must match this:

• CPU Dynarec: Disabled (Beetle Interpreter) [Default]
• Cycles: 128 (Default)
• GTE Overclock: Disabled
• GPU Overclock: 1x (native)
• Skip Bios: Disabled.
• Access Method: Synchronous
• Loading Speed: 2x (native)
• PAL (European) Video Timing Override: OFF Recommended: Keep PGXP Disabled Custom settings are allowed for anything that isn't mentioned such as resolution.

Game Name: Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped System: PS1 (playing on PS2 with FDS) Category: Any% (No Item Glitch) Gameplay Estimate: 50 minutes (Execute me live if I don't get at least 47) Possible Donation Incentives: $10,000 directly funneled into my bank account to keep the SFX on. Sample run video: Description: idiot in a fursuit wipes his ass all over history and time, 105% stinks Availability: anything not midnight to 6am Australian Eastern Daylight Time should work out

Penta is a cheat code so he's banned in categories, All Cups is, as Beta said, arbitrary but even arbitrary categories don't allow cheats unless that's the explicit intent of the category. I don't care much for arbitrary category debate but I'd have to agree with Penta being banned from both Max% and All Cups.

He's decided to remove them because he's "done with the game".

The times will be maintained on the boards until he improves them, or there is evidence of a secondary motive (cheating etc.)

Juicy hot n' spicy chat log:

We decided to remove pretty much all the ILs because 1) we could have never kept them properly up to date and consistent. 2) They were rarely used anyways.

If the category uses FDS then w/e emulator you want, cause the loading screens will never be faster than FDS anyways. If it's a non-FDS category then probably ePSXe 1.9 is the best bet.
