When can we play the game again?
^Can you list one example of a strat like that that I'd only find in a video? Jw :)
Wtf how lmao. whats like an example of it loading data from another file haha
Another day with it impossible to compete correctly on speedrun.com in my favorite game. Cool!
Can we get rid of this shit?
My items lightning cup run just got beaten by somebody using no items which made it say "Rhodechill your WR has been beaten".
How is that even the same competiton? If I LIKE items, I have to play a completely separete type of gameplay (itemless) just to compete? Again, this isn't a "see which mode is faster!" thing. It's a "see which player is faster" thing.
In fact, someone should go put mkwpp and mkwrs and possibly some others in the resources tab.
MK8 does it.
^That site caters to the #1 rank only. Great for WR vids.
MKWPP caters to ALL ranks, incl. #1 (usually). Good for competing in IL's at a non-WR level.
I think mkwpp has like 90%+ of the WR's on there anyway, just navigate to the other site for the hyperlinks. (oh and in the less than ten percent chance the WR is missing from MKWPP there's an amazing chance you'll fine #2 or #3 worldwide)
Coming back 4 weeks later and...
How the fuck has this not been fixed yet? This is legit unplayable. I've completely ceased my speedrun.com activity since this change. Not to be rude but at this point I kinda have to - how could such an idiotic, horrible, game-breaking, competition-ruining thing come into play? No community members were even asked about it
I already thought strategic/balanced items for misc cups weere going overboard now it's just completely a curse now. not even that but the drop down menu hasn't even been fixed it says sometyhing like
a b c d Items Items Items Items Items Items Items Items m n o p
yeah id imagine that'd be pretty easy to pull off
for max authenticness:
Play on dolphin, wire audio/video signal to a regular TV, then record that TV's screen with a capture card so it looks fuzzier or something. plus im sure u can adjust dolphin settings to not look as crisp.
67 categories and half of them are already pretty fucked up
Our leaderboards should start having 100-200+ entrants per chart before we start adding more tbh we have SOOO mcuh!
Like fuck, guys.
also, want IL runs? mkwpp.com
This is horrible. Horrible. We don't play to get to know all the fun little modes and shit. If you want to, fine. But this forces this. We can't be masters of driving or item usage anymore. It's now a mastery competition of fucking knowing which mode is faster. This requires test runs and shit. If someone beats my BKT using a different item set, for fucks sake, in my mind, they didn't beat me. what a lame chart. iff items should be separate. also, there's a glitch. if you click the 'filter' button under the misc. tab, it shows a list with the word "Items" over & over and over. there's also a 'show obsolete' button there which is weird because it's already in a Misc. category...
how much does wii u save on mushroom cup speedrun only? the guy wants to know
but no disc game loads consistently
Why does mine though, then?
Guys... see my post from oct 11. something needs to be done.
3-5 tests? My console/disc is always consistent. For example, it's ALWAYS 7.6 seconds before the first "A" input can be registered on luigi circuit to skip the lil cuctscene. never off.
anyway, if what you say is true, that's a significantly stronger reason to just use IGT. (even that rounds off incirrectly, too, lol, but it's still the best option we got by far probably)
I do 32 track runs too.
And no, i don't know how to add it up correctly, admittedly. :(
So we need to find out how much time is saved for the following:
-CTGP with CT's enabled with my stuff enabled -CTGP with CT's enabled with my stuff disabled -CTGP with CT's disabled with my stuff disabled -CTGP with CT's disabled with my stuff enabled -Vanilla MKW
Then all of the above on Wii U vs Wii.
So we'd need -ten- tests just for the consoles I believe :'(
Now, is this as simple as saying "CTGP saves x seconds per track", making conversions possible? Or would an individual test be necessary for EVERY category with a unique number of tracks? God I hope conversions are possible. (Otherwise we'd need -thirty- tests, not ten.) That, or it's REALLY time for the IGT switch.
And yea, Menozen is fishy af.
if someone cant get livesplit, adding up the times certainly takes a while and is actually fairly difficult and certainyl tedious
White wii from before 2007
Saving 10 seconds though in a 4 track run? Why wouldnt they just call it the new wii? like the new 3ds. thatd make them money
Did you not read this?: ''Writing down the times isn't that hard, adding them up though can be kinda tedious.''
I just was playing mushroom cup no skips no items on wii. i am running it through CTGP, but with CTGP disabled. no custom tracks, no custom music, textures. vanilla mkw basically. this is what WR's are ideally set on in time trial mode nowadays.
I don't think the guy Menozen is playing on Wii. Either that or a usb loader, not disc. however, he claims he's playing on a wii with a disc.
His 3lap times are all about 1.7 to 4 seconds slower than mine yet his entire run is only 2 seconds slower when it should be more. His loading screens seem much faster. His LC alone loads 3 seconds faster, although his IGT is at least 10 seconds slower.
so what's going on?
note: if this thread is somehow against forum rules, sorry. is there another thread i could post it in or someone i could contact instead of this does so indeed break the rules?
