Whish I could do this in an any% TAS run that would be grease lightning but sadly the door closes. This route can only be done for IL runs. Dommage!

This run will be difficult to beat. You'll need good RNG and all the latest starts! I can get under 36 in my attempts. For me I might be able to get a sub 35:50!

I'm noticing some performance issues on Livesplit. Whenever I run it on a laptop or a slow desktop, my autosplitter gets stuck whilst streaming on OBS. I have the program timing my in-game time and realtime and I notice the miliseconds are running slower than they should be. Any ideas how to improve it's performance?

Hi All

Samtastic here. I am now stepping down as Super Moderator from Oddysee, Exoddus and New 'n' Tasty as currently I don't have enough time to verify runs. I still remain a series moderator and I will continue to update the board with any games or additional games there might be.

For starters, we have RELIVE which looks potential for Oddworld speedruns in the future - especially all the mods that people have made on RELIVE and eventually maybe Oddysee any% NMG and 100% NMG may be runnable without saving and loading frequenelty! The autoturn and the stop turn glitches have been fixed in the latest builds...

I will still continue to stream online and currently trying Oddysee any% NMG and eventually will do Exoddus any% NoSS and still get people watching my streams. I just won't be moderating people's runs anymore as I don't have a lot of time in my spare time due to work and other things.

Hope you guys understand my position and stay odd!

Now that June 1st is here, we are now using in-game loadless time for Oddysee. The new autosplitter will pause the timer between loading and screen transitions and only time actual gameplay. From now on, we will now compare against loadless times so that performance for realtime runs won't matter. It's all about the frames baby!

Could someone create a column for the following 2 games - Abe's Oddysee and Abe's Exoddus and name it 'Loadless time'

We have adjusted the rules starting from today to include loadless times in our runs.

Your run will be rejected automaticallly form this site if you don't show your in-game times at the end of your run. If you finish a run and doon't show your in-game times, then I will reject your run. If you submit your run and show your in-game times at the end, I will accept your runs.

Hi there

It is quicker to skip Scrabania than it is to skip Paramonia.

You need to load a checkpoint on the first save slot on where you see the two lights lit up on completing Paramonia and Scrabania. Then you start a run on either the second or third save slot.

Hi Folks

I would like to confirm that two new planned titles have been added to the site. Once the games have been released and people have been playing them, I will update the site with categories such as any%, 100% and maximum casualties.

I will look forward to uplaoding my fan game to my website when it is made. I am working very hard on this game and will keep you updated.

Regarding Soulstorm, there has not been a release date yet for Soulstorm, but I am preparing the game pages.

Bristol, EnglandSamtastic6 years ago

Yeah.

Bristol, EnglandSamtastic6 years ago

Does anyone know how to skip Paramonia in NnT? Planning to do a Maximum Casualties run and I need to skip Paramonia.

Bristol, EnglandSamtastic6 years ago

We should work on the glitch if it’s useful for speedrunning.

This is an announcement to say that the paulsapp DLL is no longer allowed for speedruns. All runs on the any% leaderboard that have not skipped cinematics are removed .

Since the main Windows port crashes a lot on Windows 10, you may want to consider runnnig the same speedy port on DOSbox which may prevent crashing! I will be trying it today, but DOS version works well on DOSbox. Here's how to get it working.
