What Rodrigo said and you should hold left while mashing A.

I added the categories with Any% just being "everything goes". A "no ACE" or similiar category should probably be added, if someone does crazy cross-game stuff.

Nobody has made an autosplitter for Livesplit yet. The only things that exist are scripts that put a small timer on the emu, but are not completely trivial to set up and only for Any%: http://pastebin.com/a25nBnUc (for Bizhawk with Neshawk core)

For emu I'd recommend Bizhawk: http://tasvideos.org/BizHawk/ReleaseHistory.html Remember to disable rewinding. It has two possible emulation settings (cores): QuickNES is very fast. Neshawk is very accurate (I don't know if it really matters in this game or not).

It's the opposite. There is no japanese smas+smw cart, but there is for PAL and NA. I can add these categories, but for smas+smw any% I see a little problem with the fact that you can do arbitrary code execution in SMW, which may have an effect on the other games too (intentionally or not) and needs special rules.

it just doesn't work on the snes version

no, because the time got changed due to a lag frame in 8-2: https://www.speedrun.com/run/7z0qq24m

How to fix this (without admin help):

  1. Remove the tick at "use as subcategory" and the runs will show up again.
  2. Add a new temp value in the variable settings, set it as default and press the yellow button that applies it to every run without a value.
  3. Filter the list to only show runs with the temp value.
  4. Set the correct value for every single run again until the list is empty.
  5. Put the tick at "use as subcategory" again and restore the old default again and delete the temp value.

I think this would be a good addition, if it's not to much trouble to program. What is the shortest/longest speedrun? or What is a game between x and y minutes? are really frequent questions.

Did the video get deleted? When I changed the timing, I retimed all runs, but a few video links stopped working, so I deleted those as I couldn't time them.

Tutorials of online games are allowed on this site but a real game with an ending like Babysitting Cream isn't. smh

Can it be added?

GermanySaradoc8 years ago

It's a 30fps game, so as long as it doesn't have dropped frames or is recorded at some weird framerate like 20 or 29.97, it's just a matter of loading it in a video editor and going to the start and end frame (in-depth explanation: https://www.speedrun.com/Speedrunning/thread/u2alf - it looks more complicated there because you don't need half the stuff, if you only time your own runs). But I retime all submitted runs anyway. It only takes like half a minute most of the time.

On the Game Statistics page the number of followers is the number of moderators.

I made a category for just this purpose!! https://www.speedrun.com/Clue_1998#Computer You only have to start the game and hope for good RNG. OpieOP

GBA is as far as I know an emulation of the original, but I don't know how accurately it treats stuff like lag and loading times and the framerate is lower. SMB DX handles completely differently.

It would be best to just rollback everything. I like categories as tabs and filters in dropdown menus, but everything else is worse.

Officially there is no VC version, but the Wii disc basically just contains the emulator and the rom, but I renamed it anyway.

void's run is 5 years older and faster by any timing

You should ask a mod on the SMB3 page, but the answer would probably be no, because they don't like the SNES version.

A vote? That's ridiculous. I have written to whitman_price my idea for this issue already, so let me repeat it here: Make him do another session of no reset attempts like the one he streamed, but make him use a romhack or cheat code that subtly changes the game (just as an example: more/less boss health) that you give him right before the stream. Whether he suddenly can't do it anymore or whether he plays just as well as usual will show what's going on.
