BSI All Mega Jumps maybe could be one but not sure if that's something everyone would be interested in running? The other I can think of is all road rules (Could be split into Timed or Crash Time or you could have to do both to complete the run) again I'm not sure if people would want to run this but it's a idea 👍

Good question actually, honestly I don't know. I'd say let it be allowed unless he beats the current WR by like 20 or 30 seconds

I believe emulators aren't allowed for this game to begin with, if you wish to run this game either run it on proper hardware or the PC version.

Yeah the run I did was a first run however it can be improved as I died on two occasions. Another thing to note is the NG and NG+ side of things since if you wanted to you could complete the game from a new profile or from a already completed save which means doing the run in two different circumstances is easily possible.

Hi there, so recently I decided to do a run of the sequel to this game to see how long it would take to finish from a New Game and it wasn't as bad as I thought.

It was quite an enjoyable run and game for me so maybe we could look at getting a new leaderboard set up for the sequel? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts back on this one :)

Here's my run for context:

As mentioned in the original game, the IL's for this would be odd to have so if you want to play the levels then you will have to do a regular Any% run. Sorry

Greater Manchester, EnglandViperUK5 years ago

As much as we could there really wouldn't be any point in creating them as you'd be the only runner to do them individually plus the individual missions are all part of the Any% run so if you want to do the missions I'd recommend doing the Any% run.

Unfortunately I've reached out to the SR.com mods in the past about this and they said no so unfortunately the two games will be separate for the foreseeable future.

Hi there, thanks for your questions.

  1. Fixed, you should now be able to select Renault as a manufacturer
  2. Stage Evolutions are banned yes however if the championship only allows the Stage Evolutions then you can use them as they are the only car class you can use in that case.

Hi there, I'm a moderator for the Colin McRae Rally series and we have created a page for our multi-game run called The McRae Pentalogy (5 of the first Colin McRae Games ran in order) and I'd like it to be a Multi-Game for it's category extension please?

Here's the link to the page itself: https://www.speedrun.com/the_mcrae_pentalogy/full_game Many Thanks

Hi there, It's awesome to hear you did a full run of the game, you'd be the first to do so :D

As for the rule thing I don't see why we can't add it to the rules so I will do that now, thanks for the suggestion and it has been added to the rules now.

For context on what a Any% run on the GBA version would look like I did a first run as shown here:

Hi there, Recently I came across a run of this game and saw that it could be completed in less than 1h 30 if done correctly and it got me thinking "How long does it take to complete the GBA Version of this game?"

Well I recently did a test run and you're looking at less than 1 hour if everything goes well, I will say I did notice something odd when noting down mission scenes for the films...

So unlike in the PS2 version where you do several acts per film, in the GBA version they have something different. Instead of just doing the films they get you doing several acts of the different films as a tutorial before you get put into the hot seat and have to do the real stunts with the directors like in the PS2 version.

So do we split the GBA version from the PS2 version in terms of category and have 2 categories for the GBA version or not? 🤔

I mean if you want to time it without loads then that's fine although it would have to be you that would have to do it since I've never done it before.

Greater Manchester, EnglandViperUK5 years ago

Hi there, I recently did a run of this game and found that after completing the Super GP that there is a Special GP after it, so would time be after completing that GP instead of the Super GP or would it be at the end of the Super GP as it seems to be currently?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this :)

It does work, for some reason it only seems to work properly when you click on the cars and select any. I don't know why this is but once this is done it works properly.

Marathon has been postponed until 2020, apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Greater Manchester, EnglandViperUK5 years ago

If it helps with what a 3-Lap speedrun would look like, I did one a while back so we have a time already for those interested :)

Hi there, I recently picked up this game again and found that when looking at the leaderboards that it was mainly IL's (Seems fair as it is a racing game after all) However I couldn't help but notice the main game categories, there's only one and I think we could change that to categories that people could actually speedrun.

Firstly there's the Challenge mode that is in the game, this is broken down in 3 difficulties (Novice, Standard and Expert) now these could be three Misc. categories with the main one being Challenge%.

Challenge% - Beat all Challenge Difficulties in as short time as possible, RTA will be the one that matters here so load times and driving will be important.

Next we have the Support Car Championship mode, now before you think "Wait a minute there's loads isn't there?" Well yes and no and here's why...

The Support Car Championships could be speedruns within themselves and if you wanted to you could have a main category such as "Beat Support Car Championship - Any%" and also since it is all dependent on points and for those completionists like myself - "Beat Support Car Championship - 100%"

The rules for this would be simple, time would start when you select your car and end when you cross the line in the last race for that series. You can use this for the main categories too if you wish.

Looking forward to hearing your responses on this and seeing how you feel about these new categories :)
