United StatesI've been wondering how to get the 5th key in Aztec. I know you do DK's air attack near Dogadon's face, but I don't know the specifics of it. Also, can it be beat by DK in Fungi Forest or just Aztec?
Sorry! I didn't know most of that stuff so thanks for filling me in!
Also, you get about an extra 10 seconds added to your time, because the timer starts when you first open the file, which is why the file is usually 'AAA', not 'WR'. And by not following the rules, that means your run doesn't count, which means I still have the WR. That is until you do your next load of laundry.
So my reasoning behind this is because, through reading other forums, people want shorter runs. I've seen comments about how people think it might be too much to memorize all 20 tracks, and then re-memorize them for Silver Coin challenges. So, I thought it would be neat to have a short category that, unlike Plane%, Car%, and Hover%, is an actual part of the Adventure mode. Also, if people got good at this mode, the difference between 1st and 2nd place could be by tenths, even hundredths of seconds, and along with the RNG of the first boss, it would just be an awesome thing to run and see the other competition!
Also, another Category Idea: Taj% Goal: Beat All 3 Taj Challenges in vehicle order (Car, Hover, Plane)
Timer Starts: When you start Car challenge
Timer Ends: When you finish Plane challenge
Conditions: Any character can be used, but T.T is recommended. No magic codes are allowed. Turning off music is allowed. Diddy Kong Racing cartridge is recommended. Wrong warp is allowed, but why? Resetting to save time is allowed (BUT WHY?). Emulator is banned.
Point?: You think 'All Minigames' has a tight gap of error, oh baby you ain't seen nothing yet.
And about other types of runs, I could definitely be one of the top 45 runners on 100%, even with the version 1.1 cartridge that I have, I just haven't done (a legit) one yet. I did do an 100% with a friend, but magic codes aren't allowed, so making a JOINTVENTURE run like the one we did doesn't count (We would've been a solid 63rd place). I am going to attempt more 100% in the future, but I don't even have the right version of game to try Any%. Hopefully, I'll be able to someday!
Also, why did you, not just beat, but have to blow my time out of the water? I'll have to go change the layout again...
Thanks for responding! Cool to talk to the fastest DKR runner.
Also, after further examination, the first frame of '1st' shows up at 8:48.52 (if you play the video at x0.25 speed and pause on and off at around 8:55 you'll see it), making that the actual 'WR'.
I'm not new to DKR Speedrunning, or speedrunning in general, but I just signed up for speedrun.com so I could post my runs, and I was wondering if you guys could add this new Misc. Speedrun category to the DKR Speedrun scene. I call it 1stBoss%.
1stBoss% Rules Timer Starts: -when you open a file on Adventure
Goal: -to get to and beat the first boss level as quickly as possible (you DO NOT have to get the minigame key)
Timer Stops: -when you cross the line or the 1st place pops up on the screen (for the new glitch Faschz found)
Conditions:
- Any character can be used, but T.T is recommended. No magic codes are allowed. Turning off music is allowed. Diddy Kong Racing cartridge is recommended. Wrong warp is allowed, but pointless. Resetting to save time is allowed, and also pointless. Emulator is banned.
