Please change the subcategory name to "Glitch" or something else. Its painful to see the category name being called "Glitch%". I know i dont even speedrun the game but i just noticed that.
ive submitted a run a bit go (around 1 week) and thought id take a look if the moderators are active bcs i dont wanna wait months for my run to be verified.
Turns out they all have not been on the site for 1month+ and 2 of them longer than a year. i wouldnt mind taking over moderation but id want someone else that actually knows the game a little more than me. since i dont even have a run on the lb. Is anyone able to contact them? i have contacted them with the stuff they have linked but no one responded yet.
I think timing should be changed to first frame of spawning into the world and end when you kill the last enemy on the planet you spawn in.( like b4)
The current start is unfair for people with long load times and changing it to first frame of the player spawning in is just more fair
I forgot to show that im not using mods. ive got a clip shortly after i did my speedrun showing it tho. (thankfully xbox gamebar got a feature to record the last x min.)
can i send a vid of me showing that i didnt use mods or is it ok if i dont include that. ( in the vid that shows that ive got no mods you can see the end of the speedrun so you can be sure its not a new game)
i guess ill just submit my run for now and ill see
ive made a discord server, could be pretty nice since its easier to communicate to each other.
Here is the link: https://discord.gg/aPxu7rPMFY
Is resizing the window allowed?
What even is allowed?
There are no rules.. please please set up the rules and categories. If you cant do it , i dont mind setting all that up.
the game is far from being finished and is constantly getting updated. if it only were like 2 updates that are big and predictable.then ehhhh fine but this game will be updated alot and change alot. So having a leaderboard page is pretty useless as you would always need to update it with the new version.
which is a pain in the ass bcs you would either delete runs or create alot of variables.
The game is def fun to speedrun but i having a page maked no sense to me.
also on the side of the mods that added this games leaderboard. i guess they didnt look too much into it.
Also the games name changed ;)
I was wondering if there is a way to search for games by publisher since you sometimes enter that info in the tags and i guess that could maybe be used for that. maybe there is a way to do it and I just overlooked it.
So yea what I mean in short could i search for speedgames from Bethesda for example?
maybe it should be named "10 floors" since it seems like there isnt a real finish.. at least when i played it last time there wasnt any. so naming the category any% could get some confusion
#info Be sure to enter the discord to get these infos in a somewhat nicer way
#fps There has been a few problems with uncapped fps. from now on you will need to display your fps , to make you you have a maximum of 200fps .
You can display your fps by pressing "Tab" and typing "fps 1" .
#Rebinding There has also been a lil problem with rebinding . For now simply rebinding things is allowed but rebinding things to the mouse to spam crouch for example isnt allowed.
more info in game rules !
We wont accept runs without fps display.
To the bois that arent in the discord.
The Leaderboard has been split into glitchless and standard (with glitches)
Be sure to read the rules and submit your old individual level speedruns to the glitchless category . All full runs have already been sorted into the Glitchless leaderboard.
If you have any question be sure to ask!
#intro
Since it doesnt seems like anyone knows how to . I have researched the depths of speedrun.com and looked at the code of this big mystery. After days or even weeks of research i have finally found out how to do it. How to enter times right on speedrun.com
#Taking a look
We will first take a look what time our friendly game karlson provides.
This is a fine example of a time in karlson. On first sight it might seem like its obvious what it reads but if we take a deeper look , we might find out its a total LIE.
#Taking action
entering this time into speedrun.com will reveal the truth
This isnt actually the right time ...this isnt the time we wanted
Now the problem is how on earth do we fix this.
i have found an easy way to do it.
simply add a 0
#kind request please stop entering times wrong thx. also if i have send you a link to this dont worry you arent the only one that did it wrong... its just that every new runner does this mistake and im tired of telling them not to enter the times wrong /how to do it right and always editing runs to fix the mistake.
nice ive found a way to skip gravity bridge like lone cube is being skipped (avoiding checkpoint ) will use it in a 100% inbounds and any% inbounds run soon
idk how to announce shit outside of the discord server... lmao
You can now submit Dc runs even if they arent faster then the normal Any% .
This doesnt mean you can submit your Any% runs in Dc category. you actually need to use the glitch ;D
EDIT: I have also added a new rule about capping the fps .
You arent allowed to uncap the fps in karlson when running dc. This means it should be at max 240fps .You also need to display your fps in the game , so we can be sure you didnt uncap it or go over 240fps.
Uncapping it can give you more crouches per second (thus making it hardware dependent)
If you dont know how to display the fps go to this guide: https://www.speedrun.com/karlson_itch.io/guide/q7ap1
Let me know what you think bout that and if you got any questions.
You can also report uncapped dc runs if i have missed some ( those done before rule change)
#General info
Heya im jannik . i never posted here, so i guess ill do now . im like 2yrs late lmao . i mainly run indie games but i might try bigger games sometime.i watched a few speedruns before i made a src account but never tried speedrunning myself.
#First contact with speedrunning
i first came in contact with speedrunning / speedrun myself when i played a indie game in which i found a few little strats and exploits. I later found a speedrun of the game which rly hyped me up i grinded a bit and with my new found strats i actually got a close wr. The game wasnt / isnt run too much with just a few players ever speedrunning it, but in the end i put it from around 3:50min to 30seconds (yea i found som rather game changing glitches).
#Karlson
Later i would speedrun another small game called karlson (now named karlson2d) . The game didnt have a page and i dont remember if we even suggested one , but i had a little discord of around 40 people with lb .
After that the game dev made another game which in which i also organised the speedrun community. We first had it in the devs own server ,which was kind of a mess ,as the game got a lot of traction and many people speedrunning it. (The game was denied from having a speedrun.com page so we had our own lb on the discord) . We then later moved to a external server ( the main server was really cramped and big. 50k as of now . maybe about half at that time)
This was a really good move haha . As later we / i transformed that server to a game series hub, as the dev would release a little joke game in the same style as the last game. This game also attracted a lot of speedrunners ( The dev mentioned alot about speedruns in his vids , i guess thats why that was the case) Even tho the game is... well a bit wierd , it had / has his fair following and would actually get accepted on src for a page . i didnt suggest it as i didnt think they would accept such a game, but someone else external suggested it and got it on src. Later we would come in contact with a content mod which made it possible to get all games up on src .which rly helped me , since i was partly the only one managing the leaderboards and having the whole thing automated is way better haha.
