These are some pretty shitty news, I must say. Although it makes a lot of sense that's what's been going on, I guess this now basically means that we'll have to make use of a 3rd party program to constantly lock the framerate at 60, and to always display fps on screen?

What did you use to lock the framerate, and is it reliable enough for everyone to use without it maybe failing mid-run and unlocking the framerate for a couple minutes, which would invalidate the run?

Not really. If you look at other games' leaderboards you'll see that a lot of submissions don't submit the RTA time, but since you're using livesplit for the load remover, and it shows both times regardless, you might as well submit both for good measure, is how I see it.

Sorry for late reply.

Honestly, it seems like you've tried just about everything, and I can't seem to think of any reason why it wouldn't work (since other scripts work I assume it's nothing as simple as forgetting to compare to Game Time). What I find even weirder is the fact that it doesn't work on neither your PC nor your laptop.

Maybe try the developer version of Livesplit and see if that makes any difference (with the scriptable auto-splitter and such)?

Otherwise, I'm sorry.

This is absolutely the right place to ask about this.

Can't say I have a direct solution for you though, as it should work "out of the box", so to speak. If you're absolutely sure that every setting is correct, then where are you testing the timer? I ask because there are some screens which you may think are loading screens, but actually aren't (it's easiest to just load between two profiles, since it'll always load there).

If I recall correctly, there was mention of problems with a 32-bit version of the game, I think, so if you could force launch 64-bit version, that might fix it?

Just let me know if nothing helps and I'll try to look more into it.

I don't know how I never realized this. Seems like this explains a lot of the times where it felt like I did it perfectly but didn't get OOB.

This was definitely the hardest trick for me to get my head around as well, mostly because there's not a lot of clear-cut explanation on it (from what I could find, at least).

In short, what I do is:

1. Take enough damage to be 1 hit away from death.
2. Activate the terminal and wait to get hit again.
3. Move right to the door and activate it.
4. During the "transition" from using the door, exit the OVC.
5. During the animation, I basically just spam Turn.

Doing that properly should put you in the glitched OOB state. The timing for Turn after going through the door can be a little tricky, since you need to basically activate it as soon as you can. Like Onin said, you can end the first Turn right as it triggers, because you don't need it at the terminal, but I have personally always moved to the door during the Turn. I don't know if it really matters, but that's how I do it at least.

Cheers!

Autosplitter script has been completed. Now we just need leaderboards to show IGT, as well.

Hey all,

With the help of our good friend VeritasDL there is now a fully functional script for removing load times available for Livesplit. This should greatly even the playing field for all runners.

Keep in mind that this script does not autosplit, it only times IGT.

To setup the script properly:

1. Install Livesplit 1.6.9 or later (downloading official release will always be this).
2. Right click > Edit Splits
3. Enter "Transistor" as Game Name.
4. Click "Activate" to enable Load Removal.
5. Set Livesplit to compare against Game Time (right click > compare against).
6. Enjoy your Load Time Removal!

Livesplit can be downloaded here: http://livesplit.org/downloads/

[big]Troubleshooting:[/big] My timer isn't pausing when loading! There is a chance that the script will not work if you start Livesplit before starting Transistor. If this happens, deactivate the script, and re-activate it again, and that should fix it.

EDIT: No longer requires dev build or Scriptable Auto Splitter. EDIT 2: Edited for clarity.

The reason a 3rd party program would've been needed is because there's a chance that Transistor doesn't play nicely with ASL. However, said program can be replaced by a livesplit component.

Just wanted to point that out since it makes the consideration of a 3PP irrelevant.
