IMPORTANT Twilight Menu is no longer banned and has been relegated to the new Emulator subcategories. This thread will now be locked.
It has come to the community’s attention that running this game on Twilight Menu, a mod used to run DS ROMs on a 3DS, is faster than running it off of an original cartridge due to the lack of lag. This means that from here on out, using this application will be banned from all speedruns. Subsequently, all current runs done on Twilight Menu have been rejected, and the world record for Any% has gone down from a 1:04:48 to a 1:07:36 as of writing this.
Unfortunately, we do not know why or how Twilight Menu is able to eliminate lag from the game, and we may never know. But the important thing is that using it is banned so that the game is being played as intended, and everyone is given a fair advantage.
Ok, so in that case I’ll have to make a separate category for full-game Android runs if you or somebody else beats the world record on iOS. It would be too much of a hassle to just standardize the rules between both platforms considering how drastic the differences are, so splitting the categories seems like the only logical thing we can do.
Did you reset the game data through noxplayer or through the app itself? Depending on what you did might affect how those premium world unlocks work
Huh that’s really weird, can you send me a video of that?
If this turns out to be an issue then we’ll have to standardize the rules across both platforms to require 120 stars for dungeon of dreams, regardless of if it’s required in-game.
I’d like to have this leaderboard tagged as a webgame and also marked as an unofficial release, thanks 😄
I'd like this leaderboard to be tagged as a fangame, and marked as an unofficial release. Thanks 😄
We have a whole guide on how to play it :) https://www.speedrun.com/paftod/guide/a1vhk
If you don’t understand how to do any of this, you can just download an app called Flashpoint Infinity and play it from there, although it lacks fullscreen support.
(Also the game download link on this guide seems to be broken, here’s the updated one: https://www.speedrun.com/patches/Phineas_and_Ferb_in_the_Transport-inators_of_Doooom_tn0cb.7z )

Hey y’all, just wanted to let you guys know that the application to apply for verifier is now open, and will probably be open for about a week or so. If any of you have the slightest interest in becoming a verifier and think you'd be up for it, filling it out would be helpful so that we have as many options as possible.
We usually never release an application like this to the public (nor have we ever had a verifier in a fancy pants game before), but we’ve been getting a lot of runs lately so we just can’t keep up 😅
Here's the form if you're interested: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdGpKC6ew6HUXeSTstNW3vgO3v4i_MJraPZ730ffjxaEIMu6w/viewform?usp=sf_link
Alright so there seems to be this random glitch that happens in the PC version (probably web too) where some levels get skipped, and it seems to be rng based. In most people's runs, Level 8 and Level 10 get skipped, which is actually pretty normal for this game, but sometimes you also do get one of those levels. It seems to have a roughly 5% chance of happening in your run.
There also seems to be an even lower chance of when a level gets skipped entirely without even pressing the Q key. You can see it happen here:
So yeah if a level gets skipped in a run it should be banned imo. You could easily replicate this by just pressing Q in between levels, so it can't really be verified whether it was actually pressed or not.

So around 3 months ago I requested that @shazamzero be demoted to mod in the Fancy Snowboarding leaderboard, and I was told that he’d be messaged to ask if he’s ok with it, and the person taking my request hasn’t responded. Since he hasn’t been active in the game’s community for a long time and hasn’t even posted a run on the leaderboard at all, I’d like to now request that he be removed as mod entirely, because I’m pretty sure he isn’t coming back. Thanks!
You need to join the Fancy Pants Speedrunning discord for the link to work. If the link somehow doesn’t direct you to the right message then just go to the resources channel on there :)
Can I have this leaderboard tagged as a Webgame please, thanks :) https://www.speedrun.com/pafti
I’d like to have this leaderboard tagged as a multi-game, thanks! https://www.speedrun.com/multifpa/full_game
There’s technically a very early Wii prototype of the game, but other than that no lol, it’s just on Xbox 360 and PS3 for console versions.
If you can get it to work then yeah I don't see why not, but doesn't dolphin only work for Gamecube and Wii games?
I'd like to request that a super mod be demoted to a regular mod on this leaderboard: https://www.speedrun.com/fancy_snowboarding
He goes by the name of @shazamzero, and hasn't even posted a run of the game himself. He's verified runs from 1 user a while back, and hasn't done anything since, and he's very inactive in the speedrunning scene of the fancy pants series in general which is why he won't respond to my dms asking this. I would have requested for him to be a verifier or taken off the mod team entirely, but he did provide the 1st-3rd place icons a while ago.
