First OneHand

Thanks for the support guys, means a lot

It's not the same as what we call a "one-frame", but it is pressing circle on a single frame some time after collecting any eco (not just blue). Can be done with a punch too.

Generally we refer to these as eco rockets, or just rockets.

You dont have to spin or punch on an exact frame to get a rocket of some kind, but to get one with that height it's frame perfect.

If you're doing a run over 1 hour on the PS4 you're gunna need to buy a capture card, which won't be cheap unfortunately. The HD capture card i use was over £100.

If you have the PS2 version that would probably be better for you to run on, it's better than the PS4 version in all ways besides graphics. Also capture cards for a PS2 can be much cheaper than ones for a PS4.

I have no other suggestions personally.

"Do I have to time it in real time?"

No, this is not required. If you can't figure out a timer or anything, that's fine. The absolute minimum is that you record the full gameplay (preferably with audio) from starting your run until you collect the Light Eco after defeating Gol and Maia. If there is no timer with the gameplay, just have a timer anywhere else that YOU can see, to post your time on the leaderboards (submissions require you to enter a time). Or you can simply time the run after you finish. If necessary the mods will re-time it themselves.

"Do I have to time all the levels and actions or can I just time the completion of the game?"

No, you do not have to time anything except for the completion of the game, and as i said above that doesn't need to be done during the run.
