Greetings,

We recently began accepting runs done using the Nintendo Switch Online service. Due to similarity with the Wii U VC version, we decided to combine NSO with the VC subcategory. So please use the VC subcategory when submitting your NSO runs.

Also, as of a couple months ago, the 3D All-Stars leaderboard no longer accepts individual game runs. Runs done on 3DAS can be submitted here.

We're indefinitely hosting the individual runs of SM64 3D All-Stars on this leaderboard, using the same rules as on the old leaderboards. In the future, we may move these onto the main leaderboards but this was the most frictionless way to move the runs quickly.

On a side note, we're also considering adding a CE leaderboard for Shindou and PAL speedruns of main categories.

Are you sick of getting notifications for the garbage posted in here?

If you follow this game, go to "follow settings" on the menu to the left:

Uncheck the notifications for forum threads and posts:

Yes, we know about it. No, it's not allowed on the leaderboards. If it is ever completed and released (intentionally, not an incomplete version leaked) we'll talk about adding it to the leaderboards. I'm going to lock/delete new threads about this

Since 50 star is intended to be somewhat of a legacy any% category, in keeping with the chronological order that glitches were found in this game, we are going to ban LBLJ and remove all runs that do or were known to do LBLJ (if there is no video anymore), sorry to those affected.

If a category allows the intro skip code and you choose to use it, you start your timer at 1 minute at file select. If you don't use intro skip, timer starts at 0 on power on/reset just like normal sm64 categories.

If the category has a built-in intro skip like nonstop or 1000 coins, you start your timer at file select at 0.

Just wondering out of curiosity? I haven't seen any other N64 speedrun use this emulator.

In general, this forum is a pretty bad place to ask questions, the people that respond quickly here are not necessarily the most knowledgeable (if not outright trolls). If you're new to the game, I'd strongly recommend you join the community discord and check the #resources channel which covers most of the basics. If you have a question that isn't addressed there, you can ask in one of the help channels and you'll usually get a quick and reliable response.

If you're interested and have any questions lemme know.

So as you probably know, there are two separate leaderboards for this game, the one on this site and the one on ZSR (http://www.zeldaspeedruns.com/leaderboards/oot/). Many people submit to both, but a lot of people submit to one or the other, so I'm trying to add all the runs from ZSR that aren't currently on this site. That way at least one of the leaderboards is mostly complete.

For now, I'm just adding the times and not worrying about the vods. The twitch vod embedding on ZSR is currently broken, so theres no way to recover the vod url without going to the runner's highlights and finding it manually. On top of that, twitch recently (within the last year I think) changed all the vod urls from /c/ or /b/ to /v/ with different numbers. So basically it's a pain in the ass, but I plan on getting around to that eventually.

If you notice any obvious errors feel free to pm me. I do a lot of this at 3 in the morning so I'm sure I'll make some mistakes. Also, if for whatever reason you don't want your runs on here, let me know.

I also plan on adding in all the old world records for each category so that the record timeline thing on the game stats page is accurate

As you may have noticed, the leaderboards are in a state of flux at the moment. We're trying to implement the same formatting as mk64 (http://www.speedrun.com/mk64), which is similar to what MarioRuns had before we moved the main lbs here.

We know that VC runs are hidden by default and everything is currently listed as N64. We are working to fix this so just be patient, hopefully within the week things will look normal again.
