This run is a little suspect but its all good. In the future try not to forget to show the settings and hopefully no crashes ect. Saving especially on PSP is super worth it for safety. Best of luck in your future runs.

@Glitchedd

Just to give the loads that I tested for future reference.
PCSX2 1.6.0 FastDVD (Banned): 1.85s
PCSX2 1.6.0 No Speedhacks: 2.85s
PCSX2 1.7.5711 FastDVD (Not a Speedhack, so dubious ruling): 3.90s
PCSX2 1.7.5711 Stock: 7.00s
Console (Glitchedd Run): 7.00s

^ This is all true, but yeah if you lag on 1.6.0 then go ahead and use further versions, if not use 1.6.0 for some time buffs from loads and speedhack settings. No harm no foul.

Not sure you will feel much to it at all in this game, but yeah it is something to note. Not sure if there is much to any lag difference but newer versions will run better on worse machines of course.

Good Job, Great bosses in particular, tough on losing your way a few time and getting spotted in the stealth mission. You could have used a bit more backstep guard cancels for movement in some places as well. On first Dad fight you could also have equipped Dai with his earlier Super to kill because lightning damage resist, but i'm sure you know since you swapped to it on the next fight. Keep going and best of luck!

Yeah RTA time stops when the HUD disappears. Great Job!

I have put them in place. They are as follows for now.

• On NG we have a few additional restrictions to prevent over leveling and or grinding weapons.
• Level is Capped at 10 * Chapter Number except on Chapter 1 in which you must use a fresh save file.
• Weapons must be obtainable in the difficulty you are currently running from the Chapter previous to the Chapter you are running. (Unless DLC)
• You must not have entered "Citadel Mode" at any point.
• Please show your Character Stats Screen for proofing at the start of your run.

Yeah please do that and give me the video so we can loosely see your Levels and I can set the caps at loosely +3 or so whatever you get.

If we do Individual Chapter NG my thought on how it could work are as follows:

• Designate a Character Level Cap that varies based on which Chapter.
• Can only use weapons obtainable in the chapter previous to the one you are running in the same difficulty that you will be running on. (Unless using DLC)
• Must not have accessed the "Citadel Mode"

1. A "No DLC" and "DLC" Variable will be added.
2. This should likely be reformatted. It was put in place by the previous mod (They didn't have NG). Either it will be added as a category and only be NG+, or we can get together and establish conditions in which a save can be used.

Thanks for the questions, I will be reformatting the board layout today to fix a bunch of issues. If you have additional suggestions ect please let me know.

Its likely that this time beat his but IGT in this game is massively unreliable and can pause due to a lot of different factors. An example of this is the way it rounds through truncating the value allows you to save over a second of IGT per fight by ending fights with High decimal time values so an example is I get a 5.99 COUNT fight and the game records the fight as 5. It also pauses from certain supers and pauses more or less from certain types of death freezes.

Correct

I think you need to clarify further because Secret History already has its own category. Although generally to do it in NG you would have to complete all unlock conditions as part of a fresh save. But NG+ Secret History is already a category. Are you perhaps wanting a category for Nobunaga + Secret History or something?

You may perhaps be referring to "Objectives" those arent required as part of the speedrun. 100% refers to completing both paths top and bottom not the objectives. As long as the mission doesnt outright fail the entire mission you are fine to progress.

For now I have added this clarification to the rules as well as changed 100% to be called All Missions to reduce confusion.

No problems. Feel free to run it and as long as your screen isnt obscured or sound issues then you will likely be fine.

Yes, I also added it to the rules for clarity. Must have slipped passed me when I grabbed the original board.

I agree with the above sentiment. Please do a run of the game as its great to have more players play the game. Worst case we add the PS3 category as stated above. Its good for everyone if your run exists and is posted as others will be able to see the differences between versions.

Thanks Art_Izon for going through all the effort and working with the community on these changes. I am glad to see more runners for this game and love all the community support shown from everyone.

I personally dont appreciate being lumped into asking for this because I am Arts friend. I stated what I stated because I have been a mod for a long time and we manage a lot of boards and marathons. I personally do run this game and this wasnt him calling me over or something. I came because I run this game and noticed the board was very weird looking and I couldnt even find the run the board said was there. (It happened to be because SRC shows runs for non verified runs) Everything I posted and asked for was independent of some perceived friendship that you assume we have.

Second I stated that having a community vote would make the most sense, if you have people who watch your streams that will come in to vote on the category staying then that makes sense. I just dont agree with making a large amount of categories and not voting for it to stay a thing or not when their is community divide. In regards to mods not acting in the communities interest that definitely happens but thats a violation of rules and for example this got brought up in "Naruto Storm 4" and the super mod there was removed and replaced. I am a mod of a lot of anime games and we run a lot of events worldwide for charity and I work with a lot of mods daily and this stuff comes up a lot and we try to work with those mods for the benefit of communities all over. I have nothing against you or anything personally I just think fixing the rules and adding or removing the categories that runners want is good for the community of the game. I can submit some runs if you want but at the time I was going to submit them it wasnt a possible category to submit (I ran Max level Characters and used glitches).

TLDR: We can run a poll and ask the community what they want done. Nothing I did was out of my perceived friendship its all for the community of this game. Multiple people contacted me about it.

I think its fair to change it to be an annotation as its been asked by 3 community members already. Siting rule 1 of the website.

If you add two sets of 100 weapons it would make the board have 29,120*100*100=291,200,000
