@Anyone who wants to install the load remover with livesplit

A lot of people are still having issues with this so here's a step by step reminder on how install the load remover for steam:

1.Download the file

  • The file can be downloaded from our ressources section here on speedrun.com "Load Remover Steam Version 12/01/2018"
  • Extract the file from the .zip folder somewhere on your computer (you probably want to keep near your splits folder or something but it is up to you).
  • Current file name is "Working SWBF2 LR.asl"

2.Write the specific "correct" name of the game in livesplit

  • Official name of the game is "Star Wars: Battlefront II" BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO USE THAT.

  • Right Click --> Edit Splits... Write the game name as so:"Star Wars Battlefront II" (notice of the ":" is not there).

-If done correctly you should see a message above the Real Time and Game Time tabs:"Load Removal is available. (By lako3000)"

3.Install the file downloaded from speedrun.com

  • Still in the "Edit Splits..." window, you want to press the Activate button. Then press Settings.

  • A new window will pop up when pressing Settings. Click "Browse..." and select the Working SWBF2 LR.asl you previously downloaded

  • Once that is done, press OK to close out the Component Settings tab (ignore the options that are under Script Path)

  1. Set livesplit to Game Time
  • By default livesplit is set to Real Time. We need it to be set to Game Time for the script to work.

  • Right Click --> Compare Against --> Game Time

So there you go, if everything here is done right the load remover should work for you. Remember that the only thing the script does is pausing the timer for you, so you will need to start the timer on your own and also press the split button when you reach a victory screen.

Make sure the steam version of this game is to the lastest version.

Happy speed running, may the RNG be with you.
