that would be fine, but make sure you have the entire game on screen throughout the whole run :)
this was discussed when the leaderboard was split into platforms initially, however we did decide not to include xbox/ps4 as there were no valid runs at the time. the load times on xbox/ps4 are most similar to the switch, so submit runs under the switch category & we'll consider adding more tabs once more activity is generated. thanks!
Just had a run that got Bronze with 18 for Billiards, and then the same run didn't get Bronze with a 167 in Charge. Might want to revisit these numbers.
Quick note on an update to All Stages / IGT timing:
All Stages rules have been edited to ensure that you meet the full list of parkour maps required to complete for All Stages. These are:
Main Lobby BedWars SkyWars Murder Mystery Arcade Games UHC Champs Build Battle Cops and Crims Crazy Walls Duels Mega Walls Blitz Survival Games SkyClash Smash Heroes Speed UHC The TNT Games Warlords Tournament Hall Classic Lobby Prototype Lobby
You must complete all maps in this list in order for your run to be valid on the leaderboards.
Additionally, the implementation of IGT to the runs is for the All Stages category only. This can be submitted as a sum of the individual level times for each stage. An IGT submitted for an individual level run will be deleted, so don't submit it. The reason for this is because loads on different PCs might affect the RTA time of the run differently for each, so IGT is better overall and will be used for calculating runs (eg. 29:08 RTA / 25:43 IGT will beat a run with 28:45 RTA / 25:56 IGT).
Final thing on the same topic - don't submit milliseconds for RTA for All Stages. Not really needed. If you need some assistance on how to submit these, check out some examples on the All Stages boards or ask in Discord.
Thanks.
Hey folks, just a quick update on what we've done to improve the Hypixel leaderboards.
A long-awaited addition of Classic Lobby and Prototype Lobby parkour will be added to the list! I know I've had some requests to do this but we've never got around to doing it. It's now here! (May not last forever.) If there's any other lobbies that we've forgotten, please let us know.
Additionally, we've had some inquires as to the supposed "lagging" of the starting pressure plate of the map - ultimately depending on ping where the server thinks you've started (this can be up to 150ms in some cases). To combat this, the moderators have decided to retime manually the Top 3 runs in every category so as to determine an actual time for the runs.
If you'd like to retime your runs yourself, please be mindful that this is only required for 3rd, 2nd or 1st place in any given parkour stage, and if done so, please let us know in the description of the run that you have.
Due to this new features, we've decided to open moderation roles to the community for a short time. This role will consist of verifying runs and retiming runs in the Top 3. If you're interested, please fill out this form: https://forms.gle/6dT3H1JaVhxXoijVA
This form will close Saturday 6 May at 2pm UTC.
Thanks folks. Happy parkouring!
Adding onto this I'm getting a lot of submissions without milliseconds attached to them. Runs without milliseconds are automatically counted as ".000" and can be extremely incorrect in some cases. Please remember to do this, thanks.
Getting a little bit sick of rejecting runs because they're either linked to the Hypixel forum page or not showing all split segments. Please make sure this is the case before submitting a run.
Reiterating the rules:
"Runs in the Top 3 for each stage require a video as viable proof. All other runs require a full-screen image of all checkpoints being reached and the time."
Thanks.
I'd like to invite all of you to the new Hypixel Server Parkour Speedrunning Discord! We've got a collective amount of information, resources and talking / strategizing spaces all in here. Newly formed!
As the title suggest, two new categories for Training called Gold Medal% and Platinum Medal%? You must achieve Gold / Platinum Medals in all Training exercises. Just an idea.
Hey Woowy, I can see why you could be concerned about the timing of All Stages. Let me answer some of your questions.
Yes, the run is the sum of all IGT of all parkour stages. The only other part of this run is the compass navigation and the /parkour commands, which frankly doesn't seem that appealing to add into a run, so it's the sum of IGTs. This raises a question, would you be able to stop for as long as you want in-between parkour segments? Yes, you would.
However, as I type this, I do think that real time would be a lot more reasonable than IGT, as this removes the big possibility of splicing and forces a "speedrun" sense onto the run with the menu navigations. Obviously, some runners' PCs may have better loading times than others, which does affect the run too. However, until we get more runs onto the board, this doesn't need to be addressed.
By non-stop, I mean doing one after the other, in any order you like, without using /parkour reset. It's a one-time, no-reset runthrough of each course, one after the other. I'm possibly thinking about doing a run to demonstrate the new category, and I will do that in the spare time that I have this afternoon.
I shall change rules and timings now. Thanks for the reply!
Also remove the maps that aren't there anymore, really we only just need All Checkpoints% with the rule of no cosmetics. I'm happy to update all this for you, by the way.
Here's the megathread: https://hypixel.net/threads/parkour-leaderboards-active.1744498/
I'd say remove it, old and outdated. Got a megathread comin' in and all of them are All CPs. Sorry for late bump.
How's it going de Blob Community,
I've been watching this game for a while now, all the runs and the forum posts. You may have seen me in a few of the past forum threads in the past few years, and I've been around. I've been running some Mario for the last year or so and I've got a decent time, but I want to move on to this game and create a community around it.
I've done a few runs around the game itself, resetting out of rage at the final Comrade Black fight. I've watched mike's ILs and am in the process of practicing and doing stuff around Stage RTAs, obviously with no runs submitted as of yet. I've got the Wii and PC Port of the game, and have played through both of them multiple times. Obviously there isn't much around this topic, apart from mike's Stage RTAs and sock's Stage RTA and WR Run, but I've tried the best I can and am planning to put some runs together at some soon stage, after my other speedrunning goals have been completed.
So to expand the community, I've created a Discord Server, much like a game such as Odyssey or Mario 64 would have, with official guides and resources to talk and interact with the community. I want to talk with you guys more often than a forum thread, and to talk about strats, skips, any other interesting topic of conversation you might have.
But the main reason I want to revive this community [not like it was ever alive] is because I would like to see my favourite childhood game broken. Absolutely destroyed.
Thanks for reading - OKNEM.
To start? I'd like to invite you to the "official" de Blob Speedrunning Discord Server - https://discord.gg/WCpwMaU
PS - I wrote this once then deleted the tab as I was setting up the server somehow, grabbing all the links. Apologies if this is rushed but this is the second time hehe.
Dunno if there is one already or if one should be made, just putting it here.
New Misc. category for as fast as possible with no deaths? Vallu mentioned it in his WR run, after Chompworks 1. Sounded like a pretty good idea so maybe make a category?
Go to the Intro levels, press Space and then Enter. It'll go automatically then.
I downloaded the PC version of Nv2 and there's an insane amount of lag. I tried updating my Java but the lag's still there. Any reason why? I don't feel like doing a speedrun off the in-game time.
is the pc version exactly the same layout and storyline as wii, @thebluecosmonaut
