Hello everyone, i'm new here and i was thinking of starting with Silen Hill, however i'm having some issues with the autosplitter. I think i did everything necessary (copied emu-help-v2, added Scriptable Auto Splitter with the ASL file, set Game Time), but my timer still doesn't increase and stay still like i'm in a cutscene. I spent all day looking for help on the internet but i could not figure out what i'm missing. So i'm asking for your help (I'm using Duckstation). Thanks!

Hello!

The same thing happened to me when I used Duckstation and activated the autosplitter option in split editing. I solved it by disabling the autosplitter option of the split edition (because that option automatically downloads emu-help-v2 and ASL files that do not work at all with the emulator) and directly copying the files that are downloaded from the "Resources" in the "Components" directory of LiveSplit and with that, problem solved for me.

Hope this can help you.

Greetings.

It worked!

So basically the default autosplitter rewrites the files but for some reason they don't seem to work.

Thank you so much for your help!

Anyone have tips on what this means: "Copy emu-help-v2 to your LiveSplit/Components directory"

I downloaded the asl but what does copy mean? Do I need to extract something? I browse and add this asl and I can't get it to work. Thanks

Make sure that you run both livesplit and the game as admin

I tried that with no results. I've tried so many things now, i'm over an hour into it. Most games you just type in the name of the game and category, make sure the asl is there, hit igt and you're good to go. I wish I knew what made this one different, maybe I could solve the problem. Can I do an RTA run? Pretty exhausted of messing with this.

Still doing research, maybe I have the wrong version. It's version specific, yeah? I'll look into that.

i would love to know tho, im 3 hrs into it and srsly im kinda done to all it a loss at this point..

I'm new to this speedrun as well and my issue in duckstation is it's not autosplitting through the splits it does run the game time properly though.

Not sure if this helps but the in game time tracker is version specific (unless its been updated)... The version I downloaded a few months ago doesn't work with the PAL version. But it does work with the NTSC-J & NTSC-U versions. Its not an autosplitter as far as I'm aware would still have to split manually but the in game timer works fine.

ah ok so it doesn't auto split guess I have it setup right then and I'll just split manually.
