Ghosting Ban
Geplaatst 9 months ago door

Starting today, the custom-made build of Half-Life 2 known as "Ghosting Mod" will no longer be used as a valid build for speedrun.com run submissions, as was determined by a community vote held in the SourceRuns Discord server.

If you are currently using Ghosting Mod to submit your runs, we ask that you switch to a legitimate build, such as 5135, 5288, or Steam. 5135 is used for unpack, which can be found in the resources tab, and "Steam" is simply the steam version of the game, which can be found in your Steam library.

5288 on the other hand, can be downloaded through the steam console. If you wish to install 5288, please use this short guide written by PenPerson:

How to download 5288 without 3rd party software:

  1. Launch steam with the -console parameter
  2. Navigate to the console tab on steam
  3. Type in these 2 commands (and wait patiently for the download to finish. It will take a while and there is no progress bar.)
  4. download_depot 220 222 3151477805868332059
  5. download_depot 220 221 2694190745568322895
  6. Navigate to the folder where the files have downloaded. (you'll see it in the console output)
  7. Merge the "depot_222" and "depot_221" directories

What does this mean for you?

  • Runs submitted prior to this rule change will not be removed from the leaderboards
  • Any run submitted using Ghosting in the future will be rejected
  • Unlike 0th tick, this ban WILL NOT carry over to the Category Extensions leaderboards
