Recently a member of the community released a version of Croc that had been modified to run on modern day hardware. Only the rendering and the sound have been modified, the physics and the character movement have remained untouched.
The current PC version is hard to get to work correctly on modern hardware and OBS struggles to record it, making it harder to run this game. However this new version works correctly and OBS can record it like any modern game.
If this was a big game i would suggest we make it a separate game or category, but due to how small the PC leader boards are, and it helps reduce the boundary to entry, i propose we allow runs for it on the PC leader boards. Perhaps with a note in the description of the run using this version or as a variable on the board if distinguishing versions is important.
2:20 "When you turn around, he now jumps" "the physics were changed, so croc now controls much smoother"
Doesn't sound like only rendering and sound where edited?
edit: I was told, that it's just a misinformation in the video, and the physics are indeed untouched.
Yes sorry forget to mention that the guy in the video doesnt know anything. We've talked with the dev himself, they are unchanged
A new category, decades in the making, has been added to the croc leaderboards.
100% Hoverless is now a category for PC and PS1.
Happy Croctober
