Added IL board and allowed emulator for it! Emulator will NOT be allowed for full runs as of now, because the sound cutting off is still an issue...

Enjoy running!

I remember that somehow u can access save states... Pls help on how to do that!

I once knew how, but that is a long time ago...

So pls help: how do i change the FPS to 75?

hey guys, i just wanted to derust a bit and i noticed that u cant skip the mid boss in azuras fleet anymore, did the devs actually patch that??? just wow... why would they do that? is there a way to revert to an older version???

Hi everyone!

I noticed that 2 of the first 3 IL runs are timed wrong, and i assume the rest is wrong as well... they are timed slightly faster than they actually are. I commented under Forest and Train what the actual times are. i hope this gets corrected soon!

Furthermore i noticed that some times are timed with milliseconds, and others not ... Imo all times should be precisely timed with milliseconds, especially for the IL board. just having seconds is simply not enough for times like these!

I used this to calculate the times: https://somewes.com/frame-count/

the starting frame i used is the first frame the first loading screen pops until the lights of the LEVEL CLEAR light up.

Hey everyone!

I just started running this masterpiece a few weeks ago, and i was wondering if there has been any discussion in the past about adding a hard mode category?

I think the strats would be different enough to add it, since all enemies gain a 2.5x HP bonus, so all boss strats and even killing normal enemies would be totally different...

The only question imo would be: What are the starting conditions?

• Do we go full NG+ style and start from a finished game (save state) with max HP / lifes / bombs?
• Do we make a save state with starting conditions? (3 HP / 1 bomb / stock lifes)
• Do we run the full 2 loops? (horrible idea, just bringing it up to be complete...)
• Do we use the cheats in the japanese version to access the second loop? (could also work with a save state for faster restarting)

I am considering to at least TRY to find some good boss strats for hard mode, and since killing normal enemies is taking way too long, it will be (i think) pretty much pacifist mode until a bossfight.. so there will also be some differences in some areas with movement and kill strats...

Anyway, would love to hear what you guys think about that!

Hello everyone!

I am the new mod for the co-op board and wanted to say hi and ask a few questions!

1. on the co-op board, the rules have a link for emulator rules that is dead, and there are no clear rules here for the emulators that are allowed. F.e. most of us play over Fightcade2.

Do you guys want to specify emulation rules or shall i just add a forum post over at the co-op board telling people that Fightcade2 is fine and be done with it?

2. there are quite a few runs that have no videos anymore, and the people who made the runs deleted their video hosting profiles and/or do not have a speedrun profile. i am trying to contact everyone, but what is the general oppinion on that topic in here? do the runs stay on? do we remove the ones without video? i would be happy about some input on that!

Thank you & happy to be here!
