Hello everyone.

It's been a very good time recently for Turok, as we have made new discoveries! A new route has been established for Any% using new tech and an Autosplitter has been made by Glurmo for this route.

However, we've also made a discovery that adds a new requirement to all new submissions going forward. It has been proven that the higher your FPS is, the faster you'll move in the game.

Players could play the game on a 144hz monitor and achieve a maximum value of 63 FPS, while players stuck with a 60hz monitor could only achieve a maximum value of 62.7.

To ensure competition is fair across the board, we've decided to implement a rule stating that you have to cap the game's FPS at 62.4 for your run to be valid. If your FPS exceeds 62.4 at any given point in the run, your run will be rejected to the leaderboards. To prove this, you need to display your FPS at all times.

The number 62.4 was chosen as the FPS limit as it can easily be reached on any patch that isn't current, regardless of hardware.

You can do this through the use of the Nvidia Control Panel and Steam, or Rivatuner if you don't use Nvidia based hardware. I personally suggest using Rivatuner.

Here's how to cap your FPS:

1. Boot up Rivatuner
2. Press the green "Add" box and navigate to Turok's .exe and select it
3. Press the blue "Setup" box and uncheck the "Display integer framerate" box
4. On the right side of the main window, enter "62.4" as the Framerate limit and hit Enter
5. On the right side of the main window at the bottom, enable "Show own statistics"

Ensure Rivatuner is always running when you are streaming / recording your runs. If you are using OBS, ensure the Game Capture of Turok allows for Third Party Overlays (found in Properties) to ensure the Rivatuner display is not spazzing out.

If you have any further questions on how submissions are handled, or if you want help setting anything up, feel free to join the official Turok Speedrunning Discord, we are always happy to help.

Happy speedrunning!

Wow! You guys have been keeping busy, great work on the new discoveries! I never thought the time would be remotely close to sub 30 back when I ran actively, I'm gonna have to get back on board at one point.
