Michigan, USA@TheGrandGumby Then we can add hit markers, martyrdom, and AC130's...
The whole point is to keep it as close to vanilla play, regardless of sourceports...
For the Last 8 Months, I have been optimizing heavy use of Out of Bounds glitches, to speedrun multiple versions of DOOM for home consoles. Nearly all the original console ports for home consoles in the 90's used the Atari Jaguar version of the game as a base, and allow the glitches to work cross platform.
With consideration to the mess it was adding each version individually to Speedrun.com, the CE board here will help keep the other Games boards clutter free. New ways to complete the game, like without a blue key, or marathon runs of a certain amount of times played through full game. Here we will keep detailed statistics on each level, and the new ways being found to run this game.
One version will not compete against another, as the board is set to allow submissions of a particular console to compete with said console version only.
For example, GBA vs GBA by default.
32X and GBA can be in the same category.
But you wont see GBA vs 32X on the board, unless you specify it with the drop down menu.
Hope to see some crazy stuff Kappa
As of today, you can beat the entire game without using a blue key!
I've decided to submit a separate board to keep track of further 'random run' categories across all console doom ports :)

Ideas so far: No Blue Keys Gameshark God% Blindfolded 100% Tyson
Just wanted to let you all know some adjustments made to the board recently.
JrmHD91 Has been added as a mod, and is a really great runner! With mods being active as we are, all runs on the board have taken less then 48 hours to verify! So submit them if you've got some good times, we're always looking for more People who played xbox live servers back in the day, and are looking to push this version once again!
-CO-OP category in individual levels has been removed. Until a consensus is reached on timing without the use of in game timer (Not shown in co-op).
E( )M8 is an example of use without the timer, but to do it for co-op runs, and accounting for level loads between consoles, turns off many to timing individual levels in co-op. If the demand is met in the future, it will be added back with discussion on timing rules.
-All Levels now have their proper names in IL's, and the Original Xbox exclusive level, E1M10 Sewers, has been included on the board. The level was added by a developer of the original Xbox port, who made the level when he was a very young map builder, in the early 90's. The map is more for prosperity then anything, but its there if someone decides to grab some free golds.
-Xbox Live Leaderboard Scores: With recent talks, speedrun.com has discussed plans in the future for Highscore submissions. With this being the case, in the future we would hope to support IL's for High scores in accordance to the Xbox live leaderboard 15,000 level point maximum.
15,000 is accomplished on Nightmare difficulty, with 100% Kills, Secrets, and Items, and must go Below the maps Par time. This can be one of the hardest achievements, and few levels still don't have a perfect 15,000 score after the games launch in 2006, so we would like to make the option of video submission of high scores available in the future, if it is adopted over all to Speedrun.com.
Keep running guys! IL's, Episodes, Co-op and more!
Why not divide this board here for the gameboy games? Have classic and New both here, and allow resubmission then? I noticed a few other versions, but just figured it was overseas differences.
I set WR in any% almost 2 weeks ago.
I've tried getting in contact with the Mod on discord to no avail, so posting here in hopes the run is approved. Anyone else out there????
My recent submission is a PB For all cheats, twisted metal difficulty. Would be awesome to see it added! TM2 just had it added, and its been fun to grind :)
If PS4 ever allows PS1 playback :/
But you are right. PSTV could be added also just to get it out of the way :P
Hey just wanted to let you guys Know I run on PS3 (Digital download from PSN), so if we could add PS3 for future runs it would help. Thanks :)
Recent ITYTD PB... got it from a different angle this time O.o
When are we going to have IL 100% for all levels? Start timing on initial landing? I can understand the flight levels have an in game timer, but don't see why the other levels can't be added?
Mod from Xbox board here, would enjoy seeing some others run :)

Timer begins on Episode select, ends on first frame screen melt in E_M8.
If you stream on Twitch, I recommend using tag options/communities like 'retro' 'Doom' 'FPS' or just 'Speedruns'. You could join us on the console discord also and let people know when your streaming PB's https://discord.gg/7UdhBBQ
There is also IL's and Co-op boards! So I'm hopeful other veteran XBLA players will post some RTA PB's. :)
There could potentially be more things (never say never), but very unlikely for some time. The game has many eyes on it, and has for a long time. But its not entirely impossible to say everything has been found just yet..
PS4 Twitch offers a timer during live stream (Up time). Assuming one can do the math after there would technically be a timer on screen to confirm exact timing in that case. So just say start time 0:00:07 End time 1:xx:xx :)
I would imagine, but just wanted to be sure.. xD
The sound is a bit different from my understanding, but I don't have a VCS to compare anymore :(
I wanted to submit a run, but I actually own a version of adventure in some official form, and was curious if it would be allowed for submission? If I actually have the game, I would rather get it on actual console as opposed to Emu.
Atari 2600 Plug N Play, from 2002.
Fog of War and No Fog as separate categories?
For IL's maybe no saves, but for a full game I would say allow saves created during RTA, as some people may save during the later half of the game.
Actually I would be all for Extreme Hard is Misc. :)
But There are a lot of Categories, so I would check with some of the other runners Before.
