SwedenDid you ever start the game with the original exe after installing the speedrun edition? Thats what I did and the game was very slow regardless of how i started the game (restarting pc didnt work).
I uninstalled the game, restarted my pc, reinstalled the game from the ISO, installed speedrun edition and moved the original exe to a new folder so i would never start the game with it again. worked fine after that.
PC/Console Assisted/Standard/Hardcore/Nightmare/Inferno 60/Variable Any%/Low% NG/NG+
This is what we have to work with right? 120 will probably be added since RE2R has it so I won't even bother arguing against it.
Anything else on Extended Categories
MrPopo333 is right. You are only allowed to use what the game itself offers. You could for example set aim to CTRL, the game doesnt know the difference between left and right CTRL so both can be used.
Then you would have 2 keys for aiming but there is a catch. In RE2 when 1 key is pressed the other key gets disabled. So you both increase the mashing but you also increase the chance of dropping your aim.
My last post about the board can be ready here: https://www.speedrun.com/re2remake/thread/oefcq/9
I made an example on how things can be fixed on the UC board and I wanna explain it.
Tabs: Hardware and NG/NG+ PC and Console are placed as tabs so we can make exclusive sub categories for them. Framerate will for example only be displayed on the PC tabs and not on the Console tab. As for difficulties you will only have Standard and Hardcore for the NG tabs and no subcategory for NG+ since assisted is only allowed.
PC (NG) explained: Subcategory1: Scenarios Subcategory2: Difficulty Subcategory3: Framerate. 60 (most runners can achive a stable 60 fps which will make this the most fair category, it wont be hardware dependent. 120 (I never agreed to accept 120 and people can read the reasons for this in the post i linked above, it is however too late now to remove it.) Unlocked (People who have the hardware and dont wanna use Major Glitches can push the game to its limit) Subcategory4: Glitches. (No Major Glitches (these will have to be defined in the rules) and Major Glitches for OoB, item duping etc.
I am well aware that this leaderboard setup isnt the most beautiful one but it solves pretty much EVERYTHING that people have problems with.
As I said in my post, these things needs to be solved NOW, yesterday would be even better. The longer we wait the harder it will be to get things in order.
Lastly I wanna point out this ridicouls thing about pausing the game in order to lower ones graphic settings to achive a higher fps. Just run the game on low from the very beginning.
checked the submission and I can now see the video.
Verified.
oh sry now I understand.
I'm out of ideas sorry.
Monitor Capture: RE2 Game (1st monitor) Window Capture: LiveSplit (2nd monitor)
Can you test this?
that's monitor capture in OBS/Xsplit. surely you can use a different capture option to capture livesplit on the 2nd monitor? worked for me with both streaming services.
Nothing really changes routewise does it? Feels like this would be like if super mario kart would have a category for each character. Would just be pointless.
oh I thought you played in window mode. Only idea I have left is if you are now playing in boarderless window then try to change it to Fullscreen.
Option > Controls > Cursor Lock
there is an option in the game that prevents the mouse from going outside the window. if you activate it and want to go outside the window you can press ESC and then win+tab.
GrowthKasei had this happen on Claire A and he thinks this happens if you skip the cutscene too fast.
This will be my final post in this thread.
I proposed earlier a solution that would benefit everyone which is 60fps and variable. 60fps would be fair for everyone bc I'm certain that everyone here can achive a stable 60fps by tweaking some settings. Everyone would be on an equal playing field. Variable is provided by the game and combined with OoB it makes it the true Any% and should therefor stay here and not be moved to EC, its the fastest way to play the game and people who had the hardware could achive the best possible time there is.
Then people wanted 120fps. Here's my problem with it:
120 is NOT an equal playing field. Everyone will NOT be able to achive a stable 120fps. It is a way to devide runners instead of keeping them together. The reason people want 120fps is because of the OP knife, they think 60fps is too slow and they dont want to run on variable cause they will be at a disadvantage. So let's ask for a higher framerate. Biggest problem about this is that in the future people will ask for 144, 165 etc and you will NOT have an argument against it without contradicting yourselves. If you allow it once you can allow it again. So you might as well allow all kinds of FPS's from the start. It will be a total mess.
Secondly is that most people are on 60hz who now would need a 3rd party program to overclock their monitor in order to play at 120fps. Sure they could stay at 60fps if they want which would make 120 even more pointless bc it would have even fewer runners.
I dont see any valid reasons why 120 would even be a thing tbh.
I've been on SRC since the start and i've seen everything, drama, bad moderation, terrible category setup and I do not believe that this is the right way to go. This is a new game, it is extremly important that things are done right at the start otherwise it will catastrophic in the end. The changes we will do this early will affect the game on SRC forever. Going back will not be an option at that point. That's how I think about it.
Whatever happens I hope that people will enjoy running this game and find new stuff that everyone can benefit from.
So we're doing CursedToast's idea?
Framerate will be set as a variable and the true Any% (OoB) will be moved from the main board?
OoB cant be in category extension because it is the true Any%
Other upcoming categories will be added to the Category Extentions.

BE SURE TO FOLLOW THE GAME
indeed. sound swap and costumes are allowed as long as they dont alternate the original release of the game like hitbox and such.
