For Barrels i took the timer (the moment when the game allows you to do somthing) and stopped it the moment Hugo(or the NPC) started one of his animations. Subtract the rest and it should be relatively accurate.

I wish i got some knowledge about autosplitters, we might be in a huge need later on.

We don't ignore minigames, and yes, 99 minus K.O time. Barrel one is just a meme, that you can't skip. For the sake of memes... Barrels must not be excluded.

Yeah, would be nice, because i didn't touched your runs yet.

im not sure if non-mods can add stuff tho, but you can ask mods to do so.

who cares

i mean, it might take a bit longer than i thought, expect to see changes around 14th january. might be faster if i'll reach salamander for help.

already working on it

Same occurs to me, when i was actively trying to replace saves. Seems like the saves i've found were used exclusively for 1.00 / pirated version of the game, and (i suppose) they won't work in 1.03.

Title.

I'll probably downpatch the game, if i won't find any. You can find them here: \Steam\userdata\123123\220440\remote

ng

takes longer to do and doesn't save any time compared to the enemy step doesn't save 2 points, as you still need to spend them at the start of M4 to get camera skip, and instead you're making it 2x osiris and 2x ability menuing => slower even if you'll rotate yourself behind the enemy to save some hp, still takes more time

ng+

makes no sense, you have everything unlocked

Samurai-stuff DLC gives you free 3 points b4 you start the run.

I'm not using them, because theres nothing about it on the rules, and the majority of the runs are NG+, while there's only 3(or 4) NG runs, mine included.

jelly's run doesn't have M1 (vod problems, w/e), while it's possible to get 2 points on M2, and he spends them right away on M3.

Therefore, i came with the question above. If you want to make the leaderboards console-healthy, restrict DLC's, otherwise i see no reason to keep 3 points from the start.

Sure. Thanks.

why would you necro a thread, instead of creating a new thread 🤔

and no, most of the boards require video-proof to get approved, therefore take your time and create one. it's not that hard.

s-god didn't ruined the majority of his run (xd)

marathon was good.

Hello.

Dota 2 leaderboards are quite bad right now, and i'm not even talking about runners. I'm talking about the board itself.

Right now, it's pretty hard to change something, without breaking the rest of the runs in the table, hence, i'm planning to delete ALL non-Current(7.07) patch runs, and move them towards a separate Google Docs Table, and store them there.

Why?

1. It makes the leaderboards a bit more easier to watch. Some categories that i wanted to add are bad, because hey, i can't exclude 7.00 and Legacy "patches" from it. Moving to the Misc. won't solve the problem of the runs being lost one day or another thanks to my manipulations to the board. Hence, the change.

2. It allows me to work a bit faster with the categories/rules/organization stuff, instead of thinking what should i do with the rest of the runs, to avoid them disappearing.

3. We might have a lot of new people jumping in towards Dota speedrunning, and i want to reform the leaderboards to look somewhat fresh, instead of being a legacy dumpster of the game that nobody runs.

I am waiting for everybody, that has runs in Dota2 for your input, because if i won't receive any, >i'll kick in the changes to the leaderboard ~14.11.2017<. That's more than enough to response.

Thanks for reading this wall of text.

UPD: The backup leaderboard will always be here and will be updated, should the new patch come in.

Anything specific i should know about it? SSD/HDD load differences/cutscene preloads, language preferences, some glitches based on a precise inputs/movements etc.

Also - some of your twitch links are broken in guides section, so you might wanna update it.

oblivion doesn't have too much to learn, but the things that makes no oob speedrun viable might take some time to get used to. they also got pretty good tutorials about the glitches and route itself afaik.

i rate this post k/10.
