If you want to ask people to join you in a speedrun, do that in the discord please just to keep these forums organized.
congrats, however this forum is more for asking questions and less for casual discussion. If you want to discuss your progress though, feel free to join the discord!
Additionally, if you want more info on TY speedrunning, feel free to join the discord and ask any questions you have there!
sorry for the late reply on this! PS2 I believe was added as a console due to playing the game on PS2 saving load time from my understanding. Regardless, it seems that whatever change was made is fine.
that's an extremely arbitrary category and as such will not be added. As a reminder though, just because something is not a category on this site does not mean you cant run it, so if you enjoy racing that with your friends, then by all means continue doing so.
Sorry for the late reply! Yes, just select PC as your console
Personally, I believe this can be allowed. While hypno specifically stated that it is unlike Banjo-Kazooie's FFM glitch (Which for those who do not know uses another file to perform a glitch, one set up before the run), I for one do see similarities. I do see an argument made both for and against this being allowed, but to me the precedent set by games such as BK is that having another file set-up to allow a glitch to occur is valid. Either way, it's still quite an interesting find!
Here's my opinion - First off the category shouldn't exist in the first place. When I did my run and it held as WR for a while, I did it with the purpose of showing people why you need to think about how a category would work before making it. Test for the best requires no skill (In fact, its faster to get almost exclusively zeroes!) However, to answer the question, I'd say keep timing as it is. It's not like RNG is an unheard of thing in Mario party speedruns in the first place.
by the way, I routed 100% a while ago, and tried to run it a few times. However, running on the PS2 version coupled with my disc being bad means my game crashes a lot. Does anyone know of a way for me to get the pc version, as I've been trying to get it so I can finally do a 100% run (as well as any%)
It's more widely known as SM64O however, and as such the name will stay as that.
Alright, I just did it a second time, on video. It wont save time for any% at all, but I think it can save ten seconds if done first try in all levels
Holy crap I just did it on console
We've said multiple times - somebody do a run, show us a finished run, then we will add it.
a cheat code category is pointless, as it doesn't change the route at all and would only save maybe 30 seconds, if that.
nobody has done a run of 0 star yet, or asked. Ultimately, I don't see a reason to add it, as for solo it would be extremely similar to 0 star in vanilla with only a few minor time differences depending on who you play as, and for co-op its similar to 11 star co-op just without DDD. As for swimming in Dire taking ages....really? It takes maybe 15-20 seconds, if that, so i dont see why thats a reason to complain :/
None of the other characters can get the wing cap star as wing cap is kinda broken for them. Also this was already in the F.A.Q, look there first to see if your question is there please to avoid duplicating threads
As one of two supermods for Minecraft: Console Edition ( https://www.speedrun.com/mce ), I was wondering if toycat could be removed as a supermod. His accounts been inactive for nearly two years, and i'm trying to tidy up the leaderboards a bit.
A level leaderboard I believe is really unnecessary, in my opinion at least.
I would really advise not running a random game just for the sake of getting WR. A lot of people seem to believe that the only point in speedrunning is to get WR, however I find it more fun to see how I can improve my own times. However, if you're really hell-bent on getting WR's, just look for obscure games I guess. But try to find a game you already enjoy playing!
