Gario Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I nominate Super Metroid for any future speed runs. I second this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I'll try DKC 2 this Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Does it have to be a 102% speedrun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Does it have to be a 102% speedrun? With a few exceptions like Emu, I think a lot of us are just doing a "from beginning to end" speed run, so probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Taucer Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 With a few exceptions like Emu, I think a lot of us are just doing a "from beginning to end" speed run, so probably not. Ok, I might jump in on this. Don't expect much from me, though; I've only beaten the game once before -- though I did get a 102% clear.

Emunator Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Actually, I've been itching to try out an any% complete run, I might just do that. Or I'll attempt both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 I probably could attempt a 102% run, but I dunno. I'll probably just do an any % run just to spare me the time & effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gario Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Yeah, any % run ftw. I'm going to work on getting my runs down to a recordable time if it kills me ... In honor of the new album, of course . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arek the Absolute Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Yeah, we haven't had a regular speedrun competition in 5 yearsMight be a good time to bring them back. Would be nice to see if I can put up a good fight for KSS after winning the original one years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crulex Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Okay, so just did mine and for a non 102% run, I got a personal best of 1hr 50 min. Considering that Web Woods and Bramble Scrambe took up most of my time, and I didn't die much besides that, I'm pleased. Now I need to try a 102% run (I'm thinking it'll take another hour and a half because I forgot where most of the bonuses are.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajax Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I tried my hand at it...but got a game over and said screw it. I got a game over before I even started playing. It seems that my capture card has a personal vendetta against All SNESs, as I can get half decent video quality with any other console. I tried one SNES (the phat kind), and two Super Famicoms with three different cables on both composite and S-Video on multiple games, and on every singe one, there were many random one pixel tall horizontal lines that would be shift to the right by just one pixel to really mess things up. All of the same cables on an N64 would look just fine. Humbug, well I suppose that I could do a run on virtual console, or emulate it, but it just makes me sad as I really want to record a speed run on actual hardware. I suppose another option would be to tape it, then capture it, or maybe even just run the signal through the vcr, then into the capture card to see if that fixes it...

AMT Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Alright, I'm going to try to give this a go tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajax Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 how do you have so many snes systemscan i have one In all actuality, I only have one SNES Jr, and a Super Famicom, while the other systems I used belonged to my brother, that I only had on hand for testing. I suspect that I might just set up ZSNES to do an AVI recording, and go with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpable Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I got 1:55 on any %, better than I thought I'd do. I remembered halfway through the game, down to my last life or two, that the game doesn't auto-save your progrress. That was a lucky recall, I got a game over on the next level after saving my game.

Ajax Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 K, I just finished a 1:44 any% single segment run, and I'm currently encoding it into a shareable format. I'll probably have it uploaded by tomorrow, maybe I can even upload at school where they have a much better connection... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emunator Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Just ran a 1:30 test run on any%... I screwed up a LOT on Chain Link Chamber and Rambi Rumble, so when I do my real run I'll make sure not to mess up that much ~_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajax Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Bah, it takes far too much effort to encode and upload these things. Therefor, you only get low quality. Enjoy! Edit: Link fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halc Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 i may have to try this, but i probably won't do very good (maybe a sonic 1 speedrun in the future would be more up my alley ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajax Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 link doesn't work ... You're right, it was working when i posted. Ho hum, I guess I'll just upload it somewhere else. EDIT: Ok, try this one... Link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
