also I thought it was my console, but i realized the problem, Origianl and clone game, with the original mmx8 there's no lag.
n.n and i taken the first boss that i see in my demos.
i agree, is a bad example.

and about the mode:
at first i had planned to do so the speed run in hard mode....
but I came across a serious difference:
in the avalanche yeti stage: i CAN'T defeat the airship in the first try, even if i get a 90hits combo it escape to return again.... and this is really a time drain.
just for that i stop the run in hard-mode

if ever you concluded 100% on hard mode.
Can you tell me how long did it take you?

What do you mean by clone game? A burned iso? I hope you're not doing something that breaks the rules.

As for hard mode, I have no real experience in outside of New Game Plus.

oh noup, fortunately I don't have to request permission to use an iso because the final demos are recorded with a original game, and i have mmx7 too.
if all goes well, i will plain submit mmx7 in the next december.
i read the rules, but I've had problems is with the capture, but Nate gave me a little help

do you remember if your submit was at 30fps or 60 fps ?

Make a new topic in Tech Board saying you are posting a quality test. Be sure to read the stickies with information about how to post a quality test!

the quality it's ok, nate have already check a segment of the run, and the next step is check if my speed run meets the "requirements" of sda, should i contact puwexil to that? or nate again?

Hope rides alone.

Wow, your skills are really impressive. your submissions should obsolete all current runs if done so. keep going!

as for submitting, just do what the front page says for submissions Wink

Is there a YT upload of your complete run available?

Well, if in doubt, any moderator should be able to help you find the right one, I do believe.
I don't think nate has so much to do with verification as with the technical stuff. puwexil or Flip might be a better idea, but I'm not sure, so just fire off a PM if you haven't already, and I'm sure one of them will set things straight.

sahailaway, I saw a PM thread from you on this run a few days ago, but it disappeared shortly after (which is usually due to the author deleting it). Are you still planning to submit this run?

@puwexil:
Yes: I sent you a PM with the details of my speed run and the links of the mp4 file. But I made a wrong to split the file to upload to mediafire.

abotu the speed run: Everything is in order, I had some criticism but it seems that is not grounds for rejecting my project, at the las the improvement was 8 minutes of the current best time
I'm uploading it again.
when I have the new links I will contact you again.

if all works ok: I will submit mmx7, dead space, x8 best 100% and any% time

You've made me curious, what sort of Dead Space run was it and what was the game time on it?

-Any% normal or easy mode Maybe less than 2h 40m without NG+ in single segment
-100% aprox 3h 30min in impossible mode. in segmented run

I really prefer run in Impossible
but apparently the categories are not defined for this game Undecided

i'm afraid to impose a brand in Impossible mode and then lose it for someone who did it in easy mode

Difficulties are always considered different categories, so an Easy run wouldn't replace an Impossible run. Though they might be indirectly compared, one wouldn't replace the other unless the quality difference was pretty huge beyond the difference the easier difficulty would make.

I don't think there is a 100% category in Dead Space, though, how do you define that?

Dead Space is definitely one of those games that uses in-game time, by the way (show the time of the save at the end).

for dead space, I have always considered as 100% "the complete database", but maybe I'm wrong in that point,
I decided to start with any% mode in single segment [impossible-run]
osey889 is already in the same project but in easy mode
and even though I'm playing in this mode, I might be able to improve the 2:49:00 of him, I've improved osey's times at least in the first 3 chapters.

@Preddy: the run of mmx8 is finished, just now i'm uploading thumbsup

the complete run will be available soon

but the time was improved by 4 minutes and still aaa rank:

I'd definitely check "full database" with an admin before you try to submit a run like that, I'm not sure that's a category SDA will accept. Also that discussion probably belongs over in a Dead Space thread.

Mega Man X8 for PS2 (has enough verifiers) ^-^

Is there a link where I can see how the discussion goes?

You'll see it when the decision is posted, verifiers aren't really supposed to discuss it directly with you. Not that we police it or anything like that.

Jehuty

How long is the verification?
I realized that my video no longer appears in the checklis, maybe that is part of the protocol...
but there are other games that were posted before mine and still in the list with (has enough verifiers).
and once verification is complete. will i receive a mp or i must check in the forum?

Weegee Time

If it disappears from the list it should mean your run has been distributed from the verifiers. With any luck, they should get back to the admins in a week or two. It's a shorter game so that shouldn't be much of a problem. Once everything is compiled, their comments and the verdict will go in the Verification forum.

Sounds like Maverick talk to me.

so I picked up this game after a few years, and im feeling like doing an any% run. while researching this game, I noticed some type of rare metal counter glitch in the run. I couldnt find anything on how to execute this method.

is really easy,
1. get a subtank ship
2. Buy the s.tank and spell all metal as u can, but at last u must have less than 50 left
3. buy a little life rechargue
4. go to any stage and get 1 metal.

then the metal counter will increase.

This glitch is only helpful if u use the navigators, because with the use of one of them u can skip the "weapon get" escene for the 8 bosses in the any% mode.

Now that I think about it, I don't believe the navigators should be allowed in a new game run. They do offer an advantage to using the regular characters, which is in the rules as a no-no, and they're not even normally obtainable on the first playthrough. Plus infinite metal doesn't work on PC.

The advantage in (100% is 40 secons -Glitch time) and (80 secons -Glitch time in any%)
Perform the glitch in lab "spell correct metals" takes about 30~50 secs. on 100%run can be definitely counterproductive
The todal advantage in 100% is near to 0 secs & for any% is about 40~50 seconds.

also there's a disadvantage, alia can't use any armor, pallet don't have copy-shoot & the rapier of layer has blind hitbox
even if they are allowed or not the advantage is very difficult to exploit.

For example: on a stage u can use x with a bost buster with the final escene +10 secs... or use alia with default buster and try to match the X's run.
