yarnfang
Yeah, everyone seems to have their own muscle memory for how to do this.
Stinkek
Then again, the point of a speedrun is to finish the game as fast as possible, not to use all known tricks
Noxus94
you mean we DON'T want to see Obelix run in circles in front of a catapult forever and beyond while in a run? D:
Stinkek
Do you wanna crash your game by using a catapult in Greece or softlock in Egypt? :TotalKappa:
Noxus94
Sure. Who needs PBs anyways! I'll just lose 15 minutes to the egypt elevator passive lock anyways :3
Simaf
Yeah, EEPL is just stupid. Couldn't get it even once in 3-4hours of tries ... :/
yarnfang
I'm getting pretty good at it I feel :)
yarnfang
Can still mess me up from time to time but I can tell what I did wrong most of the time.
Simaf
I don't even know what to do there ... :/
Martyste Tendertail
Feels like I need to record and show the Tardis setup for every single platform
Martyste Tendertail
Like, really every single way we know to play the game
Martyste Tendertail
GC version: Real Gamecube Real Wii Wii U through Nintendon't Dolphin Emulator, 4:3 and 16:9 patch PS2 version: Real PS2 (slim) PCSX2, 4:3 and 16:9 patch PC version: 4:3 and 16:9 patch
Martyste Tendertail
And, I could need someone's help to record PS3 footage...
Stinkek
:WutFace:
Martyste Tendertail
But now I'm having my head stuck in a wall trying to figure how to move a window above the top limit
Martyste Tendertail
Cuz a windowed 1400x1050 game will crop 1 DAMN PIXEL below the screen...
Martyste Tendertail
SO, I found a program called Autohotkey
Martyste Tendertail
And I have a script with it that can hide the title bar.
Martyste Tendertail
However, XXL will *raise* its game screensize if I try to hide the titlebar, and I'm just about to find the ideal resolution that I must apply on startup.
Martyste Tendertail
It turns out, for a 1080p screen, your optimal windowed 4:3 resolution, with a hidden titlebar, = 1398x1025. When using the script to hide the window titlebar and edges, it sorta fails to do so and expands the game window to 1400x1050 ( the real desired resolution ) and keeps every single pixel of the game in view!
