Astérix Speedrunning: xxl

failentin

we are so far away from the base game already, let's not push it even further x) 60 fps will do

hesopesomeso

Fixing them is an option, but time consuming and hard (by patching).

hesopesomeso

It's actually 63-65, and it is also rng Mr. Failentinos :greedoids:

baku69

Or 58 in some points - for me kekw

failentin

and to simplify that random range, I rounded down to 60 fps Mr. Hesus :timetodie:

hesopesomeso

Agreed, slide skip was too much as well.

hesopesomeso

Round down to 0 and we'll be happy :obelul:

failentin

yeah slide skip is so dubious :obelul:

failentin

imagine a speedrun history video

failentin

"and then they shaved off another 30 seconds... by changing the code"

hesopesomeso

No notice of change? Come on, old man :obelul:

alatinn

I don't have the knowledge to determine what is the ideal FPS rate or what can be considered acceptable, but I think there's a range [minFPS, maxFPS] that is acceptable and that wouldn't penalize the runner, especially if minFPS is close to maxFPS...

hesopesomeso

Yeah, but it's to make the run nicer

failentin

yup and I'm glad it exists

hesopesomeso

would you rather have a free time save, or a banned strat (that can potentially work, and is free)?

failentin

but I remember when intro skip was a huge deal because it's not a "true" speedrun anymore :obelul:

baku69

To make sub hour a thing :okelix:

hesopesomeso

It would be possible without it, but hey, I take it :clappelix:

hesopesomeso

Yeah, I can see why. Ain't no way I'd run the game like that!

hesopesomeso

I'd just play the intro before the run :obelul:
