I think they allow glitches, though, so that probably is actually "no cheating" in the sense of
using cheatcodes.
>> [_] Anonymous 08/31/14(Sun)21:39 No.2510452
"No cheating" means that there were no outside things used to achieve anything that was used to
get the time. Anything that is in the game is allowed, unless otherwise stated.

In the eyes of someone doing a speedrun or TAS, "cheating" is defined as deliberately altering
the code in a specific way to achieve an edge.
Abusing a programming error is not considered cheating as anyone (theoretically) could do it with
any copy of the game at any time. No modifications to the code.

>second the run starts he starts glitching the fuck out
I love speedruns of older games, they just don't have glitches like they used to.

this
this is what speedrunners typically call an 'any% run'. i.e. get to the end credits in as little
time as possible; nothing along the way matters

Half Life 2 Run is best run.
No contest.

So, memory editing is allowed along with these retarded glitches?

Nope. Glitches are allowed because they are considered a part of the game in which anyone can
exploit. I'm sorry this flairs up your autism.

Sure, as soon as you figure out how to do that in game and without any external programs, I'm
sure that will be allowed too, but good luck trying that, retard.

Are glitches allowed if they only happen with certain OS/driver/etc combinations?

Are you mad? Why?
These speedruns are amazing performances requiring knowledge and skill and hard work.

Not him, but I also have no respect for glitch runs, especially not when they replace older fair
runs.
I've done a couple of RPG speedruns for speeddemosarchive in the past, long before youtube. All
of them while deliberately avoiding bug abuse.
Then some assclown copies your run strategy, but gets it 10% faster by exploiting bugs. Leaves a
sour aftertaste.

Typically there are different categories. Most notable example I can think of is Wind Waker.
The Wii U version, the gamecube version, and the emulated version all have their own unique
glitches. Even so, the Wii U currently has the fastest run of the 3.
That doesn't stop people from running the other versions though.

No. Stop it

Yes it is allowed if it's in the game. In some games memory can be corrupted.
Crash 2 can be beaten in 14 minutes or so by doing a bucha stupid shit to make the game think you
have all the crystals,
which is memory corruption
just google crash 2 14 minute run

I somehow doubt you normally play 20-40 hour games in 10-20 minutes.

memory editing is in some speedruns
the smb3 glitched any% run is do-able by humans and with it you can execute arbitrary code which
triggers the end cutscene.
there are other speedruns for this game that dont use this trick.
I dont see what the problem is, its just a video game
