Flyingfoxuk:



The three ive circled near the end and above the fan

and to Proxima, I've done acts 1 & 2 so far (I'm trying to do max rings for every level), act 2 is quicker but requires a glitch, act 1 is glitchless but very long - here's the only video that shows you all the rings obtained on act 2 http://youtu.be/qolu9MGMBuM (you may have to wait a few minutes till it's finished uploading, it has 15 minutes left when i wrote this post)

General Sonic / Sonic 1 Starlight Act 3 All Rings (269)

« on: September 08, 2012, 12:56:29 pm »

I've asked a few people if they knew how to do this but none of them knew or replied, so I decided to make a post on the forum to see if anyone knows how to do this. I can only get 266 rings, I can't get 3 of the rings, if anyone can tell me the strat or glitch to get the last few then I would really appreciate it, even if it just points me in the right direction then I'd be very happy. Thanks :)

« on: August 31, 2012, 02:30:29 am »

but there can be different strategies to it, you wouldn't necessarily take the fastest route to get there, like speed highway for example, to get the highest score you might go on the lowest route and go as far right as you can, and stay there till the thirty seconds is up.

i find it really hard to do the lavareef zip, so I can't really test it, but why does it not work on other levels? would sonic just die on a level like mushroom hill for example?

how do all the speed runners manage to cling to the walls then without a oroblem - is it down to luck - or holding a certain direction on the analog stick?

General Sonic / Planet Wisp Act 1 (Sonic Generations) Glitch

« on: August 27, 2012, 10:06:44 am »

I can do the glitch were you go over the top of this building, but then I get stuck on it - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EqVSSKadzCE ,
here you see the glitch but at 1:03 on the video I can't get through the floor, after wasting about 2+ minutes I finally fall through - sometimes I spend 10 minutes trying to get through and eventually I just restart. I was wondering if there is a strategy to falling through, because this is driving me crazy,
Ideally Zeupar, FirstKirkbyEver or TheCrypticJacknife, who have all done the glitch may know about this, but anyone else who knows can let me know - thanks :)

Also I have trouble sticking to the walls after doing a spin dash whilst in the pink wisp form, instead of sticking to the wall going around a corner, I fly off the wall, for example in the video at 0:53, if I spindash there I'll leave the wall when it goes off to the side and go straight up flying in the air - I don't have this problem on the PC version, only on the Xbox version, If anyone knows how to stay stuck to the wall I'd appreciate it :)

Thanks, I thought it was something to do with that but I struggled to die in the 10 seconds, so I thought that there was another trick. Thanks for clarifying this for me.

Mine has to be Chemical Plant Act 1 (Sonic Generations), I spent ages on it, and finally pulled it off, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5FhZhtL_wM

For an older game any of my Sonic 1 speed runs that got me first on the leaderboards from this playlist (Labyrinth 1 being my favourite ;P):

I've got 0 second times on other levels, but this one looks hard, I've seen comments on the 0 second times saying they broke this level. maybe the blast effect allowed a faster route,

If anyone else knows the route please let me know.

And thakyou for your reply

i dont think there is a way to check if people dont cheat, some people dont have ways to record there hands, it requires honesty,

And rubber bands and anything like that should be banned, because its just as bad as a modded controller in my opinion.

« on: August 22, 2012, 03:40:50 pm »

Why are special stage times not submitable? - it still takes alot of skill to do full speed whilst getting all the rings - there game itself even has a leaderboard for times for special stages - so why are they not included?

Competition Central / Re: Sonic Generations Speed Glitch Execution Dispute

« on: August 19, 2012, 03:15:05 am »

I agree with umbreon, there's no way to monitor whether you cheat or not, so cheating with modded controllers on the blast effect isnt really any different. As umbreon said we're not going to ban spin dashing, people can easily submit fake times - look at the leadeing time and give them a tenth place time - noone will know. Anyone could do the runs on a TAS emulator, or use savestates, but what satisfaction does that give to the person who got the times, that they cheated? To see highly competitive runs the blast effect is really good, as is m-speed etc. Banning it just because some people can cheat with it isn't really a very good solution. Just because you can do the blast effect doesn't mean that you can top the leaderboards - there are loads of added difficult moves to be done on top of them.
If you start banning the blast effect are you going to ban the PC version because the game can run really slow on a computer not powerful enough to run it, giving someone an advantage of playing at slow motion? There are so many aspects that can change how good the times will be - Sonic Speed running is about pushing the games to their limits - how can that be done if we ban everything that can be cheated?..

Honesty is what's needed.

sorry i didnt realise that rule about using tails - i will remove my time - also, when i said rub the thumb over the a b c buttons I meant the equivalent of them, I'm using a saitek pc controller, which has 3 buttons next to each other and they are very easy to rub over with your thumb, sorry for the misunderstanding. My bad

Time is removed

Information Kiosk / hacked Games Leaderboards

« on: August 03, 2012, 02:23:09 pm »

Would it be possible for you to add leaderboards for hacked games - like the ones on sonic retro - http://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_hacks#Sega_Mega_Drive
There are alot but I think it would be good if you added them for the best ones - like Tails in sonic 1, knuckles in sonic 1, Sonic Boom and others listed on the link above
You may want to add an extra segment for them if you dont want the times to affect the official game's leaderboards, but it's up to you
Thanks in advance :)

Information Kiosk / Sonic The Hedgehog SMS Leaderboard

« on: August 03, 2012, 02:16:22 pm »

Please could you add a Sonic the Hedgehog SMS leaderboard, because the GG version of Sonic The Hedgehog is significantly different to the SMS version, for example compare these two levels -
(Look at green hill act 2 for both of them)
SMS VERSION - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyNPygRL3tI
GG VERSION - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQiyhNCudfg
There you see that there are differences that make the courses different - the GG version is faster or the same usually.
 Thanks In Advance :)
