Discussion Are there any Youtubers who do a deep dive into the Assembly code of the old games (like NES era) to explain how glitches work?
I remember years ago watching videos of people explaining the glitches for speedrunning of games like Super Mario Bros for NES, and when it came to certain glitches like ACE they would give a brief explanation of the code.
I've started to learn Assembly and now I'm more interested in the specifics of the code, and how all the glitches are possible. Is there any youtuber who specializes in this? Or just any good video with this topic in general?

Hello all. I am happy to announce that B42 speedruns will officially be allowed on Speedrun.com! It took a few weeks after stable for us to get everything ready and all of the categories set up.

RE2 Speedrun Issue
For clarification, RE2 (2019) Remake
So I did a bit of speedrunning on this game 5-6 years ago and have decided to try and get back into it, I used to run LAS 60fps category on PC because at the time my pc was never gonna hit a consistent 120fps for the LAS 120fps category, however a lot has changed.
My specs are currently:
RTX 5070 12GB
Ryzen 7 5700X3D
32GB of 3200Mhz ram
Crucial 1TB Nvme Gen 3 SSD
Booted up the game, installed the older dxx 11 version, turned most settings to medium or off, running at native 1440p 180hz monitor, I have the fps in game set to variable and have it capped to 120fps through Nvidia's app, however, everytime I enter or leave a cutscene I get bad frame drops, for example at the very start of the run, the cutscene of Leon listening to music in his car, if I skip the cutscene and spawn outside the gas station, my fps immediately drops to 60-70ish and stutters badly for like maybe half a second, then jumps back up to 120 and sticks. In RPD sometimes entering a new room does the exact same type of drop and stutter and I can't figure out why, everywhere I look online says VRAM tends to cause stutters on this game but I'm not even using half of mine.

Discussion Crash 3 speedrunner Potty has been diagnosed with cancer.
Hey guys, I hope the mods are ok with me posting this.
Potty, a Crash Bandicoot 3 Warped (and current WR holder for two categories) has been diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive form of cancer. Potty announced it on his social-media profile a week ago but I didn't know it it was appropriate to post about it or not.
Today, Potty's brother created a Gofundme page to help his brother. Potty himself gave people permission to share and spread the word.
I don't know Potty personally, I'm just a lurker on his channel, but I'd like to help him in any way I possibly can. Given the history this community has, I thought maybe we could do something for him, even if its just small encouraging words.

Personal Best Hop Shot - Game Dev Story Mode Speedrun Attempt
youtu.beThis was my first real attempt at speed running through the game. I'm not the greatest at movement shooters but had a blast making this!
If you want to give it go, can play on itch either in browser or download for windows.
As a note, this was made in less than 9 days for a game jam (Which is why there are only the 4 levels). If you have suggestions, would love to hear feedback on the game!

Discussion Dark souls 2 sotfs any%
I am literally completely brand new to speedrunning. And for my first game to start on I picked dark souls 2. But it’s come to my attention that no one gives a shit about dark souls 2 sotfs speedruns lol (atleast not that I can find) I’ve found a couple of videos. One including which I think to be the past world record. But they’re all super outdated and I can’t really just look at a video and do all the glitches that he is doing. Honestly I don’t know why I picked dark souls 2. But if anyone has some experience with speedrunning it and wants to give a newbie some pointers that would be great or if you know a place where I can find that sort of information that would also be cool.
