Timing the game
Hi everyone, I finished a speedrun of The Da Vinci Disappearance and I would like to submit it to Speed Demos Archive, but I need to time it. How do you think I have to begin and end the timer? Thank you for your answers.
You could do some simple math:
Go and look up your current playtime in options - stats
(Write it down)
Play DLC
Lookup new playtime
Subtract old playtime from new
Use rest as result!
(No, not: ??? - PROFIT) - I'm sick of it!
All is already captured. Now I have the videos and I want to time them with the number of frames. But I don't know exactly what frames to choose as the beginning and as the end.
Also, I did it as a redo of the missions, and I played the normal game for ammo between them, so I can't use your method anyway.
Ouch, sorry about that.
On the other hand, Google is your friend.
Well, traditionally timing is done when you lose/gain control of the character, so I'd say the first frame of action in the first mission and the last frame of action is the last mission.
