Load Removers for Horizon Zero Dawn™™

These autosplitters were built based on the rules on speedrun.com/hzd for the load-time definition. In this case, quite simply, a load is defined whenever "Loading..." is seen in the bottom left corner of the screen. This includes few cut scene pauses in the beginning of Any% runs, as well as every time a fast travel is performed. This load remover checks the video feed for the "Loading...", and tells LiveSplit that it is a load whenever this appears.

The latest load removers (.vas files) can be downloaded on the Releases Page

Testing

I HIGHLY Recommend testing this before attempting a run each day by doing a quick test.

With all of the above up and running and showing IGT, try to start the timer and invoke a load by simply performing a fast-travel or loading a save.

Variants & Scan Region settings (notice me senpai)

This is the best working, recommended variant for any runs on any platform.

PC (memory based) variant (Steam version only) *

You should use this variant for any runs on PC once development finishes. Currently, this load remover only works with the Steam edition of the game.

If you still want to test this, the .asl file can be found in src/HZD variants/pc.

The memory based LR should be available in LiveSplit itself once one .asl file works with the EGS, Steam and GOG edition of the game.
