For emulator runs, you can use any emulator you want, but most of the community uses ePSXe 2.0.0 because the game runs better than on other emulators, and because the [[Soldier despawn|Soldier despawn glitch]] works on this specific version of this emulator. | For emulator runs, you can use any emulator you want, but most of the community uses ePSXe 2.0.0 because the game runs better than on other emulators, and because the [[Soldier despawn|Soldier despawn glitch]] works on this specific version of this emulator. | ||

Although | Although all glitches are optional, except for skipping the Dragon Gate, most runners use several of them to obtain competitive times. The ones used in this category are: | ||
* | * [[Dragon Gate Skip]] | ||
* | * [[Inventory glitch]] | ||
* | * [[Level looping]] | ||
* Knockback Dash | * [[Hilltop Mausoleum Gate Skip]] | ||
* | * [[Jacoghosting]] | ||
* | * [[Kardok skip]] | ||
* | * [[Knockback Dash]] | ||
* Soldier despawn | * [[Quit-out]] | ||
* | * [[Return to the Graveyard gate skip]] | ||
* | * [[Smuggling]] | ||
* | * [[Speed glitch]] | ||
* | * [[Super daggers]] | ||
* [[Super club]] | |||
* [[Soldier despawn]] | |||
* [[The Haunted Ruins door clip]] | |||
* [[The Lake gate skip]] | |||
In the level walkthroughs, some glitches are marked as (optional) and others are not. They are marked as such because they either save little time, or are more complex to perform than others. Those that are not marked as optional, are highly recommended to learn and perform to obtain competitive times, although, technically, they are optional too. | |||
If you're not comfortable with glitches, you might want to look at the [[Speedrunning:MediEvil (1998) Any% Glitchless|Any% Glitchless]] category instead. | |||
== Common practices == | |||
For the Any% category, some practices are omitted in the level walkthroughs, but it is assumed that the player knows about them and uses them as needed. They are listed below: | |||
* Unless differently specified, avoid the enemies by jumping, moving around, or hitting them out of the way. | |||
* Always skip cutscenes in between levels. When you start a new level, hold {{B|START}} to skip the cutscene immediately as it starts. | |||
* When there's a dialog, skip it as quickly as you can by pressing {{B|T}}. | |||
* Once you gain [[the Daring Dash]] ability, the [[Speed glitch|speed glitch]] becomes obsolete and no longer needs to be used. This means that from [[The Enchanted Earth]] level and beyond, you will always dash while running. | |||
* When using the [[club]], use the Jump-Hit technique to save its durability. Press {{B|C}} to jump and then press {{B|X}} to hit. This technique is meant to avoid hitting the ground as well, spending an extra 1% durability. | |||
* The walkthroughs are the same for the emulator and console subcategories, unless differently specified. | |||
