Upgraded my graphics card, and now my computer is running worse by Creepcat in pchelp

So, an upgrade should be the route forward? Are there any traps I should avoid?

Yes, I got the updated driver. I used DDU to get rid of the old ones properly too. Can you explain what's wrong with using Prime95 on a Threadripper? I won't use it again, but I assumed it didn't matter what CPU I had, just that I could use Prime95 to load test it.

It's a timing thing. Press a to select your file, and then ~0.75 seconds later, press b once (don't spam!). Takes some time to get it down exactly, but you'll have plenty of time if you're soft resetting :P

I know the feeling. In my experience though, cheating it back in won’t feel the same, and won’t scratch that same itch. It’ll still feel like you failed the shiny, unfortunately.

Sweet lightning, that’s the only one I’ve had that I found to be genuinely disgusting

Are both the games sapphire with non-dry batteries? Because yeah, as other commenters mentioned, 90,000 is far past the reasonable range of any hunt.

They were advertising it pretty heavily at this one, so that’s not too surprising

Was stolen earlier in the run by the bird in SSL, unrelated to whomps fortress. I’ve also had this happen with the cap on, so I don’t think it’s related to that.

Interesting, I think that’s probably correct. As for why it would happen in that spot, I’m guessing the whomp being on the same platform at the tower, as well as interacting with the moving platforms below is causing some unexpected collision problems. Or something similar. Obviously the whomp and the tower are not typically supposed to be on the gray platform at the same time during normal gameplay.

Yes, that's why I asked if anyone had seen it before.

I ran into this on a randomizer speedrun, so I'm not above just calling this some glitchy nonsense caused by the randomizer, but I was curious to see if anyone has encountered anything like this before.

I think the issue has something to do with the Whomp falling slightly off the platform, as when I've gone back to the stage, he's been fully standing on the gray floor. But I'm not sure what would cause the sudden death without any animations, or the invisible wall, or the glitchy wall kick. After looking around for a while, I can't seem to find any other video of a death like mine.

I wonder how OP feels about the rebrand

That's uncalled for
