VST Reporting Modes for Game Graphs

Back to Graphs for All Years

Different Reporting modes for Game Graphs
Strict Mode
This mode is completely automated and based off the spreadsheets and a special hand created drivers file.

Rules for Strict Mode:
(If a kid crashes a bus, the bus driver gets in trouble)
1. Driver Pairs are counted as one unit.
2. The Driver(s) is/are responsible for everything that happens on their shift.
3. Crashes of any type and cause count.
4. Cheating and alternate versions of DB do not count, Sega CD version only.
5. For DB1-4 chat logs are used to re-construct point/crash/bug-splat/bus stop counts when needed.


Soft Mode
This mode is done completely by-hand post-run by Sokar and the video is re-watched to find actual driver changes.

Rules for Soft Mode:
(You do the crime, you do the time)
1. Whoever is in the chair is the current "driver" and recieves time as such.
2. The person in the chair driving when a game event happens recieves the credit.
3. End-of-Run crashes do not count.
4. Cheating and alternate versions of DB do not count, Sega CD version only.
5. For DB1-4 chat logs are used to re-construct points/crashes/bugsplats/bus stops when needed.
