You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Trial And Error is a contest similar to GGP, but much harder. It is for either masters or poor determined souls. This is a contest with amazing prizes and much fun to be had on the 150 levels roller coaster, with 30 Trials to be conquered.
Credit to AspectZero for making this amazing contest, plus, a special thanks to Stunt for helping me set this all up! Smile

How do I participate?
  1. Hit your username at the top of the forum web page and then hit 'user control panel'.
  2. Hit the 'group memberships' button located on the lower left side of the page under 'miscellaneous'.
  3. Hit 'Join Group' next to the section called 'T&E Participant' listed under the 'Groups you can Join' section.
  4. Wait to be accepted into the group. If you wish to expedite this process, please notify an admin/contest host on Discord. 
    Once accepted to the group, you will need to create a thread in the T&E subthread you now have access to  Fred
  5. On the forum main page, go to the Arcade subsection and hit 'Platform racing 2' then hit  'Trial and error'.
  6. Create a thread here by hitting 'post thread' at the top right of the screen. Call the thread whatever you want indicating who is participating, and include a link to your copy of this spreadsheet:
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...sp=sharing "This can be done by hitting 'file' at the top left, then 'make a copy'. Once a copy is made, hit 'share' at the top right and change the general access to 'anyone with this link', and change the general access permissions from 'viewer' to 'editor'. This will allow the judges to add comments on your runs.
  7. Fill out all the information in the 'User Details' tab at the bottom, include your pr2 name in the 'prizes' section, then head to the 'trials' tab and get started!


In order to get points, you must record and upload a video of yourself completing any of the levels. A level is considered 'completed' when it is played from start to finish whilst following these rules and guidelines:
  • NO GLITCHING unless the level creator intended for the glitch to be used in the completion of the level. This will be obvious for experienced players, but not as obvious for newer ones.
  • NO HATS are allowed, except for the EXP hat and KONG hat if you need some extra swag to help you through the levels  Cool
  • ANY STATS MAY BE USED, and this includes stats you get from your daily boost or happy hour. Sometimes you need that lil' extra sauce!
  • YOU MUST BE THE ONE PLAYING so, no letting your mega-gamer cousin play for you.. We want to see what YOU are capable of!
  • YOU MAY PLAY ANY LEVEL AT ANY TIME, so if you feel like giving up on a level or a trial, that's okay! Go try another one and get those sweet points!
  • START RECORDING BEFORE YOU ENTER THE LEVEL, we don't want any fishy business up in here..

Any video URL link containing a level run should be posted in the 'video proof' section next to each trial in the trial tab on your spreadsheet. Please include timestamps of the start and finish of each level! This will make the judges life a lot easier. You may have as many videos as you want for a trial, as long as it is clearly noted which levels are completed in the video on the spreadsheet and through the time stamps. 

Video Examples and Suggestions:
The most convenient way for a player to play through this contest may be to stream publicly on a channel like youtube or twitch. (I am not too familiar with lives, but I believe youtube will upload the lives, or give the option to upload them immediately.) Then, getting points is as simple as posting a link to the live and adding time stamps on the video/spreadsheet. Make sure your video is uploaded, publicly available, and won't be deleted!
Alternatively, videos containing individual levels can be manually uploaded, or edited together to show levels in a certain order, or to cut out failed attempts. This will be a more involved process. Youtube is an obvious choice to upload to, but use whatever you are familiar with.

Every point you earn needs to be verified by a judge, so if you want those epic rewards, make sure to notify a judge that you've uploaded some level completions. Please do this by posting a comment on your personal T&E thread on the forum. 




*NEW CHECKPOINT/SAVE STATE OPPORTUNITY*

While playing through Trial and Error, you might find yourself taking a very long time to complete a single level and having to quit halfway due to life obligations or burnout which can be very frustrating (heh). This is why this new rule has been created.

At any point during a level (with exceptions), you may choose to postpone your level completion until a later point. This can be done using a program called 'blockeditor' (DL: https://github.com/Pr2FreeRunner/BlockEd...ag/Release ) which allows a map to be copied, edited, then re-uploaded to platform racing 2. 

Simply quit a level whenever you chose to 'save' your last respawn location, then later copy the map using blockeditor, add the '1' respawn block above (or behind/wherever to avoid making the level easier) the solid block you last touched, then save and publish the level to your account. 

Here are the rules for using the save state feature:
  • THE LEVEL MUST NOT BE TIMED, this should be self explanatory
  • YOU MUST BE ON A SOLID BLOCK when choosing to create your 'save',  meaning a block that you would respawn on after touching a net
  • THE ENTIRE PROCESS MUST BE ON VIDEO. You must show the use of blockeditor when you choose to 'load your save' so that the original creator's level is proven to be untampered with. Show everything from the first quit to the loading of the level in blockeditor, to the saving of the level to the start of your edited save state.
  • THE SAME STATS MUST BE USED, so make sure your stats are the same before and after taking a break
  • DO NOT UPLOAD THE LEVEL TO NEWEST, blockeditor will ask you whether you want to upload the level to the 'newest' tab when you publish it; make sure the box is unchecked.
  • MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THE LEVEL IS NOT YOURS, just change the name to something that tells anyone looking at your levels that it is not yours. ex. 'hat factory unofficial for T&E Contest'
  • DELETE THE LEVEL ONCE YOU HAVE BEATEN IT. Yep, its gotta go

Other levels that are exempt from the save state feature: Overseer, 

If you choose to take advantage of this wonderful new feature, please make it easy for the judges to understand where they can find all the pieces of your level completion through links/timestamps or whatever means necessary.

This contest is very very difficult, so get as many points as you can! (or at least get the sets you want.. this stuff doesn't come for free!) -- The point system will be reworked in the future as some levels in the earlier trials are far too difficult to encounter that early. Don't be discouraged, keep fighting, and make sure to have fun! Don't be afraid to ask for guidance!
Can you get all 180 points? Fred Fred believes in you so you must believe too!  Fred Hone and perfect your epic skills!

Aspect moved a lot of his older maps over to a new acc: AspectZero Legacy

Including all of the SirGalevant maps

@AspectZero You should probably give Ashley the new map IDs so she can update this thread
I beat trial and error.. Thank you Ashley and Stunt for hosting, mag and aspect for motivation and sharing their knowledge

Participating in this event has been a very meaningful experience to me and I'd love to sit here and write an essay about my experience, but I'll spare everyone the corny lecture. The future is bright and there is lots more dopamine to farm (and share with others)

I was mediocre at this game before, but now I'm slightly less mediocre. yippie
