I love YaBB 1G - SP1!

I have a route idea : in E1M2 when you jump to the silver key you can jump back using the face sculpture on the side.

hfr demo of the trick:

i can jump straight onto the key (ie without falling down) using hfr. its probably almost possible without hfr to..maybe not

yeah, idea is not bad, but it popped up in my head years ago either... didn't succeed. In fact, it was slower than the other route :-/
:30 is pretty optimized, don't worry about that Smiley

Hell is where the heart is.

I believe it was DooMfiend that first showed using the face thing to get to the key and back without extending the bridge. No one could ever do it fast enough, though. (Apparently).

Of course, you'd then have to do the rest of the run as well as Markus did. :-)

I got some pretty good demos on this route but they're 31 seconds. I guess 30 is possible for someone who spends a lot of time but I don't think 29 will work. Sad

that's right, man. this route has been suggested back in the QDQR years, but only proved to save no time compared to the normal route.

Don't think! feeeeeal

Did people do the route without slowing down at all while jumping across and back? Seems like it should save some time if done well.

Ken (the insane runner he is) improved this to 29 fairly recently anyway, by optimising the previous route. While I like and am a big supporter of the jumps to the silver key, I can see why it doesn't end up faster. You'd need to be a machine to not lose speed there.
Or running Tool-Assisted.

btw, did anybody try to do an ogre-grenade jump to take the yellow armor, and finish the level with the sda route. If anybody could equalize the qdq time with that rout it might be possible to save some time in a later level.

(I know it is probably impossible to equalize but who know)

I think you'd have to take at least an extra second to get that, probably two.
