CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE RUN ON YOUTUBE!

It's finally ready, guys! We sincerely hope you guys enjoy watching this as much as we enjoyed making it. Thanks for following us on this epic adventure!

Original Post:

Half-Life 2: Done With a High Magnitude of Velocity by the Sourceruns Team

THE RUN IS OFFICIALLY FINISHED. We will be releasing July 6th. So get drunk for July 4th, recover from your hangover on the 5th, and be sure to check our youtube channel on the 6th! We'll be putting a short release date trailer soon, also, so keep your eyes peeled for that.

Original Trailer

So we've posted about this in a few places and done some streaming of segment attempts, but we figure it's about time to go ahead and let everyone know how far along the new Half-Life 2 speedrun is. This thread will be our method of keeping everyone informed on our progress as well as a way for us to show off tricks and demos that "didn't make the cut". For other source games and more discussion on the run and how it's coming, check out our forums, youtube, and wiki.

To be clear from the get-go, this run is heavily segmented and is being done with scripts. We'll be using autohotkey for button-mashing, and simple in-game bindings to automate things like swapping weapons and saving/loading.

FOR THOSE WHO WANT EVERY LAST POSSIBLE BIT OF INFORMATION ON THE PROJECT: http://bit.ly/hl2dwahmov - This is our google doc. It has time comparisons to HL2DQ, segment times, total time saved, runner lists, and other information. If you just want to see what map we're up to, checking this thread will continue to be sufficient.

Update Log

5.18.13 - 50 maps completed.

5.5.13 - Finally out of prison, and happy to be back in the open.

4.17.13 - Congrats to OnTrigger for his first segment!

4.14.13 - I have not updated this as much as I should be, I suppose. We're now done with the "Nova Prospekt" chapter and have moved onto "Entanglement". Soon we will again be out in open environments and we'll be letting our ABH's lead us to victory.

4.7.13 - prison_05 now.

4.4.13 - Up to prison_04. We're finding the confined corridors of the prison to be a bit of a damper on our progress, but we're also finding new ways to save time. We've also been routing the future maps and we're discovering again and again that we might not lose as much time as we thought on some of the "flying" maps.

3.29.13 - Done with "Sandtraps" chapter, as we're now finished with prison_01. Progress was delayed for a while because S. REALLY REALLY wanted the segment he got, but didn't have access to a mouse for a few days. D'oh!

3.23.13 - Done with Coast. Prison, you're next!

3.18.13 - Almost done with Coast. We've hit a bit of a planning hiccup on coast_11, in that we don't know which route will be the fastest for the 2nd half of the map. We'll probably slow down a bit for the next day or so, but after this map we've got one more and then prison.

3.15.13 - Halfway done with coast! Let's just say we're flying through it...

3.14.13 - Happy pi day guys! We're up to coast_04, with a massive amount of time saved already in just two maps. Check the gdoc if you want specifics, but Coast is definitely going to be the highlight of this run!

3.9.13 - OMGWE'REONCOASTWE'REALLSOEXCITEDWECAN'TWAITOMGOMGOMGOMGCOASTCOASTCOASTCOAST *ahem*, I mean today we finished Ravenholm and moved onto the Highway 17 maps.

3.8.13 - YaLTeR finished off town_04 last night, majority agreed to move on this morning. One more map until coast, consisting of 1 VERY hard segment and two that should go by pretty quickly. Coast will likely slow progress down a bit, since we'll all want to compete for the HIGH OCTANE ACTION that will be had during those segments.

3.6.13 - We discovered an error in a previous segment in which the runner might have used the wrong save. The runner is away on a ski trip so we can't be certain... Worst case scenario: we lose 0.1s.

3.5.13 - We finished up town_02a last night and will be starting on town_04. We're almost to coast, which is when this run will get SERIOUSLY interesting! (Late night update: New member! Shiningface joined up after watching our livestreams on twitch.tv, and will likely wind up getting the 2nd segment on town_04.)

3.4.13 - We've been unsure about possible improvements on segments we've already completed for a long time, but so far nobody's improved them and I just got an incredible 2nd segment on town_02. As such we're "officially" (if that even really means anything) back up to town_02a. Some route uncertainties are going to have to be worked out between now and when we finish town_04, due to possibly wanting/needing extra SMG grenades that we can pick up on that map in exchange for a few seconds.

[b]Update Log[/b]

[hidden]
5.18.13 - 50 maps completed.

5.5.13 - Finally out of prison, and happy to be back in the open.

4.17.13 - Congrats to OnTrigger for his first segment!

4.14.13 - I have not updated this as much as I should be, I suppose. We're now done with the "Nova Prospekt" chapter and have moved onto "Entanglement". Soon we will again be out in open environments and we'll be letting our ABH's lead us to victory.

4.7.13 - prison_05 now.

4.4.13 - Up to prison_04. We're finding the confined corridors of the prison to be a bit of a damper on our progress, but we're also finding new ways to save time. We've also been routing the future maps and we're discovering again and again that we might not lose as much time as we thought on some of the "flying" maps.

3.29.13 - Done with "Sandtraps" chapter, as we're now finished with prison_01. Progress was delayed for a while because S. REALLY REALLY wanted the segment he got, but didn't have access to a mouse for a few days. D'oh!

3.23.13 - Done with Coast. Prison, you're next!

3.18.13 - Almost done with Coast. We've hit a bit of a planning hiccup on coast_11, in that we don't know which route will be the fastest for the 2nd half of the map. We'll probably slow down a bit for the next day or so, but after this map we've got one more and then prison.

3.15.13 - Halfway done with coast! Let's just say we're [i]flying[/i] through it...

3.14.13 - Happy pi day guys! We're up to coast_04, with a massive amount of time saved already in just two maps. Check the gdoc if you want specifics, but Coast is definitely going to be the highlight of this run!

3.9.13 - OMGWE'REONCOASTWE'REALLSOEXCITEDWECAN'TWAITOMGOMGOMGOMGCOASTCOASTCOASTCOAST *ahem*, I mean today we finished Ravenholm and moved onto the Highway 17 maps.

3.8.13 - YaLTeR finished off town_04 last night, majority agreed to move on this morning. One more map until coast, consisting of 1 VERY hard segment and two that should go by pretty quickly. Coast will likely slow progress down a bit, since we'll all want to compete for the HIGH OCTANE ACTION that will be had during those segments.

3.6.13 - We discovered an error in a previous segment in which the runner might have used the wrong save. The runner is away on a ski trip so we can't be certain... Worst case scenario: we lose 0.1s.

3.5.13 - We finished up town_02a last night and will be starting on town_04. We're almost to coast, which is when this run will get SERIOUSLY interesting! (Late night update: New member! Shiningface joined up after watching our livestreams on twitch.tv, and will likely wind up getting the 2nd segment on town_04.)

3.4.13 - We've been unsure about possible improvements on segments we've already completed for a long time, but so far nobody's improved them and I just got an incredible 2nd segment on town_02. As such we're "officially" (if that even really means anything) back up to town_02a. Some route uncertainties are going to have to be worked out between now and when we finish town_04, due to possibly wanting/needing extra SMG grenades that we can pick up on that map in exchange for a few seconds.[/hidden]

Just a quick heads-up:

This run uses scripts (AutoHotkey), so we will not submit it to SDA once it's done.

Good stuff, looking forward to see it in motion.

One question: is your team also working on that run with ABH going backwards? I'm talking about this:

We might also put up the time saved from HL2DQ in this thread soon, so you'll see how much faster we are on certain maps/overall.

Gets the cake.

PS, mods, if I've done wrong by making this post or making it here, feel free to move or delete >_>

And yes we're redoing 4+ maps. We found that if we swap our weapons 1 map sooner, it lets us do a grenade boost 1.5s sooner. So yeah, we're dedicated to making this optimized.

Also, any comparisons we wind up making between this run and HL2DQ are made only because there's not a run on the current engine to compare to. The two versions of the source engine are VASTLY different, so naturally this run will be faster in some places and slower in others. Think of this not as an improvement to HL2DQ, but as a run of a seperate game.

Finally, while it seems like we're... not very far through the run, much of the first half of the game contains unskippable cutscenes.

FFS I told you to wait til coast.

Might as well make the entire google document public then <_<
(No, don't do that. If we're going to make it public, I wanna take a look at it first because I broke it slightly last week.)

Quote from z1mb0bw4y:

Very true. We cannot stress that enough. While this run is likely to beat HL2DQ's time, there's little reason to say this one is 'better' than HL2DQ.

If you watch HL2DQ and then the preview video on canals posted earlier, you can understand why this run is going to be faster.
However, on the more close corridor maps, it isn't so obvious because we can't keep the speed.
Most of the flying in HL2DQ we have replaced with ABH launches, but in the few cases where we do have to resort to flying, we are so terribly slow that we go into a skype call and cry together.

Well, if we're going to talk openly about this.

But we can't do that! The GDoc has important information, like the fact that we always forget to update it because we're lazy!

I used to keep that thing up to date pretty well. I can do that again (I basically always have been in charge of that document)

I'm gonna fix her up, and then tell Cameron to make it public.

Awesome stuff, HL2DQ is still one of my favourite runs. If you were to apply the same level of optimisation to the old version of the game (with flying), is the ABH version still faster?

Hahahahah... heh... it's true Sad

But then again there's some times where we act surprisingly retarded when we get a segment.

Yes, Half-Life 2: Done Quick is really optimized. We might be able to shave a minute or so off, but I doubt it's enough to beat new engine, especially now that we found fast ways to do citadel, which was previously thought to be the bane of this run.

As said by eXeC, it's hard to tell, since the differences are so big.

We just lost 0.1s because we've noticed that pruno used a bad save in one of the segments in d1_canals_11. However, we will use the previous demo (0.1 slower than the one we were going to use) so the saves match up and that way we avoid redoing half of the run.

It's going to be funny to know that this speedrun could've been done 0.1s faster when its actually completed.

The only sad thing is that YaLTeR loses the segment, making his segment count 0 :/
