Best example of this is: Any% Easy, Any% Uber, etc.

Where can I obtain a copy of Wolfenstein (2009)?
Bethesda removed it from Steam. Torrent it. Sorry folks.

Are there any glitches or skips? Notes Located Below
Church Dialogue Skip by Duane Jones
This glitch is performed by hugging the man in front of you and then immediately spinning around and continuing to push into him. If performed correctly the dialogue will cut.

Hospital Boss Skip by IvyVisual
This glitch is performed by hugging the shield wall in the Hospital Boss arena, and tossing all of your grenades towards the red barrels behind it. If performed correctly the barrels should explode due to grenade physics.

Castle Skip by IvyVisual
This strategy involves stacking objects with your MP43 and Leichenfast. Which is performed in this order; push chair into corner, push first office cabinet near corner, push second cabinet near corner, and finally place both cabinets up-right and use MP43 to push them upwards.

Castle Skip (Judgy Route) by Judgy
This version of the castle skips involves stacking one object upright ontop of a box before going down the stairs. The absolute easiest way to do the castle skip as of now.

Cannery Pipe Skip by IvyVisual
This is a skip involving jumping on the AI's hit box and using them to jump over a pipe in Cannery. Should shed off a few seconds. Note: Sprint into the NPC or you will not jump onto their hit box.

Cannery Box Skip by IvyVisual
This skip involves jumping on some pre-stacked boxes to bypass two small rooms of enemies.

Queen Geist Glitch by IvyVisual
This glitch involves triggering the Queen to spawn in its second form. Hopping on top of a ledge directly behind you and then onto a torch. Standing on the torch will allow you to bypass the Queen Geist when she walks forward.

Queen Geist Glitch by omfg_cob
[hidden]This is an alternate way to skip over the Queen Geist. You simply move back towards a ledge and walk up some slanted rocks. It's pretty straight forward.[/url]
Midtown West Despawn by Judgy
Judgy found a way to despawn enemies in Midtown West by simply walking down a different pathway. Great for low energy and avoiding death.

Airfield Boss Skip by omfg_cob
Basically a little bit of technical jumping and you can save about a minute.

Notebook Crash by omfg_cob
No use for this yet, though it could become useful later.

(Useless) Fence Hop by IvyVisual & Judgy
This is a useless glitch for the time being. It will completely skip the Dig Site level. However, you will not have veil which will ruin your speed run as you need veil to walk through static walls in the run.

(Useless) Queen Geist FF OoB by IvyVisual
Another useless glitch, where you can escape the Queen Geist's first form but still be attacked from range. It's primarily an Out of Bounds glitch however because this a new level loaded there is no use for it. At least that's how it seems.

(Useless) Zeppelin Portal Glitch
Yet another useless glitch, launches you into the air and the portal begins to spin rapidly. Physics yo.

(Useless) Out of Bounds Zeppelin
Not much you can do with this.

If you have any questions, comments, or want to discuss the running of this game. Feel free to post. I'll try and keep this thread up to date with any new leads, glitches, and records.

Also special thanks to professorbroman for recommending writing a FAQ for running games. He said it like 50+ times in one stream.

I felt like I've routed this game very well for any% and it was time to post a FAQ for it. Let the games begin.
I think you should record SDA-submittable versions of your attempts and submit it if you think you got a final world record time.

I actually believe there is another 12 to 15 minutes that can be trimmed off. There are also plenty of glitches to be discovered I believe I have barely scratched the surface.

Hey, This game really ticked all the boxes for me when it came out and I would love to see a run of it , I can help out with trying to find skips / glitches as I have experience from doing that very thing for Borderlands 2 Tongue I'll take a look at the game some time this weekend and I'll watch your current run too.

Church route despawn


This only seems to work here for some reason (you cannot de-spawn this road later in the game)

Ivy im working on trying to change the castle skip I'll upload a video in a second of what it is however i cannot seem to get a filling cabinet where i need it,

Castle Skip

What this is: Basically the top of the fence is not covered by and invisible wall if we could get the cabinet onto one of the boxes (standing upright) we could be high enough to crouch jump over it.

I was able to make it work on my first try. Granted I have a lot of practice with doing this. MP43 is your best friend when moving objects, believe me on that. Definately a much better castle skip. Way faster, reliable and I'm not stacking more objects than I need to. Good stuff Judgy!

Found this interesting useless portal glitch in the Zeppelin level.

(Useless) Zeppelin Portal Glitch
twitch.tv/ivyvisual
Went back and looked at the castle skip route that judgy found. I managed to get a pretty consistent way to get the file cabinet on top of the crate. You can see below how I did it. I tried it about 10-15 times in a row to ensure it worked out almost exactly the same each time.

It was really sad when I died. I was getting shunned in chat so much.

Hey Ivy, I just watched your Über run and I have a quick observation (not sure if this works on Über though, as I played on hard): The Tiger tank before the airfield can be destroyed with a quick burst from an MP43 with empower, I just ran towards it and it literally took like less than 10 hits before it was destroyed. So no need to mess around with the Panzerschreck.

You are a godsend for telling me that, because that will save a ton of time. Thank you for telling me that, I'll give it a whirl before my next run. Which I don't know when that will be because Rust has me occupied atm.

But seriously thanks for telling me!
Rye bread, beer and snus
No problem. I just have to wonder that didn't the developers realize just how ridiculously overpowered the MP43 + big bore is with the fully upgraded empower, I didn't really use any other weapons unless I really had to. Blew up those turbines (or whatever they are) with it in Zeppelin as well.
twitch.tv/ivyvisual
See for some reason I wasn't able to do that with the mp43 in the zeppelin. I'll look into that again as well, so thanks for pointing that out as well.
Rye bread, beer and snus
Yup, both work on Über, just tested it. And it isn't like 10 or so hits for the Tiger, more like under 5. Yes, the MP43 is actually more powerful than the Panzerschreck. Those turbines though require quite a lot of hits, around 20 or so each, but I'm guessing any other weapon would work as well, although I'm not sure if you could afford to waste for example Leichenfaust ammo on those turbines at that point.
