Video (thanks to Sp00kyFox for a good encode):

WOW! Amazing run!!!

[didierbertrand]

smooth and stylish , very nice run.

[AD_79]

:D

[MD922]

Someday I would love to learn how to make really fast glides like in this Plutonia run and the Scythe 2 Map 03 example glide. :D

[ClumsyDoomer]

Glad you liked it. Thanks!
BTW, I'm going to submit this to tasvideos.org. If someone will make a -viddump of this run earlier than me, post it here, please (unless they need author to post the video himself)

[blob1024]

just fantastic... :)

[MD922]

I bet Sp00kyFox will be there to upload this run.

TASVideos accept .lmps now, or doesn't it apply here for some reason?

[ClumsyDoomer]

Yes, they do. But I think it will look weird if there will be my demo and someone else's video in the submission.

[Andrea Rovenski]

Very awesome run. love all the backwards running haha

[Fredrik]

Good job :)

[ClumsyDoomer]

Thanks.
Here is the video, but higher-quality encodes are still welcome.

It is cool, if you can provide your own encode, but it is not required. Often there is no encode at all and some encoder at TASVideos will provide a temporary encode until the submission is judged after which the final encode is done.

Edit: Watched the run. Good quality and style. Looking forward to the submission, so that I can give a big "yes" vote for it!

I can make you a video in glboom if you would like.

[ClumsyDoomer]

Here is the submission. http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16565

Cyber: No, thanks. I think, Sp00kyFox will make a 60fps 1080p encode pretty soon.

As i had already mentioned in some other thread, the only negative thing i can say is the lack of new major discoveries. Back when i worked on plutonia, i didn't really have an access to many demos (except for very old ones), and DSDA wasn't as actively updated with lmps from doomworld threads as nowadays. So i was sure that i missed quite a few big tricks, as i usually tend to do due to being generally short-sighted >:D Also things like void glides hadn't been properly documented yet. So, naturally, i was hyped to see your run completed, hoping to see something along those lines. But maybe i was just too naive in my expectations, and plutonia doesn't really hide anything huge anymore. There are cool little tricks here and there throughout your whole run though, was very exciting to see some of those :>

And goddamn this demo looks amazing. Probably the most aesthetically pleasing movie ever so far? It looks like a work of art, which has been tailored with passion and hard work. Good job on making it that way, while also managing to end up with extremely solid times. This is a great upgrade over my ugly-looking movie, i hope you'll keep making more of those. And yes, you're right in your txt, - the last 5 maps of my run were completely built in a quick and dirty way.

[Memfis]

Yeah, this was very pleasant to watch. Regarding new tricks, I was expecting a linedef 461 skip on Map03 (the one that blocks the way out of the blue key area) but Clumsy said that he tried and couldn't do it. I guess not all triggers are skippable in Doom?

[ClumsyDoomer]

Thanks a lot! :D
I've checked some tricks I considered useful, but they were intentionally removed (even some windows' height was lowered to 55, just one unit away from doomguy's height). As for void glides, they just seem pointless because you'll have to get back in bounds.

Sure it is skippable. Basically everything is skippable.

[ClumsyDoomer]

Slow down! Won't you watch this run before obsoleting it? :D

And I am looking to holyhell map05, map starts just 1 teleporter line away from the exit...

[4shockblast]

Very nice run! I appreciate the style (though I personally don't adhere to smooth turns that strictly).

With RL (or turbo) it shouldn't be difficult. Maybe the other side is easier, dunno. (Dunno if this post should be in TAS or this thread D:)

[ClumsyDoomer]

North- and east-facing lines seem easier to skip to me. The one on map03 faces west.

[Ryback]

Whew. Think I got motion sickness from all the backwards running... and I never get motion sickness from Doom.

Great run, great style.

[Sp00kyFox]

good work!

yes, you can count on me. I'll upload it in the next few days and post it here.

What's the problem with getting back in?

[MD922]

I pretty sure you can't get back in bounds after doing a void glide :p

[dew]

Yep, at least not using the same geometry. I think I couldn't even get into the momentum-locking jackhammer at the other side of a 1-sided wall (heh). We might need a different magic angle, if it exists at all.
