j4rio Posted June 28, 2013 So it was decided that the next choice of wad to receive a demopack will be Eternally Yours - a short 11-level wad by valkiriforce. Preferable category choice is UV-max, but with increased activity in other categories they can be added as mandatory as well, which would be plausible considering lower density of maps. Due to same reason improving runs is highly encouraged, and after reaching a goal of recording desired demos, there will be at least a month free for any kind of competition. Preferable port of choice for recording should be compatible with behavior of vanilla doom, therefore prboom-plus with complevel 2 is recommended. Post your demos here, in this thread. Textfile is not needed, unless you really want to, since you'll get to fill out demopack textfile later. @Andy - Don't add demos from this thread to DSDA. That should be all, hopefully I haven't forgotten anything. Go forth and record.

4shockblast Posted June 28, 2013 Alright, all the demos I made so far. Map 01 UV-Speed in 0:20. Map 01 UV-Max in 2:02. Map 02 UV-Max in 5:53. Map 03 UV-Max in 4:09 Map 04 UV-Speed in 0:46. I also have a Map 02 UV-Speed in 2:14, but it's a first exit and not very good, so I'm not uploading it yet.eydemos.zip 0 Share this post Link to post

Once you kill the barons, you can fire at the icon of sin. kunkun said:It's possible to grab the blue key through the wall in the chaingunner room but I'm not sure if there's any reliable setup for it. It probably wouldn't save that much time anyway though. Hmm... didn't think of that for some reason. I'll try it a bit and see if it's worth recording a new run for. 0 Share this post Link to post
dew Posted June 28, 2013 map01 UV-Pacifist in 0:20 this was profoundly, almost mystically frustrating and unfun to do, heh. rng: the game. snaggy corners and fat hyperactive hitscanners everywhere.ey01p020.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
kunkun Posted June 28, 2013 Now with a demo, the grab feel surprisingly easy... the rj on the other hand doesn't. Apparently you can't edit in file attachments.ey04-grab.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
4shockblast Posted June 28, 2013 Here's a six seconds improved demo, still improvable, though. The keygrab works fairly often with strafe50.ey04-040.zip 0 Share this post Link to post

Based on my experience with the first four levels, that level of frustration applies pretty much everywhere. 0 Share this post Link to post

blob1024 Posted June 28, 2013 yea, i dont care if mr john summoned new shits, we need to wipe the "key monsters" once, thats all I need to know here :p 0 Share this post Link to post
dew Posted June 28, 2013 sigh... in map02 it's possible to jump out of the "you saved the solar system" room, but the final area is encircled with an impassible rim, so you'll only fall down into the decor city where you become stuck. a shame, that would've been a lovely exploit and it's just half-treated. :P 0 Share this post Link to post

Doesn't seem possible to perform a "fence glide" type trick through the rim either because all the corners are at right angles. 0 Share this post Link to post
4shockblast Posted June 29, 2013 Eternally Yours Map 01 UV-Max in 1:57. The demo just before this one was a 2:01, and I decided I'd have one more attempt and got this one.ey01-157.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
blob1024 Posted June 30, 2013 ey map11 uv-max in 07:56* after a second exit in 08:52, considering a sub9 a "good" aim, i tried once more and got this. jesus I suck at estimating. I think this is pretty good, give it a look and tell me if i should keep trying. Ill move from map11 downside till I meet a map already taken probably ;)ey11-756.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
blob1024 Posted June 30, 2013 oh geez. cant reach the automap in map10, what triggers the access to the teleporter for it? did i miss a switch? cus I check whole map twice entirely btw whats the sense in megasphere near the end o_o 0 Share this post Link to post

Inside that area, in none of the alcoves at the top, there are two torches inside the wall. The left wall of the left torch has a different texture than the other walls inside the torches; triggering it will lower the teleporter on the other side to the automap. Oh, and there's no point at all to the megasphere. 0 Share this post Link to post
blob1024 Posted June 30, 2013 umh okay! ill look to other maps first then or to your vid before posting ;) meanwhile map09 in 09:36** will improve for sure today edit: ive check that secret but playing with the torches and running the other side didnt work edit2: ok worked nowey09-936.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
blob1024 Posted July 1, 2013 map10 uv max 09:08** where's everyone? I'm back on uvfast for now I guess, take the rest! (or my levels if u can improve ofc)ey10-908.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
4shockblast Posted July 2, 2013 Map 09 TAS UV-Speed in 0:13 (trick demonstration, I think that this can be uploaded to the DSDA). Anyone want to attempt this without TAS?ey09x013.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted July 2, 2013 If you feel like doing more TAS runs, maybe try jumping from the first lift on map06 to the main area without taking the key. I think I accidentally almost did it once (already was staying on the ledge but didn't realize that and quit) but I'm not sure. 0 Share this post Link to post

kunkun Posted July 2, 2013 Map02 speed in 1:35 This level really is something. After getting the yellow key, the narrow corridor with a bunch of teleporting monsters is hilariously random. I managed to do a run where I skipped the plasma rifle.. and it was slower than with it. Yeehaw.ey02-0135.zip 0 Share this post Link to post

I think I accidentally almost did it once (already was staying on the ledge but didn't realize that and quit) but I'm not sure. I couldn't do it after a bit of trying, but it still might be possible, perhaps with a perfect corner cut. I don't think it's worth trying to get it to work without TAS, since it wouldn't save that much time and there's still the somewhat difficult rocket jump to perform. I made a TAS of the level where I boost myself with the demon over the edge (though that wouldn't be easy non-TAS either).ey06x020.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted July 2, 2013 Yeah, I think my accidental jump also involved some kind of a boost. Performing it along with a rocket jump at the end is definitely too much for a non-TAS run unless you are dew or something. (he made a sod19 speedrun with like 5 non-trivial tricks in a row) 0 Share this post Link to post
