i watched, it, i was amazed to say the least.. the way the wings just sprouted out of his ass during each jump, his obviously prehensile toes to grasp walls with, his faster than run legs, and his homing ammo.. it was amazing.

someone obviously played the game before.

There's hardly a queue whenever I try to download stuff off fileplanet. Usually 1 min or less. [addsig]

The video has been sped up by about 1.2 times... still pretty good though

Some nice bhopping skills he has there. His use of tripmines is pretty clever too. Reminds of me of making mine ladders in NS to get into a vent. [addsig]

Speed at which he moves (including through ducts), and you can tell from the pitch of the voices of the scientists when they talk, too...

He moves through the ducts quickly because he is wallhugging i.e. when you strafe against the side of a duct, you move faster. And the scientists voices don't seem any more high-pitched or faster than I remember them from Half-Life... [addsig]

In addition to the wall hugging, the lipsync and stuff screws up with demo recording.

Just downloaded it ... the voices are a bit pitched, indeed ... but not all the time. And the synchronization has to do something with Fraps ... a little delay or something.

Amazing video, anyway. Those tripmines, lol.

yeh. the reason i dont use fraps for my cs movies, is because it makes it faster and screws with the sync. i just use the startmovie function in the console. sure it takes longer, but it gives more control and better end quality in my opinion. [addsig]

What the hell - I didn't know tripmines were solid. I usually blow up when I try to stand on them. [addsig]

You have to wall-strafe before you jump on em ... if you jump on them from a different angle, they will surely blow in your face.

I just watched the first 30 minutes of the movie ... I'm impressed ... I'm quite sure he didn't cheat in the movie or changed the speed, just the sound screws up from time to time, but that's a Fraps Problem. If he converted the demo's to AVI, we would have no sound ... and watching a timeattack video without the original HL sounds would be just boring
