The term was coined during early Doom speedrunning. When Andy "Aurican" Kempling released a modified version of the Doom source code that made it possible to record demos in slow motion and in several sessions, it was possible for the first players to start recording tool-assisted demos. In a few months, in June 1999, Finnish Esko Koskimaa ...
Writing for techraptor.net, Andrew Stretch wrote, "[Running with Speed takes] the time to set up what Speedrunning is at the start, giving viewers a working foundation of knowledge before diving deep enough into Speedrunning to explain how pixel-perfect jumps and sequence breaking are so important to get the best possible times while speedrunning games like Super Mario Bros. 3 or Super Metroid.
The development of a strong speedrunning community is considered to have originated with the 1993 computer game Doom. [2] [3] [4] The game retained the "par time" mechanic from Wolfenstein and included a feature that allowed players to record and play back gameplay using files called demos (also known as game replays).
The 4:55 barrier is expected to be the last "full second" barrier for Super Mario Bros. speedrunning. [6] The community called the milestone "historic". [8] Orland writes that the video of the run is worth watching to hear Niftski's exclamations. Elizabeth Henges of Eurogamer also notes the emotion shown by Niftski upon reaching the milestone. [9]
It was themed around 8-bit and 16-bit video games and thus dubbed "Classic Games Done Quick" (after the 1990s speedrunning project Quake Done Quick). Internet connectivity problems at the MAGFest hotel forced SDA administrator Mike Uyama to relocate the event to his mother's residence, but it raised over $10,000 for CARE .
The anti-lag system (ALS) is a method of reducing turbo lag or effective compression used on turbocharged engines to minimize turbo lag on racing or performance cars. It works by retarding the ignition timing and adding extra fuel (and sometimes air) to balance an inherent loss in combustion efficiency with increased pressure at the charging side of the turbo.
Unlike conventional speedrunning records, the individual players who worked on these runs are not listed since there are always many different players working on these projects. Instead, the records are usually attributed to the “Quake done Quick team”, and details on who made which portion of the run can be found in the runs' descriptions.
