ok, that explains many things ^^.
(sagt mir mal deutsche speedruns, will die laden ^^. ich dachte hier wären nur amerikaner, schön, das ich nicht alleine bin  )

Sorry, Phallosvogel, but you're incorrect about the tense... it's "haben erobert" or "eroberten" depending on where you come from
However, stick to English so the others can read it, too. My Mafia run is in Germany, but I think it's far away from perfect. However, I'm too lazy to record it via vhs since it takes so many retries because of the many car accidents one easily runs into and it is a pain to redigitalize from vhs everytime just to see that it isn't better. If I ever get a notebook that allows easy recording I'll probably redo it, however, that's a different story.
Haven't seen any other speedrun with the game language set to German, might be wrong though.

[Phallosvogel]

many adventure-runners are german/austrian; or Dark_Devil (member of HL2DQ and runner of HL:BS) is german too

Und hey: wir sind ja wohl noch mitten drin beim erobern

[The_Night]

Mafia? I think I starting downloading it ^^

Jop, aber bis mal ein fünftel der Speedruns geschafft haben, vergeht schon eine laaaange zeit

aber immerhin gibt es speedruns
nur in spanisch, französisch und anderen sprachen würde es ein wenig den spaß rauben. Naja.

imo is fahrenheit/indigo prophecy a nice game but is thetre really a chance to improve much of a speedrun?
the most scenes are in one speed. you have not really the chance to save much of the time you play certain levels.

[The_Night]

but there are levels (for example the first 4 levels [Docs Diner Lucas , Dos Diner Police, Lucas Home, and the Meeting with Markus], where you can run sometimes, or often. Lucas Home is a good Level for speedrun. Short Cutszenes, and lots of Aktions where you control it yourself(like to take the key on the table). The same is with the Level of the Libbrary with Tayler.

[The_Night]

I think in the half of the game you can run.
I remember that I played and recorded the most time of the game again and again, because I hit something that I slow down, or I didn't get the door or a talk with someone.
If you look on an other way,I played and recorded the game 5 times. And then I understand why the most runners cut the cutszenes. I looked the Intro 3 times. :-/

[maze]

that's right but if you skip the most of the good-things (like saving the child on the meeting with marcus or saving all of your friens in the military-level) to get a faster time you won't have enough health to survive ie the discussion in the office between lucas and the police officer.

thats my problem whilst playing on hard-difficulty.

[CannibalK9]

Doesn't hard difficulty only affect the difficulty of the up,down,left,right sequences - I dont recall it having a bearing on sanity.

[maze]

i dunno but if thats right you can't let the most things to do as is cause there isn't enough health like i said above.

The thing with the children I past as the time line (the blue thing) was on the half. The only thing to make that level faster is to find all children  :-/

I played on easy (I know, it is boring, but if you play with this camera on speed, it is like silent hill 4 for pc. FUCK camera, and the nerves are down of playing with the 2 rings again and again, so I choosed easy) and one time on middle.
In easy you are allowed to miss some colors of the rings. but und middle, you must get them.
I think at hard it goes faster, and longer.

[The_Night]

Some things that are good I have recorded.
The child Szene I compleded, the military Szene, at the end with Tayler and his wife, etc.

But I done bad szenes for cuting time.
Where your girldfriend comes to you to take her 2 boxes. I made the shortest dialog, where she goes directly.
The thing in the police academy too. I shoot against the hostages paper, to cut the time down 5 seconds less.

Radix says he still needs one verifier. Come on pals

[maze]

yeah i do played it on ps2 but i don't really want to watch this 4 1/2 hour video.

i think i can but maybe 4-5gb of diskspace aren't available at present.

and to download this takes too much time.

[CannibalK9]

I would happily verify it.

I'll PM Radix at some point in case he doesn't read this.
