Quake done Quickest 2 (QdQst2) INTRODUCTION: Quake done Quickest 2 is a single-player speedrun through all of Quake on the nightmare difficulty. This improves upon 'Quake done Quickest', which was released on December 29th, 2011 - and completes the game in 11:29. INSTALLATION: Unzip QdQst2.zip into your Quake directory as if it were any other mod, and either start the game with '-game qdqst2' in the launch options, or using the in-game mods menu if available. If these steps have been followed correctly, you should now have access to the playback menu upon starting. WATCHING THE MOVIE: 'Play all of QdQst2' will continuously play all demos back-to-back. Opening one of the episode menus will allow you to watch the selected episode, or chose from a single level. You can use the following keys during playback: F1 / slow-motion F2 / normal speed F3 / fast forward F5 / rewind (JoeQuake only) F9 / skips to next demo F10 / return to menu F12 / quit These videos are also available to watch here on YouTube: https://youtu.be/8tTIhplSj1w - Main First-Person Video by Sphere https://youtu.be/G9yaylEoWes - Teaser Trailer by Khristov Comming Soon - Video Commentary by Quake Speedruns Explained HOW THE RUN WAS RECORDED: Each level was recorded individually with rough starting stats, and later ran through a script for the stats to be checked and adjusted, so each demo fits correctly into the next. TIMING: As tradition with Quake SDA, the full-time is calculated by rounding down each level, with excluded intermission times and start maps.
