Half Life 2 Old Engine Rerun

afaik the 1000ups cap isnt real, it just gets harder and slower to gain speed after 1000ups
you can in the right conditions go to almost 2000ups just with bhop

Flying is capped at 1000ups; bhop is not.

At 1000ups you drop objects, so you can’t fly faster than that or you lose the fly.

Is there a 2707 download somewhere in a form other than a torrent? I’m afraid to use torrents ever since my ISP fined me for pirating stuff

Just copy the Materials, Media, Models and Sound files to the hl2 directory from your original Steam version VPKs (with GCFScape).

No need to thank me

Turreu’s canals run was about 4:19 faster than the airboating in Dwahmov so I’m kinda sceptical about that estimate.

I already made a really slow phase 1 run for boatless canals, thats where I got the estimate.

This is just an idea, but what about regrabbing the object the moment you drop it like on the Orange Box engine? It may be doable in real-time with a lot of complex scripting and / or some extra SPT functionality (in the future).

Doesn’t work, not even in new engine.

I’d be curious to see this.

Technically you don’t drop it, it just can’t keep up and falls out of reach

If you watch HL2DQ, and skip to coast_12, you can see them start to lose the pallet

Is there a Skype Group for this run yet?

Yeah, this

[mike]

Yeah, I sort of thought of that. Though I guess you could fly faster and the very end if you no longer need the prop and just soar through the air the rest of the way XD

@Jukspa

Another map in coast that’s worth looking at is coast_09. I’m not really familiar with how flying works but can’t you just fly over the water and skip going all the way around the map? I imagine it’s really hard but I don’t see why you couldn’t do it.

Im pretty sure you can fly over the sea with enough speed/timing

In my example the granade doesnt even hit the sledge, at best you could fly to the moon.

E: Fuck, uploaded the wrong clip and deleted the right one, w/e atleast it shows how its done

How far did you go in the good clip?

Last one didn’t work.

this one should, when you get to the installation part where you have two options that are in Cyrillic (russian) chose the second one.

Here are a couple of strats for the last part of d1_trainstation_02:

I did this in one segment without scripts because I can’t be bothered setting that stuff up (yet). It’s maybe possible to launch straight over the fence, and definitely possible to get much more speed from being whacked by the Combine guard.

You can also get a lot of height from the guard if you are positioned correctly, so it might be possible to land right next to the door of the building without bunny hopping along the path at all.

They launched over the fence in done quick.

[mike]

Did they? I don’t remember seeing that lol

[Heplooner]

I guess I should post this here for you guys not in the Skype group

Propflying over the entire section to the door works much better than waiting around for a guard to hit you.

[mike]

The guard only takes a second or two to hit you, and you can get a pretty big boost (I didn’t).

In this run, every second counts, and after the guard hits you you lose most that speed going around the corner anyway, although the box boost you showed could work well.
