Hey everyone  
I’ve been casually speedrunning HL1 for a while now and I’m trying to learn new strats (since I use fairly dated ones). I’ve been trying to learn how to do the TC skip and I followed [alexh0we’s tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eBOWNg-SVE) on how to perform this trick.  
Everything goes right, I align it properly (I checked like 4 times) I get exactly 2182 speed (I use the pause trick to get it more consistently) but then when I unpause I gain almost no altitude.  
Here’s a clip showing what’s happening [link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHmmfdbmdYI)  
Anyone got any idea what I’m doing wrong?  
I use cl\_pitchdown 90 and cl\_pitchup 90

You are looking one pixel too low.

Also, changing cl\_pitchup 90 and cl\_pitchdown 90 are not allowed to be changed in scriptless (default is 89).
