AKheon | Deadly Premonition (PS3) - wasted potential at Lumber Mill @AKheon | Uploaded July 2023 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
I tested if you could skip some early Chapters by going inside the Lumber Mill early.
First step is getting the dog past the outer fence so that you can use a dog-assisted wallclip to clip inside the Lumber Mill building. Well, I don't have a particular setup for this; in this test it just happened while running around the perimeter of the building a few laps. The dog is quite likely to clip through walls if just left to its own devices...
Second step is finding a cramped enough space so that the dog's turning animation can push York through a wall. This was surprisingly fast since there isn't much space between the fence and the building.
But alas, the building's door does not have a loading trigger that would take you to the otherworld-section early. I guess it's not a surprise; after all, you never enter this location through the front door anyway.
