Blame Zach Siegel for that.-I did this because, well, for one, wanted to finish dimensions saveless, but also because I found it fun. Of course it wasn't fun all the time, I'd still get pissed every so often. It was never unbearable though. I wouldn't recommend trying this or any other hard run if it's giving you a bad time. Salt in doom is a real thing.-Think I misspoke about the box fight, that megasphere is always there. You don't have to fight any cybers in the box if you do it before the secret BFG. -You WanT to Be InMorTAL ,you WanT the Three FuCKiN SkuLLs ,You Have A 9mm ParaBelluM with ARmOR PierciNú BuLLeTS and ,of course ,you donúT BElieve In Old-WomanS-StorieS-of-WitchEs and TroLLs!.Play Dimensions: doomworld.com/idgames/levels/doom2/Ports/d-f/dmnsns

Thanks to Kinetic, Gosu, and 4shockblast for piquing my interest in this run. Thanks to Daerik and Nevanos for your UV-Max D2ALL runs and all the great streams that came with those. Thanks to 0xf00ba12 for helping lay the groundwork for this with the episode demos. Those are some underrated runs. Thanks to Kinetic, 0xf00ba12, Daerik, and 4shockblast for the various routes and strategies I borrowed from to make this possible. I may as well mention anyone who's done a pacifist/speed/nightmare/whatever IL run too, thank you for all the tricks that hold this demo together. Thanks to the the Pacifist Paradise server for being a place to theorycraft and for being full of great people. Thanks to everyone who was there for the streams of this run.The inception of this run came as an excuse to replay sunlust again after some talk about what a Sunlust UV-Speed would look like and from watching Kinetic's max attempts of the wad. I had dabbled a lot with Sunlust's speed tricks when I started running Doom. This familiarity gave me a starting point with which to do some basic routing. What I didn't realize going into this was just how tight my routes would have to be to make any progress with this run. It was constant practice, attempts, adjust the routes, and repeat. What came as a result is something totally different from what I started with. I'll try to mention the evolution of each map's route in the map comments.

Let me know if you like it, if so, I can keep it for the eventual d2all upload.Recorded using DSDA-Doom v0.26.2 with Boom compatibility (-complevel 9)Pwad name: sunlustMap: 17-30Skill: 4Category: UV-SpeedTime: 45:11Author: StardusterDate: 7/10/2023 (m/d/y)Comments: Recorded for d2all practice. This is a run I nearly finished quite a while ago. I've come back to it because I needed more practice with the later maps to identify any issues that could kill d2all runs and see if the routes could hold up in a demo recording setting. The routes and strategies I use now have changed drastically from what I was doing before, most notably: all of map 30, all of map 18, technique for the north glides, and a better map 25. Map 21 is the only one subject to major route change at the moment. If there's a trick I'm not using for this run, there's probably a good reason for why. I'll elaborate more on the individual maps/give route credits in the d2all text file when I can get an exit. Crossing my fingers it doesn't take too long :) as of writing, my current d2all PB is map 25. I may revisit this run again for more practice. Map 30's cathedral killed several runs of this so it was probably more difficult than it should have been.Speed demos archive: dsdarchive.comMy YouTube: youtube.com/c/stardusterYoutube upload of this demo: youtu.be/hNEJwSssLJU

This was a much larger timesave than I expected but I don't know if it has any practical use for non-TAS. Not all the time saved comes from the new route either. Apparently the ending of the last TAS I did was super slow and it can be done before the exit becomes accessible. Maybe it might be worth looking into the faster theoretical pacifist route next.Speed demos archive: dsdarchive.comMy YouTube: youtube.com/c/stardusterYoutube upload of this demo:
D5DA3 - Common Slaughtermap (100%) Starduster 2023-04-07 | Once upon a time a goofy ahhh zoomer doome named KineticBeverave made a 5 minute doom map. Today I will be telling you why this map certified goofy ahhh mapping and is very bad. Just like FCFF this is BFG spam and BFG spam is bad because I don't like the level design so maybe replace archviles with cyberdemons and stop spamming BFG and megaspheres. The only good part of this level in Doom 2 is there are no revenant demons with arch viles in closets. Clearly KineticBeverave thought it would be funny to face the player with demons and BFG which is evidenced by the goofy zoome mapping trends in society. I will not be playing D5DA3. Do not play D5DA3 because it is full of common zoomer slaughter maps with monster spam and bad level dseign.

Unfortunately the demo took a great deal of luck to get and was very frustrating, not to mention random crap I didn't bother to address before beginning attempts. There's a lot that needs to line up to get this all in one segment:-starting room bs-good HP-tight movement-archvile hallway :(-good timings in vile closet room-having enough missiles for the endOn top of all this, low framerate makes it incredibly difficult to see what's going on. It used to be a bigger problem, but thanks to optimizations made in dsda 0.25.2, I was able to come back to this map and beat it relatively quickly. The gimmicks are fun to learn imo, so long as you save frequently and make an additional save before leaving the first room :). - Achieve enlightenment and play POOGERS today: doomworld.com/idgames/levels/doom2/Ports/megawads/poogers- Source Port: github.com/kraflab/dsda-doomtaken from poog27m1120.txt:Recorded using DSDA-Doom v0.25.0 with Boom compatibility (-complevel 9)Pwad name: POOGERSMap: 27Skill: UVCategory: UV-Max / TysonTime: 11m20sAuthor: StardusterDate: 1/4/2023 (m/d/y)Comments: this was not a fun2 demo to recordSpeed demos archive: dsdarchive.comMy YouTube: youtube.com/c/starduster

FCFF Map 07 UV-Max in 29m44s Starduster 2022-12-01 | I will eventually get around to uploading a playthrough of this map with live commentary. For now, here is a UV-Max demo. This run I picked up sometime in August of this year after having watched brendondle's stream of his blind playthrough. After replaying it I quickly remembered my love for the map and wanted to try beating it without saves. The fight at 16:30 really intrigued me and I figured it would be sick to have a demo that does it legitimately (the only other max demo for this map is Daerik's, which uses a pacifist strategy to skip the fight there). That idea spiraled out from wanting an exit and nothing else, to beating Daerik's time, to breaking the 30 minute barrier. Well, finishing this run took much longer than expected, many struggles and mental blocks along the way, but I am glad with how everything turned out. This is my favorite ribbiks map and I have zero regrets.

Always a blast. This is my second attempt at post-commentary, so constructive criticism is totally welcome if anything seems out of whack.

Dimensions Map 02 UV-Max in 4m28s Starduster 2022-07-23 | Song is Kimdracula by Deftones.this thumbnail took an hour to make and doesn't even look good lmaoHere's the time I've always wanted on this map. It's far from being optimal, realistically ten seconds could be shaved off here and there. But I won't be the one to do it. This will be the last demo I submit for Dimensions. Thanks for all the GGs, was fun while it lasted.dsdarchive.com

Magnolia (UV) - Map 01 Secret Platforming Starduster 2022-07-16 | Wow this was really hard to do. The first hurdle is reaching the first lift, after that it's time for some careful SR50s. I added in my keyboard inputs for anyone unsure of what I'm doing. In case these setups do not work for you, I'm playing on 1280x720, 16:9, default FOV in the software renderer.0:24 - Jump 1Line up with the tip of your pistol, align, and SR50.0:39 - Jump 2Horizontal lineup: Face west, vert mouse backward and line up some pixels on the pistol with where the darkness meets the floor texture. Vertical lineup: Face west, mouse strafe left until the edge of your view approaches the back corner of the next platform.Align yourself and SR50.0:50 - Jump 3Vertical lineup: Use the position of the brown lift to judge your horizontal position, just in case you fall during the setup. Face south. Vert mouse forward and line up some pixels on the pistol with where the darkness meets the floor texture.Horizontal lineup: Face north. Strafe left until the switch ahead is gone from your view. Align yourself and SR50, adjusting your angle mid-jump to reach the second platform.You don't have time to set up the jumps after hitting the next switch, so I wing all of the jumps as fast as I can. Can't really think of a better way to do this. 1:24 - Conveyor JumpThis is free and very straightforward. Align yourself as if you're about to SR50 to the gate, SR50 backward using A, S, turn left, strafe for a short bit. Switch to forward SR50 using W, D, turn right, and strafe. Switching directions with SR50 takes some practice but trivializes this jump.The rest is self-explanatory. Just don't fall 3 times like I did NotLikeThis

The final video isn’t up yet because life happened and I got sick. Can’t record commentary when I’m sick :) so it’s been on hold for a bit. Just a heads up that it’ll be coming soon.
POOGERS Map 31 - First Two Fights Starduster 2022-06-13 | 32 attempts. Done on Ultra-Violence in one segment. Credits to KineticBeverage for the first fight's strategy. This map is too hard for me to UV-Max, so to improve my game, I want to seek some consistency with all of its fights, beginning with the first two. The first fight went through some major changes throughout the development of Poogers. In the final release, it is presented as a plus-shaped arena with sides that open up simultaneously when shot. I never got a chance to play the beta releases before this fight was changed, but from what I can see, it looks completely different. The second fight also went through a few minor changes in regards to balancing during development.Out of 32 attempts I think three or four got past the start. Success in the first fight depends on a little bit of luck and your ability to efficiently path monsters. I spent a couple hours searching for a strategy, until Kinetic explained his to me. With time I'm sure I can achieve some more consistency there. As far as luck goes, it's game over if too many revenants approach you in the very beginning. The cybers rule what you can do at any moment, so beware of them. Sometimes I can't make it around them because they tend to pick the worst possible places to stand. Funnily enough, I forgot to go to the first secret fight when I first played this map. And when I first tried it, the fight itself didn't seem that tough. Now I'm not so sure of my strategy for it. In this attempt you can see I just barely squeezed past the hell knights. Most of the time they don't let me through, but I can't say why. Something to do with monster pathing and timing the run past them. I'll have to do more testing and investigation with my strategy to perfect it. Aside from that one bit of RNG, it isn't too difficult to survive the fight itself before I bail out. There's a ton of things to keep track of in your head during the fight. Sometimes you have no choice but to eat shit when there's projectiles flying in every which direction and an aggressive vile taking every chance he can get to target you. But I find it to be fun. I wouldn't expect another video of this map until I decide to do a full playthrough of it with saves, showcasing all of the fights and their best strategies. Next stop is the BFG room, something I really need to work on before I can move on.
Dark Universe (100%) - Map 02: Weve Been Boarded! Starduster 2022-06-07 | This map was beaten:On Ultraviolence,With a pistol start,Max (100% kills and secrets),And with the occasional savegame.About Dark Universe: "Dark Universe is a horror/survival style Doom WAD made for GZDoom. The primary means of survival is exploration. All the items, weapons, and health that you need will be found in secret rooms and out-of-the-way areas. Some of these areas will require keys to access. Keys are not needed to complete any of the maps, but you will run low on many needed resources if you exit maps without at least some exploration... you have been warned."I sure do love to start playthroughs and never finish them... but this is 100% worth finishing. Dark Universe won a Cacoward in 2018, but didn't receive much attention, sadly. So if you can tolerate GZDoom and like what you see please give this mapset a shot. The amount of work put into detailing, texturing, scripting, layouts, monster placement - it just continues to blow my mind. It all adds up to create an immersive experience that keeps you playing. I think the only fault of this wad is its length. Wish there was more to play.
