started playing again a few days ago for sub tas, then today i wake up and it got sniped by wyrnicus so rip(youtube.com/watch?v=Xzrh8p7NBgQ).
but then i got this 8.5 hours later by getting a really clean second half. it's also tick tie to the old inaccurate timing for the portal tas which is cool.
a perfect run now stands at ~5:09 with current routes.
this run might technically be invalid because i'm increasing a variable called 'sv_max_queries_sec' which prevents long loads from happening. wyrnicus and i use this command because it makes fast pcs not have to deal with constant freezing when doing save load abuse(see my inbounds 8:32). but it literally just got discovered so it isn't officially leaderboard legal yet.

![Portal Inbounds in 7:58.875s [FWR, Read Description]
This uses 02 skip which is a route that is currently banned due to lack of verification tools to ensure that no props fall out of bounds. So while it is the first sub 8, it cant be accepted to leaderboards so my 8:01 is still technically world record.
02 skip uses a glitch called ISG to go through the glass at the start of the map so you dont need to wait for the door to open. This is only possible on recent steam builds of the game, which add the ability to carry radios through map transitions(would previously crash), and the ability to toggle radios off(radio in 03 instantly falls oob if ISG is on when loading the map). A good execution of 02 skip on average saves 15-16s over the standard route, so this run is actually about 10s sloppier than my 8:01. Steam builds also change save glitch slightly, which is why you see a different 02 save glitch and a slower save glitch setup in a few other maps.
