For once in my life, I’ve actually achieved something noteworthy!
In case you haven’t already figured it out, OBS cannot record the video game itself unless it is played on windowed mode (which speed runners before me have bypassed using virtual machines). In case I also haven’t already mentioned it in the video, I do have another Mac that contains a virtual machine that can play the game, but it is way laggier and has a higher tendency to hang mid-game (not to mention I’d foolishly spilt water on the keyboard twice, rendering a few of my keys either trippy or partially broken).
MISSION START TIMESTAMPS:
Mission 01 - 00:06
Mission 02 - 02:58
Mission 03 - 10:19
Mission 04 - 12:49
Mission 05 - 18:34
Mission 06 - 26:40
Mission 07 - 42:46
SPECIFICS:
1) For official submission to speedrun.com under Command and Conquer: Yuri’s Revenge (Allied).
2) Difficulty: Hard
3) This is my first time speed running any game *officially*, so my methods from recording game to time are rather traditional. Apologies if quality isn’t best.
The end of the video has already shown the splits and individual missions’ in-game completions times, but here they are as well:
Time Lapse - 2:24
Hollywood and Vain - 7:29
Power Play - 2:26
Tomb Raided - 5:47
Clones Down Under - 8:15
Trick or Treaty - 16:33
Brain Dead - 14:38
----------------
TOTAL -- 57:32
----------------
REAL TIME - 56:46
(Idk how the calculation for RT w/o loads works so I’m just going to leave that :P)
PERSONAL NOTES:
“Will I try for a YR Soviet Campaign WR?”
I don’t see the challenge in Easy, so until I figure out a way to play Hard at Easy pace (which might actually be impossible), that probably ain’t happenin’. :/
Two of my classmates were on Discord with me for practically the entire morning. It took time “Leedle”-ing out the sensitive words mentioned in that one single hour … ;-;
Following an unfortunate hanged Mission 6 run in an 8-hour grind, with 2 weeks of practice and experimentation, after 4 years of waiting for the motivation to do what I had thought was impossible more than 14 years ago, I finally beat one full campaign of the game that started my gaming career at what is considered world record pace. (Edit: Someone managed to beat my record, posted just a day after I finished this run, so sadly this isn't currently #1 ;-;).
RNG and frames were my main opponents in these runs. To be fair, RNG was actually kinder to me in this specific run than it usually is. Looking back, my lifesaving, huge time save was in the 5th mission. My main sources of time loss were in the last two missions: in Trick or Treaty, I accidentally triggered the ore miners to stay right in front of Yuri’s base; in Brain Dead, I messed up my 2nd Chronosphere timing and placement. I could ramble about every other little detail that I could improve upon, but I’d rather save that for an actual video that would serve as an in-depth discussion of what I should and shouldn’t have done along with my thoughts and plans throughout this run. If any speed runners are interested, let it be known through the video reception and I just might make a video! ;)
