I screwed up the game to voice audio balance for the stream, but luckily I locally record with separate audio channels for that, so I was able to fix that and re-upload to here.

What is Teleport%?:

In C&C Renegade, there is a hidden feature (likely a debug feature that was forgotten and not removed for the final game) where you can open up your map pause menu, and hold CTRL on your keyboard, and clicking anywhere on the map will teleport you to the top most surface on the level. This also means that teleporting into indoor areas isn't possible unless there is an open roof, so there are some levels where you still have to play normally.

This isn't allowed in the normal speedrun category, but a sub-category exists that does allow for this "trick". And this run is for that sub-category.

After educating myself a bit more on other optimal strats I failed to discover on my own in my previous run, I got another run that saved about 7 minutes. Not bad.

This is such a weird and funny category. I just find it amusing.

Also for full disclosure of what I am using with this game:

-ReShade (for post processing effects in-game, like color grading, Screenspace Ambient Occlusion [Uses the Depth Buffer], Bloom, and Screenspace Global Illumination.

-Tiberian Technologies Unofficial Patch (The game won't boot on my PC without this)

-I had a console command enabled that allows you to see the player velocity and framerate on the top right corner of the screen.

I'm still waiting on whether or not these things would be decided to invalidate this run or not. Either way though, this was still kind of a fun run to try out. May try a normal category if I can find the free time for it.

The speedrun.com rules for this game are pretty lax, so this may still all be fine, but we'll see. Regardless, still an interesting category to run as mentioned before lol.

(Click on the "Teleport" section for this category. My run is still up to debate for validation. If it makes it through, I'll rename this video to declare it as a WR, but in the mean-time, I'll hold back on that.)

Note:
I manually timed out loads, since I'm running on the retail version of Renegade, the auto splitter appears to only work for the Origin version.
