Description:
stx-Vile's 30ns5600 was done in 2004, over 12 years ago! Before stx-Vile, Doom 2 NM100S was completed by 3 other people: Henning, Vincent and Ryback. It was first done in 2001 by Henning, who is the only one to have more than one exit (3 times). So a time of 47:52 is just over 8 minutes faster than the previous record which stood for 12 years, main reason for the large time improvement is because of the tricks that have been discovered since. Big thanks to those guys for showing it was possible in the first place!
Some notes about the secrets:
On map 15 you can only get 9/10 secrets, at around 22:30 you can see me open a wall on map 15 which has a teleporter, this is the only secret that I cannot grab. In order to trigger the secret I need doomguys center to be in the secret area, but because it's too small you first get lifted up when walking into the teleporter, thus making it impossible to be on the ground in that secret area.
On map 27 I do a skip on an north facing teleport linedef to grab 100%, this is not required since it's very precise to grab and nobody knew if it was possible many years ago. Maps 14,21,29,30 have no secrets. I also do not play with "A secret is revealed!" message so I need to take special care to make sure I trigger some of them.
This is my longest nightmare run so far, a bit longer than plutonia.
My next plans are to attempt to beat Final Doom: TNT Evilution on nightmare difficulty, which has never been done before. I expect it to be at least an hour long if it ever reaches the end.

26:00 - when i started playing Doom II as a kid - dunno why - but for me this map was really scary . Maybe it's because of those Revenants around every corner. Or that place where you grab a card, and then find yourself surrounded by neverending wave of monsters teleporting out of nowhere... Or maybe it was because of that creepy, eerie music. Hmmm

[@PatRick-kp3jk]

I feel your pain

[@alifunterz]

Basically, These guys don't play this game officially. They used GZDoom, A third-party software that allows this game to be run on newer version of Windows. I literally mean to say that those softwares allows the player to play with mouse very easier so that they can make Tool-Assisted Speedruns (TAS). While in the official DOS version of the game, Player doesn't need to play with mouse because that is not comfort to play with Mouse on that version. Sorry for bad English, Hope you understand !!

[@infinityacceptance3257]

Me too

[@alifunterz]

Hmph! Now I see the description, You are right He is not using GZDoom. I thought that there is only one unofficial source port (GZDoom), Never heard of Competitive Doom, Chocolate Doom or Prboom etc. Anyway, Thanks for the correction.

[@MyCaptainX]

[@condor.67]

So, playing on Ultra-Violence with "sv_fastmonsters true" is essencially Nightmare mode without the respawns and double ammo (cuz there's not need since the monsters don't respawn). People say that monsters do more damage on Nightmare, that's not true. You get that impression cuz "sv_fastmonsters" is turned on by default and the respawns change all the perspective

[@Starhawke_Gaming]

(Edit, updated as comment below) @Zero Master - This run category really needs to be updated now that the final secret on map 15 has been solved. I am sure it will seriously increase the overall run time unless a faster solution is able to be found. Perhaps a "actually 100%" speedrun category needs to be added to preserve the validity of the old runs. But yeah, this is definitely not a 100% run any longer.

[@Starhawke_Gaming]

Update: I just looked through your videos and saw the updated one you posted two days ago with the real 100% run. Good job. I commented here first because this video was the one that popped up on my suggestion feed.

[@phealotful]

Do you plan to do TNT or Plutonia NM100S run? Nobody did it before. If not, what are the next runs on your list?

[@ZeroMaster]

The first 10 maps for TNT would be too difficult for anyone, a full run would also be over 2 hours which makes it even more extreme. Plutonia was almost impossible already without getting the secrets, but I don't think any of the maps become too hard like stronghold for TNT. I was thinking of doing the episodes for plutonia (maps 01-10,11-20,21-30), but a full run would be too much. So, I'll see if maps 01-10, 11-20 and 21-30 nm100s for plutonia is possible, but full runs for tnt and plutonia is too difficult. Next run planned is doom 2 uv-speed again for now, but maybe I can do these episodes before that, not sure.

[@phealotful]

Zero Master I remember you saying that TNT 1-30 NMS is too much for anyone, but you did it! ;-) The thing is that you are not anyone, but you are the ONE. Waiting forward to see your 1-10 11-20 21-30 NM100S runs for both TNT and Plutonia, and when the time comes... the full runs! Only that 2x NM100S runs keep you from from being an ultimate Doom God. Your won't rest until you do it. Deep inside your heart you know it's possible.

[@PartyCrasher04]

[@reptongeek]

Congrats on the run that was amazing. Regarding Map 15 Industrial Zone and that secret you cannot grab. According to Classic Doom it's the sector before the teleporter which you can actually stand in but in the version we have to use it doesn't tag. However in his LP of Doom II LightningBoltForever using v1.666 (or I think he was there were no secrets in Map 31 or 32) managed to get 100% secrets in Industrial Zone. He was showing it off and to his great surprise it actually tagged. This seems to indicate that id moved this secret to the teleporter when they made v1.9. Do you know where I can locate a copy of v1.666 to verify this

[@ZeroMaster]

You can grab the secret in zdoom, if anyone grabbed it without cheats then zdoom or some non-vanilla sourceport is probably why.

[@reptongeek]

I've been back to have a look at both LightningBoltForever and BigMacDavis do Map 15 - BMD actually uses ZDOOM as it happens. LBF in his version visibly triggers the secret is revealed message before he steps onto the teleporter whilst BMD using (presumably) v1.9 has to use IDCLIP and his message only pops up when he stands on the teleporter, which seems to support my theory. This is becoming an obsession that I need to put to bed quickly before I go mad!!!
