How the GTAV Stunt Jumps Speedrun does 50 Jumps in just 22 Minutes

[@FriendlyBaron]

saurus's channel/run: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZ6VZIGbabqcqq8 very cool stunt jumps mod (PC single player only): github.com/videogame-hacker/StuntJumpPractice & hackery.site/writing/gta-v-stunt-jumps/ theres quite a few small things and strat updates i want to talk about regarding stunt jumps still, so probably gonna make an update video on it. as always, twitter for things, i'll probably post extra stuff there twitter.com/FriendlyBaron but if you have questions that dont fit into a comment, discord is better discord.gg/friendlybaron

ditto : I've got 138 days in the game and for now the 1st time completed all

[@brandonivo7137]

As someone who isn't too crazy about speedruns, this was so satisfying to watch because I didn't even think the game would allow us to do 38 stunt jumps without setting a timer to deliver the car (and plus, that last one was always a nightmare to complete).

[@FriendlyBaron]

yeah the whole strat of doing then IN a mission is so smart, i want to cover some of the older runs in a bonus video to show how it changed. we used to do all the ones at the docks in a panto, because it was easier to fit on this skinny ramps lol

[@TheSultan1470]

Nah, usually when a mission doesn't explicitly state there is a time limit, there isn't one. Putting one here would be nonsensical anyway. You have the gold medal objectives and that's it.

[@morrishuijgen7658]

I remember spending all day on the xbox 360 trying to complete that jump haha

[@alexhonix3125]

I sadly don't think that many people understand how insanely difficult this run is. Whenever people ask me what i thought the hardest WR is to beat in this game i always instantly say All Stunt Jumps. Nailing all 50 of them with all the different landings zones is insane. Your first All Stunt Jumps guide made me start running it back in the day. maybe the second itteration of it will make me get back to that category...

[@FriendlyBaron]

i think adding the mod made things look too easy in this video lol

[@olliecole7163]

ASJ grind GOGOGOOG

[@peteleclair7044]

I agree with both how the mod definitely helped and how hard it still is to actually maintain a maximum speed. even if drive lines showing exact path and brake points where used. Without some guidance it'd take forever to actually remember the route. I was imagining having pace notes and a co driver like rally racing being only way to have a chance if I where to attempt this.

I've been speedrunning this game for over a year now, never bothered with ASJ. Just 2 days ago I discovered your 3 year old video on your former ASJ WR and thought I'd give this category a try when I return home from holiday. And now this lmao. Thanks for the great content, lovely to have you 'back'

[@FriendlyBaron]

thanks! its a fun short category

[@cerjmedia]

Considering the incredibly non-linear category that this is, I can't imagine how much time and effort was spent in simply just knowing the most optimal order to take all the stunt jumps, let alone the skill and luck required in moving around random traffic. The boxes shown are actually pretty cool and useful, so thanks for showing them!

[@FriendlyBaron]

The route is definitely a huge part of this run. I am considering making a comparison to the older runs so that i can show how the route changed (and giving me a chance to talk about who came up with the changes!). the mod is wicked, and the main reason i made this vid. i considered making another vid with boxes/no-boxes side by side so people could really appreciate how much harder it is without the boxes

[@barneyhijweege2146]

Don't get me wrong, i have nothing with speedruns (do like to watch some) but whenever i hear mod or whatever to me it's cheating. It's like giving someone a third leg to run against Bolt. To me these things should be with no cheats or mods whatsoever. Now let me see your a big boy without using those extra's.

[@FriendlyBaron]

@@barneyhijweege2146 Try watching the whole video before commenting! As stated at the end of the video, the mod is only a practice tool and to help visualize the jumps for this video.

yeah! i cant remember if the older route has the pantos, but that was a strat for awhile too! get a panto to easily fit on the skinny jumps on the docks

You took 28 minutes to completely explain and break down a 22 minute speedrun, that's crazy good video making. Also I'm not speedrunning, just trying to complete the jumps and this breakdown of landing boxes etc has clarified so many failed attempts!

[@PerryByford]

This was the tightest script I’ve ever seen. Constantly giving information while staying in time with the video. Very impressed.

[@filmandfirearms]

That's really down to the editing more than the script. You can cut out pauses wherever you want and lengthen or shorten specially curated clips to fit the speaking. I personally edit the audio first, then add the video to fit the audio, and I'd imagine most editors do the same

[@PerryByford]

@@filmandfirearms but here’s the thing. They didn’t do any editing to the footage. It’s one clip played out in real time because it has to be since it’s a speed run with a timer. I’m an editor too so I’d like to think I’d be able to spot any edits they did but I can’t. There aren’t any gaps in the narration it’s just info after info all perfectly timed.

[@guy_th18]

@@FriendlyBaron A Tom Scott vid on the subject, a video analyzing another Tom Scott vid, some videogamedunkey and hbomberguy presentations, an old stream showing how shounic (tf2 trivia youtuber with insanely high quality animation) does his stuff, one badly written presentation from xisumavoid that despite having good intentions pissed everyone off due to tone issues, and whatever video I can find that manages to make people interested in a subject they'd otherwise have no reason to care about since that's ultimately what I'd like to do as well. I'm adding this one because it's the best example I've ever seen of a "run analysis" type video (something I'd want to do too, for Touhou scoreruns) and I'd like to analyze its script. It flowed incredibly well, necessary info was relayed progressively and clearly as it became relevant, and there were just a few necessary pauses to explain things in more detail. I'll probably watch it a few more times, to be honest!

[@FriendlyBaron]

@@guy_th18 neat! i agree on the shounic vids, his presentation of some of the more complex topics he covers is very solid, it feels easy enough for programming newbs to understand but in depth enough that having more background knowledge in Source code, even i don't feel bored by it the main thing i do differently than most people, i think, (which makes my videos take longer to produce) is i don't prewrite my scripts and sit down to read it in one go. i usually do 2-3 sentences at a time, talk over the footage to see how the timing works, then rewrite a bit to make the things match up even better to what is happening on screen. in a strat update style video, its a bit easier since i can just make the buffer footage around the actual strat longer or shorter, but, in a video like this where i do it without time remap or many cuts besides the map interludes, it's a lot of work to keep the voicelines relevant, timed, and on topic the whole time.

[@guitaristkuro8898]

In scripting I learned a lot about how vehicle damage works in GTA. There are three health pools: engine, body, and gas tank that are all set to 1000. Only engine and tank will affect your car’s performance when they get to less than 400. Melee attacks do fixed damage to the vehicle’s body unless you hit a specific spot like the hood or grill for engine damage. Firearms also do fixed damage in the same way, but some can also hit the engine from the side fenders. Hitting obstacles does a lot of damage as long as you hit head on and the obstacle is solid. Any sort of glancing impact or impacts with vehicles usually do little to no damage. Your car flipping and rolling also does little to no damage, but almost every impact that’s isn’t dead on is kinda random as well. Most interesting thing about the damage values is destroying windows counts for the entire amount of the car’s body health separate from the car’s actual body If you shoot all the windows even just once the body health will be zero.

[@FriendlyBaron]

this pretty much lines up with what i've experienced playing the game! you know, i just realized reading this, i wonder if rockstar has the fly-out-of-car thing disabled during this first mission to make things easier for new players, might explain why we get away with some stuff during the run

This commentary is even more impressive than the strats in the speedrun. It requires some talent for presentation to be able to explain everything in such detail and precision as to be completely understood by someone with no prior knowledge of the game's speedrun, but doing it in near-realtime is absolutely remarkable. There's a lot of "The history of the speedrun" KZbinrs out there these days, but I'd love to see more people approach videos in this format, effectively annotating an entire near-perfect run of the game. It's very compelling viewing.

[@nil_shawn6107]

Awesome to see you making content again!!! Also, when we re-spawn at the Sandy hospital, there's a Rebel in view to the west. Is this vehicle too far away to run to? If so, would its differing handling line make up for any time losses as we do the two remaining jumps in the area?

[@FriendlyBaron]

good question! so, theres a channel where i send my videos before release, not just to patreons, but also to a couple of gtav's top runners for review to ensure accuracy. alexhonix brought to my attention in there a runner, ortinet, had a sanchez motorcycle spawn in there and took it, and it saved them about 21 seconds over a cab (waiting + driving). i want to do some extra testing with this (part of why in the end of the video i talk about making a bonus video for stunt jumps) as the motorcycle is definitely worth it, and i think from very old testing, something like a rebel is the /best/ vehicle that spawns there (usually its a voodoo or bus which are toooo slow), but the rebel is about the same as a taxi, however, since you don't practice with a rebel often, it changes your muscle memory and makes jumping harder, so not really worth it.

These stupid boxes your vehicle has to land in to complete each jump explains a lot, I had a feeling it must have worked like that, though some of those boxes are also way bigger than you'd think for how often I failed a jump for seemingly no reason. Some of these jumps felt like such BS. Oddly I got that lighthouse jump on my first try, and that's considered one of the harder, if not hardest ones? I had the hardest times with the jumps at the docks/pier.

[@Eggyteevee]

this speedrun is surgeon-like precise which is amazing when you see someone getting the WR

[@bojugai9174]

tbh, I myself tried GTA V stunt jumps before for 100%, that single light house one only took me already more than one hour, and after around 1 hour I was still failing so I just gave it up since I only need 25 of them to get 100%. This is amazing.

[@FriendlyBaron]

the 25/50 needed for "100%" still annoys me to this day

[@bojugai9174]

@@FriendlyBaron Well, you know, newer games are more forgiving. It seems that 100% is defined to be 'you tried this feature enough' but not 'really completed'. Similar as stranger and freak missions with only Franklin's required. Back in the day for GTA III though, for all those Luigi/Joey/Kenji/Asuka missions, if you missed then they are missed, no 100% for you and you have to start over.

please make a video compiling all of the fastest/risky runs so we can enjoy few hours of just jaw dropping content like jumping over alamo sea in the paleto bank scout mission so in other words worlds fastest spliced run

[@FriendlyBaron]

There is a community channel on the GTAV Speedrun discord that tracks the fastest a mission has ever been done. they don't always include the alamo style jump though, or every strat. it'd be a HUGE project to combine them all, let alone at a consistent visual quality and with points to actually line up. Basically, it's not a "no" but, its also a long off, only "maybe" project

The thumbnail into playing video was very smooth.
