Jedi Knight Speedrun is complete

that's correct. From the very beginning room, jump up on the ledge at the far end on the left side. Enter the vent, and you can run through the entire level without much incident, and in mabye about two minutes.

Wrong, he tried some of the levels multiple times. :p

You can tell because you can see "Press FIRE to restart the level" at the top of the screen when some levels start.

Yeah, that was me :D

Anyways, awesome job on the speed run. Some of those big jumps really made me nervous, especially on level 4.

Okay, I just redid level 15, it's 48 seconds rather than 56 seconds:

This way gets a star though, so it doesn't fit with the rest of the run. The next person to do a speedrun will have to be sure to do it.

strafe + forward seems to make you go faster in a number of games I have played.

I always did that in Goldeneye.
That painting was a gift, Todd. I'm taking it with me.

Finally, a JK speed run! And you know what? This is insane! I mean, I knew Kyle could move fast, but it never occurred to me to do all the things you've done. Bravo.

Have you considered running MotS? =)

Would it be possible to omit the double usage of the elevator on the first level where you have to go up a second time after getting the secret? Would you still have enough stars for the force powers?
2004-10-01, 10:34 PM #51
That's one of the things that is possible to change about the run. I thought an extra star would be useful, getting higher force speed and jump earlier along with the use at level 4. It's possible doing without it or going for the level 2 or 3 secrets would be a better idea.

As for MotS, I don't own it. :/

That was 1337 h4x0r.

Amazing, and quite entertaining!

It's funny that I was actually feeling like playing the good ole' JK SP again around this time. Now I got to see the whole game in 30 minutes.
2004-10-02, 12:49 PM #53
Hebedee, I'm almost positive his run was faster because of it. He had an extra star in run for level 4! LEVEL 4! The one that's like 150 miles long.

Congratulations....

But now you need to go outside.
2004-10-03, 12:40 PM #56
Random, did you think of finishing of the series? I know you stated that you didn't have MotS, but you could probably finish Jedi Outcast in 5 min. (yup, it's that short).

I can't download it, I get cannot connect to server errors.

I would link you, but LucasArts' Company Store doesn't sell it anymore... .'/

2004-10-03, 1:34 PM #58
Okay the link should be fixed now.

And there's already a speedrun of Jedi Outcast:
http://www.planetquake.com/sda/other/JediKnight2.html

That person is working on Jedi Academy now. It's a lot slower than Jedi Knight, though because force speed slows the environment down instead of speeding you up, plus the base run speed is much slower.
2004-10-03, 1:36 PM #59
Cool... it's in alot of fragments though.
2004-10-03, 1:42 PM #60
Well, the dl is fairly large, so I'll just take your word for it, I'm going to try and beat that now.

Excellent!

You should submit it to SDA when you're finished.

And yes, it's in a lot of fragments. However Fraps would simply stop recording at the end of every level, so there's no way I could have recorded a single segment run.

Installed JK for the first time in months, and I beat it in 00:33.26
2004-10-03, 9:43 PM #63
Nice. Record it and send it in.

Good lord... after all that time without practice... I suppose JK is like riding a bicycle you never forget.

I beat JK in 0:0:10... I love the level warp code. :)

i'm sure one of us could loan you a copy of MotS if you wanted to try it.
