Hi there, I'm pretty new to the speedrunning scene, so I just wanted some clarification before I got started with my attempts. What constitutes auto-sr50?
For instance, if I'm using ZDoom, does that just mean having auto-run on, or is there more to it than that?
Automated sr-50 is something completely different, auto-run is, afaik, allowed.
Basically, there are two different types of strafing in doom:
Strafe-40: Which is simply holding forward + a strafe key while running (28% faster than normal running) and Strafe-50: Which requires holding a strafe-on key, forward, a strafe key and a turn key. (41% faster than normal running)
The automation of the latter is only legal in Tool-Assisted Speedruns, otherwise it is disallowed.
I'm pretty sure ZDoom does not have Strafe-50 automation, so you have nothing to worry about. If you use a source port like PrBoom, you will need to disable that in the options.
Welcome to the speedrunning community :)
Hey everyone so I'm gonna make this short because I have to go to work shortly.
I was made a moderator for the Classic Doom's here on SRC, and there's going to be changes.
- All IL's/Episode run categories are going to be removed
This is because DSDA exists. There's no logical reason for I
