Hi. I'm a new speedrunner who wants to start speedrunning Portal 2. In order to learn about Cinematics, I watched the beginning of the top 1 speedrun and noticed that the entire intro scene is missing. What is the allowed way to do that?

Also, another question: Is the autosplitter by NeKz good and when does it split?

Thanks in advance!

I don't remember if you need to download vault save which is in the resources when you have SAR, but there is a playlist with guides for setup and every map in singleplayer.
