You have to be on version 2.3 to do the door clip (current patch is 2.10). I'd recommend joining this discord server https://discord.gg/dT5jfMvx and going into the #resources channel. There it has all the instructions you need on how to downpatch. And then if you want to be able to play multiplayer on 2.3 you must first find the install location of ETB (latest patch) through steam. Once you have done that simply drag your version 2.3 files inside of that folder and click replace. If you have any questions make sure to ask them in the discord server I listed above.

Those glitches are disallowed in any% because of a poll that was held inside the discord server. The point of NG+ being added was to have a category where you can use those glitches. Afaik the category is not being created off of your suggestion.

NG+ isnt about playing on an already beaten save. Its about playing on a new save where previous saves youve played on give you an advantage. For example if you have a save in habitable zone and you press "quit game" during the loadzone sequence back into level 0 through the vent, then when you open up a new save you spawn all the way at the end of level 0. This is because the mainsave file saved the spawn data of that previous save and puts it into effect during your new save. You can use this glitch to skip Level 0, Abandoned Office, and Lights Out (on 2.9). Therefore the category will allow you to have multiple game versions/saves open so you can basically teleport through the map to save minutes. The whole point is to see how fast a new game (+advantages from previous saves) can be beaten.

Turning shadows to low helps you see better in the dark. There is currently no brightness setting in game but you can change the brightness of your monitor.
