Hello everyone!

I'll do a 24h event stream on November 3rd 2018 for the Extra Life marathon. I'll attempt to beat the actual Dune (1992) Any% WR with a long play of the CD version (MS-DOS) in DOSBox.

I'll not skip the cinematics nor the dialog while aiming sub 24h 22m 30s to submit after the marathon. I'll then practice my PB with the regular non-CD version (still in DOSBox) and submit and fast run in 2019.

Thank you for your attention!

I looked at the videos for the current WR for Dune. There is in fact a small mistake with the time. The in-game time for the WR is 24days 22h30min. The "real world" time is something about 3h15, since it's done with 13 videos about 15min each. It's really an impressive time.
I don't know if it's possible to correct the time.

Last time I played Dune, it was the CD version, I didn't skip any cinematics or dialogue, had to load my save a couple of times, and I finished in about 11 hours (and about 70days in-game). So, if you intend to do a 24h marathon, I sugest you also choose another game for the rest of the time. Dune is just a wonderful choice, I love it 🙂

I wanted to try a little Dune speedrun, I just planned to train, but in the end I finished the game in 3h06min or so, and 44days6h in-game time.
It was with the floppy version (with DOS-box), which is faster than the CD-ROM version.
I made a couple of mistakes, so this time is definitely beatable.

Thank you for your kind reply Lady Prismillon. Your time makes this run very promising and more interesting for me to try it. I'll still wait for my 24h stream as I have already many games to try on my plate.

Au plaisir! 😉
