yeah man save loading is allowed in RTA. reason he "he is doing it perfect without stuttering and being reset" is he doesn't load a save/just got the trick that time. if you want to run no save/loading run single segment or SS for short, no save loading/deaths allowed.

hi, could you please class HL: Echoes (https://www.speedrun.com/hlech) as a modification of HL1? https://www.speedrun.com/hl1

really it'd be more trouble than it's worth. It is definitely possible, but it's a bitch to do. i'm also guessing the mods have some demo tools that they use to determine whether it's legit or not, similar to how HL1 is verified.

ah thanks, thought it was in the request form but just didn't see it, thank you.
