California, USASeams in this game are much more broken than any other version.
After some testing on many different levels (still at it), I've found MANY places where you can randomly get stuck in a seam and launch out of it. I haven't found any that are useful yet, but maybe soon.
- The seam jumps in "Nutz and Boltz" are especially interesting. The one used on the PC version works, and even sends you up (a bit slower than PC), but once you jump out, collision and character movement breaks. The opposite side of the platforms seam scale (which doesn't work on PC at ALL), works on N64, but with the same effect. (Neither of these work on Playstation)
On that level there are 2 more broken seams to the left and right (see video, I use the right), which works with specific timed inputs.
- The Seam Jump in "Warehouse Run" to get over the crates also works, and is significantly easier than all other ports
- The Seam Jump in "Toy Rampage" to skip a large encounter also works, and again is significantly easier than all other ports.
No other Seam Jumps or tricks have been found yet, will update this thread if I find anything else :)

Happy running! ^-^
New tricks in the PC and PS1 ports have been found! Making this a thread instead of a news post as it's just glitch finding, not anything majorly important. Check out the videos below to see level looping and seam launching! :D

On Steam: Go to Doom + Doom II - Cog wheel (settings) - Properties - Betas - and there will be a little drop down button you press that shows the 2019 re release (unity) just click it, then your game will update and boom you've reverted back to Unity!
I can't seem to message anyone via their profile. Click profile name - Click messages - and then it's just blank... Happening with everyone I try to message.
Will this be a thing? I found a good amount of skips, a lot being kinda useless due to this being discovered. Not that that's the reason why I want it, but I'd rather run the game NOT using that trick, as it's not that fun having the camera in the air not being able to see where I'm going.
Hey, so I'm curious on a couple of things.
- Level 1 IL This one is especially confusing. So timing ends on fade to black. In the run, there are two. One leaving the house, one getting on the roof. On the first fade, the timer on screen is 46 seconds. I'm assuming after retime, it was 44, but is...that where the IL ends? And then the next IL on the list is hospital? It seems to cut out the next part of the house entirely. I think the timing should end exactly where the current records run ends it on, which is on top of the house. I haven't looked deeper into the board, when I do I might or might not have more questions.
Thoughts?
So I'm unsure if anyone here knows about this, I didn't see it in the forum here (unless I completely missed it) but I found a program called Cursor Lock that works really well with Manhunt, since it has an issue with the mouse going off screen.
Setting up a separate shortcut with Manhunt with cursor lock active will solve that issue, and it's awesome as hell.
Here's the link to cursor lock if anyone wants to use it - http://www.snakebytestudios.com/projects/apps/cursor-lock/
Just simply install, tick the 2 boxes that say "Open" and "Lock" program, select the Manhunt exe in it's directory, click create shortcut and done.
1 Issue I have noticed though is sometimes cursor lock doesn't activate upon launching the exe, but exiting and re launching usually fixes it for me.
Hopefully this helps you guys! :D It helped me ALOT.
I clicked on the github link and it takes me to it, but I see no download link or anything? Unless I'm completely missing it. I'm not very familiar with github.
Am unsure if moderators get notifications for comments or not, (I haven't recieved any yet) but I think it might be a good idea to at least have a toggle for it so we have the option? This new comments thing is extremely untrustworthy considering how many dumb people exist in the world looking to abuse it. If we moderators have a toggle for comment notifications, it can help deter idiots trolling on older runs where we might not notice it happening since they are rarely looked at.
Thoughts?
Hey guys! We now have an official Discord server dedicated to all Xelo Games titles speedrunning, including EFN! Feel free to join via the link below.
If you guys do runs of maps that don't have a results screen (Sigil map 9, NRFTL map 8, etc.) we found a small solution to prevent your run from needing a retime. If you open the map as you exit the map, it shows the final time when the screen melt happens. We are asking everyone if you are capable of doing so when doing those maps as IL's, end the level with your map open. It's not a requirement, as obviously doing that on say Sigil map 8 might be a bit hard to do since you focus on that jump more than anything. If you are unable to do this, it will result in your run just being retimed. Helps us if you show the map. Not required. Thanks for reading :)
If you are unsure of what I'm even talking about, refer to this run here: https://www.speedrun.com/doom_unity_ce/run/mkgw0p3y
There is nothing wrong with the download link itself, it's what is hidden in the games files that you need to be worried about.
Having them on your PC is fine. Installing the game however will install an anti-piracy protection program called Starforce silently on your PC that does not work properly. When you install the game, it will ask you to reboot. When you do, your PC will fail to boot windows because of the Starforce drivers.
Here is what windows says the issue is in the log file in system 32: Boot critical file c:\windows\system32\drivers\sfsync02.sys is corrupt.
Repair action: File repair Result: Failed. Error code = 0x57 Time taken = 1359 ms
Repair action: System files integrity check and repair Result: Failed. Error code = 0x57 Time taken = 938 ms
More info on it here: http://library.monx007.com/computer/starforce/1
I used System Restore to fix my PC. Safe mode does not work, as the sfc driver is designed to boot even in safe mode. It will kick you back to the auto repair screen, and tell you Windows can't fix it. At least that is what happened to me and one other person. Keep in mind, if you do not have some kind of backup for your stuff, you are pretty much screwed in terms of keeping your files. (unless you know something I don't, which is very likely lol)
You can also use the Windows media creation tool which can be found here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
You will need an external storage device with a min. of 8 gigs to install windows 10 on to reinstall on your PC if necessary. Doing it from the computer might not work. Didn't for me.
I know I posted this partially on an existing thread, but I feel like this needs to be it's own forum post, that way if someone happens to download it, and don't know what the fuck is happening, at least this is here to provide SOME kind of solution, or at least point someone in the right direction of one. I wasn't gonna post any of this because I thought I might have done something wrong, or maybe just my own bad luck, but some people in my Discord tested it out as well, and they had it happen to them as well. Same issues.
TLDR; Do NOT download game from resources, will make pc go brr. If it doesn't happen to you, your pc got lucky to live another day. I, and my newly destroyed PC envy you.
Not sure if it's the ads or what, but holy crap the site runs significantly worse than it ever did. Slow as hell and am constantly having to reload the page just to get it to load.

found an old run of mine I want to submit but I had the glitched cannon. Not sure if that is allowed for IL's, or if it falls under cheats or no cheats. If someone could clarify for me that would be appreciated
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but google is giving me absolutely no useful answers, and the one and only guide I found on YouTube seems to be very outdated.
So I download a 100% save game file from online so I can practice stuff and not have to deal with playing through the game to unlock shit, but I'm having an issue.
I put the folders in the correct place, but for some reason it does not show up in game.
This kind of stuff isn't my strong point but I'm about 99% sure I'm doing nothing wrong, and it isn't working for no apparent reason.
If someone could help me I would appreciate it. The directions told me to just download the save, and put it in my savegames folder. Did that and still nothing in game.
