How to do an IL run

1. Download the IL saves found in resources or make a save before the level transition into the level you want to make an IL run by typing in console ‘save <name>’ or by using your quick save key. Note: This save must follow the IL guidelines.
2. Do speedrun_start
3. Reload the save any time that you want to retry.
4. Once you are done or have a good run, make sure you go through the entire level transition into the next level (crosshairs disappear for e02). 
5. Do speedrun_stop
6. Time your demo using PortalDemoTimer which comes with Source Unpack (can also be found on the resources section of speedrun.com)	
7. To submit the demo, upload it to any file sharing website (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) and make sure file sharing is open to anyone with the link.
8. Put the link to the demo in the description of your submitted run.
