Version differences (new categorie?)

Hi

gratz for 2nd place and cool that you investigated more into this. I checked my run and it takes round about 34s to pass the hallways.

About your run, overall a good one and you used one trick I missed...until today :) I am sure you are aware where you lost the most time, so a high 25 should be possible. But there where also a lot of minor mistakes which also cost some seconds (skips, movement etc.)

So you are the only person in the universe who run the VGA and the EGA version of Loom - any thoughts?

Edit: I compared both runs and I start with almost 10s off (copy protection) I am catching up on you in the hallways and getting in front in the woods.

I have a new EGA run... stay tuned...

Wow under 24!

Will check it in the evening when I am back from work.

Best would be to reject it, so I can still own the 1st place ;)

You can compare it to your amiga run to see if it moves too fast, but the corridor test says that dos box cycles shouldn't make a difference.

Alright I did watch it :)

Very well done, almost flawless. As you mentioned in the video it did not look to be that fast at the dragon, but ist was...so cool. Really appriciate the work you put into this.

At the weekend I will strike back, I still see a chance to beat you. I have to get right of my load times, that will save some time, also you did a couple of minor mistakes so there is still room for improvment. Nice to see copy protection on Dos (if we start the timer at the introscreen we also would save time. So in the end we start the timer the same time as in VGA if you will - just wanted to mention it) And I have some special tricks saved for the moment somebody took away my WR...be prepared ;) So high 23 is possible...I am sure - at least for you.

*We should make another thread for this

**I have an idea for another kind of category...follow me into my ohter thread about all the drafts :)

Thanks for almost mentioning my name in the video cheers
