Aside from obvious route things, I can't seem to find any explanation to many of the "what" moments of vegeto's current wr run ( ). I feel like the duping and replay glitches need to be explained somewhere in here, if anyone is up for it. I want to get back into any% after only learning portland about a year ago.
Any takers?
(To make replays - F2 F3 F1 F2. The first F2 isn't necessary for every replay after the first)
(1:50) Luigi's Girls - Hospital Tutorial Replay setup (2:35) Don't Spank Ma Bitch Up - Taking a Police Car because it's faster. Can be used later. (4:10) After Don't Spank Ma Bitch Up - Use Hospital Tutorial Replay after getting in the car.
The Hospital Tutorial Replay is used to prevent despawning of emergency vehicles after the Blow Fish deathwarp, which ends up being faster and gives you more chance at unlocked vehicles. Using this replay before Claude gets in the car fully can crash the game.
(5:40) Mike Lips Last Lunch - Shotgun Rampage Replay setup
(8:40) Van Heist - Holding Caps Lock during the entire mission for consistent rampage start.
(9:40) After Van Heist - If you have a police car/taxi from Don't Spank Ma Bitch Up, you can use it for consistent rampage start. Since Vegeto is doing Caps Lock strats he didn't go for it
(9:55) - After Van Heist - Rampage start Vigilante by playing the replay and letting Caps Lock go. Start Cipriani's Chaffeur
(10:20) - Cipriani's Chaffeur - Rocket Launcher Rampage Replay setup
(11:45) - Taking Out the Laundry Dupe&Fail. Explanation copied from the testing thread: "The current theory for how it works is this: failing the mission unloads one instance of the mission, and the removal of the things in that instance of the mission passes the other instance of the mission. For example failing 3 vans removes the vans from one of the missions, and because the game detects that the vans have been 'removed' the second instance of the mission passes it for you. That's why it works with the missions it has worked for. "
(12:10) - After Taking Out the Laundry - Enjoy your cop car RNG
(16:40) - Rampage start Chaperone. Can use Caps Lock strats during Salvatore Called a Meeting if you want, it apparently only costs 5 seconds
(17:55) - Chaperone - Rocket Launcher Rampage Replay setup
(18:20) - Chaperone - Use the replay you just made. If your time is too low, getting in the marker quicker would waste time because of the cutscene, so it's worth waiting until it gets low enough to start the rampage before the cutscene
(20:40) Cutting the Grass - Start AK-47 Rampage. If you're there too soon, you can save a replay and start it while driving the taxi. You can also wait before starting the mission for the timer to lower enough for the replay to not be necessary. Do what you like the most.
(21:15) Cutting the Grass - M16 Rampage Replay setup. Make sure the drive during this mission is clean, you don't get a lot of room for error.
(22:50) - Triads and Tribulations Dupe&Fail
(26:35) - Vegeto takes the grenades from Taking Out the Laundry here. If you feel you're not going to make the Portland cycle if you do, get them at ammunation later instead.
(28:40) - Rampage start Last Requests. Use the emergency vehicle you got after Blow Fish deathwarp. If you didn't get any, you can rampage start normally, or take the fixed taxi spawn for consistency (which is slower)
(31:30) - Sayonara Salvatore - Rocket Launcher Rampage Replay setup
(32:00) - Sayonara Salvatore - Start the Rocket Launcher Rampage. xx:50 is the safest time you should pick it up, Vegeto used xx:37 which is very tight. Hurt yourself for faster deathwarp
(34:00) - Under Surveillance Dupe&Fail
(34:20) - Rampage Start Paramedic. Paparazzi Purge with rockets. If you miss the shot, you can try again
All the replay based glitches after this were already on the old route or are very simple (Cop Bribe Replay)
