Quake Speedruns On SDA
I get the idea that quite a few Quake mappers love to watch speedruns on their own maps, and us speedrunners have always liked new (and old) maps to speedrun, and we've all been fairly good at supporting both communities, but I also get the idea that most mappers aren't really checking for news at SDA, at least not very often. Maybe I'm just completely wrong here, but I was thinking it was a good initiative to put a post here whenever we did an update. Just listing the map name, the mapper, and the demos without all the text that usually goes into an update on SDA. If one wants to read the entire update, one can go to the news page on SDA:

http://speeddemosarchive.com/quake/

Also, a quick explanation regarding the use of "demo tags" (for those that aren't into the SDA-termology) like ER, NH, EH2, etc etc.

- ER is short for "Easy Run", meaning a pure run through any given map on skill 0 (easy) without having to kill any monsters or find any secrets.

- NH is short for "Nightmare 100%", meaning a run through any given map on skill 3 (nightmare) getting ALL kills and finding ALL secrets.

- EH2 is short for "Easy 100% 2 player", meaning a cooperative run with 2 players through any given map on skill 0 getting ALL kills and finding ALL secrets.

I think you get the picture...

Let's do a quick roundup of the latest update on SDA (April 2nd, 2009):

the rdsc2 run is really cool with the 3 player team.
i think the best part is in that silver/grey metal map where the one guy lobs 3 grenades for (seemingly) no reason, and it's all in preparation for the other two who come in just as they go off for grenade jumps. 
Heh, I See 
That's cheap indeed.
The 10s runs are nice, tough. And the 34s one is very good - probably quite annoying to run this map with all the sticky bits. 
Rdsc2? 
Maybe my brain's just not working, but what is rdsc2??

RDSC2 - Runner's Delight At SpeedCon 2

This project was conceived at SpeedCon3, the speed-runner's meeting which took place from July 30th to June 5th, 2006 in Copenhagen, Denmark. In this run, three players go through the Runner's Delight mission pack in cooperative mode, finishing the levels as fast as possible on Easy skill. As opposed to the old RDSC run, we used unrestricted bunnies in this project. 
Thanks! 
Sounds like fun viewing; I'll definitely have a look. Here's the link for anyone else who's interested:

New Maps + New Demos 
Sorry to bump this old thread, but I just wanted to mention that activity on SDA has picked up again lately, and we've had a new batch of demos and new maps (most of which has been posted here on func). We also recently added the DMC2 (Deathmatch Classics Vol. 2) which had been collection dust for nearly 7 years before Negke picked up the ante and readied it for release.

http://speeddemosarchive.com/quake

Negke: You might want to check out those 'the cheap way' runs on mappi/mappi2 :-) 
Nice 
Those are some cheap runs indeed. How's that even possible - some quirk in the QDQ progs? Because the changelevel triggers in the options room are all set to restart immediately without stopping at the intermission screen.

Impressive runs in this update. As usual. Some lazy tablefillers in the mappis, too - but fun to watch nevertheless. The run with the voreball jump was ace. 
New QdQ Releases 
This is a heads-up just to let everybody know that SDA and QdQ, against all odds, have been updated. The updates are about two "new" QdQ releases which are finally available for download in dem/pak format.

Quake done Quickest - http://speeddemosarchive.com/quake/qdq/movies/qdqst.html

Quake done 100% Quickest - http://speeddemosarchive.com/quake/qdq/movies/qd100qst.html

I'll also take the opportunity to mention my own project which was recently released, an easy run through the "Blue Hell" episode.
