Later on, though, I find some skips that would not be possible on lower difficulties. In general, there are more enemies I have to counter, both when it comes to their annoyingly blocking my path and their attempts at getting rid of me. in 5th level where destroying the ATSTs is slower on Jedi Master, or the hangar battle in ns_starpad.

It would give a solid improvement and overall update considering the game's age and the now outdated speedrun.Īt first, I was worried that running the game on its hardest difficulty would slow me down considerably. In 2013, more than seven years after LLCoolDave's run and more than ten years after the game's release, I found this apt. I thought that not only would I do a very fast speedrun I'd also like to challenge myself further, which the many extra enemies, the reduced maximum hp and the enemies' extra durability and damage ensured. I decided to do my run on the hardest skill level, Jedi Master.

Last but not least, thanks to LucasArts and Raven Software for creating the best pc game I've ever played. Thanks also to IsraeliRD for timing the run. Saratura also gets credit for showing a nice 'laser skip' in kejim_base which was somewhat easy on Padawan skill and close to impossible on Jedi Master.

Thanks to gammadragon for considering this route at first, and thanks to Saratura for succeeding in using the route successfully, showing that the jump was indeed possible. I modified this nice finding a bit by executing the jump without jumping on top of the rodian, making it a more feasible and fast route. In particular, his finding is very useful in ns_starpad – see comments on this level for details on the method.įurthermore, in the level ns_streets, I use a very fast route of getting to the garbage collector, and this route is inspired by videos by gammadragon and Saratura in which they show that it's possible to jump directly to the garbage collector by jumping on top of a rodian guy. Credits also go to honorableJay for discovering a bizarre way of skipping some conversations with NPCs in the game. He did however find an incredible trick in yavin_trials which I've used in this run and is described later. Furthermore, I saw on the forums that LLCoolDave since his speedrun from 2005 had made attempts at finishing a new run but never finished. I saw fit to incorporate these findings of his in my own run, with some modifications where appropriate. Specifically, credits go to LLCoolDave for a rough draft of a good speedrun – his speedrun from 2005, that is, which includes 'the corner jump' in ns_streets, the shortcut to Lando in ns_hideout, 'the climb' in cairn_bay, 'the laser skip' in cairn_reactor, and finally the concept of getting onto the Doomgiver in cairn_dock1 much earlier in the level than you're supposed to. That said, I didn't invent everything in this speedrun myself – that's far from the case: The findings were numerous, and as I kept looking I found even more ways to improve both general movements and level routes.

I started playing through levels to see if there were any more possible shortcuts/tricks that were not included in LLCoolDave's run, and I practised strafe jumping which was different from strafe jumping in the multi-player game (actually, I think bunnyhopping is a more accurate term for the speed jumping done in single-player, since it isn't technically pure strafing). I enthusiastically watched LLCoolDave's run and was at one time amazed by all of his findings – including the canyon jump that I too had tried – but at the same time I found that his movements were slower than what was possible, and that he spent excessive time on getting weapons and other dispensable stuff. I wondered if a run of JK2 had been made, and to my excitement a search quickly led to LLCoolDave's Padawan run on SDA from 2005. I started becoming curious about how fast this game could be completed, and I suddenly came to think of some of the impressive speedruns I had seen previously, especially runs of Half-Life. The first one I found was the canyon jump in kejim_post which shortened the level by a huge factor. I believe it was in April 2012 that I first started looking for shortcuts and tricks for completing the levels faster. Although I pretty much stopped playing single-player after I completed it the first few times and then switched to the very brilliant and addictive multi-player game, I revisited the single-player version again in recent time – this time as a quite experienced strafe jumper and Jedi slayer thanks to extensive multi-player adventures. I've loved this game ever since its release in 2002, both the single-player and the multi-player versions.
