Let the heist begin!

Introduction

See 10404S (TASVideos submission) for general game details.

This movie attacks the game's second chapter: Liberty City II: Heist Almighty. To reach it without needing to run the previous chapter's movie as verification movie, I use the 'itsgallus' cheat code, whose only effect is to unlock all chapters. Then I change the name to 'eien86'.

The goal of this movie is to achieve 100%, as specified in the RTA rules. That involves: finishing all 13 missions, getting all 7 secrets, and exiting the city. The secrets are achieved by picking up "Kill Frenzy" boxes, which don't need to be completed to count.

I based my route on Tarakan3000's RTA WR of the same category. In this case too, I had to alter the order of missions due to the train's frame rule.

Comparison Movie

Here's a comparison video between this run and the current RTA WR. The routes differ as soon as the introductory mission finishes, but then they converge again for the 'Penetrator' car movie.

Acknowledgements

I'd like to thank the entire GTA speedrunning community who helped and encouraged me while making this movie. Especially Tarakan4000 who engineered the current route, Tezur0, and Molotok who kept giving me advice on certain parts of the game.
