one full 99lap SL-session/flash/moaFWD;
29.97PL-10SS-9SP-4BR-TRIAKIS/HD
was an ok-lap, but i missed the last SP,
so i messed up the double-BR into finish :(

Where on earth did you get 4BRs from JF? :eek

BoostBR over the line perhaps? Must investigate :banzai

Edit: 29.77 - 8 Pads - 2BRs - Fury

@ yeldar:

maybe my previous post is a bit confusing?!
i did the double BR into finish, but it was the slowest version of it,
cause of the missed SP.

1.BR: after 1st mag-strip in the 180-turn-tunnel (maybe it's faster to skip this 1?)

2.BR: turbo after 1st BR, cut left corner, BR

3.+4.BR: double BR into finish


i tried the other turbo-spot in the last 20laps of the session,
to "investigate" if it's faster, but no success :(
but i found "something" by accident. a maybe new BR!
turbo after the S-corner, fly over the 2nd mag-strip,
do BR and land it on the mag-strip-wall (no mag-effect),
bounce back on track do BR :)

yeldar2097
10th August 2010, 11:35 PM
Ahh I though it might be the one after the Mag-loop.

Anyway: 29.56 - 8 Pads - 3BRs - Fury

I have a dream of 7 BR heaven on Moa
- BoostBR into the lap
- BR into tunnel after mag-lop
- Shortcut BoostBR
- Land on wall for another BR
- 3x BR on last corner

Possible? Maybe not, but it would be awesome :rock

JFthebestJan
10th August 2010, 11:48 PM
triple BR? last corner? how? i've no idea.

btw. turbo-BR into lap can be doubled, so 8BR- maybe 9BR-lap is possible :D
i have to do a few sessions with my beloved piranha

31.47 all pads and one piraphac style turbo br to finish

can someone help me please...

when i do the the turbo br pirphac style over the start line it always seems slower than a turbo start and i never hit anything so what am i doing wrong.

i can also do the turbo br off of the pad out the tunnel but again it slows me down.

why am i so slow compared to everyone else..

Dark_Phantom_89
11th August 2010, 10:29 PM
Jasmin - I use a normal boost at the start and just take the corner sharply.

As for the boost BR in the tunnel, I turn left straight after hitting the pad, put the ships nose up and boost.

There's an extra BR after the shorcutBR that you can do as well (if you're :dizzy like Leungbok :D). Couldn't find Leung's vid of it but I'm sure there's one somewhere.

i found that if i stop accelerating as i do the BR over the line then use the goteki thrust and boost at the same time i get a much better start. although seeing as everyones much faster you probably already did this.:paperbag

Final entry for this week:

24.76, 4BR (is the 2nd magstrip BR even possible with goteki??), 7SP, Fury

Had a much much better lap going, where I'd done everything right, but then I panicked and bounced off the track after landing the shortcut. This is where I'd use an emoticon, but I can't find one that adequately evokes my level of rage.

30:33 - 8 SP, 2BR, Fury - not my favourite track.

I know one of the BR is the penultimate corner - if you approach from the left after the long straight and then turn sharply into it, you can get enough lift for a BR.

lol, i can't wait too
but the real problem is not the camcorder, it's my TV-resolution (576i)!
if i film my TV, and watch the recorded stuff afterwards, i always got a serious headache, caused by the "flickering" :(
and i don't want to record and show flickering, so the solution 4 me is 2 buy a 1080p-TV without inputlag.
my father has a philips 42"1080p LCD, but inputlag is super duper to much. i can't play with inputlag! im no jedi.

Leungbok I think used to have a CRT which he made heaps of videos on. I can still remember that weird black bar constantly getting in the way of awesome lap times.... but they were usually such good lap times, it didn't matter (too much)! You'd easily be able to provide some must-watch vids despite a lack of screen quality, too :)

Chet_BG
6th September 2010, 04:25 PM
My TV has input lag, too. 32"1080p Philips. It's very minimal, but in some games it bothers me a lot. I think I've never had any major difficulties playing WipEout, but maybe that's why I input left, right when I'm still on the ground and the last left when I'm in the air to perform a barrel roll XD



i play on a samsung 1080 how can i tell i have input lag.playing on this tv since day one i cant tell.


The best way is to play maybe Rock Band or something like that. Fighting games are also very difficult to play and you can see easily if you have an input lag. Or just play a game 15 mins with HDMI and then 15 mins with SCART cable. The SCART cable has no lag, only HDMI's do (not sure if it's the TV or the cable...) so if you see a difference between the action and the input on the HDMI, you have lag ;)

JFthebestJan
6th September 2010, 04:27 PM
@ jasmin-jade
i can't tell u anything other than compare it with a CRT-TV.
on my CRT-TV i have (almost) 0 inputlag, that means direct control!
makes BR alot easier as on the philips HDTV with it's enormous inputlag.

tbo, i can't do the doubleBR after 1st corner on anulpha when playing on my fathers philips HDTV, lol

Week 51 has come to a close – congratulations to JFthebestJan not only for winning, but for setting a new WR too! A big thanks to all who participated, your names will added to the Hall of Fame Thread.

This week marks the 1 year anniversary of the Speed Lap Challenge, and it seems to have flown by. I never thought it would really take off, so seeing it still going after a year is amazing and it’s all thanks to you guys - give yourselves a pat on the back! :nod

Anyway, I said that I’d be doing something a little different this week to mark the 1 year anniversary. We all love the WipEout series, especially the very first on the PS1 which kicked it all off and started up our love for the game.

So for this week, we’re going to go back to the roots of WipEout with the 4 ships that started it all:

FEISAR from the European Union

AG-Systems from Japan

Auricom from the US

Qirex from Russia

As we all know, each track is based in a particular location, so let’s match up the ships to their respective areas:

FEISAR – Moa Therma (based in Sicily, EU)

AG-Systems – Metropia (based in Tokyo, Japan)

Auricom – Tech De Ra (based in Nevada, US)

Qirex – Ubermall (not sure where it’s based, but it has a lot of Qirex sponsorship!)

And of cause, we all remember the two speed classes from the first game – Venom and Rapier :nod

Now that we’ve matched up the ships to the tracks which most resemble their origins, I present this weeks challenge – not 1, but 4 speed lap challenges, each based on a ship and their location!

SPEED LAP/MOA THERMA (FORWARD)/RAPIER/FEISAR

SPEED LAP/METROPIA (FORWARD)/RAPIER/AG-SYSTEMS

SPEED LAP/TECH DE RA (FORWARD)/RAPIER/AURICOM

SPEED LAP/UBERMALL (FORWARD)/RAPIER/QIREX

Everyone is entitled to attempt any number of these challenges (it could be 1 or all 4 of them.) Yes, it’s something a little different this week having 4 challenges instead of 1, but I liked Challenger’s idea so much that I decided to go for it.

Anyway, enough from me now, I’ve rambled on for ages and nobody likes to read a wall of text. Good luck everyone – if you have any questions or are confused by anything, let me know and I’ll do my best to explain.

I thought this challenge was HD craft only at first... just had a quickie with the Fury craft:

Moa: 27.72, 8 SPs, 1 BR, Feisar Fury
Metropia: 24.14, 9 SPs, 1 BR, AG-S Fury
Ubermall: 24.03, 8 SPs, 3 BRs, Qirex Fury
Tech De Ra: 25.55, 8 SPs, 1 BR, Auricom Fury.

I don't know if TDR is my favourite course of the four, but I felt most comfortable in the Auri. o.O

uber 23.00 2br quirex f.....standard

@question to challenger.....how did u do 3 br on uber..i did the sideshift one at first bend and the turbo br throught he arch..what ones did you do..many thx..:)

i really liked Qirex, maybe i'll test this ship more...:)

Aeroracer
10th September 2010, 11:03 PM
well done dreamy on those times ..nice..

i liked the quirex ship the most too as its fresh and new to me..
didnt like the auricom as i i think its a heap of oversized junk
fiesar was way to underpowered steers nice but then so do most other ships once you get the timing right
ags systems well its the basic ship most can use this so its nothing new..but its does deliver the good pretty well.:nod

Gave each of the challenges a few laps this morning -

Moa: 26.31, 2 BR's, 9 sp's, fury feisar
Metro: 22.66, 1 BR, 10 sp's, fury AG-S
Uber: 22.44, 6 BR's, 7 sp's, fury Qirex
TDR: 24.33, 3 BR's, 8 sp's, fury Auricom

Couldn't stand using the Qirex and Auricom! I haven't been playing that much for the last few months, and when I have it was primarily with the Icaras. Now everything else feels weird.

I'll improve that as soon as i find some time, i want to beat my pb on that damned track ! :brickwall

17.90 5BR's 6SP Fury

There is a lot to improve, missed 2 BR's and had few wall scratches. I just can't make one clear lap with all damn BR's :(


EDIT:

17.68 6BR's 7SP Fury

Still one BR left :(

leungbok
15th September 2010, 04:21 PM
Wow, nice time phaeton ! :clap
I'll buy a new ds3 tomorrow (i broke the d-pad of my old one, yeah BRs, lol) and i'll give a try on that record ! ;)

Bah, only a 19.06 with 8 SPs and 2 BRs at the moment in the HD ship. Need to work on more.

15th September 2010, 10:52 PM
i like this SL its good...

but 7 br,s wow..i can do 4 and i thought that was super difficult..forgot my time but its not that fast gonna work on it b4 i post..


lol..just watch video and i was just realised i wasnt doing that super easy br in first bend..how could not notice that..the last br and the second between tunnels is impossible for me at the moment but at least i can do 5 in theory..so i am happy..

16th September 2010, 02:37 PM
17.95, 4 BRs and 9 SPs. Tbh I'm quite happy with it, having barely played this track at all xD I had no clue where the BRs were when I started. As you can see I got only 4, and I failed a fifth.

Think I might check out that 7BR vid then. 3 more BRs and just 0,11 faster, so I should be able to beat it if I manage the BRs.

17th September 2010, 11:00 AM
17.80 8SP 6BR HD
alot of wallscratching here and there, but the lap is ok 4 me atm.
i think i can get a 17.7-17.6 with my current technique.
i've no idea how to do a 7BR lap, the video from leungbok doesn't work with my browser :(

edit: 17.71 7BR 7SP HD
found the 7th BR by playing a bit, there's another 1 on backstraight (total 3),
so an 8BR lap is 100% possible.
and i think there's a possible double in the 2nd tunnel after jump, but im not sure!

Nutcase:259
17th September 2010, 11:22 AM
7br's????

i like how you wrote the classic method on the video.
its less of a classic method. and more of a f***ing incredible method.

it doesnt even occur to me that its physically possible to do these when im pootling around?

must just waggle the analogue stick like a mental case at the slightest whif of some air time :P :+

I got a 29.22 lap in the HD ship with 6 Speed Pads and 4 Barrel Rolls. 5 is possible if you link another one after the peak roll, but I'm unsure if it'll be worth adding to the time if it's tricky to land.

Arg, not cool at all.
I've talked with Leung yesterday, saying him I was trying the SL challenge on my side but that I don't post my ridiculous times. He convinced me to participate anyway... And I just finished my session and discover I'm too late :'(
Then I give you my time for the Seb Rev challenge :
18.81 - Furymau - 10 speed pads

Dark_Phantom_89
26th September 2010, 05:34 PM
I'll let you off Temet, only because I ended this weeks challenge early ;)

18.81 on Seb Rev though? :eek How'd you manage that when the top time this week was 25.98? :lol

Indeed, it took me a lot more time to get Guillaume's Trophee than it took me for Zico's.
I "quickly" did a 24.02 but it tool me around 700 laps to beat this ghost... it has been a nightmare. Zico took me around 250 laps "only"...

Hey Challenger !!
We are both far from being as fast as other extra terrestrials here! We can motivate each other! :)

Yesterday I made something like 21.09 with 2 br. I would really be happy to reach 20.5 :)

I have one hour left to try this (been trying for 10 minutes...), and I don't even have something to show me how to fly! :g

EDIT: 20.44, Fury, 6 SP, (I think) 2 BR
Not messing up after the boost at each lap start is the hardest part for me...

Thanks leungbok!
It seems I'm not smart enough to do a youtube search...
Next time I'll go straight to your youtube channel!

Nice first BR, I didn't even think about trying this one.
I had spotted the boost location though. But I just couldn't handle it! :blarg

Week 57 has come to a close. Congratulations to Leungbok for his victory this week and a big thanks to all who participated. All of your names will be added to the Hall of Fame Thread, though I'm sure that you all know that by now.

Last week, the WipEout community was rocked by the tragic news regarding the death of a much respected pilot - LurifaxFlux/Marcus. This weeks challenge is dedicated to him, taking into account his favourite track, ship and speed class.

SPEED LAP/ANULPHA PASS (FORWARD)/PHANTOM/FEISAR

i can't get the 5th BR at the S-section before the overpass no matter how hard i try.
some BR's are just impossible for me, perhaps its because i dont use motion pitch steering or because i play with the analog stick...
or the obvious answer it's because i'm not good. lol

Another week has come to a close and an interesting week it was. After a lot of 1st place shifting, QjonPL finally came out on top. Congratulations to Qjon, and an honourable mention to all who participated. Your names will be added to the Hall of Fame thread, which is looking particularly large now. Marcus would have been proud. :+

Slowing things down a bit with this weeks challenge:

EDIT: just been having a quick go before i go out for the night and im 100% positive there is a 3rd br, on the speed pads before the very last speed pad take the right one out of the two pitch up, side shift left and aim for the last speed pad. i could only do when prtacing not in a good lap but i think it would make the times much greater.

i dont understand mr ploopy88..u have not played for a while and you do speed lap with a time which is ok but not the best someone like you can do but you said u have been outta practice..yet you can still do those turbo br starts..
i cant do them and have not even got off the ground enough to even get the br sound and im not that bad at the game..
what am i doing wrong.. i nose down and pull up and turbo..using the stick and nothing..

do i have to have a certain pad setting like pitch only or something

please help...thankyou

had a quick go

29.17, 2 br's, 10sp's

there are a few spots where I reckon you could get enough air to do a 3rd BR, but they're all incredibly difficult to capitalise on. I reckon you could with a right SS on the corner before the tunnel for the boost, and the same thing at the end of the last tunnel just before you exit - maybe. Could definitely get another br going on the right if you could pull it off there. But yeah... both locations would be next to impossible to nail.

Challenger #001
28th October 2010, 07:03 PM
Wait, I think I must have BSB wrong then. Doesn't it stand for Before-Start-BarrelRoll?

Dark_Phantom_89
28th October 2010, 07:10 PM
No, it stands for "Boost, Select, Boost."

Basically, before your attempt lap, you boost high into the air. Then whilst in the air, you cancel your lap to get another turbo and boost again - you go flying over the line and get a big headstart.

I don't encourage it for the SL Challenge though. :brickwall

KGB
28th October 2010, 07:22 PM
No one does it anymore do they?

Aeroracer
28th October 2010, 08:54 PM
it still can be done but its a bit more difficult to do now as there is a timer on the lap cancel button.its still probally done by record setters to get that edge need for rank 1.

dont like it myself so i dont use it (cant do it either...)

All the top times for vineta k f in particular (like 20+ times), and the top times for moa therma f are all bsb. Can probably be done to decent effect on chenghou project, maybe sol2 f and amphiseum r as well.

the gain on V.K for bsb is huge, and more or less required for top 10 on MT as well for the lower speed classes...

sub 22 on moa t f is possible without bsb, WR needs bsb !

amplificated
29th October 2010, 02:54 PM
I think it was the 1.3 update that changed the cancel lap button from select to L1

bsb just became the standard descriptor for that method and it stuck even though it doesn't make sense regarding the game in its current state

yeldar2097
29th October 2010, 03:21 PM
sub 22 on moa t f is possible without bsb, WR needs bsb !

Likewise Vineta. Top 5 is fine without BSB but higher than that you do 'need' it.

Anyway, enough BSBullshit, slightly offtopic, no? ^_^

@Dark phantom......pleeeeeeeeeeeaaasssssssssssse

i know you closed time trial cos it didnt arouse enough interest but i thought it was good i just forgot to post there many a time cos it was in another thread..other probally did too..
so...
can we start it again and just post in this thread and make it always the same track/class/speed as the SL challnege..

also can we have the SP race record challenge and MP race record challenge as well.

so every week there are 4 winner slots a week..something for everyone..

best thing about it is it will add more interest ..many players cry about SL challenge as they cant do/wont do turbo br starts now they dont have to..

there something for everyone and not too much more work to do..
:hyper:hyper


opps...

almost forgot....29.70 ..quirex fury 1 br all pads..so annoying that i couldnt beat my best and couldnt do 2br lap at a better time..more practice i guess..
