News: ROTM #5 - zza on kz_sandblock_ez

07/08/20 - 19:04:27

Written by: Nubz

Hello XJ,

The weekend is about to start and we have the next ROTM ready to be presented for you, guys!

The demo we wanted to pick from the latest releases was kz_sandblock_ez made in 04:30.34 by

zza

Picking almost any demo wouldn't go wrong, but

zza

coming back after so many years, showing us the level of skills he still has and beating an old legendary map with 5 seconds of improvement is astonishing.
Those are the qualities of a Run Of The Month for sure.

Now we're excited to see if

shooting-star

is willing to push this record even further.
The previous record had a fail of maybe 3-4 seconds, so

zza

managed to not just keep the run flawless but also climbing the map faster overall. Good job, we all hope to see more of you in the near future!

Nubz : I wanted to create a pleasant and progressive atmosphere for a longer run like this. I added some spices here and there to keep you interested while watching. The song is called Shadows by n u a g e s, in case someone is wondering.
Now, click the play button and enjoy!

Featuring:

zza

Map: kz_sandblock_ez
Time: 04:30.34 (-00:04.98)

News: LJ Section Update: 5 New Techniques

30/07/20 - 22:44:29

Written by: p0ker

Comments: 34

Buenas noches everyone,

The long-awaited results of the LJ poll are finally here! All the necessary preparations for the LJ section update have been completed and we are excited to see demos of the new techniques being pushed to their limits.
So, without further ado, let us turn to the matter in hand.

Longjump Poll Results:

WeirdJump [WJ] - 88.9%

LadderJump [LDJ] - 85.3%

StandUp CountJump [SCJ] - 67.8%
4. Slide LongJump [SLJ] - 61.9%
5. BhopJump [BJ] - 61.6%

These are the five new techniques that will be supported from now on in the longjump section.

On the other hand, here are the rest of the results of the techniques that did not quite make it:

6. WallSlide LongJump [WSLJ] - 37.8%
7. DuckBhop Jump [DBJ] - 36.8%
8. AfterJump [AJ] - 34.5%
9. StandUp AfterJump [SAJ] - 25.4%

Incidentally, it is possible that this is not the be all and end all for the latter part of these techniques, since the way the new LJ maps have been constructed would allow to demo record all of them. There are even a few more that aren't listed here. This means that all of them could be added within the LJ section one day. However, this is just a possibility so it is not guaranteed that it will happen, but stay tuned if you are interested to find out!

Important: In order to properly perform the techniques, the LJ rules section had to be updated with the following rules: (Make sure to read the rest of the LJ records rules here)

The following maps are accepted for official LJ records:

kz_longjumps2
NEW: kz_longjumps3
NEW: kz_longjumps3_slides

The demo must be compressed with WinRAR. The .rar package must be named "block_technique_playername", using the following abbreviations:

Standup Countjump - scj
Bhopjump - bj
Weirdjump - wj
Ladderjump - ldj
Slide Longjump - slj

You are allowed to submit old wj demos from kzlt_weirdjumps. However, all new wj demos must be recorded on kz_longjumps3. Additionally, ladderjumps and slide longjumps are only allowed on the new maps.

The standard longjump prestrafe is the only allowed prestrafe technique for slide longjumps of any kind. Use of bhops or ducks in order to boost your prestrafe is not allowed.

At a later point, once "kz_longjumparena" by

Roadrunner

is finished (you can find it here), it will be also accepted for recording longjumps officially. This is the only exception we are willing to make given the results of said thread.

You can download the new LJ maps for the accepted techniques from the links down below:

Maps:

kz_longjumps3 by

Chichin

kz_longjumps3_slides by

Qicg

Use the regular demo submission section to upload demos with the new LJ techniques. Also, make sure to pick the correct type of demo which is a "Longjump Record".

Have fun recording,
XJ

News: LJ Update #2 2020

22/07/20 - 04:39:57

Written by: Commandeer

Comments: 29

Hello community,

It's time for the second edition of LJ updates for this year. This one comes along with a few old names many of you might regocnize. Some of these were recorded as early as 2012, but we're happy to see them uploaded now that the tops are extended. This update comes before the technique extension of the LJ tops that surely brings in a lot of new and interesting jumps to watch. Also a reminder to anyone who still has possible LJ top demos saved, you must upload them again in order to get them accepted and added. To all the mappers patiently waiting for a map release, we say your wait will soon be over.

Since the new technique update will bring along another form of bhop longjumps, please remember to rename your demo to bj or sbj according to the technique used. We also request to name your mcj demo accordingly, if 3 or more ducks were used to perform the jump. For example:

246_bj_abcd
247_sbj_abcd
273_mcj_abcd

Thank you for your patience with the LJ updates and congratulations to all new entries!

News: XJ Premiere: keg - killing edges gracefully by zythH^

05/07/20 - 21:22:23

Written by: Nubz

Comments: 30

Hello XJ,

It is the end of the week and we are glad to present you a brand new kreedz movie!
keg - killing edges gracefully created by

zythH^

. The movie is showcasing some stylish edgebug/ledge combos in various kreedz maps done by

nobody^.

zythH^

managed to create very catchy atmosphere to a rap song. Not an easy task I must say. Usually I am not a fan of kreedz movies edited to rap songs, unless it's done well and that is what you are about to see. A well done kreedz movie.

The movie is build to a fast paced rhythm yet the flow is chill at the same time making watching it very pleasant. You will see

nobody^ floating down various kreedz maps making creative choices for multiple edgebugs.
A way of trickjumping that the legendary

k3G once invented.
Great to see this kind of trickjumps still done with passion!

Now I would like to let

zythH^

himself share a few words about this project and his thoughts on it!

Hello XJ community! It has been a while since my last movie hit the frontpage here, but today I managed to finish a project that required a lot work from me. I would like to share my appreciation to Nubz , blackelf and psh for the help during the creation of the movie, specially Nubz who helped me a lot, without him this movie wouldn't be what it is right now. And with that being said, this project is pretty much a farewell to two kreedz players and we couldn't be happier with the outcome, we sincerely hope you enjoy it as much as we do. And last but not least, thank you nobody^ for giving me the opportunity and believing in me to edit a trickjump movie for this community and you, it was a pleasure to do it for a friend since 2010. Without further a do, there is a list of names I would like to give a big shoutout: g-Lp , Phinx , k3G, jusuuh and the people I have been in touch since I signed here, thank you all.

Enjoy!
