Segmentation was performed using the built-in quicksave/quickload functionality. Because Red Faction has no demo functionality, all segments had to be recorded as videos, which occasionally makes for some visual inconsistencies. All in-game music was added in editing to eliminate music cut offs when segmenting. I used music from the HD music pack TJ_ for this: https://www.factionfiles.com/ff.php?a... This run was performed using Pure Faction (3.0e), which is deprecated and now considered a legacy client. This is the last run I plan to perform using this deprecated client. My future runs will be using the defacto standard client Dash Faction. Total segment count for the run came in at 1,192 - over 700 of which are less than 1 second long.
