| − | = Tricks =
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Bull jumping ===
| + | |
| − | Performed by standing on top of a bull and jumping when it is about to attack. The altitude reached is timing dependent, but a perfect bull jump gives roughly the same height as a standard bull boost in non-HD. Getting launched by two bulls throws you even higher into the air (double bull jumping).
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Bull riding ===
| + | |
| − | A really fast and relatively simple boost. Just get on top of a Werebull while it is running. Usually does not work if on even ground with the Werebull, easier to do when it comes charging down a hill. After a while it will stop to attack you, but it is possible to cancel out the attack by jumping out of its attack range and landing back on again. You can also let its attack hit you while you jump to perform a boosted bull jump.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Getting anywhere with Floating Gnaars ===
| + | |
| − | Unlike in non-HD, the Floating Gnaars do not float higher if you simply keep jumping on them. However, you can trick them to do so by jumping horizontally out of their attacking range, making them move towards you to attack. By landing on them again, you will be floating horizontally towards the opposite direction you were attacked from. Even better, if you scroll wheel jump after doing this they will keep following you upwards, meaning you can quickly reach any height. Finally, you can make them sink by crouching when standing on them.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Harpy jumping and flying ===
| + | |
| − | Just like with the Floating Gnaar, it is possible to reach any height with a Harpy. First make it fly into a wall or stun it (four bullets with the Tommygun), then jump on to its back and scroll wheel jump. It works the same way as with the Floating Gnaar, except the Harpy will continuously kick you while you are standing on it, possibly canceling out the jumps. The kicking attacks can in turn be used to gain extremely fast horizontal speed. Stun the Harpy and jump on to its head, then wait for it to start kicking you. You will start floating towards the kicking direction, and for each consecutive kick, your speed will increase. However, you will need to move towards the center of the Harpy during or after each kick to adjust your position, otherwise you will be knocked off. This is extremely hard to control as your velocity increases, so you can gain some extra time on the Harpy by stunning it, making it stop kicking for a moment. By combining the jumping and the horizontal boost you can basically fly around the levels.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Super Kleer jump ===
| + | |
| − | Involves riding on multiple Kleers to build up enough momentum to get boosted up a sloped wall. Can result in altitudes as high as a strong cannon jump in non-HD.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Falling through the ground ===
| + | |
| − | There is a glitch which makes it possible to fall through the ground by pressing crouch as you are about to land. The glitch is dependent on frame rate, altitude and the thickness of the ground geometry. The lower the frame rate and the longer you fall as well as the thinner geometry, the higher the chances of falling through the ground. It is practically impossible on 60 FPS, hence why 30 FPS should be used to perform this glitch.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Turbo Laser ===
| + | |
| − | By binding primary fire to mouse wheel, the Lasergun can fire three times as fast on 60 FPS, dealing 600 DPS (second only to Cannon).
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | === Useful console commands ===
| + | |
| − | cht_bEnableCheats=2 - Enables the cheat menu accessed by pressing F3 when in the menu.<br/>
| + | |
| − | gfx_iMaxFPSActive=X - Limits the FPS to X. Default is 2000.
