What do you mean by "chops" exactly? The manner in which I control the character with the keyboard?
Sometimes I can be smooth, and sometimes it's really "choppy' (to use your word in a different way). I felt in this video I was quite messy/choppy, but I didn't feel like re-recording it.
The main reason I don't use the mouse is because I can't get as good control with it. Of course the last time I tried it was with one of those old "ball" mice, not the laser type....

Yeah, I meant your control. It's very impressive to watch from my point of view. I have absolutely no precision with the keyboard at all and always swing past where I intend to point and spend half my time adjusting the direction I'm either going in or shooting in. |

I think I used to be a lot better with the keyboard. I used to be able circle-strafe around an enemy, but when I tried it recently I didn't do too well... _________________ I love ROTT |

The video walkthrough for the shortest level ("Grand Plans Cut Short") has been completed:
http://mikemiller.net/rott/mikemad_walkthrough/
The title of this level arose because the level was originally a lot larger, but I had to dramatically cut it down to keep it from crashing. It was during the development and testing of this level that I began to run into limitations of the game's engine, and learning more than I ever intended about creating ROTT maps.
Usually when I play this level, I zoom through it like Lawstiker did according to his report. So I decided to make sure I killed all the enemies and robots in the big room before heading for the exit in this walkthrough.
Enjoy,

So do you have the game saved in several places where you got stuck and had to skip to the next level? _________________ I love ROTT |

Yes, anytime I had to skip past a spot I made sure to save it before I did so I could go back and make sure I 100% finish this. _________________ Head on over to the Rise of the Triad HQ for ROTT news, downloads, and more!

I have completed my video walkthrough of the next level in the episode, called "Just Give Up, Part 1".
This one has some interesting parts, including an area where you have two possible routes you can take: a straightforward shoot-em-up path, or a somewhat hidden, tricky, more difficult path that leads you to a God Mode power up.
And of course there's the area Lawstiker dubbed The Hall of Gibs, which is always fun to experience.
Check it out. http://mikemiller.net/rott/mikemad_walkthrough/
