30nm6520

From DoomWiki.org

30nm6520 is a speedrun through all of Doom II on Nightmare! difficulty. It was released by Steffen Winterfeldt in May 1996[1] on Compet-n, and as the first published demo of its kind it received widespread attention. However, its authenticity was soon questioned by the speedrunning community and by the end of 1996 it was deemed cheated[2] via slow-motion and segmentation,[3] likely in collaboration with Uwe Girlich.[4][5] Though Steffen has never made any public admission of this, in later years this verdict was upheld.[6][7][8]

The first non-cheated speedrun was 30nm4949 by Thomas Pilger (Panter).
