I came across the original capture file for this line and wanted to share the raw footage with y'all.
I tried reuploading the original .mpg directly to YouTube earlier, but the quality was even worse:

..so I had to re export it in 1440p, and this is the result.
This was the first line of its kind (as far as I know). People strung together amazing No Manual lines, Robot Lines, and Start-to-finish scoring lines from THPS1 and THPS2 eras, but no one had made a line specifically for style (that also included manuals).
I spun the wrong direction, did the wrong trick, and was derailed by misfires a few times, so I had to improvise my way back to the line and just roll with it.
This wasn't a perfect take, but it was so frustrating to capture, so I eventually settled with this one.
I had actually set aside time during THUG development to record this with pro gear, and have it as an unlockable video in THUG, but I couldn't land it in time.
I've always wondered if more people would watch this if I didn't have Dillinger Escape Plan as the background music blasting everyone's faces.
Eventually I might make a commentary video with this, but I just came across the original recording and wanted to share.
Let me know if you have any questions in the comments below.
