Red sage cutscene skip being performed with a pause buffer.

Red sage cutscene skip is a skip in Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy that allows a player to skip the cutscene that plays after opening the teleport gate in the Red Sage's lab.

To activate the gondola, the Red Sage teleport gate must be opened and 2 power cells need to be collected afterwards.

Tutorial

Technical

The skip is performed by using a pause buffer to delay the start of the cutscene once it is triggered. Jak then dies in the lava during the pause buffer and the cutscene starts after the player exits the start menu. The game attempts to play the cutscene but cannot since Jak is in a dead state. Once Jak respawns, the cutscene is flagged as watched and the game will assume the teleport gate has been opened as intended.

Discovery

There are different variants of Red Sage cutscene skip, but the current method was discovered by Sultra.

Other Notes

This is the original Red Sage's Hut Cutscene Skip. Due to it's difficulty and length, it was not well received. (January 25, 2015)

Jazz would be the first to use the skip in runs and achieved his first WR with the skip. (February 6, 2015)

Abahbob and/or Rozer are responsible for the original skip using pause buffers, but this was quickly obsoleted the same day when Sultra put forward the method we use today. (May 17, 2015)
