 I suggest taking the non-alert right side path to get out of the main building. Follow the above posted run as an example.

 ====Tower Bldg. 1F (Spiral)====
 Walk all the way to the center elevator and take it up to meet Red Blaster.
 ====Red Blaster====
+Because the spider silk lines take way longer to break and have Snake continue walking,\\
+the general suggestion is to beat Red Blaster in the first room with the elevator door.
+One variant can be to start walking right and breaking the two left spider silk lines.\\
+Then constantly juggle Red Blaster going left and right and throwin grenades onto the ceiling.
+**REMEMBER: you can't stay close to the top wall, because you grenades will land in the out of bounds and just vanish.**
+Generally keep to the middle wall, or bottom of the upper walkway to have the right distance.\\
+Walk left or right, tap up to turn up, throw grenade, keep moving to either side and loop until the fight is over.
+Example position where to stand away from the ceiling:\\

 ===== Tower Roof Pigeon =====
+Walk up to the tower roof and explode the wall to enter the rooftop.\\
+Put on the B2 ration to get the pigeon to land and get the secret message.
+Call 140.51 to reach Kio Marv\\
+Call 140.82 to reach Petrovich Madnar
+Then walk back out again. You can save and load to teleport, but because of the longer load times\\
+and the run (as of now) being timed RTA, it may not be worth it teleporting back outside of the rooftop.
+This is where you get teleported to. If the pigeon lands on one of the bottom screens, it is faster to just walk out of the rooftop.\\

 ===== Meet Gustava =====
 ====Tower Bldg. 1F (Spiral)====
-====Tower Bldg. B1 (Sewers)====
+Walk out of the Spiral leaving through the south door. You will get spotted and have an alert happen. \\
-TBD if better alternative because of the cold effect.
+Just keep waling south into the desert and the alert will drop on screen transition.
+====Tower Bldg to Main Bldg ====
+Keep waling south to enter building one and get to the central elevator to take it up to 4F.
 ====Zanzibar Bldg. 4F====
+Unlike the PS2/HDC pathing, you can actually just sneak past the camera at the north end path without being seen.\\
+Similar to the PS2/HDC version of the game, you have to wait a short moment before keep on walking before the guard sees you.\\
+That way you can make it through the floor without an alert.
+Refer to this clip as reference:\\
+https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx7BxZOJ_dwALoxVi4fEaZmuIqxbJI-LOx
 ====Tower Bldg. B3 (Gustava and Dr. Madnar Escort)====
+Because Snake is running slower compared to PS2/HDC, you have to wait\\
+in the crevice of the wall to let the "bulldozer" bypass you before walking onwards.
+https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxne4BEJEdXMfqWNtlPkN4q0thT2razi9J
 ====Crevice South====
+You can technically warp back with save loading to the elevator that leads you back to the underground B3 back to Building 1 4F.\\
+As of now the route has not been tested if it is faster compared to what has been outlined here.
+After the cutscenes are done playing, walk south and keep right to the boxes to not walk into the mines.\\
+Get into the truck to get the mines we need later in the speedrun. Then enter the Spiral from the top.
