i know its the wrong place but how to generate CLS on cube explorer

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CgQGoDGa34Y here's a tutorial that gives you quite a good guide to the way cube explorer works. I believe he also has another more in depth video on his channel as well

4x4 lbl last lsyer

I was trying to solve my 4x4 using lbl but when I got to the last layer I realized I needed to flip and permute a series of 2-4 singular edges. I managed to come up with an alg that would flip two singular edges that where across from each other. I thought in this forum we could come up with ideas to solve this problem.

Spoiler: I got to this point

you can use pretty much any big cube BLD method to solve this

Should have algs that you need. Or you could use comms for 3 cycles like:
r' D' r U r' D r U r' D' r U2 r' D r

Thanks a ton guys

In addition to those, here are algorithms for adjacent 2-cycle cases, here are algorithms for adjacent double parity, and here are algorithms for solving 5 "oriented wing edges simultaneously. You can also take a look at my 3-Look K4 Last Layer Method PDF.

Does anyone have/ know where to find a set of algs for the fish & chips LL (final step of Snyder2)?

Thanks

Hi - check my sig line for my PLL alg guide. YMMV - I got a lot of feedback - some people love it, others don't care for it (fair enough). Anyway, it contains algs for all 84 PLL angles (some of which are for completion rather than use/speed).

Thanks for your PLL guide it helps some and I'm going to get back to you with some questions when you have a chance.

Good job!

anyone know a faster alg for OLL 39 I currently use (R U R' F') U' F U (R U2 R')

well the common alg is L F' L' U' L U F U' L' from a U2 away of your alg. I think it's decent: it's short and it's a good way to start using more <LU> in your solves. I use your alg too though which is a bit faster and regripless.

the only lefty alg I use is L' U' L U' L' U L U L F' L' F for the W case, I also can do all sunes/antisunes lefty along with the wide sunes/antisunes

How do you do the the RUF alg regripless.

 

[scottishcuber]

OH-push the second U.

 

[Bindedsa]

OH-push the second U.

I've always used the flick. I've been mixing the U' push with my right hand into my solving a lot, maybe I should do the same with the left.

 

[Praetorian]

OH-push the second U.

M (F R' F' R) (U R U' R') U' M'

F' with left index pull and U' with right index finger I just found this its really fast for me

Thanks - glad it's helping! PM me on here if you like, or use the contact info from the back page of the document.

Cheers!

Anything good for OLL 35 from the y2 angle?
There's nothing on the wiki or algDB.

You prompted me to start generating.

Especially recently I have wanted the same alg for the angle in the pic...and now I have it:

R2 F R F' R U2 R' U R U2 R' U' R

...its just so good
...plus its another OLLCP case and a fairly decent 1LLL case.

Wow cool, thanks.
I like it!

They might do, since it's just two F2L inserts.

It's a nice alg, but I don't think it's faster than U2 + normal OLL. But I think I'll use it for OLLCP.
