Looking good! I don't suppose that the Model H fight could be manipulated so he doesn't do the "Dodge this!" move? Seems like that slowed things down significantly since you couldn't follow up with a ground slash.

Nope, Aeolus will always do that attack once half of his health is gone. And yeah, unfortunately it slowed down the battle by 1.5 second :P

New WIP: Scrapyard and Control Center YouTube This part had some of the most annoying parts to TAS so far. EDIT: replaced .dsm link with a non-broken version.

all that climbing was beautiful to watch, Vulturon looked kind of slow and the last hit on the bee didn't hit asap, but maybe that can't be helped? I loved the level :)

Looking good! I usually used Thetis on Queenbee, though I can't recall why...probably because of the big arc on his aerials.

Great job so far dude, i like how you used ZX, and yay for getting a Pikachu. Apparently it moves way faster, and it is better for small spaces.

Actually, its maximum movement speed is the same as Model A/F/H/L/P/ZX/Buckfire/etc. dash. It's only faster if it's rolling down a slope, although it wouldn't be worth it to Megamerge into it just for that.

personally I think it's sad to know that the normal Models dash is the fastest, I would've liked to see other forms being faster can't wait for you to finish it

Hooray, you got Hedgeshock! She may be practically useless, but that "whoah" clip she says sometimes when she starts rolling is adorable. <3 The run looks good!

Waterfall Ruins and Bio Lab done (part 7). YouTube This is the last WIP that will be posted here before submission. Here is a savestate pack of the TAS so far, containing 8 save states from the beginning of every WIP part.

will wait for that encode sorry for the possibly dumb question, but how long will it take you to finish it at this point?

I plan to get it done before the end of the year, but I'm not sure if I will succeed. As far as the game goes, I just need to do the final two stages - Underground Volcano I don't see myself have much problem at, and Ouroboros is mainly going to be long due to the boss rush, but half of the bosses will probably beaten with the same tactics as they were done before anyway. Then the final boss's second phase will require some thinking for an optimized way to beat him.

this segment is fucking awesome, sir only thing, the battle with the alligator boss looked slow, can't you take a hit in to go behind his back to the weak point? or does he turn around too quickly for it to be benefitable? also I guess you tested this but, right after when you are in the water, it's not faster to jump out of it?

Hitting his weak spot is not benefitable in a noticable way. It only allows 1 extra point of damage for an entire combo. And I'm pretty sure that not getting hit is faster, as it'd probably take too long to get behind him due to the water and ice.
ALAKTORN wrote:

The floor is ice, and due to the water it's not possible to go fast enough to get dash jump speed. Therefore, dashing over the ice in the water is faster than jumping over the water. (Notice how Ashe only gets normal jump horizontal speed when jumping to the door). EDIT:Oh, and I also tested Megamerging into Model L (which negates both water and ice effects) and it turned out to be slower.

ah right, hitting weak spots is almost useless edit: thought about asking that (the edit) but figured it'd be slower
