i think i'm testing around with YI a bit, so i can get used to the game. i'm also trying to understand the speed physics... i think there isn't a good lua script for showing useful information out there, because you are using RAM Watch in your streams... i thought i start doing a lua script, but it needs a lot of work to be a decent script. edit: there is also some RAM search needed for this game, i think...

I actually prefer ramwatch so my screen isn't as cluttered, though I'd be interested to see what sorts of things are possible using a lua script instead. Yoshi's speed does have a lot of quirks to it, and weird inputs. A basic one that I don't think is on the game resource page is using <>><_ _ _ to face backwards without losing speed.

Nitsuja had made a LUA script for this game, where it showed a colored trail behind Yoshi that tracked his speed (i.e. the color would change if the speed dipped down below what you want it), as well as made ghost Yoshi's in different savestates to compare.

I think this might be it? I was looking through my old PM messages with Nitsuja. savestate comparison: http://www.filexoom.com/showfile-8419/snes9xyi.zip

Very cool script. You know what it's really amazing for though? Real-time speedrunning practice, where you can't look at ramwatch fast enough to see your speed but you can see the color change. Also, racing against your best time on a level :D Could the blue yoshi ghost blob theoretically be a ghost yoshi instead? That would be awesome.

to make it "ghost yoshi" we need an address which shows yoshi's currently animation (like this for SMW), and also a picture with all animations shown (that wont be a problem, i think) and also a super awesome lua scripter edit: i just found the address of Yoshis animation, its 7000BE...

It's certainly pretty glitchy. If you throw a big egg or a chicken at it, it crashes the game entirely.

I can't remember if I've already posted this here or not, but here's a document I created a while back with a bunch of memory addresses, codes, and assembly logs from YI. Some of the memory addresses at the beginning might be helpful.

sorry for doublepost again, but i always find something new ._. So, today i tested what would happen if you would hit the message block thrice at the same time, because it would crash if you do it twice. What happened: smv Link to video

We're currently about halfway through 4-5. I can't work on the run for the next few weeks, but after that we plan to get a lot done this summer. :)

So I'm curious about something: is there a workaround for the [graphical] glitch that occurs when you loadstate in certain rooms?

I use a different version of snes9x 1.43 (v13 I think?) for the like four rooms in the game that do that.

I TAS levels individually, and since lsnes can't start a movie in the middle of a game, I'm not going to be switching to it any time soon.

We are currently on 4-8! After this level is done, we will probably release more smvs/videos.
