Hey, for a tip, I remembered grinding the Anteroom in real time play since one of the vases seems to drop gold bars every now and then without a limit. If my memory is correct, I used this to get gold bar from one of the vases and then use toad to save and reset before trying again. In other words it should be checked which places can be manipulated to give coins/goldbars.
No, it doesn't, it spawns only once, it's get or let dissapear either.

Find a place close to toad, clear room, grab gold bars, save and reset? wouldn't saving and resetting take a lot of time ?
This game can store two rooms at once, if you enter another room, the (1st room) will be resetted (the furnitures and vases) can be shaken again to pop money, hearts or poison mushroom. The potraits ghosts doesn't reset when you enter any room, like Shivers (where he goes to room butler's room) the good example is the dinner room and kitchen, where Mr.Luggs attacks during off-screen.

I'm going to be picking up this game. Right now though, I need a version of Dolphin that doesn't speed up the game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9irK9-wx1A&feature=youtu.be) and lets me actually hold down the frame advance hotkey.

Wait, so Dolphin runs as fast as in the video for you? It should run at the right speed if framelimit is set to Auto and you aren't holding the toggle framelimit hotkey.

Are you going to try a 100% Hidden Mansion (E)? That would make it rather different than the usual.

Did you try A/V syncing the video? If the game runs at 30 FPS, Dolphin might be dumping each frame at the shorter 60 FPS length, so each second of video contains two seconds of gameplay. You could fix this with the A/V sync hack (if your Dolphin revision is old enough) or probably by just slowing the video down to 0.5x speed.

Hmm, few questions I have regarding that clip: 1) What version of dolphin are you using? 2) Does this speedup happen for other games? If using a newer version of Dolphin, I have a Pull Request which adds back the hold to frame advance hotkey (and some speed configurations). I can look into the issue later if it's a recent version of Dolphin in terms of speed.

Yeah this^ I don't know why I didn't think of this when you mentioned your problem to me... 30FPS games get dumped at 60 for whatever reason, slow the recording down in your video editor. Audio should run at normal speed.

Thanks for the help. That makes sense now! I was using 4.0.2 and I will continue to do so from here on out. I'll be doing any% no oob (japanese) just to clarify.

Can be that Malleo has already mentioned it somewhere, thus sorry for the question... But when the video of this famous TAS will arrive?

This TAS was amazing, please submit it! It would make such a great addition to the published, super broken one.
Current project: Gex 3 any% Paused: Gex 64 any% There are no N64 emulators. Just SM64 emulators with hacky support for all the other games.

The commentary almost couldn't keep up with everything that was happening for a while!

Completely unrelated to the run(s), but what happens if you glitched into Boolosus's room without ice medal? Would the battle still be able to be completed? I don't have the game with me atm, so I cannot check.
