This is for anyone who wants to go for a 100% run of this game. He has gameplay videos of completing the levels 100% (collecting tokens don't count for the 100% run though). Someone could get the idea of route planning just by watching those videos. :P
I was also thinking about TASing the game, but my computer wasn't powerful enough to handle the emulation. I would've needed a new computer. :(

No computer is going to run dolphin at 60 fps with tasable settings, since you have to turn off dual core, and idle skipping. I've been tasing on my laptop which runs at about 15-25 fps, and it's not a problem at all. It's a bit annoying when playing back to check for desyncs, but it makes no difference when actually tasing. I'd say that as long as your computer isn't 10 years old and not capable of even running dolphin, you should give it a shot.

Ah, okay. I'll look to see if I can give it a try. I've once tried to run Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door on my computer using Dolphin 3.0 awhile ago. However, the lag was TERRIBLY slow, and I couldn't even get to the file-select screen.

I think I'll get on this game?

TASVideos is like a quicksand, you get in, but you cannot quit the sand

I've been following speedruns of this game lately and was rather surprised that nobody had tried doing a TAS (That I could find). I've played around a bit with it in dolphin recently, though I haven't produced anything significant yet. I haven't done a GC TAS yet, so I'm still getting the hang of things and learning.
Most of the levels don't have any big skips, though it takes quite a bit of effort to get all of the rev rolls optimal. Precise timing is largely trial and error. The route used by the WR is pretty optimal, so I'm starting there and seeing where I can improve from that in a TAS.
If anybody has advice, feel free to let me know.

It looks like there was quite a bit of interest in this game, though Dolphin was too primitive at the time for a TAS to be made. There are also a few memory addresses in that thread if you need some.
Good luck on your run!
Finished TAS. Trying to figure out how to encode so I can do it for myself (want to learn so maybe I can encode others videos as well). Gonna give myself til around friday.
