I'd like to hear some more specifics about this from Baddap1. What bugs were fixed, how do they affect the run, etc. And I definitely would like to know what's with the starting from a savestate.
http://www.youtube.com/Noxxa <dwangoAC> This is a TAS (...). Not suitable for all audiences. May cause undesirable side-effects. May contain emulator abuse. Emulator may be abusive. This product contains glitches known to the state of California to cause egg defects. <Masterjun> I'm just a guy arranging bits in a sequence which could potentially amuse other people looking at these bits <adelikat> In Oregon Trail, I sacrificed my own family to save time. In Star trek, I killed helpless comrades in escape pods to save time. Here, I kill my allies to save time. I think I need help.

When I said that all the glitches were repaired wanted to say that you can not run the Boss Skip, neither C1 Skip because the camera moves very quickly to the right. (Sorry for the bad english)

I have a question, why the tianwodeai's TAS ends before? Should end when he loses megaman control.

The convention for TAS timing is that it starts when the console powers on and ends when you stop giving input to the game (and the game must be completed with no additional input necessary, of course). RTA timing conventions are different - they go from when you gain control to when you lose control, because RTA speedruns have no input file to determine 'when the player stopped entering inputs'.

Crazy run! This is so different from a regular Mega Man TAS. Really enjoyed watching it, even though I have no idea what's it like to play it in real time...

We should do a TAS getting 100 on the score. Don't suck up Eddie. Rescue Beat and Rush. Use the Toad spell and spare Toad Man. Get all items except for the Energy Splitter. Reach Chimerabot 3's chamber without dying to fight Super Shadow Man. Clear the escape sequence without dying three times. Visit each robot master stage only once. Avoid getting a game over. Beat the game in under 100 minutes. The ?Dagger is optional as Super Shadow Man is an optional boss. Do it perfectly and you'll unlock the Mechanical Arena.
