Could someone test this? I don't have the reflexes: Tested Part 1)Beak bomb 2)Hold Z 3)Land as the Beak bomb ends. Untested part 4)Right before the slide ends, release Z for 1 to 3 frames 5)Hit Z This should lead to an extended slide at a slightly lower speed. 6)Repeat 4 and 5 until destination is reached.

Yeah I can't do the jump and I'm sick of trying. Can we just say that even though I'm 40 frames slower to get to the wall, colliwobble is in a better position and that 40 extra frames would be used once in the garden having to angle with sami's m64? :( It's stange how the jump is almost easy in comparison on project64 and the console compared to mupen. Also I'd like to believe this is the most time spent on the first 20 playable seconds of any game in the history of tasvideos.

GB spent close to 10 days doing the bean skip in his OOT run, which he eventually abandoned.

it's been more than 10 days. or feels like it. and many hours by many people. and the bean skip is not within the first seconds of play... Anyway I think a 40 frame loss for a better colliwobble placemenet is an acceptable loss, and might not be a real loss since you don't have to go as much out of your way to get the colliwobble honecomb piece. in the earthbound run, sometimes multiple seconds are spent luck-manipulating in battles.

I can't do the jump in Mupen, but it works perfectly fine in PJ64. Must be some difference between the emulators.

...I'lll take a whack at it. Just gotta find me a rom and prcatice the movement. Oh yeah, can someone give me a .st from just when banjo leave his house? Nevermind, I'm convinced that jump is impossible(at least on mupen) I say go around the other way(normal way) to colliwobble, just so this run can keep going on.

It's not impossible since bkDJ has done it, but it's a million times harder on Mupen. I wonder why.

After trying sami's m64 for about 2 hours, this is why I am giving up: Yes, sami gets to the fence before me. but hopefully this picture shows that with my m64, with the jump already succeeded and ready to go, the route is slightly, maybe 40 frames worth, (maybe not, someone would have to do sami's jump first) shorter. Sorry.

bkDJ, your file is good but one reason I don't use it: You don't cancel bottles speakings fast as possible. They look horrible...sorry :(

Sami, try this: http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1749/Banjo-Kazooie%20%28USA%29.m64 If you really don't like the camera movement you could try continuing from where I start the jump, but I couldn't get anything else to work...

Haha that was great. Love the shaky cam effect. :) Someone a while ago suggested doing a backflip to go up the tree faster. I can confirm that it is faster. pretending the camera is behind banjo as he's coming from the stump honeycombdont head straight for the tree, head a tiny bit to its left since the ground is higher, and backflip at the right moment so that you will grab the very top of the trunk and immediately hop up the tree. (even though you hit it from the left side you will still grab it). Then a jump to the piece to grab it, and a feathery flap to the waterfall platforms will change your direction quickly

And if you're coming from the rock area, you can even backflip all the way up. :)

Very good although I'm slightly mythed on how you only improved 1 second off bkDJ's run desptite all these new strategies that you use. The only bit I could really critizize is the swimming, but I can emphasise because I really hate swimming and Clankers Cavern is enough to put me off doing this game. Does that Super flip flap move that me and bk use make any difference to the speed Banjo travels? I think you should just move on since we've spent enough time on SM.

bkDJ's SM is good, there is not major mistakes. Those new triks don't save really much time :p and 1 second save is good I think.

Great job doing spiral mountain! The only place that looks a bit fishy to me is the bottles text skip at the top of the mountain. It looks strange, as I can't really see what was going on, but even if it wasn't optimal, you probably won't save much if it you corrected it. I remember the nightmares on swimming in this game. The swimming controls were worse than Mario64, if that's even possible. What's worse was that the controls invert themselves whenever Banjo is facing the screen. Rusty Bucket Bay might not be fun.

What is there not to see? The bottles text skip in this latest wip is probably the best recorded so far. And forget about RBB, Clanker's Cavern is going to be hell. that tas input plugin will probably be a life saver for good upward/downward underwater angling.
