I go into the caspule now and then with s. burner + air dash ( maybe it is dash to burner )... I will try to figure out how I do.
I have another question for you if you like to answer... How do you use the programming error in the beginning? I always push start and B like crazy and sometimes I come to the Start screen without seeing the beginning of the intro scene but I don´t reallt know how it works.
Thanks =)
Great job fractal. The sound were terrible but the gaming were awsome. I´m late here but I have two question for this one.
1. Before fighting morph moth. Why not use a charged S. Chain between the two doors and begin with a normal S. Burner on morph moth and finish the first form with three straight burner charges? I know you used Chain in the roof before but skip that one.
2. When enter the Shoryuken capsule. Isn´t burner+airdash faster? This way you can stand on/inside the capsule like when you took the X-buster.
This game is amazing. We will never find all time savers. I´m sure of that. (YES vote.)
oh, thanks. I forgott about correct te name. Someone told me before. But now its correct.
I don´t know how I skip the boss actually. I just do as in the vid. I always do like this. I haven´t tried to find out how. Maybe I should.
edit: and about flying with the robot. I know about it and use it now. I didn´t knew how I had to do when I did the run.
hey guys. I run this game legitimate for now and I found a lots of tricks for the moment. I know some of you know about it from SDA. But in this link you can find some videos. in one of this I skip a hole boss fight if you wanna watch it:

The files is for the moment hughe but I don´t force you to download it.
really? well I also planning a run on this game. The time for that game was more like a thought from me. I´m just under 20 minutes myself. Have beat it withouth dying game over a few times only. So you have 14 minutes? then I have a time to go for :) Are you planning this run andrew? It would be cool to see you playing it.. The last stage or so seems a little hard to speed trough.
the teleporting can be bad if you use your TAS as a FAQ or so but then its better to watch my run on SDA. I´m impressed over that the game allow this glitches. Can be possible to do with a really slack Pad some time, hehe.
so you really mean that its possible to take all the wheelers in one when I playing. Sounds good :) looking forward to test this :)
I understand what you mean about the bosses. you don´t have to waste any time checking the snow boss.
wow. I thought I knew everything about this game before but its still some stuff I don´t know about for sure!
Its an old topic but intresting. The first post here is two years old or so and some of them is incorrect.
I have beat some of the times there. (Mega man X 100%, SMB3.. MM3 maybe)
annyway. heres my list
SMB1 - 1 sec faster then the WR
SMB3 - around 11:05 is the limit with out "the glitch" (1-up-wall-cut) I think
Mega man 2 - sub 30 without glitches is possible
Mega man 3 - I will try to get at least 39 minutes maybe 38 in te future. Don´t think it possible to do much faster then that.
MEga man 4-5. around three minutes slower then the third game
Mega man X - around 35
Mega man X - around 39 ...minutes
Contra - 10:20, 10:30
Super Contra - 14 minutes
Contra III 16:50 (hard)
Duck tales - 08:50 (hard)
Duck tales 2 - PAL version. 11:20
what do you think?
wow. nice run Baxter. I enjoyed it A LOT!! :D I´m a little late here but congratulations. You have done a great job and I didn´t saw some places there you lose some time as in your old one.
Your boss fights is nice but your hits on some of the bosses is irregular, why? specially the boss on the snow-stage and the boss before entering the dojo whem splinter hanging on the wall. Also the boss before krang in the technodrome. But then you gotta know that I don´t know how you do TAS runs. I even have problems starting a game on an emulator ;):P
Your fight with Shredder was one of the highlights :D how did you brake THE REAL shredder when THE FAKED one shot you with the laser, hehe. that was cool. becuse the faked shredder do not shot laser. I guess its becuse he still has the helmet (?). Do you know how much faster you did the fight with shredder this time compared to your old run? when you killed bouth the clones?
All glitches were awsome. I didn´t knew about this before I saw this run :)
I don´t think I found something that could be of help to my next NTSC (not assistent) speedrun in the future. But the boss figt on the dojo was intresting. it seems like it can be possible to do on a console. will check it up...
And when you killed this white wheelers... it looks like you drawed them thogeter with a glitch when they start to drive over the screen.
Nice run again. spank you very much :)

oh, sorry. It was in the old TAS you didn´t use it... Or maybee I´m totally wrong annyway :S hehe, But the new one with all crazy glitches was very surprising when I saw it.
a trick?
I planning a non tool assistent speedrun of Mega man 2. I use some tricks I haven´t seen before. I haven´t read all this post here, sorry. But If I remeber correctly this trick in the flash mans stage wasn´t used in the time attack of rockman 2 here.
Flash mans stage: In the very end of the stage. Just before the two doors before the boss.. After used the Jet earlier you can still have it equipped and instead of jumping up to the plattform and move a little to the left then jump up to the right one. Instead use your jet wich should have some bars left...Use it to reach the boss door. It should save you some frames.. Maybee´I´m wrong here but I tried to help you =P Its exactly there Sleepz do one of his very few mistakes in his console played speedrun. If I remember it wasn´t used in the TAS here.
I watched a TAS for this game some month ago but Í can´t download it now. Last time I saw some techniques that would be fater I guess. Here and there :P. But I think Theres a new version this time. Somehow I can´t get The Mega man 3 attack to work. Some codec missed. Somehow I can watch all other TASs I have :P.. Don´t know what to do. I did new speedrun on the PAL version some weeks ago. I timed The gemini route and the magnet man route. Some one who know how much time you save on the gemini route? becuse I don´t think it is much at all.. You TASers can pull out a very fast Gemini fight though.
I and a friend working on a probotector speedrun. Not a tool assistent one. This run should be faster. I think that there is not more enemies in a 2 player run. I also think the bosses hae the same health. From first stage to the spread weapon in snow field (stage 5) one of us use Laser and seems like its faster. But maybe its another story in a TAS.
"Do you remember where this was? Somebody else mentioned that once and never did say. Maybe there was a reason I didn't do it, or maybe it was something I just missed."
I think it was in the hard man stage. after the third gorilla.
But i have wondering about some stuff...when you slide over some gap. I have seen that you slide over some of this and other not.
In the Spark man stage when you must pass 2 elektrik machina. There is a gap. I´ts possible to slide over this gap, but you use the slide-jump tech. And in some other gap with the same length you some times slide over and some not. I have try to slide but its very difficult. i can´t figured out exactly where i must beginn my slide :( did you know something or have you try to slide over and over again untill you make it?
Hi, I´m a swedish gamer and have did a speedrun in SDA.
The Time attack run was very nice and isn´t long from perfect. It was a couple of time there you could save more time. The biggest "time saver" is in the Needle Stage (secon version). After the first boss you don´t have to take this blue tanks. You can jump all the time so you dont need more "fuel" :P
One time you could have take RC a little bit later to yump longer up in a ladder. But it was a cool Time attack!
