Here's another bug for the old Hourglass I remembered: Trying to bring up the menu in Bound Plus causes the game to freeze for a while then resume without bringing the menu. Also the title screen intro for said game goes by far too fast in Hourglass compared to the actual speed in game.

Well, if a 100% TAS be made, can I suggest using the (E) version? The hidden mansion there is quite different than the normal mansion.

Anyone have any ideas?
I think a pic of the player grabbing the coin case might work, since I think that item would never be used in a glitchless run. (unless I remember wrong)

It uses cheat codes anyways, so it won't get accepted regardless. Speaking of which, I'm surprised even with the use of cheats it still takes 47+ minutes to get to the credits. :o Now if only there was a way to skip tower of riddles like that as well....

Looking back at the thread, can this trick be used without groundpound? Link to video Since I was wondering would that allow you to skip the first goomba fight.

For RNG, it was mentioned before that all floors are determined for the dungeon as soon as you enter, but not sure was it mentioned how manipulable it is. Also I'm curious is it possible to get all the stair wells appear underneath you for the entire dungeon, or are they'll limits on how many times this can happen consecutively.

You know what could've been better? If you had used that position control thing during the boss battles to make it look like you're zooming all over the screen. ;)

Runs of this game should do all subgames imo since it doesn't seem finished like this.

Said YES. Love this game, nice TAS. But.. you beat the game soooo fast so we could not enjoy the run. What about a "No Warp" run ? Well done anyway ;)
I rather see a 100% run instead. Also I wonder how would that look like using this glitch (since it can only be done once).

I've currently gotten up to Hooktail's Castle where I am approximately 6000 frames faster (No, that is not a typo). This is because of the Shwonk Fortress skips. Much more progress will be made in the many months to come!
:o Is Koops skipped this time? Also what dolphin rev was used btw?

Link to video Start @ 1:36, redid two of the routes, gained less than a second on Stage 3(timer still ends at :59 though), and Stage 4 rings - gained a second. Cant replicate how alec did the police chase so fast so I tried to improve it best I could. The Dark shadows done 4 seconds faster should compensate for it if anything.
Try asking alec how he did it. Also at the first car section, what's with the 2nd car you pick up? :o

Wow, that was awesome! It featured incredible runs such as Super Mario Bros. in 03:24.02 by adelikat. Infact, my favourite part of the run was this:

Look at this: http://www.twitch.tv/snarfybobo/c/3959982 Blue coin from the spider without yoshi
How hard is that trick? Is it position specific and was only done via sheer luck?

I just saw almo's stream to see how he applies the glitch, and he uses groundstomp to get up the shelf. How does that work? Any other uses for that?

If you're going to redo the earlier stages, try figuring out how to recreate what happened at the police section for the RTS.

Tell me what you think of the pathing of stage 2 and 3. I do know the RTS is faster at the police car part(cause he picks up the car faster)
How many rings are you allowed to skip? Does it vary by stage? Also How does the RTS pick the car faster? Better spawning?

0_o How did you get yoshi before hand anyways? Goombella buffer?
Sorry I took so long to reply. By using a glitch in Chapter 2, we skip a sequence cutscene. We complete most of Chapter 3 (this is when we get Yoshi) and then go back to Chapter 2. We trigger Chapter 2 and then re-enter Chapter 3. There's no goombella buffer lol...
What events does this trick skip and how much time in total saved?
