http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/20054352410545299 Link to video The first two levels are finished. I'm sure this movie is going to look very different from the SNES ones since the game mechanisms are considerably different. I tried to follow [2440] SNES Contra III: The Alien Wars "pacifist" by McBobX in 14:05.31, but the games seem to be too different. For instance, Weapon C is weakened, and L becomes the strongest weapon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UJFDfnifuY The run is about half a minute faster than this Tool-assisted Flawless Playthrough by entering Level 3.

lol no mode7 stages,i guess that's good.It's how they got worked up to do a new game.
I want all good TAS inside TASvideos, it's my motto. TAS i'm interested: Megaman series, specially the RPGs! Where is the mmbn1 all chips TAS we deserve? Where is the Command Mission TAS? i'm slowly moving away from TASing fighting games for speed, maybe it's time to start finding some entertainment value in TASing.

http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/23737571357749220 Here is the movie file that hasn't been touched for almost five months. All the mini-bosses in stage 3 have been beaten. I'll probably port all the inputs to mGBA core after a newer version of it is ported to Bizhawk.

Instead of the two Mode 7 stages, they put in two stages from Contra: Hard Corps. That game's mechanics are different than Contra III's, so those stages are much harder in this port.
