this is similar to umk3 but with some distinct differences: more characters and stages from older games, new moves, harder to loop enemies because not all enemies die to HPT from all other enemies. Sound cant be removed, just lowered! Taking damage became relevant since you can't remove flawless victory sound, it's 150 frames long!
Shang Tsung can HPT most enemies, has access to morphs if needed another combo Sheeva cant HPT women ninjas for example but has an amazing normal combo for shao kahn.
i havent managed to produce any relevant combos that would speed up like the kabal infinite in umk3 snes, so i'm stuck with sheeva, i'll keep on testing and looking for new stuff so i can speed up any of the boss fights.
id like to thank MK SPEEDRUNS DISCORD for the help with HPT https://discord.gg/RmCkKV9JgB

GoddessMaria: Claiming for judging.
GoddessMaria: Updated the movie file with the improvement. Looks good enough from an optimization standpoint. It's also amusing to see a few variations thrown in as well with the transformations, especially against Shao Kahn.
Accepting this movie.

"Hahahahahaha- SHANG TSUNG WINS" This is exactly what I'm expecting from a good fighting game TAS, easy "yes" vote!
Current project: Gex 3 any% Paused: Gex 64 any% There are no N64 emulators. Just SM64 emulators with hacky support for all the other games.

How come you changed into different characters for the last 2 fights? I'm unaware of the ins and outs of Mortal Kombat and I knew there was a feature that let you swap fighters mid fight, but I thought that was from using a cheat code. Or are you able to use that ability without cheats in this game?

Its one of the ability of Shang Tsung, no cheats required.

On N64 version, thanks to the cartridge technology, Shang Tsung's morphs take no time, unlike CD-based consoles.
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

im almost completing an improvement in motaro and shao fights... here it is: https://tasvideos.org/UserFiles/Info/638106169217679846
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.
