Rom Check Sum:5ecc579a0e55a812f3b171e5dbfd9f46
Game Objective:
-Normal Level
-Aim for fastest time
-Abuses programme error
-Takes damage to save time
Feature in the game:
-You can charge under sliding.
-Keep brust charging even if take damage. (Different Original)
-Instant weapon switch
Use glitch below:
-Super Arrow scrolling glitch
-Rush Coil scrolling glitch
-Super Arrow Zipping
Necessary Objective:
-Rider Slide
-Super Arrow
First of all,the game is indeed more energy charging for Rider Slide and Super Arrow.
Secondly,I use Boss refight glitch in Wily 3.Cause I don't want to fight them anymore.
Possible Improvement:
I haven't explore death warp glitch in this game.
Gravity:Need more energy charging for Rider Slide,and land on standable site nearby ladder.
Gryo:jump upward a floor of roof with arrow before scrolling.
Wily 3:I should hit 3 times
Special Thanks:
-BaronHaynes's Theory TAS project(29:41) and RTA(WR) in 31:28
nymx: Claiming for judging.
nymx: I had to think about this one for a while. Looks like some of the community members had questions about the run, as I also did.
I understand that this game has a lot of complexities. Since I don't see anything jumping out, it would seem that it has done the job of beating all known records...especially the Theory TAS. Now some might say that it was cutting it close, but I believe that Theory TAS was clocked in accordance to RTA timing...as it should. So this TAS did even better than it's submitted time. Even with the questionable spots...I think it stands good as a base for future submissions.
Accepting to "Standard" for publication.

First edition TAS of 2023 Sega TAS of 2023
Very enjoyable tas. Couple questions. 1. There are a lot of slides using the powerup slide and later on there are pickups gotten to replenish it. Could you switch to a non power slide and maybe get less pickups for it? 2. The blue Jet ability (seen at 22:45) does not get much use it looks like. Not sure how it works in this hack, but could be used more frequently to keep more charge for the other abilities? 3. Surprised the Wily levels do not replenish your pickups. Could a quick death somewhere save time? 4. At 9:20 for that boss would be possible to get some height to keep hitting him as much as possible? 5. At 25:30 boss looks like you exit the boss before killing him. Could you stay inside the boss to kill him faster?

Vanilla Mega Man 5 also didn't refill weapons between castle stages. This hack also does change weapon refill times to be near instant so it's generally just faster to manipulate weapon refill drops over using the M tank to refill all weapon energy from the menu.

1:I would say,Rider Slide(Charge Kick) is necessary for power picking up.It's inevitable.Like Indonesian Artifact and Unique Harassment. 2:If I scroll in 22:41 with arrow.How come get out of 22:45?Yes,I ues Blue Jet rarely in every stage. 3:Not sure which wily levels could be work? 4:I think it's possible to keep hitting him when Naplam was jumping.Too bad,arrow's power haven't pickup 5:It wil be take 1 more damage,and I hit Big pets's body before his's eye closed

You are still getting a Yes from me, but let me see if I understand. 1. Ok so you need Rider Slide for picking up power ups? What if you try using it outside of picking up powerups? 2. If I rephrase this question, could you use Blue Jet more often to get less powerups? Could the blue jet be used to wrong wrap the screen maybe? 3. I was just throwing that idea out there. If you are saying it would be slower I understand. 4. Ok, arrow not yet acquired, and you also do not have the jump jet? Could you jump into its body maybe then jump right behind it hitting it in midair? 5. So you have to hit the body to completely kill it? In that case it makes sense why you exited its body.
