I also agree. If it was a shorter movie with the same entertainment level, I might vote yes, but the movie is almost 10 minutes long and it is slow-paced and repetitive. Voting Meh.

I'll wait for an encode, since this sounds like an interesting run.

Very nice job! I enjoyed the new route and the comments in the video (which I think should be included in the encode, like in the current SMB3 any%). Voting Yes.

An entertaining and super-fast TAS of a really weird game. Good job, NitroGenesis. Yes vote.

This was a very glitchy and entertaining movie. Voting Yes.

The author's username sounds a little too similar to the username of the author of the UMK3 run that was just submitted. Was it really necessary to make a new account to submit another movie? Anyway, I haven't watched the run yet, but I will when someone puts up an encode.

I think he was trying to manipulate an enemy in Kelpazoic Jungle earlier but wasn't able to. Maybe with all the frames we've saved, he can manipulate the enemy now (just an idea, he didn't give any more information on this enemy or what he needs to manipulate). I'll be ready to splice in The Carnival when jlun2 finishes Kelpazoic Jungle. NitroGenesis, should I do To The Carnival (before The Carnival) and To Jellyfish Fields (after The Carnival)? If so, I can start working on that tomorrow (from a savestate). EDIT: I sent him a PM yesterday asking the same question but he still hasn't responded.

Great job improving the published movie by over half a minute! I don't think the pause trick detracts from the entertainment that much, since it's only used in Worlds 1 and 4, and the viewers can still hear the music in the other 3 worlds. Yes vote.

Wow! Very nice improvement! I was surprised to see the part where they used death to save time. And I noticed the jumping syncing with the music. Easy yes vote.

I thought it was plenty entertaining (then again, I never watched the currently published TAS). Congratulations on obsoleting the oldest currently published movie! Obvious Yes vote! I applaud you for your dedication to finishing this great run.

This page shows the current compatibility of this game with Dolphin and lists some minor graphical and audio problems. According to the page, the game runs almost perfectly in recent versions of Dolphin, so you or anyone else who wants to run it can feel free to do so.

I didn't modify NitroGenesis' input at all, but since I don't know how to splice or hex or anything like that, I just copied all of NitroGenesis' input into a new movie. That might explain my wording in saying "redoing" or "revising". EDIT: Just downloaded TAS Movie Editor, so now I don't have to hand-copy every frame of input to a new movie.

I don't think that will be published. It appears to start from a savestate. ;)

ReneBalow's TAS was pretty cool, but I still think Wak017 should submit the TAS he's been working on (first GameCube submission!).

Well, I'm on vacation for another week and a half, but my laptop just died (so I have no computer). If jlun2 finishes Kelpazoic Jungle in the next few days and incorporates the improvements he made, I will be able to do The Carnival (whenever I can).

I liked it, but after reading some of the comments by experienced members, I agree that this isn't different enough from the published 0 star SM64 run to deserve publication. Voting No, sorry guys.

Looks great! You should put that fight in the final product. I'm looking forward to the finished movie!

I'll do The Carnival, and maybe Dutch Under and the post-Flying-Dutchman battle (since I've already improved by 5 frames in jumping to the Golden Spatula).

Is the game edit-friendly? Because we can then splice in the input after doing our parts. :)
If not, we can always post each finished level for the next author to take care of. Meaning, when NitroGenesis finishes, he can post his movie for jlun2, and when he's done, he can post it for me to continue. How does that sound?

Well, for the Undersea Desert, we will already have the spring shoes equipped, plus the To Outer Town sign is closer to the cave than the To Sandy's Park sign. Here's my WIP: http://www.mediafire.com/?alish9a1xttpoqs I pressed A to enter Outer Town on frame 4633 and pressed A to enter the Undersea Desert on frame 5009.

Thanks for making this topic, NitroGenesis. I wondered why there wasn't one yet. This is a run I made that enters a debug password to unlock everything, including Level Select, and then warps into Dutch Under and beats the game in barely over a minute (1:00.88). It uses jlun2's current fastest route, which includes NitroGenesis' glitch. Of course, I won't submit this, but it was something I really wanted to try and I hope someone finds it interesting. Here it is on YouTube.

Yeah, I just tried improving in every area up to the net launcher in Goo Lagoon, but I couldn't save any frames. One time I thought I was a frame ahead but the bubble SpongeBob blew (to glitch jump) hit a Beach Bully instead, so that killed that attempt. I wish we had the vbm or at least knew where NitroGenesis saved. :( EDIT: Just saved 5 frames from after the Flying Dutchman battle. So the time should be about 6:15.39 now, sans NitroGenesis' improvements.

Very nice TAS. It's clear this game is fast-paced (on Turbo mode) and has a lot of action. Though Ilari said this game is unfriendly to TASing, the run still looks very fast and entertaining. Yes vote!
