Too late. It also puts you in the door, not in the building seam. So you would be outside of the building

ti-will_154 found a small timesaver in Chapter 3. After defeating Grubba and going for Yoshi, after talking to Jolene, by going into the vent and setting up the match from the champ room to the left, you can warp to the minor league room and save 3 to 4 seconds.

A comparison video? That would take a while to set up, but I'll consider it. Regardless of whether or not I do a comparison, I'll have an encode up by Saturday morning because I haven't finished the intermission yet. I have no idea, but that wouldn't be helpful at all lol.

For some reason, when using Dolphin 4.0-3557, I don't get the message after the safety message saying "Save data created" or whatever. I don't know why. Is there a setting I forgot to set?

Chapter 1 completed in 32:17.917 This is a savings of 84.467 seconds. Times: http://puu.sh/c25yu/cfbbe915f3.png Improvements: -Shhwonk Fortress 1 buffer skips -Earthquake Manipulation for Gold Fuzzy Battle with bucket and background drop -Hooktail Castle pipe without Koops -Jumping left at the Red Bones timesaver -1 Goombella Buffer to save a lot of time after staircase room Note: The room after Ms. Mowz's room actually has a different layout, so it takes more time to get to the plane panel and to fly. I'll make an encode soon!

Solid yes vote. It is very fun to watch and looks well optimized.

I've had this issue where Dolphin's VI count stays while the framecount goes up. I had this happen in my old Thousand-Year Door TAS. What I did to fix the problem was to waste a frame beforehand. I really hope that works for you!

I felt that an important part of a TAS would be entertainment value. Even if I fastforward the text, the funny cutscene animations still happen.

By using the 1x Goombella buffer after the staircase room, I was able to save 4.2 seconds. Overall, up to the room with Atack FX R and the chest, I have saved 1 minute, 17 seconds from my original TAS!

I'm left with a unique situation if I were to TAS this game. As you can see in the above video, the cutscenes are what makes the game funny and interesting. Every single cutscene can be skipped by pressing Start, but cutscene text can be advanced fast by pressing A. So I would be saving several minutes because of cutscene skipping, the entertainment value would drop a ton. What should I do?

That's exclusive to that one doorway. I don't understand why, but you can clip into that wall and not others. I managed to get an alternative to HP Drain, earthquake, which saves 165 frames.

Randomly, you can either receive items from the audience or from a battle if the enemy holds the item. For example, I was able to get an ultra shroom from the audience. Obviously this isn't useful though. Example, if an enemy holds an item (LIKE THIS: http://puu.sh/bYVlv/e7b0364b23.png) then you can get the item if you're lucky. I did manage to have the Fuzzy hold HP Drain without losing any time, so now I'm manipulating RNG to let it drop from the battle so I can get it. There is a 5% chance the fuzzies hold a HP Drain, and there is a 3.33% chance of dropping it after a battle that has HP Drain in it.

I agree the jumping is terrible. I would play it/ TAS it for the silliness and assure the TAS displays that.

I was able to optimize both Shhwonk Fortress skips with 1 buffer! Right now, though, I'm trying to get HP Drain from the fuzzy battles in order to save a lot of time during the Gold Fuzzy battle. So far, I'm unsuccessful, but I'm determined to get it.

Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo Dasshutsu! Hajike Rowaiaru (ボボボーボ・ボーボボ　脱出!!ハジケ・ロワイアル) is an action video game released in 2005 by Hudson Soft. The game was only released in Japan.

There is very little information on this game. From what I can tell, it's an Action RPG. I thought it was hilarious when I found a game for Bobobo when I used to watch it all the time. Does anyone have any more information on this game? Link to video

I found it is possible to use one goombella buffer to bypass loading zones. This saves 2.7 seconds per time. So I'll save 8.1 seconds from doing this twice in Shhwonk Fortress and once in chapter 2. Although staircase switch skip was found to be faster than a goombella buffer in Hooktail's Castle, this new finding might obsolete that idea. Link to video

I see what you mean, and I have no idea why it's opened compared to the Boat Curse chest. I don't think anything would happen, but that's a funny idea and a good way to softlock the game xD

Really_Tall, your idea does not work because the curse chest is open post-chapter 4. Luigi1er your idea doesn't work because of what Really_Tall said. There's no other way to hit the switches. Thank you, Really_Tall!

That's the only cutscene to reactivate chapter 6. Well...you could enter the train from the station like RTA and my tas did, but youd be getting through all of chapter 6. There's no way to start chapter 5 without finishing 4. Luigi1er your idea involves a lot of backtracking so I'm beginning to think it's not faster. Nonetheless I will test it.
