That looks nasty. I assume you played this in PSXjin 2.0.2? It looks like an extreme case of Z-depth inaccuracy... A Z-depth inaccuracy means that the emulator fails to get the correct Z-value (how far away into the game world an object) of the graphics so it doesn't know what order to draw them. Which means objects will disappear or have stuff further into the game world drawn on top of them. Did you try to enable various graphical fixes (or combinations of them) in the Graphics Configuration? Does that improve anything or make stuff worse? Also try to enable the Error Console in the Options Configuration and see if you get any interesting errors.

What could be even more interesting is using the weakest character in the hardest AI setting and still beat the AI without problems.

CoolKirby, that is a low % run (I think). It only does each race once and gets to the boss races.

It's a little difficult to tell, but just based on the video something didn't seem right with water levels 2, 13, and 17. A few places going around corners and changing directions didn't seem optimal. Like hugging a wall or swinging wide around a corner. I was wondering if the idea of the Jumping off Ledges common trick applies. Meaning cutting the corner as close as possible at full speed. In levels 6, and 11 it looked like you had to wait for a log to move, and the waiting was done hugging the log. I wondered if you'd be faster getting a run at it and timing it so you get there at full speed just as the log moves out of the way.

I can assist with moral support and feedback along the way if you want to try again.

2. You just admitted yourself that it's boring.

Not only does it look sloppy, but it's quite boring as well.

There are too many air stages though... * In stage 3, you have to pause to get through a 2x2 pile of blocks, because you're up against them before you jump and spin. Why not just bounce off the TNT block to their left and spin during that bounce? * In stage 17, it looks like you take too much time moving far away from obstacles instead of approaching enemies more closely. * In stage 18, you wait a long while before you start firing at the first midboss. It seems you should be able to fire much sooner, take a whole bunch of damage, and then heal at the first health block afterward. * In stage 20, you slide past one piston, but your slide ends too early so that you have to spend a lot of time crawling. It seems faster to walk under the piston and start your slide later. * There's also the issue with missed shots in the air stages that Warepire mentioned.

I will refrain from voting until that bodyslam question is answered.

Actually, they do allow that. For encoders, which you aren't. =p

I'll make a Youtube encode for this when the final input file becomes available.

I just finished making final adjustments to my TAS, but don't know how I can attach it so that a moderator would be able to replace the file. Could I get some help? I really don't want to cancel another submission. Anyways, the new version is 104737, which is 321 frames (5.3 seconds) faster.

To Spikestuff. I will try to update this submission to make some improvements suggested to me by Nitrodon. You may want to hold off on the encoding until that update.

You beat a TAS record without Frame Advance? You seem good at this game. Do you have this game for real? Maybe you could try recording it, and submitting to SDA (Assuming you have a Gameboy player, as I don't think SDA accepts emulator runs). ;)

The run doesn't seem like it is frame precise. =/ Speaking of which, did you use Frame Advance for the entire run, or for only parts of the run?

You missed a spin attack on a shark in the first scuba level costing you a mask (for a TAS this is really sloppy), for all scuba levels you seem to have problems staying in an optimal direction, you often take corners way too loosely.
In the first blimp level you miss shots. In a TAS you do not want to miss shots unless you are going to write something funny in downtime, manipulate luck or use it to increase your speed in any other way. (I.e.: Missed shots need a purpose). Since it's practically an auto-scroller a tip for entertainment is to go for 100% kills and all boxes.
In level 16 you missed a body slam.... Later you waited unnecessarily long at a boxwall (double highjump lets you jump 4 boxes).
