If at least marzojr commented on this, I'd be happy. 02:18.47 with 14 rerecords, up to the end of GHZ3. Heck yeah.

I found a trick to skip all of Metropolis Zone Act 3. I use the platform to slip down into the wall and use high speed to zip across the left boundary (the speed has to be greater than 16 pixels): http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/672097738/GlitchMan-Sonic%20the%20Hedgehog%202-MetropolisAct3.gmv I also made the animals from the capsule disappear off the screen faster by making Sonic look upwards before the boss begins so that the screen position above the boss area doesn't lock then I can make Sonic look up when the capsule is destroyed so the animals are all off screen. I saved 1579 frames for skipping the level and 84 frames for the animals disappearing off the screen.

For some odd reason, Sonic Worlds games and WinMUGEN either freeze up or slow down immensely. Can you tell me why this is?

For shame, guys. No Sonic 2 Heroes love? WIP up to EHZ, v.06. And just so you know, I do use two simultaneous controllers at times.
While I appreciate the sentiment, you are just opening yourself to a world of hurt when the next update (or the one after it) causes your run to desynch. I am still developing the hack, and while I am handling some sound driver stuff at the moment, I will be adding things such as save games and other teams. There is also some secret stuff I am working on which, when complete, will basically invalidate all movies. As for the movie itself: it is clearly suboptimal. There is no reason that you should not be able to match or beat the times from the published S2 run in this hack -- and that without abusing flight/glide. the Sega screen and title screen are both suboptimal; in this hack, you can just hold start at the Sega screen and it will be skipped at the first frame of the Sega sound. At the title screen you can press start way earlier, and you can press start in 1 controller then press start on the second (or third) controller on the next frame to start the game -- like is done in the S2 run. In EHZ1, you can also start the initial peelout some four frames earlier. It is also suboptimal -- I can get almost sub-21 unassisted after about 10 tries (without using Tails/Knuckles shenanigans to glide over the level), and I am not even that good unassisted. EHZ2 is so suboptimal I won't bother analyzing it.
Okay then. How about an improved movie that only contains EHZ? http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1411138972/S2H%20WIP%20One.gmv Note that I don't use zips or glitches. EDIT: Since you want me to do something else, here.

Helloooooo, TAS community! I am Michael, age 16. I'm also known as WarAnvil. I've been into TASVideos ever since I saw this. I have Asperger's Syndrome, which makes me think differently from a lot of people. I have quite a lot of interests, such as video games (No duh), computer programming (It's kind of related to TASing), school (I'm even in the National Honor Society!), and a lot more. I think I might want to get into TASing. It's nice to meet all of you!
