For more information on the above go to our post on the starmen.net, we even have a smv that brings you to Onett just becoming daytime as Jeff from the start of the game. http://forum.starmen.net/forum/Games/Mother2/No-ness-run/page/1#post1730302 I will still periodically update everybody here on the progress, but for now the big news is we have got an smv available that syncs. Our route through the game is shaping up nicely, with the main goal being beat the game without getting a single kill as Ness, killing as many of the bosses as possible.

Hello TAS community. Don't if this will be the place to ask. But it seems this will be the place. My and my friend(a guy who has lots of interest in metroid maybe he has been around here, daltone) are trying to make a run just for fun where we beat as many bosses as possible without Ness. Not a dead Ness. NO Ness. So far our Jeff run is doing nicely, having defeated Frank, Giant step and the Onett police force.... Jeff needs to sell mushrooms for money because he has no atm card lol. We have been trying to get a Poo run going but we have hit a snag. For this we are using the glitch where you have a save game that is about to die from a status ailment. You die on a set of stairs and load up a different save game messing with the game and allowing you to walk through the walls in the other save game. We use this glitch right after getting the sound stone to goto the Stotic club and eat moon cake and get Poo. We have figured out that we can get to the Scaraba(via pyramid) with poo by using the above glitch to travel from Delaam to the Lost underworld (there is a door that leads to the lost underworld in a room that shares a tileset with Delaam in the along the top of the map, near the middle). And from the Lost underworld to the scaraba pyramid(again shared tileset) using the same glitch. Here is where we hit the problem. At one end of this pyramid: the evil pyramid door never allowing us to pass. And the other: Poo gets taken away to learn starstorm, locking the game. So far we have tried taking Ness to open the pyramid door before handing control over to Poo, but this seems to also break the game; when you go to get the hieroglyph(again glitching the f out of the game with aforementioned glitch to do so) it locks after reading the glyph in the summers museum. The two solutions seems like they should be easy to accomplish, being that you can pass so many other barriers and triggers. One is pass by the pyramid door with it being closed, the other bypass the trigger that leads to Poo being taken away. I have no idea how to do either of these but I would love to know if there is anything we can do. We are doing this on console right now but if TA is needed then we will have to settle with emulator. Thanks for any help anyone can give, and I will make sure to keep you updated on how far in the game we get with our Jeff run. EDIT: Our Jeff run has turned into a no Ness run, we have beaten the Carpenter and now have Paula, Jeff and the bubblegum monkey.
