Hmm, not too sure what to try, then, because those instructions are working perfectly for me. Are you sure you're far enough past the desync point before saving and reloading the file? I'm going all the way until shots are fired at the boss.
I even re-downloaded the .bk2 I provided just to double check it.
I'm not sure what happened. I started from scratch today and I got past the Mission 1 Boss. You will be getting your finalized judgement today.

I'm running into the same de-sync issue as before. Only this time, arandomgameTASer's sync instructions are no longer working.

Alright, so I'm going to go ahead and continue with this submission. The updated run is now 336 frames faster! User file #639248575541445603
Katina - 70 frames faster with a more optimized bombing pattern for katina skip
Sector Z - Lost 4 frames due to more lag
Bolse - 247 frames faster. The enemy placement was much better after the shields dropped due to better rng, and the improved bombing pattern on Katina left me with an extra bomb to take out enemies faster. It's faster because it destroys enemies instantly instead of having to wait until they crash into the ground like killing them with lasers would do.
Venom 1 - 23 frames faster due to more optimized movement near the end where the pillars start flying in from behind
The intro cutscene to Venom 1 will just have to stay in as a 10 second time loss because I am not re-doing all the favorable rng found throughout the run.
P.S. Here's the updated run with credits for encoding User file #639248576192312759 . I went ahead and changed the encode in the submission as well.
Thank you. I'll continue. I'm going to make another comparison video...so it might be a day or two.

Here is a comparison video. Notice...I had to use "Normal", since there is no hard difficulty for a WR. Yet, this TAS demolishes it on hard.

Oh yeah, so you see… I simply never tried to skip the intro cutscene on Venom lol. Can’t really explain why, though.
Should be an easy fix, although I might have to redo the golem fight since the pillars that shoot out of the wall are rng.
I also have a 20 frame improvement on Katina skip I might try to work in (but I’m still chasing the complete improvement mentioned in the submission text)
And lastly, I see a potential improvement on Bolse thanks to that video. I’m gonna take some time to work on this and let you know when I’m done.
Well, I am sorry to bring up more hardship, but I'm glad that video helped to find more.
I'll put this submission on delayed and will await your return.
Thanks!

Hey WarHippy. Here is your "Mission by Mission" comparison.
Because of this new comparison, I did find something that is concerning. The last mission seems to have something extra that is skipped in the WR. Can you explain that descrepancy?

Thanks for the comparison! But I think that both videos should align on the first frame of Corneria since this is supposed to match RTA timing.
(Even more ideal would be aligning the start of each stage with each other, that way it’s clear what the difference is between each level. But I know that’s a lot of extra work.)
I wondered about that.
I'll get you a second one. It will be later tonight though.

Yes, this is ready. The last couple of edits I've made today were about the memory addresses that control the board layout because I've looked a little more into it and my initial comments were a little wrong but that doesn't have any impact on this TAS. I did make sure while working on this that when I found a solution I would also try little variations to see if I could save a move somewhere or there was some other way through that required less menuing and this submission is a result I am happy with
Ok. Thank you. btw, great work! :)

I'm shocked that 13 frames were found. I just want to make sure that you are done, as I'm ready to pass this along to the publishers.

Thanks for the confirmation. I wasn't sure, but it seemed to be mote than what humans could have done.
So this means your run is even more impressive. Great job on this !
