Here are the maps. If we follow the convention of GOT, the first row is number 0 and the first column is number 0. Therefore, if Y is the column number and X is the row number, XXY is the screen number. The start is at 23, where thor is. (you can click on image to see the non scaled version) without connection between entrances with connection between entrances I love the layout. It is funny how the cave are not so far from their entrances. If I achieve to go out of bound, there will be many shortcuts. Edit : I understood why the sound and music didn't work. It works only when the movie is dumped. Silly me...

Thanks I already founded it, but there is only a description for a few screens. I think that there are a few screens that have difficulties for TASing that do not figure in the hintbook. I don't know the practices of this forum. Do people tend to write a lot to describe their progression or is it preferable to work alone and post from time to time WIPs ?

So, turbo mode do not change the speed of thor. It changes just the display and the frequency at which the keyboard input is polled. Killing the first guy take roughly 6 frames at minimum. I think it is possible to not go to the house with the blue dollar sign on the right (the 4th panel in the video) by manipulating luck on drop out. I have to manipulate in order to have red diamond. The RNG seems to be linked to thor action, and not just on the frame counter. (position, velocity ? The RAM tool of jpc is not really helpful to identify useful addresses) It seems also that the game run at 30 fps while updating 60 fps per second. I should make a map so that it is easier to talk about panel. (Is panel the right word ? Screen maybe ?)

Cool. I'll watch it. I achieve to take only 25 seconds from the start of the emulator to the first frame where thor is playable (with difficulty and turbo setup). Baby step ^^

Hi, I'm new here. Also I'm french. Though my english is not so bad, it may not be very idiomatic. Excuse my french D I love this game and thought about tasing it. I think it is a good game for a first TAS Almost no lag frame Simple mechanism No glitch Clever solution to a few puzzles. (By clever, I mean "abusing bad collision detection") Not too long (I finish the first chapter in less than half an hour and I'm not good at speed gaming) I have a few questions Is there someone who is working on it ? It is possible to disable screen transitions. It saves a few frames but looks bad. What should I do ? Same question for "turbo mode", which draws a frame every two frames. I have difficulties to make sound works in jpc-rr, is it normal ? Same question for music. Regards
