http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/16123337217761989 Link to video Here's an encode of your WIP. Pretty decent I didn't know it was an autoscroller. Could definitely get into the first door faster I think if you didn't get hit by the bat.. or kicked it or whatever jack did.

Seems to be no change in height. Pressing earlier rather than later saves frames (obviously). Example pressing A at 53671 lands you at a height of -18.588 on frame 53714, while pressing A at 53985 lands you at the height of -18.588 on frame 53716.

Just keep cheking with a single input rhen see if there are any results from just that and repeat. Also you could turn on one or two frames, then go into running direction(see if bread man turns and runs).. See if you can turn before it occurs visually

Alright I just made the leap over the wall from the palm tree! Bad news bear is that you land into the cutscene from where I am (there was only a 2 frame window to jump the ledge). Will try from another spot now.

Can't really use old DTMs with new revisions, I think the latest has some changes to DTM as well.

Looks pretty neat! On some of the drives, hitting trees appears to slow you down a little? Did you find it was faster to drive through them instead of avoiding them?

Link to video 4.18s faster! I am now going to spend the rest of the week working on seeing if I can get up the palm tree, if I cant get it by Sunday then I need to move onward.

It looks to me like you are high enough there, and just need to be further to the right. I don't really have any suggestions I just know I've managed it.
It's not possible to move position while jumping between tree and wall ya? I've tried lots of set ups to get it to work. I went ahead up until the King fight but I'll go back and do more and more testing.

So far with about another 100 attempts i cant seem to get high enough to jump over, the highest ive gotten makes me hit the wall where the gate is. Ill have to see if i can be lower on the tree when i start jumping so that i can possible get a higher jump off the palm tree. This has been the highest I could get so far. In this spot I am closer to the ledge from the palm tree but I am too close because it triggers the cutscene.

Link to video Decided to go back and fix the stairs after activating defense mechanism. Saved 1.19s with rolling and finally optimizing the rewind glitch to perfection. Next up is gonna be the palm tree glitch.. ugh haha :p

I always forget about PoPPro's video -_- sigh. Well that's okay. The timer was actually set to the same time, youtube cut my video short. It was just to show I got a 1.29.36 from the end of the cutscene to the start of the cutscene after killing the king. This was just a rough draft kill. The first skeleton fight I took about 5 redo's to get it to where I like. This one will probably be the same. My first attempt at this fight I actually got 2 double blue/purple torpedo kills so I definitely need to do that, so I'll go back and fix the corridor beforehand once I see what you're talking about Asco P

Seems like theres a few points where the man just stops moving, right at the beginning and once he lands on the wall. I really wish tas input could have wiimote implmented

Man I need to check this thread quicker lol. Currently I'm in the next area where you trigger the switch to climb up the platform that comes out of the wall(past the palm tree skip). I'll go back and see if it's a big difference. More than likely I will just put it as a Sidenote for the next person to improve my run haha. Edit Alright I tested to see if the cancel glitch works on Dolphin and it doesn't -\ So I guess the emulator doesnt emulate it yet.. So now onto working on seeing if i can get higher on the palm tree. that palm tree angle is the worst to figure out lol.

Fantastic job so far. On top of doing the rewind trick closer to the wall which I know you've already managed, you should also roll when you land at 14:10. You do this by holding down the jump button if you didn't know.
5 Frames saved by rolling, only bad part about the roll is that you roll forward only(ive been trying to roll towards the door but no dice).

Te quad battle sounds awesome! Can someone do a YouTube encode of it? Nico is a jerk on mobile.

I had added published movies to show that some of those on the wish list are done. And included the thread link as well. The wish list is super repetitive. There does need to be a cleaner way to do the wish list. Maybe something with a voting system ?

The temp encode's audio is desynced. It's subtle at first but looking ahead it only gets more noticeable.
Exactly why its a temporary encode. It was using an older emulator I know nothing about and I wanted people to see his run. When the actual publication comes around, itll be synced up.

for my own reference, there is a 34 frame gap between first roll input and second roll input A on frame 24 (rolling), A again on Frame 58 to start next roll Link to video After completing this area, near the middle of the puzzle I realized rolling more often was faster by a good amount of frames. So I will be going back through and i'll show a comparison video, it wouldnt be too much faster than this video since I did start rolling about 40 seconds in.

Would somebody TAS Worms 3D for Gamecube anytime soon? Here is gameplay video: Link to video
Worms Armageddon for n64 is another choice too. I feel like someone who wants to TAS either needs some heavy math lua script to calculate the trajectory

I remember in one video accessing the bottom through bed ceiling instead of taking death. Can't decide which one is faster.
Might continue more tonight on the next area, but I checked through the sda forum and could not find any videos of the bedroom chamber where someone uses the bed roof. I know I've seen one too. maybe I skipped over it.
