You know those sonic 2 level maps? Well, could someone rip the maps for the final weapon levels and the space port level in megaman x4 for me? Its not for tasing (no WAY am i gonna tas a playstation game, stupid computer filesize limits), but for something else that my dad's workin on at work. Could someone please do this for me? PLEASE!? I'll give you JUMBO credit! ---- Edit by FractalFusion: Merged this post and the next two into this topic.

You encoded my WIP? Thanks! Also, I'm done with super power island and just have mythology left to go, then I'll have a tiny bit of optimization to do (easy :) ) and then I'll put up the full run!

No, since I want to make EH1 in 0:15 and EH2 in 0:33. My last result in EHZ1 is dangerously close to 0:15. I need to make 0:15, because I need to be sure that you'll not feel easy to improve me when you start a serious project :). So, please, try it all yourself, I promise to give you tips. By the way, did my screencast help you? I also have a feeling that each time from the current published Sonic 2 run is (in theory) (beatable|reachable) with Amy, despite her inability to get so much slope acceleration as Sonic. I am simply bad at deep optimization and do not have enough spare time to brute-force things, but I already managed to prove me right in CPZ1, which I actually beat faster than Sonic. It's not Amy@S3K, where it's way easier to beat Sonic's times. In Amy@S3K Amy is pure speed, and her abilities to spin dash through inspindashable things and abuse corner glitch make her extremely good for speedrunning that game. Just for your interest: most of my runs, including this one, actually have a lot more rerecords than it’s shown in the movie, because I often cancel failed attempts by reverting the input file to a previous state (I use Subversion) and often merge separate input files. (upd) over 9000 rerecords to make one single level… I hope you’ll enjoy improving me, zwataketa, like I enjoyed improving Crramalama in GHZ1 and marzojr in GHZ2 of Amy@S1 * :-p Link to video Only one little trick remains to finally get under 0:16, but that trick is painfully hard to pull off. I think if someday I make it, the number of rerecords will exceed at least 20000 to that day… * both with no success, but thousands consumed rerecords, right ;)
No way ill be able to replicate that. And dont forget, I'm trying to do it WITHOUT going offscreen and left+right, so I guess I can just optimize my run as much as possible but not go WAY fast like you. After all, theres no submitted runs of Amy in Sonic 2, so I don't HAVE to go too fast yet. Don't forget, either, that I'm still new to TASing, so I can't do THAT much yet. |:/ Also, I haven't really watched the screencast yet 'cause my dad wanted me to try TASing something else since I was ... Obsessing a bit with amy in sonic 2. I've been doing Poptropica Adventures DS for the time being and I'm almost done with it, so when I'm done, I'll continue the Amy in Sonic 2 run.

If PS2 emulation is made, I want someone to do a TAS of neopets the darkest faerie. I've seen some of it and I think it would make a good TAS, especially if you include Roberta more often. :)

Remember the team blast charge secret that was put in the game (flight mode>power switch+b simultaneously) for bosses. Hmmmm ... Does it work for metal overload, too?

A few cool facts about the physics: *Rolling as soon as you start moving instantly takes you to top speed, which is still slow, but top speed nonetheless. This trick removes the worry about acceleration. *Rolling past someone makes it so you can't press the B button to talk to them, but you can press the B button to enter other areas. This trick allowed me to auto fire B to enter areas as quickly as possible without accidently talking to people. *There are some people who you have to talk to, and with the delay from rolling, you lose a few frames to start the conversation, causing a problem if you decided to use they "Rolling Start" trick. Therefore, you have to use normal acceleration to start the conversation earlier (I need to optimize this --'). However, there are some people who automatically trigger conersations when you approach them (only people related to the main quest, of course) even if you roll at them, so don't worry.

I know I know, I've put alot on my plate recently. Atlantis Squarepantis is easy for me to real life TAS (figure of speech), but a pain to actually TAS, I'll start it when I'm done with the verification movie. Then there's the KSSU TAS. I need MUGG to send me the movie files and I need to finish myself. Then we have Amy in Sonic 2. My dad wanted me to try something different for a while since I seemed to be obsessing a bit with it. Finally, we have this. Luckily, I'm making good progress on this. The puzzles are simple enough (for me, anyways), and it's also easy to optimize, so I'm confirming that this is the one that I'm finishing first. I'll post up my WIP (it'll probably be the only one before test runs) this afternoon, when I get home. I made this topic at school :P

zwataketa, you told me in PM that you cannot use my input because I abuse zips. May you please show where I abused zip? I think going offscreen should not be considered as a zip… Also I am quite sure that you need some practice with this game, no offence, but your runs are still way less optimized than mine, and instead of starting a serious project, I would suggest you to learn a little… For example, try to get 0:17 in EHZ1. Or 0:25 in GHZ1 (Amy Rose in Sonic 1). Then try to optimize it further. My best results for the moment are 0:16.28 and 0:24.22… I will write you a PM about Lua HUD in a few hours…
well, by zip I mean I don't abuse parts where I go to fast for the camera and go offscreen and/or teleport to a compltely different part of the level. so yeah.

it was my friends game, and his wii died, and I can't 'borrow' his game. also, how would I get a save file off the internet to a memory card?

I made a WIP of this for WST to make him happy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bj8mPVEX9o Actually, I'm working on another TAS right now, so I'm not gonna work on this alot yet. But I set up this topic for later. If you have any tips, let me know. Also, I know that WST made a faster TAS WIP of this already. I'm workin' on that, and optimizing it with Tails following me.

Impressive, I never knew you could somehow skip the spin animation inside Perfect Chaos.
Yeah, it's possible by just pressing down+right/left (or just down) some frames before hitting it.
Yeah, i think i did that once on my 360 now that I think about it

Best boss music in the series. And its not that bad a game (haven't played it but i've seen videos of it and I've heard what people said about it and Flame Hyenard is ANNOYING and sure the controls are a little whack, but it still seems like it'd make a great TAS when a stable PS2 emulator comes.) If you could manipulate a way to get rid of flame hyenards talking with TAS, YOU'RE GONNA BE AMAZING!

good news i got it im trying it with techno the gamma project demo 3, but it needs altered settings.
All you have to do is mention what the setting are changed and the people would change their settings to view the tas. It won't be hard. (cannot remember which windows tas does that)
I meant i NEED altered settings to play it through hourglass, i dont have them.
Keep changing the settings until a combination works, and record said combinations on notepad.
0_o too much to REMEMBER! Even with a notepad! Well, I'll worry about it after im done with a few TASes

It's okay. Just continue the movie where you left off and go back and get everything you need to earn the statue.
Yeah, its not about the movie, im not collecting the statues so that i can collect them in the real run. I just mean, ive had the real game this whole time, thinking i had it 100%, but i was missing one thing that whole time. Thats a little embarrassing :P
