Comments

Warning! This movie fails to beat the current published input time, due to playing on the new emulator, Bizhawk. According to Spikestuff, this movie is 32 frames faster over the cancelled PCSX movie. Comparing to the published run, this movie is 02:08.31 faster than the published run. This TAS has been going for quite some time now and Dooty has been stuck with a missing ring since 2014. In October 2015, I discovered a way to bring the ring back to life, by simply reseting the screen closer to the problem. There are also a lot of changes done since the previous published run to speed things up along. Since 2014, a new trick called the Multiple Backwards Jump was discovered by Shunpuk. Dooty managed to find ways on accessing secret areas faster. Although this saved some time, this caused the missing ring to disappear. Every rescue has been improved over the published run. I hope you all enjoy my run and I will look forward to the improvements in the Hourglass emulator so I will be able to TAS New 'n' Tasty.

Other comments

I would like to thank Dooty for all his efforts in trying to TAS this update which he didn't quite succeed. I need to thank once again, Sligfantry (for finding the DDg and the Stop 'n' Turn and Backwards Jump Glitch), Yartitana (for finding the Quick Portal Closure glitch which was the reason for making this update) and Shunpuk for finding the Multiple Backwards Jump glitch which make our run faster on PCSX but slightly slower on Bizhawk due to accurate loading times.

adelikat: Replaced movie file with one that trimmed 408 frames of unnecessary empty input from the end of the movie.
Samlaptop: Hope a judge would like to judge this soon.
Samsara: Yeah, okay.
Samsara: Accepting as an improvement to the published run.
Spikestuff: I don't know why I'm publishing this, but I do know I need to get this out before both Bubsy and Domino... and this is coming from the publisher with the second slowest internet... Publishing.
Spikestuff: Dangit feos, I know you said it in IRC, but (sends the rest in a message), blerpy, derpy, nerpy. QUACK
feos: Publishing.

I'm not sure how it corrupts memory but I should change it to something like "corrupts ring to save time." or something.

I don't know how can one corrupt a ring, sounds like it's just a glitch. Memory corruption means you know what addresses you corrupt and how exactly you do it, which isn't the case here.

I am thinking about updating any% Oddysee and the rest of the Oddworld TASes to Bizhawk to have an accurate time for all these runs. Any% Oddysee won't take me that long to make for sure.

If you don't have what to improve there, it won't get accepted.

The only Abe TAS that's left to make is Exoddus maximum casualties which I can do on Bizhawk.

Nice to see this one accepted. For a screenshot suggestion, it would be nice to have of Abe performing one of the latest glitches. Maybe a quick portal closure or a backwards jump or something.

If you have a frame for it it can be used, yeah.
effort on the first draft means less effort on any draft thereafter - some loser

Uh right, can't pub before you tell the exact frame, otherwise it's all ready.

I don't have access to my PC at the moment but the best I can say is door 2 paramonian temple on the frame where Abe does the backwards jump into the secret area.

That's quite a dark picture for a page with white text background... how about a slightly brighter version?

Um, it's what it looks like in the most accurate PSX emulator in the world, so...

Comparing with Eek! The Cat - it not even dark at all.
I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Current projects: NES: Tetris "fastest 999999" (improvement, with r57shell) Genesis: Adventures of Batman & Robin (with Truncated); Pocahontas; Comix Zone (improvement); Mickey Mania (improvement); RoboCop versus The Terminator (improvement); Gargoyles (with feos)
