Submission Text Full Submission Page
This is the fastest possible method of getting a coin in SMW. Years were spent to make just this movie, and the result turned out rather well if I do say so myself.
    

Game objectives

  • Emulator used: Snes9x 2.73
  • Aims for fastest time
  • Takes this totally seriously

Glitches

Too many advanced glitches were abused in the making of this to write down here. Annoy bahamete instead.

Nach: Unsupported emulator, rejecting.

Terrible. Working on a 5-frame improvement.

[00:01] <TASVideoAgent> New submission! Go and see #3524: kaizoman666's SNES Super Mario World "Fastest Coin" in 00:00.02 at http://tasvideos.org/3524S.html [00:02] <ais523> "fastest coin"? [00:02] <FractalFusion> 00:00.02? [00:02] <rog> lol.. [00:02] <ais523> wait, .02 isn't fast enough to beat the title screen [00:02] <Vampier> :P [00:02] <FractalFusion> i couldn't even blink in that time [00:02] <natt> fastest coin, huh [00:02] <ais523> I bet it just leaves it playing at the title screen and Mario picks up the coin in the demo [00:02] <ais523> .02 is one frame, rounded to the nearest 100th of a second [00:02] <rog> yeah [00:02] <ais523> so it's starting the game and letting demo-Mario complete the category [00:02] <ais523> nice how you can reconstruct the entire input file from the IRC notification :)

I agree; Masterjun's run is a lot better. No vote.

I was gonna vote yes, but I saw that some frames could be saved by not actually starting the movie at all.. considering the coin will appear without input anyway. So, unless the author will make a faster movie to replace this one, or a different TASer will step up and improve this time with the known improvements, I have no vote meh.

Maybe lsnes and its fancy subframe advance feature can improve this. (This post is half-serious. It would be cool if this feature could be used to improve runs like this one that can't seem to be improved. Unless, of course, I'm missing the point of subframe advance...)
