We knew about this trick, but we already skip directly to Chapter 5 with the Blue House Skip.

Just a bit of an update, I am currently in Chapter 2. I'm currently working on a sub-pixel perfect oob trick for Kooperless letter. The way I did it was about 3 seconds slower I believe, so I am working to get the faster trick.
Also, I accidentally made this video public and decided to keep it public since it only shows a couple tricks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjf85zCrQpg
0:29 is where I need to get the faster trick. It involves respawning on the back seam and falling to the right, under the slide and then respawning again by the letter.

I had to go back a bit because the route that was made had a problem in it. Almost back and I will be entering Chapter 5 by Friday most likely.

I'm currently in Chapter 5 in Mt. Lavalava. I've decided not to release videos since the Chapters are so short.

I was talking to Kage during the making of my TAS, so I've been aware of his work. However I've now finished my TAS with a different route and optimization. It will be streamed Thursday, February 5th at 3:30pm EST here: http://twitch.tv/iateyourpie
EDIT: It has been moved to Monday, Februsry 9th at 7pm EST.

Man, Kage sure is a hard worker when it comes to Paper Mario games.
That was fast, Malleo! This should be a really entertaining run. I hope I'm able to catch the stream on pie's channel on Monday.

Wow - it reminds me of a graphics problem I had when making a Paper Mario TAS: If you are at frame B and load frame A, the graphics output will be first A, then B, then A+2, ..., instead of A, A+1, A+2, ... . The problem is that the frame B will get into the final movie. This happens when I was using Bizhawk, replaying without doing anything else. It also got into Kage's video, too. For example, when in Chapter 8 Mario is about to open the door that leads to the Bowser #1 fight, the screen turned black for a short time, maybe due to a loadstate.
I don't know why, but I don't think this should happen. (Super Mario 64 doesn't have this problem.) Is it because Paper Mario maintains two frames simultaneously?
By the way, Kage and Malleoz, thank you for making Any% TASes of my favorite game!
EDIT: Malleoz's movie replayed on Twitch has this problem too, for example, when Mario obtains the Goomnut before leaving Goomba Village (Twitch time 27:21)
I looked at the live and... Wouaw! It was quite simply incredible Malleo, the work which you have for this game is completely crazy. I did not expect any glitch in the Bowser's castle or still in the used road. Simply brilliant I look forward to seeing the submission.
Do you think of making other categories for this game? All cards or 100%?
I'm planning on working on All Cards in the near future :) this is my favorite Paper Mario game to optimize and play so far.

Would it be a separate category than 100% (whatever this game counts) or some branch that is different and entertaining enough to stand on its own?
Also wow that was quick.

All Cards means you have to 'get to the end of each chapter', as opposed to current any% where we ignore most of chapter 6 (ending it by redoing chapter 5), ignore most of chapter 7 (ending it by redoing chapter 5), ignore most of chapter 4, ignore most of chapter 3, etc etc.
It's a good compromise between any% and 100%.
I apologize for not submitting yet. I've been spending some time on some special encoded with commentary and overlay + subtitles. It'll all be ready by Friday! :D
EDIT: And about 100% it's kinda hard to define, and it would be very long and boring because of Chuck Quizmo quizzes and recipes.

Awesome!

Then let's make a new 100% definition! Malleoz 100% definition =)
Skip the boring parts!
I've seen someone run it in the past, but I forget their name. I highly doubt it was anywhere close to an optimal route though.

For 100%, you could't skip Quizmo. Skipping him would mean to ignore Star Pieces, which would make it extremely arbitrary. There are things that you can discuss if you want to include them or not, but you can't skip something limited where you see the progress of your collection every time you open the pause menu.
But would I watch 100%? Of course, every second of it!
Current project: Gex 3 any%
Paused: Gex 64 any%
There are no N64 emulators. Just SM64 emulators with hacky support for all the other games.

In regards to 100%, there is the option of duping Star Pieces to skip Quizmo. It was significantly faster for RTA because it removed the RNG but it was later banned because of the fortune teller person at Shooting Star Summit not saying you have all the Star Pieces. Either way, with RNG manipulating Quizmo to always be there, it might not even be faster. The old 100% definition was all badges, star pieces, and partner upgrades. The record for it wasn't highlighted because of the definition change shortly after it was set by AnatomyZ. It was a lot faster than the run TheDKX7 linked but I don't remember the time. The new definition is all star pieces, recipes, quizmo, and badges. No one runs it really so it's not very optimized but you can see the only completed attempt here

Duping something is pretty much against the spirit of 100% which is to collect everything, so I don't think duping would be an option.
Either it's collect all pieces, or not. Not collect some and dupe some.
