Fast forward to frame 100000.

Rather curious looking crash which seems to be caused by interrupt handlers being overwritten with more or less random garbage.

First 7200 frames are from currently published TAS. The crash happens on frame 8848.

Credit to marzojr and aglar for their inputs (in Angel Island and Special Stage).

This input leads to a volatile state but does not successfully cause a crash (or lead into "wrong character" glitches).

Glitches banned

  • Horizontal Underflow
  • Zips
  • Slope glitch
  • Spindash trough objects
  • Glitches that affect characters gravity
  • No cliping trough Surfaces, Objects, Bridges
  • Respect the Sky boundary, no taking shortcuts trough him

Allowed tricks

  • Frame rules / Minor tricks that can save time
  • Luck Manipulation
  • shortcuts with character abilities ( gliding, climbing, badnik-monitor bounce )

Wip 1 Timetable

Level Time
Angel Island 1 0:41'34
Angel Island 2 0:32'19
Hydrocity 1 0:36'55
Hydrocity 2 1:46'48

Hydrocity 2 needs to be redone because I forgot a shortcut in the first big ramps, the rest is fine.

Inspired off of Aglar's Sonic 1 "no zips" run (https://www.youtu.be/DK3MCkc7TqA) and IntelOrca's glitchless S3K TASes (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL57EDB0404BAFDFE7), I decided to make a TAS of this masterpiece with no zips or level wraps.

There are some improvements, but I will iron those out after the whole thing is done.

Current Progress: Sonic 3 levels complete Time taken to TAS: ~9.75hr

This is a testrun of Sandopolis 2 Sonic and Tails ring attack.

The movie requires a savestate for gens 11b

This is my first time using the userfiles so I hope this was uploaded the way I wanted it to. EDIT: It didn't. I added a link to the savestate above. I also added a link to the youtube encode below for convenience sake.

This is a improved version of my previous Knuckles 100%. Tha main improvements is thanks to joojamoi for improved the 14 special stages thanks to a new glitch to save time.

The bad side is the movie desync in some zones and I helped him in this part and luckily I improved some zones.

These are

Level New time Old time
Flying Battery 2 1:16.30 1:17.04
Sandopolis 2 1:03.18 1:08.40
Lava Reef 2 0:42.07 0:44.14
Sky Sanctuary 0:57.07 0:57.06

Sky Sactuary I lost 1 frame because Mecha Sonic has a very unfriendly attack patterns and with the new times the patters changes drastically, so when SSZ start I do micro pauses to manipulate his attack patterns. It's a shame to have lost 1 frame here, but hey, if I had not done the pauses I would have lost 10+ seconds.

Hex edited version of the submission that does not have the savestate dependency; instead, it requires valid SRAM. You can either use this one or generate your own as described here.

This script adds a more accurate in-game timer overlay to Sonic the Hedgehog series games. It displays the subsecond time on the main clock as well as an additional display of the time it actually took to go from the timer starting to the post-stage score screen.

This includes a breakdown of frames added from lag, pausing the game, and most importantly, post-stage actions that delayed the score screen.

Works with the entire main Sonic series.
