SMW hack: Colon Three
My first ever reznor glitch

Description soon at the forums.

I added the entertainment in the autoscrolling.

For sonicfan Japanese version, bizhawk 2.4

Load it as a movie then as state.

Hello! I am EchoedMelodies and this is my first TAS.

I've been a lurker here for a while. Today, I made an account and decided to try to make a TAS of one of my childhood favorite games, Super Mario World.

I read the resource page and tried a couple of the tricks out for myself. Turns out, it's actually quite easy to get used to it.

I used TAStudio because I found it easiest.

This is a TAS of the first level.

I don't have an encode for this yet, as I am currently setting up my YT Channel.

By the way, if you were wondering, My username comes from a game series called Gaia's Melody. I thought that Echoed Melodies was an awesome name.

Because the other movie ends on the input after the boss falls in the lava.

Lazy Encode:

I finished it!

And guess what? It's a MINUTE faster than the cancelled submission!

Currently making the submission text, as well as a userfile that ends input on the save dialog, like the un-optimized submission.

it's nearly done.

I got a benchmark run from a user on the TASVideos discord of 4:46.

I'm trying to improve my previous userfile.

7 sec IGT (~420 frames) improvement from this userfile!

There is a GitHub repo that I made for these:

stuff for bizhawk

just some ram watch stuff

A TAS of the japanese version of Super Mario World I am currently working on. It's pretty fast, although not as fast as some extremely experienced TASers. Created using Bizhawk 2.3 with the Virtual Pad feature.

My entry to the framewar!

the frame war doesn't stop! 2 frames faster. and sorry for filling the wips section with these

The framewar continues

This is an updated movie with a better strat for my April Fool's http://tasvideos.org/5911S.html

JUMP is a Super Mario World hack.

Just wanted to see how it gets received, and to get any advice or criticism. Hack link: https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=14096

Reupload because the other one has been lost in the masses and I got no feedback.

Original movie: http://tasvideos.org/3019M.html

This is a BizHawk movie (bk2 format) that syncs.

It's 1 frame longer due to how BizHawk and lsnes apply the input, but there's no difference in emulation.

A lot of people have appreciated Mario for being a hero after a lot of SMW "11-exit" TASes where the cape and/or Yoshi are used. So, Mario thinks he can do it with style also without cape or Yoshi.

Originally, this is intended to be an improvement run over Vitor I.S (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8eDZko7Iu8). So far, there are not too many major improvements over this. Now on Front Door.

Improvements:

1. YI2: N/A
2. YI3: N/A
3. YI4: No improvements here, just used the same technique of shell jumping to reduce lag
4. Iggy: Using 6/5 trick to keep speed in the first section. Included more entertainment and not collected flower in second room.

Because it even works on BizHawk!

made my first tas :D

This is a freerun I gave up finishing a year ago. If only I were ten times as creative as I am. freerun was too difficaruto

This is the Snes9x movie translated into lsnes format, made in order to compare better and maybe for console verification.

Length 1:14:58.858 (270376 frames), around 21 seconds slower than Snes9x's wrong time.

Original TAS: http://tasvideos.org/2307M.html

If it desyncs for you, please PM me.

This is the Snes9x movie translated into lsnes format, made in order to compare better and maybe for console verification.

Length: 1:18:33.954 (283303 frames), around 10 seconds slower than Snes9x's wrong time.

This is a lsmv movie (for lsnes emulator) with the correct time (10:00.162) of this classic TAS. Console verification should be easy this way!

Original: http://tasvideos.org/1944M.html

Edit: there's a warning about the movie starting from a dirty SRAM. However, this SRAM is a null file. Therefore, there'll be no desync. This internal SRAM can be removed as well.

I was just spitting the null sprite from random places when this happened.

EDIT 2: This the movie file and the anchor savestate file, Lsnes can work like that. Go to File > Load > Movie and select this file. After that, go to File > Load > State and select this file again, so the anchor state will be loaded.

Playing this movie from the beginning will result in a desync, because I used some cheats in Yoshi Island 2. Those cheats, however, have no influence in Yoshi Island 3.

This appends my SMB movie from =/userfiles/info/19829401117130547 onto a different and better start from Masterjun. This start is shorter, and isn't identical to the one shown at AGDQ2014. In this version, the SMB created uses music from SMAS instead of SMW, and sounds more natural.

dwangoAC asked if someone could quickly make a reasonably fast and entertaining TAS of SMW SMB with lsnes. He also needed it done by today (2015-01-02), and gave me only a few hours notice, as he's under deadline for AGDQ2015. So I appended a quick & dirty play of SMB onto Masterjun's SMW that I created from scratch in a little over an hour of TASing with lsnes in order to meet his sync requirements.

I'm not HappyLee, nor did I even put much effort into this to perform all kinds of crazy glitches and get perfect play everywhere. However, the play it still pretty solid, and is within 20 seconds of what HappyLee's latest version would get on this version of SMB.

I did put some effort into entertainment with interesting enemy kills and near misses. So you might find this more entertaining than several other SMB TASs, even though this isn't a polished TAS. Of course a proper TAS would put even more effort into entertainment, although many established TASers in the past have failed to do so for this game.

Note: This is the first time I tried rerecording on lsnes, so rerecord count is way higher than it should be as I was playing with hot-keys and such, and the movie finishes way later than actual game-play too. The rerecord count also includes Masterjun's SMW rerecord count. Read: Not much effort was put into the SMB side of things.

Encode: http://nach.tasvideos.org/smwsmb-tas-masterjun,nach.mkv

In-game level ending times, HappyLee (~5:02) vs this (~5:18) vs first SMB TAS (~5:20):

• 1-1: 370 - 368 - 368
• 1-2: 347 - 345 - 346
• 4-1: 340 - 339 - 340
• 4-2: 356 - 344 - 354 (time units very misleading versus real-time due to beanstalk)
• 8-1: 200 - 197 - 199
• 8-2: 338 - 337 - 340
• 8-3: 244 - 242 - 242 (intentionally slows down to avoid fireworks)
• 8-4: 317 - 309 - 306

All in all, not bad for about an hour of TASing, not aiming for perfection. Although as a judge, I'd reject this for sloppiness. There's even a point where I didn't realize I wasn't running in 8-1 where I should have, not to mention other issues that could be fixed with an extra 5-10 minutes of work.

What's wrong with this TAS:

• 1-1: Crashes into pipe in underground.
• 1-2: Goes over the ceiling instead of through the wall.
• 4-1: Misses many coins, slows down near the end.
• 4-2: Goes between the bricks instead of through the wall, which further requires beanstalk manipulation instead of being able to enter pipe directly.
• 8-1: Slows down in the middle for no good reason, misses enemies.
• 8-2: Slow start. Then big jump followed by Piranha collision glitch could be done faster. In fact I did do it faster and had a better looking glitch, however, right afterwords I stupidly pressed load instead of save, and didn't redo the effort into getting that part to be optimal in entertainment and time.
• 8-3: Didn't kill enough Hammer Brothers.
• 8-4: Didn't wall jump into pipe, swimming suboptimal.

Lastly, issues aside, this run is still faster in real-time than the first few SMB TASs we published when re-synced for this version.

In this TAS I go to YI1 first in order to get the fire flower. Next I play the switch palace and then go back down to YI2. I play through and get to YI3 and do the powerup increment glitch a bunch in order to get mario all weird. Next I play through until Iggy's Castle in which I hit the item box which looks like a flower but is actually a cape because of mario's powerup status and I may or may not have found a new glitch where you can kill yourself from flying during the Iggy fight.

My first WIP of mario world level 1 and level 2 not complety

if you see any optimization you can tell me

scrolling while eating a berry

that is just a proof that the "credits glitch" in SMW works on near-console emulators.
