Script showing on screen speed values

This is my attempt to resync the movie after having killed the first boss 5 frames faster. Due to bad RNG got after using the first Smart Bomb in level 2, it loses time with the locusts in level 3, and ends killing the first mid-boss 3 frames slower. Then the movie desyncs.

getting to talk to the major as fast as possible

3 frames saved

Script I made that shows on game screen direction and speed values of last and priors frames. This will make micro optimizations much easier.

Test in which I catch two monkeys in the first level.

About the route: I'm not sure about the first monkey, but the second one I catched should probably be left last.

About optimization: I got the first monkey very fast thanks to the easy set up, and thus getting that earlier may be impossible. About the second one, it is very likely to be possible to catch it earlier with some precise analog inputs, but I need to know the address of the protagonist direction in order to know how to optimize it, otherwise it would be a blind struggle.

Desyncs during the boss battle due to damage and animation frame rules.

level 3 complete

Based on FatRatKnight's ExternalRadar script.

It's a light script that enlarges game screen to show spawning borders and spawning positions without having to create a new window.

I'm sure I could write an even ligher script by writing from scratch, if you need it just ask me and I'll do it.

"quick" test showing the luck manipulation strategy. not even a level was grinded before the boss, so this is very likely to be suboptimal.

I've manipulated luck in order to get as fewer random encounters as possible, and making the boss fight as fast as possible without having a single Digimon going ko.

stuff

I managed to save a landing lag frame, just to be foreced to have another right after. Maybe there is something that can be done about it.

Resynced movie after 1 frame improvement by Tompa, but the final stage completion time resulted unchanged due to a frame rule.

Quick and unrefined movie from savestate demonstrating the midboss skip in stage 0.

Note that this movie uses a flying enemy that takes too much time to get near the midboss segment in order to get an actual time save.

Movie featuring the wrong warp glitch discovered by Dooty. Also shows off a game crash by hitting a breakable wall from point blank distance.

4 frames saved in level 8

update: desync on level 10

level 16 complete

encode 1 (up to level 7):

encode 2 (from level 8 to Tiny):

Floor entry point in level 16.

The idea was to continue moving to the right and then to the down through the walls, but for some reason I'm unable to continue at the end of the slope.

Note: this movie also features neat box tech, which will get useful for the 101% run.

Quick test for comparing to not using the level 1 cutscene skip.

Quick test that demonstrates the level 1 cutscene skip by opening the pause screen twice.

Now showing both position and speed values.

level 1 complete

Level 1 complete, 2 frames saved (again)

Level 13 cleared; needs some polish

Simple script that shows on screen the amount of frames during which the player X position didn't progress. Does automatically clear the count when you load a state.
