So... this time. I redo this TAS and finished now. Then I'll show you a wonderful video ^_^ Please sit back and enjoy it.
This run beats Got4n's 631 frames. About 10.52 seconds.
Emulator used: Dolphin 4.0-6331

Some necessary settings:

  • Dual Core: OFF.
  • Idle Skipping: OFF.
  • DSP emulator engine: DSP LLE Recompiler.
  • DSP LLE on thread: OFF.
  • Use EURGB60: OFF.
  • Wiimote configuration: Extension -- Nunchuk
  • Be sure you HAVE RUN game before running .dtm after openning dolphin. There is 1 more lag in first game running.

NSMBW is my favorite SMB game created by Nintendo. Most playable. Many power-ups. Level map design is funny. Enemies and character's action is realistic. And effects are realistic, too. Also, there are many enemies met in old games appearing in this game. Even it's better than newest game - NSMBU, in my opinion. So it's a must-play Mario game for Mario fans!

About Dolphin Emulator:

  • Hope editor will add RAM search & RAM watch. Cheat engine is inconvenient... My computer crashed many times...
  • Looking forward to a quicker running speed. I prefer a full running speed to 1080P!!!
I don't want to use dolphin any more! Just in one word, annoying!!!.

Some RAM addresses:

AddressDescriptionType
8153B8C8X speed -- compare with map
Always use this one.
Float Big Endian
8153B8ECX speed -- Mario's own speedFloat Big Endian
8153B8CCY speedFloat Big Endian
34153B8B0X positionFloat Big Endian
34153B67CY positionFloat Big Endian

Improvements:

Because of emulation difference. I just show you how many frames are saved in each level. That difference causes different level file's loading time. But same in gameplay.
These results of comparison come from In-Game timer.
For example, in 1-2,
Mine: timer became 456 at frame 11617. And I touch the flagpole at frame 11627. So there are 10 frames between them.
Got4n's: timer became 456 at frame 11381. And he touches the flagpole at frame 11400. So there are 19 frames between them.
Results: 10-19=-9 frames. 9 frames saved.
For level-by-level videos, visit [/Forum/Topics/8743&start=225|New Super Mario Bros. Wii] please.
If someone doesn't think this checking is accurate, you can check it yourself. Dolphin is too much annoying for me. I don't want to use it with TAS any more.
LevelFrames SavedComments
1-128Get 2nd power-up, mainly to keep 4+ speed for a longer time.
1-29Running on the swinging platform will have 3+ speed.
1-33Improvements mainly come from corner boostings.
5-159Many small improvements.
Mainly come from jumping out of the vines better.
Pressing A to skip "World 5-1" text doesn't work here.
5-Mini13Limit control...
5-359Reduce speed to wait enemy instead of flying...
5-Tower138
110+28
Jumping instead of flying many times.
Jumping speed is bigger than 3.5; Flying speed is 2.5
5-487+Better control.
Got4n used longer time to enter pipe in view 2. But that saved some in-game time. I cost more in-game time to save movie time by entering the pipe later.
5-Ghost6Catching the wall gives Mario 1+ speed.
Sorry for little corner boosting. Much of them failed...
8-118It's so hard for me to control Mario flying very well.
8-246Better route. Better strat. And Better control.
8-719Use triple-jump to go across a longer distance.
8-Ship-30I beat 10+ frames before entering Bowser Jr's Room. But lost longer time on boss fighting due to uncertain reasons.
8-Final176Jumping is faster than flying. And it helps me to keep speed after that. And better strat at the last.
Maybe I save or lose some time on map. Different RNG lead to different enemy's movement. And it leads to different time. But I didn't care about it this time. Because this new emulator has a different emulation. So it's not so important...

Loading times are longer because of the more accurate emulator version.

How much desync is there? If you trim off one second from the beginning of the audio file, and then merge it with the video, is there still A/V desync?

Video running speed is faster than audio running speed. They are sync at the beginning. But audio becomes slower and slower. If I cut it, it'll desync at the beginning.

I'm sorry to you if you do care about it. I didn't think much about it. When I start to TAS the game, I've run game. And I found that difference when I replayed my run.

That was a really fun watch! I love watching NSMB runs because of the very minor optimizations that get made to save a few frames. It's neat because the game doesn't have too many useful glitches to save time (as far as I know).

It's exciting to see some real optimization here! I was a bit surprised that the current publication was even accepted after Soig's first submission had been rejected.

I'm sorry but I didn't know the time was faster due to emulator differences. I change my mind in voting then and I give this movie a yes vote instead. I will remember that for next time.

I don't think I'm ready for another never-ending publication ride... shivers Apart from that, I'm gonna vote Yes. If anyone finds the A/V desync annoying, try duplicating the tab, and leaving an offset to compensate.

I dumped video and audio, again. And I've used goldwave to correct audio's whole length. (Or playing speed.) And it seems sync this time. Reuploading...

I am actually getting final encode up together with a logo and text and everything. Once that is encoded, I will upload it to my YouTube channel.
