I'm actually playing on Bizhawk with the Snes core, since I was just playing casually. I haven't recreated the bug after a single playthrough again on both Snes and Bsnes core.

https://youtu.be/8Eh_35wrL6A The video above is skipping the Spark Mandrill stage, clearing it and getting the weapon. I don't really know how it happened, but it first happened on Boomer Kuwanger after I finished the Storm Eagle stage. To activate the bug, the Buster bullets must hit an invincible object, kinda like the shield from Hoganmer, and then skip the weapon get part only after the laser teleport visual appears. I actually skipped every stage except for Storm Eagle and Sigma's. Also, I was just casually playing the game randomly.

The forum's almost dead but I hope to revive it if this post could. Haha. So here's a TAS of Mega Man X8 on PS2. This was quite fun to TAS. It's just too bad it couldn't end on the last input that would finish 2nd form Lumine since you have to skip the next cutscene first before everything will roll to credits and to saving clear data options. I skipped the subsequent cutscenes because I think it will just make the video longer. Haha. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJog3x_rXo05DjN0EMsr6pXxAtn2LSEgk

Thanks thanks. The translation + cosmetics is actually just off by 2 frames after loading a save when played on the unpatched one. Well, nice to know that. Also, while I did say I've beating the PS4 RTA time, I did optimized it well, playing frame by frame, removing unnecessary movements, making strats possible only in a TAS. Is that actually what it means to optimize?

I TASed the Cavern of Remembrance run from KH2FM. I TASed the game and managed to avoid desyncs. I wonder if the run itself is okay? I actually did the TAS to beat the PS4 RTA time even with the PS2 long load time and boot time. It was beaten though. And also, I applied a patch called HDfication and English patch of the game. Nothing game changing other than the improved UIs and English text.[/submission]
