1. This does not aim for fastest ingame time 2. The current submitted and published any% does not aim for fastest real time 3. The current low% does not aim for low%
I think the best solloution would be when the NBMB run comes along, would be to obselete the low%
since the current ratings seem to suggest that its significantly less entertaining to watch compared to the current any% and 100%.
There is only one way to decide which movie gets published: CAGE FIGHT!
Voted yes on this movie, real-time beats in-game time (to me)
Random shots are fired to allow for a new momentum trick that I figured out. After exiting a morphball or a shinespark, fire your weapon and and hold down+reverse. This will allows samus to clear ledges that otherwise would not be possible.
I hope you keep up with more of these runs (especially if it's a low % run to get rid of that old old publication).
Well, I never tested that myself, but I think one of the SM-TASer mentioned it to be faster in your previous run, so I just assumed it was true at first.
EDIT: The improved Torizo skip is approximately 55 frames faster.
Try shooting before you pick up the item.
but it isn't beneficial from a timesaving standpoint
Boy that Super Metroid run JXQ did a year ago sure does suck, right? Missed frames everywhere, all these easy™ strategies ignored, maybe even on purpose(!), a far cry from perfection no doubt.
Botwoon exit is 2 frames slower than what I did in the any% (wonder why you didn't use my strategy from the vid there).
Use a damage boost from the flamer instead of the unmorph tech when passing the PB-shortcut in the green bubble room after LN.
Torizo skip saves only 18 seconds, unfortunately.
Actually, JXQ's run is pretty full of exactly that: loose frames.
JXQ's run was very tightly optimized, I wouldn't expect to find too many "loose" frames floating around.
While I still prefer real-time-runs, this is just 5 real-time seconds slower than hero's old run, and it incorporates so many new tricks and shortcuts that I consider it truly superior. Thus voting yes for publication and obsoletion of hero's run.
..so, what's this thing I hear about a 100% run? do you plan to aim for ingame-time again?
Cpadolf, I've seen your skill progress and it's very impressive. Of course, without my perfect demos to study from, you would not be same fast, but it's ok to copy my work, it's what TASing is! Respect! (Just wanted to clear up confusion.)
I am so loving this run. Excellent stylistic choices, excellent optimization. I'd give it 10/9 any time.
