One of the most incredible TASes ever produced. Incredibly good work. I've watched this at least 3 times, and each time I'm blown away by the remarkable level of optimization. Congratulations to all of you. You should all be proud of the great work you've produced. I'm seriously proud to say I ever TASd with any of you.

It's possible to glitch through the door to the mask, so parts of the quest can be left out. Or, if more convenient, you can finish 2/3 of the quest, finish other things, start a new cycle, wrap everything up, then finish the quest by rolling through the door =) I'd love to see a 100% run if this game. If anyone is willing to try, I might learn how to TAS this game just to help out.

To be honest, I wouldn't expect this run to be done this YEAR, let alone this summer O_o

With the two game TAS, would a glitchless, single input, double game TAS be interesting to watch? Basically, It'd be along the lines of the Final Fantasy double TAS that was recently posted. I believe this is what PikachuMan was getting at, but would anyone be interested in this? If so, I might look into actually trying out a test run of this idea as soon as I get my new laptop. EDIT: Just realized glitchless might take a lot of entertainment out because of leveling Pokemon to evolutionary levels vs. rare candies and other glitches. Perhaps a minimal glitch run would be in order? As in, no abusing missingno forms to get the 'dex filled. I would actually catch, and own, every pokemon in the game at one point or another.

Finally got the recording to work. I was being silly. This is a BLJ in the lobby trying to get through the door. Later, I'll try to get through the star door! http://www.mediafire.com/?ymmyiyywecn My first TAS! EDIT2: An Elevator BLJ on BoB. I tried to do this without looking at any reference material, and this is what I got. Next time I try, I'll try to figure out ow to get up those stairs without losing so much momentum. =) This is really fun though! http://www.mediafire.com/?m1gnind5ynz EDIT3: Sorry for all the edits. I forgot to include the savestates...

Okay, sorry for all the questions. If this should go in the Mupen thread, just let me know and I'll take these questions there. However, I'm trying to record me going through the door. I start the savestate of me in the BLJ position, then start recording. I select "Start from Snapshot" I then, start TASing, and if I make a mistake, I load the savestate. My problem is though, when I reload the savestate, and try again, the recording doesn't count it as a rerecord, and just keeps going... Am I doing something wrong?

Oh, so would I have had to loaded the savestate, advanced a frame, then start the recording? If so, I can probably just record again =)

Well, I got through. I did the most BLJs I could before he flew through the wall of the pillar lol. I got lucky and didn't move my analog direction and got through the door. However, when I recorded it and tried to store it on dehacked, it says: "M64 movie begins from external savestate. Rejected." how do I remedy this? Thanks for the help, and sorry for being a noob!

Hey guys, I'm new to TASing and I had a few questions. I'm not trying to be super great yet, just messing around and trying to get used to the mechanics at the moment. When BLJ in the lobby (from the pillar) how do you get through the front door so you are behind it? I keep running into it and opening it. Is it that I don't have enough speed built up from my BLJ or is it that I'm not hitting it at the right place? Also, this is more of a mupen question, but is the only way to get the exact frame you are on to be displayed to be recording? Thanks for any responses guys!

Hey there Kyman. First off, I'd like to say thanks for responding. Second, you are a great TASer and I've loved watching your contributions. Third, I know that sm64 is not a good game to start with, haha. It's mostly that I wanted to try it out, and even just messing around with things is fun. I've been messing about with BLJ the lobby (the pillar. I believe that's a ceiling BLJ) I'm mostly trying to figure out how to control it once I've built up my momentum. I have all the plugins that were recommended as well. Hopefully, I'll move on to TASing another game to get used to TASing more, than return to sm64 (triumphantly) and be able to contribute at least a little! Thanks for the welcome! EDIT: Is there a place I can pick up a save file with differing star amounts so I don't need to collect stars right now, and can just experiment with different techniques? Thanks.

Hey everyone. I'm Pink, and I'm also male. The username can be misleading. I've been lurking th site and forums for about a year, and since I'm upgrading my laptop, I've decided to actually try TASing now. I started today just messing around in Super Mario 64 and did my first ever BLJ. Woo! So, I guess I'm just introducing myself, and also asking if anyone has recommendations for beginning TASers. Any resources you can point me to would be greatly appreciated. See you all around!
