Nice to hear from you, finally! How have you been? If you need my assistance, I'll gladly help you out with it. As I'm not currently focusing that much on a project anyway.

In case someone wonder what the 100% definition looks like: All heart pieces. Fully upgraded items, such as the sword, bomb bag, bracelet etc. Getting the boomerang, finishing the trade quest. I think that sums it up... Keep on going Stef!

Taking/dealing damage Most enemies that damage Link can only do that every 4th frame. This is abused to walk/run through enemies without taking damage.
I didn't notice any obvious places where you used this trick. Is it fairly limited in its applications, or is it just really hard to see when watching at full speed?
If you check at 1:08:20 you will see two places where I run through enemies without getting hurt. Apo: Haven't played more than the first level of Return of the Jedi, but if I'll TAS the game it will be on SNES, no matter what=P. Jupi (And Upthorn): Are there any specific rooms you think of? There might be an explanation to why the rooms sucked.

Nice movie, really entertaining =) What next Tompa? maybe 100% ;)
I would like to do DKC any% and 101%, but that's a project I want to do with Arne and the process kinda depend on him. Sadly he has a lot of stuff to do in school (And is also lazy), but we'll see how it will go. I have got a few ideas of runs to do, which I might pick one of them. I would love to TAS Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi once that's possible to do, right now I can't stand all the random desynchs. ALttP 100% has been an idea, might be a later project... Thanks.

Saturn: Because you won't inflict more damage anyway, so it's kinda pointless...

The rooms in Ganon's Tower where you have to kill the enemies is slower than Flag's run. As I haven't got neither the Silver Arrows or the Gilded Sword. It also will cause more lag as there are more arrows on the screen. I struggled hard with these rooms and this was the best I could make out of them. You move just as fast while going on the moving platform as if you would have used the dash glitch (If you are going up or left). In the first room of Turtle's Rock, it was faster to use the block because Link could start moving on solid ground earlier.

Derakon: There is a lot of lag during the fight anyway, my sword spin didn't add anything more than one frame. Which makes the second part one frame slower than Flag's version. Eternal: I have actually no idea, but I'm not complaining :D. Thanks a lot guys!

So far they are all awful... Have only listened to the three first though, but that's enough.

I guess that people didn't understand that I wasn't serious at all. I think that doing all that kinds of stuff is useless and boring. Go by the SDA definition, shouldn't be harder that that to be honest.

So shall visiting all rooms in a dungeon be a must for a 100% run as well? Open all locks and bomb all the walls. You will also have to burn all the bushes in the overworld. etc. Meh.

I'm around indeed :). ElectroSpecter took over this run awhile ago, but he is quite busy during the days. I haven't talked to him for a long time. The run has been remade at least. Not sure how far he has reached... Not sure when, if, a new WIP is coming.

Bah, I need to find at least two more titles then :D, am currently at 15. There are a lot that I recognize, but I just don't remember which game to pick...

I'm currently at the Armos Knight fight, awful to optimize... I'm taking a few breaks from it because of that. Have other games to play as well :).

I have done a lot of VGMQ's when you shall send in your answers in a PM. I can't really see a problem with it at all... I presume that it is because people are lazy or something like that, meh to that.

Games that randomly desynch are hard to TAS. The Super Star Wars games are three examples. There is also a lot of manipulation to be done. I can imagine that some 3D games are hard to TAS, but I have no experience from that.

I still have 6 and 12-14 left. This is awesome :D. Edit: Arne helped me, pretty much said the answer, to 3. But I got: 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15 at least *proud*.

Yeah, that's nothing special really. I'm not using glitches like that in my run, as that would be a different category.

Dez: Indeed I did. I hit it as early as possible all times. So I kinda doubt that it can be improved, that would be if I was able to reduce some of the lag when he blows up... Thanks Flag.

Might be the final public WIP now, but we'll see :). SMV YouTube One thing that should be possible is to kill Kholdstare with two double hits with spin attacks. I wasn't able to do this however. But I'll be happy to redo the fight if someone manage to do it, I'll keep trying some as well just to make sure...

http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=883&start=480 You could at least have used the scroll function... Soulrivers and I were working on the run before. But have it on hold. If you want to try to do it, be my guest. Have fun :).

http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/931306702/ALttP-WIP-DarkForest.smv The changes start after getting the big key in the 4th dungeon. I'm quite proud of the manipulation I got when saving the princess. That one took me a long time to do. As you see, in the end of the movie, the room where it ends looks good, but the mummy in the next is in my way. I'm losing around 10-13 frames because of it. So I'll redo.

I'm currently in the first room of the third dungeon. And am, of course, having manipulation issues. I made the first room perfect, but then it was bad manipulation in the next room. And the enemies in that room are moving while I'm in the first one, so it's quite complicated ;D. I can upload what I have, not really much different than before, when I'm switching computers.

Do you think you can help out to find possible use of any of these glitches? I've tried but haven't found anything yet.
