Time to bump this topic! I presume you aren't working with it anymore Squall, am I right...? I tried to do it myself couple of weeks ago, was 17 frames behind to the first elevator, so I couldn't be arsed to do it anymore... I might go for a second attempt though, unless you are working with it already.

What emulator are you watching this with, Dragon? Using the latest or 1.7.2? 1.7.2 takes one frame less to start the game than 19.3. Didn't you read his comments before you replied?:O "Bringing up the "Save and quit" screen allows me to skip the ending message, the one telling me to climb the stairs." I think that was like 365 frames faster or something.

Well... I guess I can post the first lvl of Return of the Jedi ;D. The first lvl can be improved a bit. But in case someone (Tragedy perhaps) wanted to take the challenge.. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/4430/Super%20Star%20Wars%20-%20Return%20of%20the%20Jedi%20%28U%29%20%28V1.0%29%20%5B%21%5D.smv And no, I'm not working with this anymore... Hardly anyway, I start playing the game sometimes but I don't do anything interesting.

Blame me, I made him redo a lot of parts :D. That increased his rerecords count quite a lot.

Very nice! Too bad annoying lag and such stopped you from a sub 4 minutes... Should be able to do it though, hmm. Oh well. Great work on your first submission. Yes vote:).

E_alert did some calculates about the movement speed with and without the animals. "For general travel, Moosh walks and flies at the same speed as Link's walking. Dimitri swims at Link's walking speed (though faster than both of Link's swimming methods), but walks on land slower than Link. Ricky walks fastest, but Link's running is still faster than that. " The text takes mostly 1-1½ seconds to skip. So I really doubt it will be worth it... Just jump off when taking the pegasus boots, that's the best.

Soulrivers has started to make an improvement of the glitched run. How much is it that can be improved more than, for example, this: http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/4317/Perfect.vbm Chef: He also spoke to Tarin from a different location, the same spot as in your run. Are there any more improvements? Something with the nightmare bosses maybe... EDIT: Btw, Chef, that's a small improvement you can hex edit to your run. You can take the sword from a few frames more to the left by pressing U+D+L+B instead of just udb. That will save you a little ^^. EDIT: Lol, my bad about the movie... I forgot that I had already spoken to the Owl before I did the trick. So you have to take the sword, go back a screen and then screen skip from the left side. Sucks. Nintendo had been thinking through this too clearly...

Nice thing with the hookshot to cancel the spin attack. I knew this was possible, just didn't think it was useful ;D. I haven't got any improvements to mention, as I can find... And by the way, you were right about the "perfect use". I has another error in my route. You'll have 0 bombs and 0 arrows in the end.

Looks good enough to me, nice job =). I'm going to help you as much as I can with the later lvls. I don't know that many tricks though, but I might find more tricks later on. EDIT: By the way... NO DAMAGE RUN?! Omg... I hardly think that it is possible on some of the lvls, lol. You can save a lot of time in lvls by be damaged of the enemies. That's one of the reasons why I didn't choose Jedi in my run. That and the long, boring boss fights. Some takes a very long time to do even in easy mode (The boss on the second jungle lvl for example, what a bitch.). But good luck with that... I honestly doubt you will make it, but you'll maybe prove me wrong=P.

Thanks. Phunq has now joined the project and we are trying to that bitch lvl, it's quite tricky... And there's one more of this kind of lvl, I hate it... No, you can't get any detonators on the first lvl, sadly. But I could, however, stood on a better place to shoot the boss. A spot where the rocks hit the gun so they will be destroyed, without me shooting them. But I only got desyncs when I tried it... Presume I can try a little harder though... About your WIP. You can press, or hold, start in the beginning so the JVC box will disappear faster. Another thing you can do is to hold b, down and right before you start the lvl. This will make Luke be ready to fall down through the rock before you start the lvl. But I'm not really sure that it is faster... Nice taking the shield in the beginning to walk through some things. I think you could slide a little more at some places. Like on the second lvl, where you kill a bird and the "pig" thing. You can make the first pig to not appear at all, but you won't get a shield by then though... You could also have slided under both the first pigs on both the lvls. But I've mainly got desyncs everytime I did that. And you take some damage so you won't probably survive later on=P.

That's why I mentioned in the first place that you should have manipulated the mini boss to drop some enemies for you to kill to obtain more bombs. I had thought everyone through quite clear:). Don't care about those 20 frames, just continue. It's no big deal...

If it isn't much of a problem to redo it... You can always hex edit, if it's possible, that will save you some pain. There is after all not a huge improvement. So it's up to you=P.

Btw... You are using Ricky to jump through the snow, correct? I've mentioned it before, just wanted to remind you.

Yeah, indeed it's looking good. I keep making him upset of me by finding improvements :). Too bad for him, muaha. He can solve it with hex editing though. Keep it up man!

Sure you couldn't get any hearts from the bushes or the "snow"? Oh well, I guess you could have soe use of the heart later anyway... So go ahead:).

I know you can manipulate the Jawas to get what you want, old news ;). And yes, it's going to be annoying with all the desyncs all the time. I'll just play through the same thing a million of times until it's good =). So far no luck with lvl two. First I need it to make it fast, then avoid desyncs, hmm... Oh well.. BoltR: Isn't 9X 1.5 already out? Thanks for the comments so far=).

Anaconda: I am using the (!) rom. But it's sometimes called 31438 instead. It's the same rom. I did wait once in the end to avoid shooting the rock. But that means I will be hit of it later. And I couldn't take anymore hits than I have. That would be if I collected more hearts during the lvl... But I can't be arsed to make the lvl once more... Thanks for the comments, and time for lvl 2.

After 1000+ rerecords at the boss, it's finally dead. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/4153/Super%20Star%20Wars%20%28U%29%20%28%21%29.smv I know that the boss fight can be improved. But I had to make him a bit slower to avoid even more "lovely" desyncs...

Yeah, manipulating is a bitch... I can manipulate the boss to show up just as the first life meter goes up. But that never happens in the movie... so I'm a bit annoyed. I improved it a bit to the boss. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/4101/Super%20Star%20Wars%20%28U%29%20%28%21%29.smv

I won't change to hard mode, it's going to be much less entertaining. And about the other two games; if I can make this one good, I might give the other ones a try (Starting with Return of the Jedi.). I know a few tricks on that game. Back to the run. I haven't played for a few days now. I've improved some parts in the first lvl and am trying to make the boss appear, but it's still the same problem. I'll make it sooner or later I hope.

Have mercy, lol. I suck at the game, and if I choose Jedi mode I'll only take more damage during the run. Which will make it a lot slower, and I don't think it's "worth it"... Have remade a part where it desync, which caused a desync at another spot. Hopefully I'll make the first lvl sooner or later...
