Hey, G.G. Shinobi II :The Silent Fury episode 5, return to the building ;) Step five - Return to the building Comment : I can avoid the last green ennemy before the elevator but it seems impossible to avoid the others, and i don't know why because the first green ennemy start from a same height. I try a lot to avoid the others in the same way, but i fail to do it. If someone manage to do it please tell me. Enjoy If you have advices or suggestions, don't hesitate

Do you know it ? You can force this type of ennemy to be in a wrong place ! ;) There are items hidden in water. A shinobi don't need to breathe but can't swim ! ;) You think you can't pass ? Free your mind ! ;) There are items hidden on the top of the castle, they appears only if you kill four specific ennemies ! ;) There are items on the left and on the right of the castle, find them by using a blue ninjutsu ! ;)

I have realised that i can gain lot of frames in boss rooms by putting the shinoby in a better place after the boss's defeat, i gain 40 frames just in the first boss room !! I try to change this with hex-editing, but i always have a desynchronisation !! I can't believe i haven't seen it before ! I spend much time trying to solve this problem of desynchronisation, and I think now that the best way is to remake step 2 and step 3 ! Ram adresses to optimise boss room : C0F0 : Information about horizontal position of the shinoby (C14F : Information about horizontal position of the shinoby) The best position of the shinoby change, and i don't know why ! The better position is always near to C0F0=54 (Just a note : The Controller data begin at the 62F2 adress)

I see in another topic that it was possible to have a ram watch with Dega 1.16. I installed Python program and... it works ! But i don't find essential values in the RAM, for now.

Hum, i find something interesting for my problem of "Start from a save state" ; with the Dega emulator, the first input in the controller data format of the movie files (.mmv) should start at 00F4, but in all my movie files, the first input always start at 62F4, and i try to just copy and paste at 00F4 but the movie can't be played after that. Please help !

I have done the first step of the TASpeedrun, the building level, here is the movie file : First step - Building level done Outch, start from a save state again ! i have to work on how to start from reset ! maybe i can do something with the HxD editor. Here is how i have proceded : I start the frame per frame mode, i click on reset, and i then start recording. Is someone can help me to get a start from reset ? Because i don't know how to proceed ! I try many ways but i always have : Start from a save state ! (I don't have a "Start recording from reset" option in Dega 1.16)

Here is a .mmv file to let you see an overview of the levels's order and how levels are done. This is not optimize at all, it is just to let you see if there are others better ways possible, and to see an overview of what it would look like. I have not specified, it would be a "no damage" TASpeedrun, because i think it is prettier to see for this game. The way to go I know there are lots of optimizations to do, the aim of this file is just to know if this is the good way to make the game the fastest as possible. (Oups, it seems that my file start from a save state ! I will try to change that for the next one)

Here is the better way i find, for now ;) : First level : Building Going to the boss room as fast as possible, taking a ninjutsu on the way, spending some frames to destroy a crate near to the boss room in order to use the red ninjutsu later in the game. Killing the boss. Yellow ninja unlocked. Second level : Canyon Using the yellow ninja in order to go to the cristal room. Taking the ninjutsu in the back and left of this room. Taking the blue cristal. Going as fast as possible to the boss room. Killing the boss. Blue ninja unlocked. Third level : Castle Using the yellow ninja in order to go to the cristal room. Using a blue ninjutsu to take the pink cristal. Going as fast as possible to the boss room. Killing the boss. Pink ninja unlocked. Fourth level : Building Using the blue ninja in order to go to the cristal room. Taking a ninjutsu on the way, in the yellow cristal room. Take the yellow cristal as fast as possible. Once the yellow cristal taken, using a red ninjutsu to go to the boss room. Fifth level : Factory Taking the ninjutsu in the up and right of the "dark room". Using two ninjutsu to skip a good part of the level, in order to go to the cristal room faster. Using the pink ninja to go to the dark cristal room. Taking the green cristal. Going down and go to the boss room as fast as possible. Killing the boss. Green ninja unlocked. Sixth level : Ennemy's base A room - B room - C room : Take the bottom door - E room - G room : Take the upper door and beat the boss - M room, using only one blue ninjutsu - Q room : Take the upper door - G room and beat the boss - O room - Q room : Take the bottom room - room S : Using a yellow ninjutsu to save time ; Taking the right door - T room - U room : beating the ennemy's ninja one by one then beating the last boss. If you have any ideas to go faster, don't hesitate ;) ! Before i begin the optimisation work :). If you have tips or advices, it would be great too.

Hi ! I am new on this forum and i am french so sorry if my english is not correct ! The G.G. Shinobi II: The Silent Fury !! This game was my favorite on the game gear console (the first opus : G.G Shinobi was very good too ! ). I played it a lot in my childhood, and i loose so many times in the last level, the "Ennemy's base" ;). This game was very cool for the game gear. I played it a few month ago, and i realised that it was not so difficult ! I am surprised not to see any tool-assisted-speedrun of this awesome game ;) . I would like to make it but i will need help because i have never done any TASpeedrun before. I learn how to use the Dega emulator (Dega 1.16), and i have the Shinobi II - The Silent Fury (U) [!] file. I have made some speedruns of the game to find the better way. It seems there is no RAM Watch for the Game Gear Emulator, am i rigth ? If it doesn't exist, should i try to make one without it ?
