Wow meepers I would really like to see this. Problem is I can't watch .m64 files because, as far as I know,there isn't a modified version of Mupen64 for the Mac. About the checkpoint bomb, I think it is worth it because the aim of the TAS is surely to get as many points as possible by taking advantage of all techniques. Also, a while ago it was discovered by a Star Fox 64 high scorer that you can aim a CUS at the 3 enemies beyond the checkpoint and get a Hit+2 off of them thereby getting 5 points in total instead of 3. I have tried it but haven't pulled it off. Maybe you could try it and see if it works.

yeah tell me about it. I do it on an actual N64. The skill and patience needed is insane. It's a shame most people watching won't realise how hard it actually is until they try it out themselves.

Well it is 3 easy extra hits so it's up to whoever is TASing it I guess. I think Blaze is going to incorporate it into his run. It's not just about how it looks. Surely, it is also about taking advantage of all glitches/bugs and using different strategies to get the maximum score from the game.

Hi. I just came across this forum and feel I can make a contribution towards a TAS in Star Fox 64. Just to make clear, I don't do TASs, I play on a real N64. Us in the Star Fox 64 community recently discovered a new technique in Corneria where 3 more points can be gotten just before the checkpoint by sending a bomb beyond the checkpoint to the 3 enemies on the left. I made a video of it. Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xneVWSIqk0c Of course you will need to die and then restart from the checkpoint like in the TAS Sector Y run. Hope this helps.
