was pretty awesome
someone give this guy a medal
only thing i noticed was that you opted to walk to the second battery instead of ride the dragon there, but you probably tested both possibilities and found walking faster
thanks for making this
i havent been to this site in a month and was surprised to see this
i am already stoked by the preview pic and will be watching this soon
en route to getting the speed run record of 2:36, i pretty much ruined my enjoyment of the game, but recently played through it again and rekindled its awesome in my book
while i am curious how much you used my walkthrough, i bet you did a great job even if you used it little
props
same feeling as originally posted on page 1: it was fairly well optimized from the view of someone who did this a long time ago but significantly less entertaining than a cornell run would be and something i remember fast forwarding through the majority of
oh and it seems once again other people are clamoring for a cornell run
much kudos will be awarded to someone undertaking that
saw the link to randil's progress and would definitely vote for that over this since it does appear it will be finished
unlike, say, when we shot down those zelda ocarina of time improved runs years back because people were working on even more improved versions that never happened
a couple of perhaps irrelevant comments
1. i dont see the "wild warp" run on the movies list anymore, but a site search turns it up with an entry; how odd
2. crystalis does happen to be the first good action rpg, beating seiken densetsu and soul blazer by one year and gargoyle's quest ii by two years; there really should be some tribute to it here even if not this run
thanks for the encode
i watched most of it and it seemed fairly well optimized to someone who only did the henry quest once and did it eight years ago
i have to go with the general opinion that the henry quest is ultimately significantly less entertaining than a cornell run, but here is hoping this is just a warmup to an optimized cornell run (as the last submitted cornell run turned out to be rather flawed)
anyway, good job and good luck with this submission
oh and just noticed

as this one misses ~half the game (probably the most interesting half, too)
actually this one misses something like 75-80% of cornell's quest although no specific character completes every level in the game (cornell himself only does 15 levels i think and skips out on both the sewers and medusa's cave; also his version of the castle level with the explosive potion is different i believe if he even does that one also)
and you are right on the more interesting part; the only slow level in cornell's path is the villa and MAN is that boring but if you can make it through that there is a light at the end of the tunnel
youre both addressing different questions
the kirk guy is asking about time
the kenny dude is discussing angular velocity
this all sounds like a fun little physics 1 problem for the undergrads but i would rather kick myself than do it
so when i tried this game out i thought there were mandatory levels and then a bonus level if you got enough crowns
i must have missed something
anyways good job
cool, gex and now this
64 platformers make for entertaining and creative runs
hopefully this will inspire the behemoths like banjo kazooie, rocket, and dk64 to be done
dk64 though probably has emulation issues
anyway those possible improvements... how much of a difference would they make
right, so in my second post i mentioned that the closest one to what i was looking for was one of those earlier movies you speak of in your asterisk and i mention which it was; so yeah, the recent additions is going to be generally diesel but it falls slightly short
also my reference to fellow americans was to be read as part of everything after the word "or"; here in the u.s. we have a date system of mm/dd/yyyy instead of dd/mm/yyyy and i did not want to confuse some people so i wanted to be clear on the dates
we also have a 12-hour clock, fahrenheit temperature, miles and gallons, and "soccer", but i do not need to get into all of our strange ways
ah thanks guys for the effort
i remember one of the ones i downloaded was either a mega man 2 or 3 tas
will check that first
edit: ok so i think the one i downloaded over direct connect was morimoto's mm2 but this
http://tasvideos.org/39M.html
was the one i downloaded after arriving here
although there were probably ones published after that when i first visited here i feel reasonably confident that i watched it from here
thanks again
