I agree, that's very good. If you go see SwolessLink account, the WIP he post are totally insane. Just the shadow temple with MrGrunz strat is incredible: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa9EVAHHACg& And he post this video this morning and it's also very nice and like someone in the video comment said he "could skip a good portion of the temple" with this :P . http://youtu.be/MP221K2-8QU Now edit, thank!!!

Yeah that someone has no clue. :D The TAS will follow the console route in this tempel. But now you know that swordless is currently in forest tempel and the TAS is going well. :) Btw. you might want to remove that playlist stuff from your youtube links. Simple link: http://youtu.be/MP221K2-8QU

When seeing things like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa9EVAHHACg&#t=2m8s I can't help but think there should be a away to get inside the walls of of the ganon tower escape.

Find a place to hookshot there. If you can do that we can surely clip the wall.

There is an acute angle between the wall left of the door and the railing. Maybe some new jump slashing technique you could glitch inside.

you mean after ganondorf, just getting behind a wall and falling to the loading zone of the castle collapse scene?

Exactly, it's been proven to work with hover hack to fall under and go inside the castle.

What exactly would be the purpose of that? Don't the different sections of the castle escape count as different loading zones altogether? I would have thought that even if you could get inside, you wouldn't be able to reach the loading zone for the exit right away. Unless you mean just reaching the next loading zone quicker, that could work.

No, you can fall down to the last loading zone from the castle, so you skip almost every room except the last one before ganon I think. And you wouldn't have to activate to wait for zelda.

Sadly this section won't be seen in the new "all temples" category anymore, but it's still a nice watch for everybody and I guess it manages to demonstrate very well what is possible in OoT TASing nowadays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VmxetvouGU&feature=channel_video_title

That was cool, you should do one for sword route going down river, be neat to see and useful for run planning, short and sweet too.

really, where's that, I looked before and Looked again I don't see it anywhere on youtube or in his channel. I would be a great video and might be able to figure whether sword skip is faster. "The aqua slide after KV takes about 8s and I think aquad-slide is about twice as fast as side hops, So there's about 8s saved with that one. There's only 3 places where cuccos are hit and two of them are right after they were thrown. So one would be picking it up and throwing it instead of hitting it, the other 2 would be walking forward a little more before throwing. So that'd be about 3s difference if a thrown cucco would work same as a hit one. So if I'm right, it seems the 3 slides in zora's river would have to save about 14s for the sword way to be faster, 25-(8+3)=14. In this RTS, he goes down ZR with no boosts in 35s, make that a TAS and it'd be about 30s, so the TAS of ZR would need to be about 16s for sword to be faster. Does this sound about right?"

The MST/all quests TAS is nearly done. SwordlessLink was doing the Ganon fight last time we talked. As for the any%, MrGrunz started to work on it, but he hasn't made a lot from what I've heard.

the MST one, some people have the .m64 so I guess we are just waiting for final feedback and an encode

Well a way to help start on any% would be either finding or making a video of the sword going down zora's river. I heard it was made but various attempts to find on youtube turned fruitless and the the person I heard it from hasn't posted it so, perhaps it's a myth. This video would be very nice to figure which route is faster.

I'll confirm that the new TAS has been finished for a few days now. I've only given the m64 to a handful of people (mostly close friends and some of the hardcore Zelda speedrunners) and am waiting for the encode of it to be done before I submit it here.
