I dropped a movie file to the ZM topic. Also, yea, in ZM you can only move around in the open area, not the wall (since you can only move straight down while inside a solid object), so that might be an issue. The longest room, for ZM, you can get OoB from is 10 blocks wide, and that was the area where I found it to be possible to corrupt the ceiling blocks into a pathway back in-bounds (using debug, so result may not apply).

endhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGtZYyUtl8s I figured out the slope clipping a bit better, so, now it's more versatile for reverse shine charges. Oh yeah, there's reverse shine charging now.
Basically, if two slope pieces are connected, and the slope is facing right, there is a clip there.
Really looking forward to what an updated TAS of either game might bring.
Any two will work, the slope can retain its angle and still have a clip in there.

vba.pause()Another useless glitch: Link to video Setup: Freeze an enemy, then use the diffusion flakes to refreeze it immediately after it unfreezes. If you run off at the exact frame it is refrozen, you'll stay in the air. You can also stay in the air by refreezing (with diffusion flakes) and killing it on the exact same frame. ZX, you may want to see if something similar exists in ZM. Edit: it works with normal ice missiles too, but you have to use the second method, since it's impossible to freeze it while running off of it afaik.
