I just found a new method to activate the Ocarina Glitch, which means I need to redo a bit of the TAS, how much is yet unknown as we are still researching this. One of the uses: Link to video

i was hoping for a wip video but a new trick is way better!
I want all good TAS inside TASvideos, it's my motto. TAS i'm interested: Megaman series, specially the RPGs! Where is the mmbn1 all chips TAS we deserve? Where is the Command Mission TAS? i'm slowly moving away from TASing fighting games for speed, maybe it's time to start finding some entertainment value in TASing.

Was the Ocarina trick used in the old TAS, or is that a "new" trick for this one?

Maria: Currently, that location has no use at all. The reason is that, while you can reach the later part of the dungeon, you are unable to reach the boss without the boss key. And you are unable to backtrack for the key. So the only use of this would be if it would somehow be faster to do the glitch, activate the red warp, get back to the room where you get the cape, go up the clouds, proceed to the Big Key like normal, S&Q, red warp and rest of dungeon as normal. Map of the dungeon: http://vgmaps.com/Atlas/GBA/LegendOfZelda-MinishCap-PalaceOfWinds.png Pokota: The Ocarina Glitch was used several times in the last run too. But we didn't know it could be activated at the start of certain cutscenes (VERY limited). Right now the only real use for this is the previous video I posted here.

Probably a dumb ass question, but can't you use the ocarina glitch you showed in the previous video (getting the boss key faster), to get to the boss whirlwind without the use of the boss key?

Sadly, you can't. While you can indeed walk on holes with this glitch; when you move to a new screen, the first frame has to be on solid ground, otherwise Link will instantly fall down in an endless loope, softlocking the game. And there are no frames before that where you could make an input to use an item or whatever. The only way to walk on holes after the screen transition is if you could put Link into the second layer, which can only be done by using stairs, as seen in the second video.

A couple new (amazing) things have been found since the TAS was released: Compared to the others, rather minor, but still pretty cool: Link to video This trick here however.... it skips the second part of Palace of Winds, and since it also works with the Magical Boomerang, it allows Flippers Skip! Link to video Using the prior trick, you can also skip the left side of Temple of Droplets (Flippers Skip is still possible without this, but much slower): Link to video And finally, skipping Flippers also allows skipping Power Bracelets, as they are then only needed during one section in Palace of Winds, which can be avoided: Link to video

And well over a year later... After that above video, I kept going forward but ran into lots of RNG issues and eventually lost TASing interest in general. Then some new things were found, forcing me to do redo from before entering the mountain area. I kept going until I reach the start of the second dungeon, until a dumb mistake of me standing still for 30 frames was found at the beginning of the mountain. So I redid again and has now finally made it to the second dungeon once again. 179 frames ahead of the last WIP.

Don't overdo yourself. Always try to like working on your TAS. If ever you feel no satisfaction or fun working on it, then take a break or stop. On that note, congrats and thank you for your hard work. I really love this game, and I'm happy it is currently being TASed :)
I like colors
