Hello, honey. I created this TAS back in October 2018 and now begrudgingly it gets to see the light of day.
Take it out.

The Stuff:

  • Bios: SCPH5500 (NTSC-J bios)
  • Hits a copyright (Busy in the Summertime)
    • Doesn't actually lock any region out.
I give up, I quit, this game is stupid there's too many PlayStation bioses, this is the best result I got, take the description I made from the YouTube.
So this game is stupid in terms of everything related to TASing.
This could be the final version, this could also be not because of how much time you have to put in the game.
It's the best version I have currently for the 2 years I've been on this game's back.

How to know if the game is stupid:

  • Different BIOSes give different results.
  • Different positioning changes the next stage.
  • Different (something) changes (something else).
So I discovered a method of shooting, which I basically just dubbed as "Quick Snipe" (Honestly should've called it "Quick Scope") where the bullet's travel won't appear and instantly hit the target. In order to do this you need to be zoomed in, and instantly zoom out and shoot.
This method of shooting is a one frame window.

The shots in frames:

Stage 1 - 29
Stage 2 - 40
Stage 3 - 603
Stage 4 - 522
Stage 5 - 27
Stage 6 - 1528
Stage 7 - 895
Stage 7 - 340 (second shot)
Stage 8 - 780

What exactly do you mean different bioses and different positions give different results? RNG? What exactly is controlled by the RNG if that's what you mean?
[16:36:31] <Mothrayas> I have to say this argument about robot drug usage is a lot more fun than whatever else we have been doing in the past two+ hours
[16:08:10] <BenLubar> a TAS is just the limit of a segmented speedrun as the segment length approaches zero

The timing in Stages 4 to 7 the target can appear at any random time. The influence of the bios + location (and time) of shooting changes the factors of when you can shoot your target. Say for instance at Stage 4. Instead of waiting 523 frames IGT we can spend waiting for the target to show up to 890 frames IGT (20 seconds remaining on clock) And for Stage 6 where waiting for the limo to show up is completely dependent on timing and entering the scene. —I'm looking at very old notes I have on this and I think I submitted the wrong movie... I have a 4699 (scph1001) and I've gone ahead and submitted a 4764 (scph5500) instead. I'm going to can the movie for now and contemplate why I'm an idiot and I'll redo it all from scratch and triple check my notes. Back to doing multiple iterations of this game again... yay.
