I'd like to see something like that done with lots of synchronization. Starting levels at much the same time, ending them at much the same time, synchronized jumps and the like.

The amount of synchronized input required in that clip was surprisingly low. Emerald Hill Zone Act 1 was almost complete by the time you gained control of S3&K, then there was like 20 seconds of score tally in Sonic 2 while you progressed the entire way to "Angel Island Zone in flames" in S3&K. And then the GMV ends.

I don't have lots of time to do these TASes. People complain to me that I don't constantly make TASes, so I decided to make a TAS. I know that there aren't lots of synchronization going on, but give me a break... But then again, you guys aren't the ones that complain that I don't constantly make TASes.

I wasn't trying to criticize, sorry if that's how it sounded. I was just making an observation.

Games with slower movement, and tighter control are probably more suited to syncro TASes.

To his credit, he took full advantage of "Cutscene" scenarios just like the MegaMan recordings, and I think it only fair that he would be allowed to. The question is more along the lines of, did you enjoy what you watched? My answer to this? Yes, it was quite interesting, and if more of this developed, I would definitely be interested in watching it!

Added on a tiny bit more of my TAS on both Sonic 2 and 3. If I continue this, I'll progress more before publishing it.

It's looking good. Personally though, I think if you're going to do Sonic-only in S3&K, you should do it in S2 as well. Sonic and Tails in both would be awesome, but I can't even imagine the difficulty of multi-tracking a dual run.

I guess Tee-N-Tee may be already working on it.

First: did you read the description? The conditions in Tee-N-Tee’s video are slightly different. Second: Aglar’s run is not the first which abused the glitch; Sonikkustar also applied it Third: under the conditions shown in Tee-N-Tee’s video, this glitch the most likely cannot be used to save time (because you’ll have to wait for the boss to take the leftmost X position). It’s just an observation. However, I beleive that Tee-N-Tee may really have a Sonic 2 WIP.

Okay, I had nothing to do and tried Tee-N-Tee’s level-wrap in Chemical Plant 1, and the result is only a few frames above 14 seconds. And since it was a very dirty attempt, the actual time in the TAS is expected to be just 0:13

I've tried that level wrap many times, also. No luck...

At first, be sure to get your speed over 4096 (I got about 4600 right after the jump and about 4400 when I came to the left edge) At second, align yourself not to appear inside the invisible wall between X=0 and X=16 P.S.: I still don’t quite beleive this can be done in real time. Too many things that may trick you: perfect jump positions; perfect interval between jumps; ASC; alignment

Like the down scroller glitch in marble garden act 1. Did do the same thing here with the speedy shoe tv-box. Then I did do the tv-box zip that I find out few years back with knuckles. Have a fun weekend! =D I do think this is best time so far from me. :) //Regards DMTM is signing out!

I was wondering why you jump into the bumper at the end. It's kind of looks like it might've slowed you down a bit.

The state-of-art Aglar’s TAS is in a big need of an update now…

This game also needs a glitchless TAS, the run of CNZ2 was probably my favorite within this TAS. As many people say, Sonic TASes become boringly short.

Yeah, I doubt that will ever happen, though I wish it would. O, the holy Upthorn and Aglar!

The Aglar’s “fall of a screw” glitch is really weird. According to marzojr, the big screw consists of 2 small ones, and I was expecting that falling happens exactly between them. However, as I can see from a few Tails runs, it can happen in different places…

I don't recall saying that; which screw you are talking about?
