This is the same as my previous upload, but with MHZ2 now completed and some optimizations.

Optimizations: A flame shield is now obtained in MHZ1 instead of a ring monitor, saving time(I didn't record how much time it would save) I use the aqua shield bounce in frame 1475 unlike my previous upload, saving around 10 frames I changed the layout of Special Stage No.3 to a faster route saving 26 frames

Potential Improvements: Sonic & Knuckles's physics engine works different when it's not locked on with Sonic 3 as less memory is allocated. Some examples include: In around 0:15(IGT, MHZ2), I had to do a three second time loss since I didn't find an angle to jump to the slope at the right time. I also had to do a three-second time loss in around 0:35(IGT, MHZ2)

This is a work in progress TAS for Sonic & Knuckles with all Chaos Emeralds obtained as Sonic

Emulator Version: BizHawk Version 2.11.1 Original Emulator Version: BizHawk Version 2.11.1 Core: PPSSPP(Experimental) Game: Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc

Note: This is just a test of the new experimental PPSSPP core's capabilities, and it's not meant to be an actual TAS of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. Also, the reason I've listed the game as the "JP ver." is because there seems to be an English patch available for the PSP version of the game. Although for future TASers of this game, I don't recommend using the English patch as it may be of a lower quality than the original Japanese version.

WARNING: This game is NOT made for all audiences. No disturbing content is shown within the duration of this TAS, but viewer discretion is advised regardless. There's also an epilepsy warning for users that have experienced seizures.

100% speedrun(all Chaos/Super Emeralds) played as Sonic and Tails

This is my first ever TAS. I didn't intend this to be a TAS, I just wanted to beat this ROM hack almost normally except for save states in a few spots so that I wouldn't have actually ran out of lives or anything, but after learning how to use slowdowns and save states frequently almost accidentally since I'm a bit of a perfectionist, I really liked the idea to make it as perfect as I could. This TAS took almost two months to make.

Note: This Tool-Assisted Speedrun is very unoptimized. Some levels and special stages such as Hydrocity Zone Act 1 and Special Stage No.2 may most likely need to be redone entirely. The version of the ROM hack used also does not include the Big Arms boss fight and as such, this TAS may be upgraded to v2.5 at a later date when this TAS is finished.

External scripts, macros, TASing tools for Sonic TASes, etc. are also not used in this TAS. I also have no experiences in TASing. I haven't even watched any tutorials. Because of this, this TAS as a whole may need to be redone.

Game objectives:

All Chaos Emeralds and Super Emeralds are collected

Intentional death to save time

Luck manipulation

Time spent dying is counted

Aiming for fastest time in the RTA-IB(C) standard

Second player is controlled by a second controller to save time

WARNING: There are a lot of flashing lights after Flying Battery Zone Act 2 due to the Hyper Sonic transformation. For users that have experienced seizures or have other sensitivities to light, viewer discretion is advised.
