Normally, there's 2 unavoidable health pickups in the Krystal section of the game that cause unavoidable cutscenes. However, using careful movement, I am able to avoid both of them while beating the Krystal section. Note that the trick to skip the first health pickup was found by me earlier today, and the trick to skip the second health pickup (which is less precise) has been known about for a while. These 2 tricks combined save about ~8-12 seconds in a TAS.

A video of the section where I avoid the 2 health pickups can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASnGJQ2sxBE&ab_channel=LobsterZelda

This is the movie to reproduce the following glitch in Battletoads shown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0h4quApjOE&ab_channel=LobsterZelda

I have no idea what causes this. It seems that player 1's health actually goes up by 4 each time they're hit here, and then drops back down to its original value in a few frames. This continues until you move away from the enemy. Also works on the right side of the screen.

This was done on the PAL version of the game.

This is faster in terms of when input ends. The "End" screen takes more frames to appear on screen, however (while the in-game-time remains the same at 96.6 seconds). The "End" screen appears on screen 12 frames faster in this TAS than in ViGadeome's TAS

Test TAS.

TAS of Spider-Man 2 for testing desyncs on Dolphin.

This is my finished TAS of Star Fox Adventures for the category "Any% No Void Travel".

Note that this movie ends on the 1st frame of the cutscene of killing Andross (this is only 10-12 frames later than the last input of the movie anyway).

This TAS plays Star Fox Adventures from power-on up until we reach Andross (the final boss).

This TAS plays Star Fox Adventures from power-on up until we land at Krazoa Palace with K5 in our inventory.
