I wanted to know what was the highest point at the Pole Vault we can reach, but the game was broken before with the score and the vertical bar. I reached 21.2 At the end of the movie, it's the address of the score which softlock the event. I let you work on it if you are interested.
I DON'T REACH 21.2 M AS FAST AS POSSIBLE !
I don't know if a TAS of this game could be good or not. If yes, I don't know what could be the goal of the Decathlon (all events of the game)
  • max score? Since this WIP, I think it's not a good idea....
  • fastest time? I have a file for each event of the game but the slick stick controller allows us to be faster on this game and it isn't emulate on BizHawk.
I don't show all the file because it's useless :
  • 1rt clip : beginning of the score bug at 5.8 meters.
  • 2nd clip : beginning of the bar glitch ( height is defined after by your Y position ) at 7.8 meters.
  • 3rd clip : end of the movie at 21.2 meters with the softlock of the event and a weird glitch after.

Seeks to reach the highest score possible by getting the maximum points per event. The pole vault is actually so high in the end that the score counter rolls over twice!
Final time is actually slightly inaccurate due to me recording after the final input was made.
On FSVGM's advice I'm waiting to remake this on the next version of BizHawk to correct any errors that may have been caused by the emulator.
