SM64 Whomps Tree
3 years ago

Hey, pretty new to speedrunning. I'm trying to learn 70 star on 3D all stars on joycons. I know it's not ideal, I don't really care just trying to learn a new hobby. I've learned about 10 stars so far but for some reason i can not figure out for the life of me how people get around mario spinning around the whomps tree every time you long jump onto it. When I watch runs, people spin around to the side they want to jump off and stop, but for me mario has to do an entire 360 degree spin around the tree and then I have to turn him to where I want him to jump. Anyone know how I can get around this? Thanks https://19216801.onl/ https://routerlogin.uno/

@khasinteb first off, I'd ask in the sm64 forums since they'll know the real answer, but if I'm remembering right it's because you're on the "patched" shindu (not sure that that's what it's called)? sm64 version.

Like the one where BLJs are patched, no more "so long gay bowser", and that weird tree thing you're mentioning. The changes made just make the game less fun for speedrunners, which is why 3d all stars runs have their own boards.
