You have to factory reset your switch. The switch keeps a flag for the highest version the game was on, and factory resetting is the only way to circumvent this with a vanilla switch.

they're talking about doing it as a TA, but the run isn't really long enough to warrant TA rules, so IMO it's not neccessary

That is pretty pointless, as loads are consistent, the only thing it would do is allow 1.0 to be a viable version again, and that would probably make 1.0 the faster version. Additionally, timing loads is super tedious in a game that can't automatically time without loads. It would take the verifier(s) even longer to be able to get through runs.

what other timing would you propose to use?

same process as getting 1.0.0 but with a different cartridge. You need a 1.1 cartridge (serial number ends in 001) then factory reset switch and don't update the game. Otherwise, it can be used via a modded switch, however this is specifically not allowed on the leaderboards.

watch the wr for the category. that is all there is

it isn't a theory, it's literally cheating. we have no way of doing infinite cap bounces in the game. our only speculation is that we need to find an infinite height glitch.

the odyssey's existence in cascade isn't bound to scenario. something like that is unrealistic anyway

With our current knowledge: Cap wire: will likely never be skipped. In order for the Odyssey to spawn in Cascade (and to like, progress the game,) you must take the wire path to the loading zone while in the capture. Ruined wire: current best theories are that if we could get an uproot into ruined somehow we could use cframe origin warps to warp to the arena (this is proven to work), or an infinite height glitch to go up. Bowser capture: Proven with infinite cap bounces and noclip, we would need to clip through some walls and have an infinite height glitch.

we know that bowser skip is potentially possible, it has been proven (with noclip and infinite cap bounces) imo if we skip either bowser or ruined wire, we will skip the other (because we have an infinite height glitch)

1: Emulators are specifically not allowed 2: The best emulator right now (yuzu) is very very buggy still, is constantly laggy and crashes, with extremely long loads. You wouldn't be able to get a good run regardless of how good you are.

Please stop spamming the forums. There is a leaderboard for nipple%, just look at that.

the trick isn't even that hard, it is a little bit difficult to learn but with a little practice it is easy. I rarely fail it anymore

if you do runs with CRC's I'd love to race, crcless route is kinda boring tho

realistically 3-5

My best guess is that you downloaded save data. You can't have 1.3 save data on 1.0 Also, you need to make sure your cartridge isn't in the switch when you reset And I noticed you have a lot of stuff downloaded, you factory reset your switch, right?

it is available on 1.0.0, 1.0.1, and 1.1.0.

As always with new category ideas: do it yourself. Submit it. You don't need to make a forum post about it.
