hey gyus im new to this whole speedrunning scene and still try to find a good game i want to "learn" and since i found this 0 star technics pretty interesting and funny to watch i tried to learn this sm64 run.

but after i lost 2 hours on the first bridge jump (which i still dont get somehow) i thought i try the lobby BLJ first. i manage to come in the pillar (veeery slowly but i can do it) but now i stuck at the BLJ part.

whenever i try to long jump mario either jumps through the pillar or does nothing but groundslam even if i first crouch and then jump.

dont know if its important but i play on an emulator with a ps3 controller connected via motionjoy (just wanted to try little bit of speedrunning .. dont want some serious competition :P )

hope you can help me with the BLJ.

Hi Acoustic, I´m not that good in Lbly either but I get it around 30%. It is a very hard trick, which took me around 5 hours to learn it. All you can do is get as much in the corner at the stairs as possible, push against the wall, roll your control-stick to down-right and press z and then A. Imediatly turn the controll stick left. If you groundpound or just jump you´re either to slow(started jumping to early) or pressed a to fast after z. I´d highly recommend you to try 16 star because the basement bly is basicly impossible.

For a new player 0 star is going to be impossible, and LBLJ is extremely difficult if you aren't comfortable with Mario's movement mechanics. I recommend going to 16 or 70 star for now.

LBLJ is almost setup based. Once you got the feeling how many bljs you need the rest becomes easy. Camera handling is also something you have to practice first.
