a perfect fast accel (no l+r) holds left for one frame, nothing on the 2nd frame, a for one frame on the third. Immediately after you jump, you need to hold right.
Upon noticing the snapping back on the spinner, I reviewed my runs and didn't notice it. It doesn't seem to be present in the unedited video. I still think this run is sketchy, although I don't have definitive evidence against it.
The spinner snapped back multiple times (likely from a bad splice) and the account was made 2 hours prior to the run's submission. Lack of audio is also pretty sketchy.
how do you determine which 8-X you get is since they repeat every frame rule?
i might just make a mixer account to be safe honestly ktanenDab
does it say when the actual tourney is?
Both Kosmic, Darbian, and myself have input displays. I use a program called NintendoSpy, however, it’s not just a matter of downloading a program. I soldered cables to a NES controller extension cable to split the signal to go to my NES and an Arduino Uno. It’s complicated and I’m not sure is anyone sells them.
While I completely agree that it is very unfortunate that Tubby mysteriously vanished from the internet, I figure it is probably what he wanted to do. While it is possible (though unlikely) that something bad happened to himself or someone got unauthorized access to his social media, I think he probably left for a good reason. This doesn't need to be turned into an investigation. He likely is fed up (either temporarily or permanently) with the community and wants to remove himself from the scene.
I just felt like I should voice my opinion here. If you happen to be reading this, Blazit, me and many others would enjoy your help and presence in this community as you are a great friend who has contributed to speedrunning as a whole.
run is shit, but sub 7 was streamed I am ironically doing this
Today I was in a run to 8-3 where I could've easily gotten a sub 5. This run was -0.3 (3:36.2 8-2 split) with bad judges and slow pipejump in 8-2. I had nerves and did my usual 8-3 route (kill first koopa, top, and jump over all), but I was killed by a hard hammer thrown by the third hammer bro which normally isn't there. This has happened before, but I figured I either split inaccurately or started my timer at -3.62 rather than -3.27.
The video below is a comparison of me trying to replicate what happened in savestates. The left had the same issue while the right successfully made it through with the only differences being a few added jumps and some jumps that were delayed by a few frames.
These were both from the same savestate (-3.27, bad judges, slow pipejump) and were both played on consecutive attempts.
I use a v3.2 Gameshark. Really any Gameshark will work, but v3+ supports most codes and is the overall better deal. You also can't use the savestate code or level reset with the IGT timer without an Expansion Pak, so I'd get one of those as well.
So my 8-4 IL got accepted, but I had one question. Antony finished a 44.799 with fast accel and the time was a 316. I did no fast accels with tons of frames to save all over. I would like if a mod could confirm that my time is as shows or make sure Antony's time is really what it shows.
Thanks, Jeremy
I'd also be willing to help if needed. kosmicChamp
1: This can never be done rta. That should seem obvious already, but yeah.
2: The original video needs 10 star as they entered wing cap to get the switch. The tas by SonicPacker and everyone else uses a different strategy for the BitDW skip.
It really isn't a tutorial, but I have a DDD skip input display I did a couple weeks back that might help.
