No Major Skips Help
6 years ago
United States

I recently just tried to work on the No Major Skips run of Dog's Life and on the version(which I think it is the USA version) I currently own(and just recently purchased) I cannot do the bone "doop" (bad spelling I know, or unless I spelled it right YAY :3 )with the hoop at the Farmhouse, so I was wondering where else might we be able to compensate for that or would this be more of a "glitchless" type run instead. I thought this should be brought up for debate or concern because I wasn't sure what exactly to do. So far I have been looking into what could be done differently to help compensate for the 3 bones that the bone "dooping" takes care of. Any ideas, please help. Thanks you very much!

Sorry for the late reply, I wasn't getting notifications for this board.

I am assuming the duplication must've been patched out of the American version (it was released a year or so after). The workaround is to route some other bones in of course, you'd just need to find the next fastest 3 to get. I have a (really poorly written) guide in the Guides section on the locations of a lot of bones that might be able to help.

That is, as long as you are doing it correctly? You need to leave the area and come back in to load it again for it to work.

No problem on the late reply, people are busy. ^^/''

That makes sense if it was patched out, so that might make the major skips patched out too.

I have been looking through the guide and I have done a play through once already untimed, took about 3 hoursish, which had quite a few deaths. I am looking through that Bone location guide, which is really useful btw(It is, seriously), and I think I have found some decent alternatives along the way! Shouldn't be to hard to reroute 3 bones and get better at some others ^^;;.

Hope to be able to get a run through in March! Thanks for the reply and some incite(might have spelled that wrong) on this! ^^/''

Good to hear. The major skips weren't patched out though, I know they're possible in Any% (there's a couple of American copy runs on the leaderboard).
