Q: What does SC mean/what is Star Cancelling?
A: SC, or Star Cancelling, refers to a glitch that causes the star grabbing animation not to play, and as such you stay in a level after grabbing a star. This glitch is usually performed using Rosalina's spin ability, but can also be triggered by switching characters in a certain way.
Q: I started a run, and me or a partner already have a star/key, despite it being a brand new file. Why?
A: In as simple of a way as I can put it, you have a ghost star/ghost key. In order to avoid it, after any attempt that a star/key is obtained, either reset the server or use a different file.
Q: What does IL mean?
A: Individual Level
Q: In a 70 star co-op run, is mips clip allowed?
A: Technically yes, it is allowed. However, I highly advise using the other door clip method where someone jumps on the other person's head.
Q: Why does solo 120 only have Toad, Yoshi, and Waluigi as options?
A: Luigi, Wario, Peach, and Rosalina all have a broken wing cap in that it's impossible to get all 8 red coins in the wing-cap stage. As such, it is literally impossible to get 120 as only those characters.
Q: I want to do a co-op speedrun, but I need people to do it with!
A: Best bet is to ask in the discord ( https://discord.gg/Kvjrcfn ).
Q: What's Stage RTA (SC)?
A: Stage RTA (SC) aims to utilize star cancelling as much as possible through a run of one level. However, you're not restricted to just using Rosalina; you can use multiple characters throughout the attempt, but your variable will be "Multi" instead of "Rosalina" when submitting.
Q: I made a forum and it was deleted! Why?
A: After seeing hundreds of forum posts on other games, I've found many forums repeat themselves/are unnecessary. As such, once a forum seems to be dead, it will be deleted unless there is a good reason to keep it. If the forum brings up a good question, the question will be added to this F.A.Q.
Q: My question is not here!
A: First things first, remain calm! Secondly, check in the questions forum. If your question still is not there, then for a speedy answer, I'd ask in the SM64O discord (invite in other forum). If you don't use discord or really don't wanna join, then ask in the questions forum. If you create another forum, we will answer you, but the forum will probably get deleted.
