Hello, have been playing with Blaze on Normal, but finding a couple parts really difficult. Abedede seems to have some strat where you jump into him and then you can grab and throw him...but there is something I am not understanding. I always end up smacked away or grabbed, or run punched. Could someone explain how to fight him with Blaze? Also does anyone understand how that Zamza ninja boss even works? Having a hard time jump kicking him. I tried to do the jump-grab-throw-repeat tech, but was not having luck with that either. Any help would be appreciated.
Any links to speedrun explanations for Blaze?
Cannot view Souless_gouki's run. I have flash enabled and I know it works, however it runs nothing. Could someone link me a version of that run that I can watch? Like something on niconico or youtube?
Also the guide does not work. Is there an updated link for that as well?
Hope you enjoy it! http://tasvideos.org/3949M.html
I admire the runner's language restraint! Only 28 fucks and 9 shits!!
Hello I am trying to work out strategies and mechanics for TM2 for a TAS. I am not extremely familiar with the game so any advice to create an optimal run per level would be amazing. I can basically "select" randomness by playing differently so any best experiences you have I should be able to beat, since I control the game frame by frame.
Here is a WIP. Please tell me anything I have missed or should get to make the overall run faster.
If you have locations of remotes and other weapons I should get or be using don't hesitate to tell me. I would hate to create a run, and then have speedrunners of the game lambast it for missing basic pickups, features, or strategies.
Just upload it all in one video.
Edit: Also you have a Twitch channel. Just Highlight your run when you complete it and submit the link to that video. Also if you are concerned about electricity costs maybe you should stop playing video games and try to work.
FF7. Long RPGs in one sitting sounds like torture.
@chicdead26 Lol well that explains why I got the notifications of other runs for Power Fighters 2 but do not see them on the leaderboard.
I think I remember that even changing direction would effect the FORTH message if you were at a corner. It's been a while though.
There is an interesting glitch with priority if you were not familiar and it may prove useful in a TAS. At one point I had made a spreadsheet with outcomes that led to negative Initiative. Essentially low stats (excluding strength) and low health can give underflowing initiative. You can even get a underflowing initiative which means a massive amount of turns right from the start. But the problem is that your hit goes down since your agility sucks too, but the knife is a good weapon for high initiative.
from Dragondarch, although it looks like he got it from Mr. Kelly R. Flewin on that thread you linked: initiative = random[0,9] + agility + intelligence + weapon initiative + currentHP - maxHP To-Hit = random[0,9] + agility + weapon to-hit
I am not sure where I read it, but apparently the flag for the last boss is somehow put on that barbarian dude. Also your TAS looks ideal with the exception that it might be faster to get all critical hits with thieves. Good job!
What emulator were you using FCEUX?
- Verification requirements vary by game. Most communities usually just require a video.
- Livesplit program is controlled with button presses. View the controls by Right Click -> Settings. There are other plugins for auto splitting, but I have never used those.

Wall and Ceiling Clips This post will be about the various known ways of having our favorite ninja go into and out of objects he is not supposed to. 3-button mode has all possible clips while 6-button mode is missing the wall jump clips, because of how the game handles momentum and states. Bacon Omelette made a video that switches between the two modes to show the difference. I have posted his explanation from Discord below. I am going to attempt to show separate clips for both modes as well as additional clips.
If there are others I should include tell me.
EclipseVoid Shinobi III - Wall hop difference between 3 button and 6 button
Clips (Any that depend on Wall jumping + attack (kunai best option) will NOT work in 6-button mode) Useful / Common Ones First
Body Weapon 2 clips in succession. https://player.twitch.tv/?volume=0.809999938201909&!muted&video=v235111447&collection=&time=07m10s
Electric Demon First Useful Clip
Electric Demon Skipping Bomb Box
Traps 2 Clip To Boss There is a loading zone to the right of that area so if you can get there by clipping you load the boss.
Final Destination Clip Skip Platform Through Electric Ceiling
Ninjitsu Clips
Electric Demon Bomb Box Skip With Ninjitsu Also shows how you can use the down Clip. If you get above a short tile while in the double jump animation then press ninjitsu and hold up you can clip through it.
Ninjitsu Corner Clip Seems to only work in low ceiling with bomb boxes (could be wrong). Not consistent.
Glitching Down Through Floor in Crawl Space
Ripper Skip on 7-2
Clipping Down While in Wall The below clip shows a couple down clips. Specifically you are in the hanging state when the area reloads while in the wall. So then you use ninjitsu and hold up and you get ejected downward.
Clipping through the Invisible Upper Ceiling with Jump Ninjitsu There is an Invisible Ceiling about the levels, and it turns out it is possible to clip through it. Here I am doing the wall jump + kunai throw.
Well...occasionally the latest and greatest could have some bug that your system really does not like. If you install the same version you had working before does it work? Also you should submit this as a ticket to them along with the errors you are getting which you failed to provide here.
Are you using the most recent version? And what errors do you get when it crashes? You might want to report them if using the most recent version does not help: https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk/issues
