453 IS POSSIBLE. In 8-4 in the first room there is a cealing and a pipe with a pirana plant, if mario jumps and hits his head on the small cealing as close as possible to the pipe, mario will bink and be pushed down, that momentum is enoughp to save time in the pipe entry, in other words bonking marios head in the cealing pushes him to the pipe and enters it faster. This is enoghp to archive 453.

the upwarp was probably because it turned out that runner was playing with a slightly tilted cartridge

@GameBoy-ep7de Жыл бұрын

@@undergroundmonorail The up-warp in sm64 was exactly the distance from one bit in the vertical position byte of Mario. This means that if that bit flipped on Mario would up-warp that height.. That is why a cosmic ray is most likely since they can flip bits randomly. It's just the most reasonable and likely conclusion, since other possibilities (like a tilted cartridge) would probably cause other noticeable odd things to happen, if the game didn't just randomly crash. If there was data on the exact state of sm64 as the up-warp happened then a far more confident answer could be made, but without it a cosmic ray is the best explanation.

The ChangeAreaTimer (time between entering a pipe and the level change) setting for horizontal pipes depends on the page location of the camera. The intent was probably to make the transition longer for the pipe intro level, however the check passes on the first page of any level. The consequence of this is that the first screen in the common underground bonus level has an unusually long transition compared to the other screens. Guess which level happens to require going through this screen? 1-1!

Note that it's impossible to truly brute force all TAS inputs for even 1 second of this game. If you had a choice of just two possible inputs per frame, then after 60 frames in 1 second there were 2^{60} possible input combinations to apply, which would still take an eternity to search. This argument is to show that any "brute force" approach depends quite a bit on human assumptions.

@Starwort Жыл бұрын

This is actually not quite correct; that's the number for *one* input (on or off for 60 frames). Two inputs would be 2^120 For a full NES controller (including U+D and L+R) the total comes to 2^(6*60) = 2^360 possible sets of inputs over 1 second

@rainworldenthusiast 11 ай бұрын

This is a PAL only glitch. PAL consoles runs at a different framerate (50 to the NES' 60) and the port is a bit buggy. At that spot, I believe there's some weird glitch where bouncing off the goombas with a certain horizontal speed gives you a massive amount of vertical speed, and you clip into the ground. Outside of very, very, very specific circumstances, it's impossible on NES. Miniland does it in his PAL WR, if you'd like to learn more.

I wonder if an increase in hardware glitches as the genuine hardware continues to age will eventually lead to a rule that official runs can't actually be done with an original NES and cartridge anymore. Knowing the speedrunning community, they'd start finding patterns in these seemingly unpredictable errors (e.g., this glitch is more likely to happen if the room is hot or that one is more likely if the controller is a little loose) and just consider them to be strats.

It's insane that I haven't played Mario in probably 25 years but have watching these speed runs now for a better part of a decade... I don't know when I started watching but I wanna say it was around 2013? Anyhow, it's insane that I am that interested in a game I haven't played since the 90s that I just watched a 17min video at work on how to save a 10th of a second on a run haha. I think the thing that I like the most about this speedrun compared to other Mario games is how we've seen the WR holder change hands multiple times over the yeas. I started watching with AndrewG and Darbian dominating the category and have seen the game been dominated by multiple other people over the years (you, Somewes, Miniland, Niftiski, etc.). What's crazy is I just looked at the leader board and some of the "pioneers" I just mentioned (who as I said flat out dominated this game 5 years ago) aren't even in the top 10 anymore. Compare that to a game like Mario 3. I love watching the different categories of Mario 3 evolve, but @mitchflowerpower has flat out dominated that game pretty much peerlessly (is that a word) for the better part of a decade... And I really don't think anyone is going to touch his records for awhile. And I love Mitch and watch his videos almost daily... but now the Mario 1 speedrun record is basically optimized, I have to say it's been fun watching so many people take the reins over the years and to see this record evolve.

You should play SMB1 again. I hadn't played it for years until I started watching speed runs again, I set up my nes again and can still beat the game pretty quick and to my surprise so could my mum even though she hasn't played it since 1994 or something.

If all of those tricks were possible and saved the framerule, what would the hypothetical time limit be?

@Kosmicd12 Жыл бұрын

Oh, that's a great question! I guess the best answer to this is if you saved 21f in 1-1, 21f in 4-2, and 6f in 8-4, then you'd have ~4:53.23! I'm not sure exactly how to answer if 8-2 worked, because it's just not a real thing/a fast known way to do it. And then if full fpg was possible on every stage, yeah i think it could probably save an additional like 10.15

I don't know if you'll see this, but one video (or series) I'd really like to see from you is a breakdown of how to do each of the movement tricks in SMB, specifically the inputs and what you're looking for to trigger it, like coin clip, wall jump, that thing where you bonk your head and clip, etc..

Good food is pretty good, and this vid is also quite good. With so much work from active gamers, there will probably be more ways to save frames consistently and get new record times.
