This is a TAS

Whatt is tas

It's tas homie.

What does TAS mean if you don’t mind me asking? I really don’t know

@@newDay_newTempo Tool Assisted Speedrun.

i THINK this sound is meant to be some sort of barking dog or similar.. it's kind of ambiguous, and you wouldn't hear it with the game music on

​@@kelecat7094 Right I always played with music off after the first 6 years of me playing and noticed it

yep, any gamecube footage you've seen on this channel was through dolphin

there's next to no video of any top scores. scores over 4 million have been claimed on this map, but no videos exist anymore here's the closest thing, a 3.4 million by AverageTrey from 2020: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gt9dp7Wq1bLciJc.html and here's one from me, but this video isn't good enough as proof anymore, a 3.5 million from 2018: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7mZn8ymlZvcpIE.html

@@kelecat7094 the trey run helped me get 2 million the other day :) appreciate the response!!

Gotta wind up for a decently long time for every jump. Always fully commit to the flip you're doing, as changing direction will slow you down.

Intentionally throttling the game performance, save states, and recording and playing back controller input. All tools are provided by Dolphin, my emulator

@@kelecat7094 Thanks for the reply! I always imagined you would do this sort of thing using a bot for some reason, but controller input playback makes more sense. Still pretty crazy that you had to set up stuff like that hill bounce at 1:01. I tried that and it seems very precise

@@kelecat7094 i thought u actually had it on the gamecube i play it on a emulator ever since my nintendo gamecube stopped working

@@AverageEBSam I actually happen to have the case for my original Gamecube copy of Tricky at my place, as well as the disc for SSX 3! Both are still around from when my parents first bought the games for me circa 2005. The Tricky disc + SSX 3 case were both lost at some point when my family was moving house, though. This, combined with my Gamecube being sold and my Wii breaking, meant that I had to use emulators to play these games again.

HAHAHA thought the same and then saw this video

its tool assisted. its a bot where a player tells it exactly what inputs to do.

gravity on rails works slightly different than solid ground, so you can easily backtrack on rails with the right amount of boost & speed. (I think it's been fixed on SSX On Tour, I haven't tried it yet but done it plenty of times on SSX3)

Now what is it?

yeah bro keep us updated wtf

I score 2.4 M. Update

TAS

I think it's better to do this without modification too - that's why this run has no mods. The game really just lets you hit rocks and other props in a way that gives extra airtime for more points... it's just really hard to do it, especially when getting as many points as this run does. You have to hit the rocks and stuff quite softly so that you don't bail. Also, rails don't hurt you on this track like they do in Snowdream, Elysium Alps, or Mesablanca. I don't know why that's the case, but they just don't work that way, even on original console

@kelecat i agree with you 😅. hey kelecat i want to talk with you can you provide any contact details?

@@rasihidkhan7770 are you THE rashid? ive been trying to find footage of your showoff runs for months now

get some speed going backwards before you try to jump on it's really hard to copy the first example in video though

@@kelecat7094 Thanks, and you need full tricky also to maximize the speed going backwards right?

@jedidiagilj.ofalla8422 any level of RED boost will work, but it's easiest if you have full tricky already

you can save anywhere you want like you can save the game before red flake and if you didn't get it then you can try as many time as you want from there where you save

A drastic route change would be needed, but I won't count the possibility out completely. Focus is on Merq for now, so it remains to be seen

@@kelecat7094 what are you trying at merq? I'm just surprised that 5 million is possible at all.

@@DeadSparko a route change, feasible in both humane and TAS runs. Should push the score cap from Rashid's ~6.3 (video's gone since his channel got deleted) to as much as 6.4? Other stuff might also be possible to push 6.5.

@@kelecat7094 damn I hope you get 6.5. Good luck. Is the route alot more difficult?

@@DeadSparko difficulty isn't really a thing in TAS - it's more like "how long will it take to execute this perfectly?" given some of the other tricks in the track though, i wouldn't be surprised if it took a very long time to finish..

Fake 🤥

Wdym fake?

@@garagavia like your life?

@@choppy1146 I played this a ton as a kid and during my teenage years. I spent countless hours on this stage, playing it over and over again trying to get the highest score. Me and my family would all play this stage and try to beat my dad’s score. I don’t understand why you think me getting a score that high is impossible? I don’t have a ps2 currently but once I get one I’m gonna find a way to record my gameplay and prove that I can get a high score on this.

@@rockstone13248 Apologies my dude, didn't mean to be rude and ramble on like that so I deleted the comment lol, played this game a ton as a kid with my dad also so it's cool to see others who enjoyed it a lot too. If you want to play it again sometime for fun without spending much money you can try the PCSX2 emulator on your computer and connect a ps3 controller with bluetooth (my laptop struggles to run that emulator sometimes though so could be hit or miss). I used to play SSX on gamecube so I got Dolphin emulator and a gamecube controller adapter and had an absolute blast playing through this game again and getting master outfit for favorite characters, still tons of fun like 20 years later lol. Current garibaldi pb is 2.6m but might come back and go for 3 million+ someday. Still recommend checking out Kelecat's 3.520m PB or AverageTreyVG's 3.411m for a cool run with live commentary that shows some good tricks/reverse rails to practice. Cheers dude hope you have a good weekend
