Kierio04 | All Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass DLC Wave 4 in Mario Kart Wii (Tool-Assisted) @Kierio04 | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 3 minutes ago
This video shows all Mario Kart Wii ports of the tracks that released as a part of Wave 4 of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's DLC on 9 March 2023, except Tour Amsterdam Drift and Tour Bangkok Rush due to the current quality of the ports, and SW Yoshi's Island due to no port existing. All the footage is tool-assisted, i.e. slowdown, savestates, frame advance, and other tools were used to perfect the gameplay.

After how high a standard I set in the last wave's showcase, I'm really disappointed in the quality of the TASes in this video, and the lack of tracks I can even showcase. I have a lot of projects I'm rushing to get done at the moment, so this unfortunately had to be affected.

![CTGP Tracks Done Backwards - Candy Coaster 0x Respawns (16/218) [OUTDATED]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/aIMsVeLg10Y/hqdefault.jpg "CTGP Tracks Done Backwards - Candy Coaster 0x Respawns (16/218) [OUTDATED]
THIS VIDEO IS OUTDATED - PLEASE SEE A BETTER VERSION OF THIS VIDEO HERE: https://youtu.be/H437JqpiZiY
Huge thanks to Melg (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCi7BmIG91AG7lBt3sC_PkGw), for creating the brand new made-for-TASes debug panel!
In this video, I drive a full lap of the custom track Candy Coaster backwards with the 3 mushrooms available in time trials. In order for a track to count as being completed backwards, you must start in lap 1 and travel through all of lap 0 backwards, finishing by reaching lap -1. We will be going through the tracks of the CTGP 1.03-1112 update (29 Sep 2021) alphabetically, and returning to any past tracks if breakthroughs are made that change the statistics of the progression of the challenge (more on this later in the description).
Playlist of these videos: https://bit.ly/ctgpbackwards
Here, there are NO respawns that are mandatory to complete the track backwards, and there are TWO sections requiring a single mushroom each.
There are 10 blocks on this track:
1/2. Getting up to the final/penultimate raised platforms
3. Getting up to the highest level straight
4. Getting across the gap on the highest level straight
5. Getting to the beginning of the cannon
6. Getting up to the ramp before the cannon
7/8/9. Getting out of the lowest/goomba/entry levels of the tunnel
10. Getting across the gap after the first turn
This is quite definitely the single most convoluted backwards project we have had to date. Originally, I had thought we might be able to complete the track backwards in 6 respawns, using a single mushroom to skip the 1st and 2nd blocks together (https://youtu.be/WW-O1tOBlo8), but shortly after found it could be done shroomless and demonstrated that it was indeed possible, except that the last respawn didnt put you behind the gap we were trying to cross (the 10th block), and so the track was deemed impossible to complete backwards (https://youtu.be/rjAWgqUyQwo).
EmuTheCat (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCag8yvhqE0P5nNef_0IcWvQ) then had an idea to skip the 1st/2nd blocks with 3 mushrooms 0 respawns instead of a shroomless respawn (which would be an improvement for 3+ mushroom routes), but neither he nor I could make it work (https://youtu.be/sZPbjHP080Q). this is police (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3f4F6RX4gBHOGxG6owYigg) showed a way to skip the 1st/2nd/3rd blocks with a 1 mushroom respawn, and later made it a shroomless respawn (https://youtu.be/cwJqZOvMpvc). During an investigation for minor time improvements, a HWG strat was found that gave potential for the 10th block to be skipped (https://youtu.be/fCYd574oTyI). After some progress updates (https://youtu.be/dkTjfNbQjao, https://youtu.be/C6E9XAZMKNU, https://youtu.be/4PyitUlrSRM), a workaround was found that made the 10th block possible shroomless 0 respawns (https://youtu.be/lUSLCdzZBMs), making the entire track possible backwards shroomless in 4 respawns (https://youtu.be/vPRAkOSQMNU).
After uploading that, we started making a cleaner (better lines) and faster (better character choice) version of the 4 respawn run, and looked out for any potential improvements that could be made. At the time, the whole track was locked to being shroomless because of the 1st/2nd/3rd block requiring a respawn, however this is police found a HWG spot (https://youtu.be/e6GaeoNQc6g) that would eventually be used to skip the 1st/2nd/3rd blocks shroomless 0 respawns (https://youtu.be/DkcoHUWPLhU). This opened up potential for the 4th block to skipped with 1 mushroom 0 respawns (https://youtu.be/1Kgye9_N2G8). Meanwhile, EmuTheCat was innovating using SWG to skip the 5th block shroomless 0 respawns (https://youtu.be/ETJKuhs77j8), and after further time improvements (https://youtu.be/FZcUaxwd97U), realised the 8th block was now open to be skipped with 1 mushroom 0 respawns (https://youtu.be/3mfTLu87kmw), which all in total brought the track down to 2 mushrooms 0 respawns, which is what the video shows.
I highly doubt this is the final state of the track since it is such an open environment, so I am looking forward to seeing what people come up with in the future to further improve the insane combination of strats that already exist.
In summary, Candy Coaster has the following statistics to offer:
Minimum Respawns for Infinite Mushrooms: 0
Minimum Respawns for 3, 2, 1, 0 Mushrooms: 0, 0, 1, 2
Minimum Mushrooms for Minimum Respawns: 2
Minimum Mushrooms for Track Completion: 0")

For a full understanding of why this video is a big deal, please watch the entire thing. For a quick summary, read the following...
[1:26] the ending strat was originally decided to be a glitch because you drive on the wall, which (since there is an ultra shortcut) makes it a no ultra strategy. However, since you can do it without driving on the wall, you can just do it as such and it becomes a no glitch strategy too.
[2:26] Normally, this would be fine to leave as it is (option 1), because similar strategies with glitch and no-glitch equivalents do exist (on MG, DC, rSL, etc.), but I believe the classification of the ending strat itself needs to be reconsidered (option 2).
[3:26] Please note, when voting in the comments on whether you think the ending strat should count as a glitch or not, keep in mind that RFH/RFHA is and never has been considered a glitch, regardless of what you might think. Supergrinds are only a special type of RFH/RFHA that results in a build-up of large speed.

NOTE: Its become normal practice for me to document my work-in-progress runs and strat developments on my second channel, so its likely a shock that Im uploading a TAS with this many surprises. The reason for this is that so many of the strats were already being kept secret due to them being discovered while the task was running, so the rest of the run was as well. I agree, this seems quite hypocritical of me but theres not much I can do now ¯_(ツ)_/¯
So, about the TAS itself. I cant really say I ever really planned to start this project. It just sort of gradually started because of Task 23 and the creativity that was tested during that task. I cant express the amazement in words that I have of everyone in this collaboration and the accomplishments that were made before and during it. There were 4 major strat discoveries in a span of a month that brought the flap down by 52.6% (over half). During the task, the top two teams independently found both the ramp respawn strategy and the bounce respawn strategy. As well as this, both types of delayed lap count (side entry and reverse entry) were realised. Lastly, the ending of the TAS is an exact copy of the inputs in the 2nd place submission to Task 23, because none of us were able to find an improvement.
About the video, I figured after not releasing the strats via documentation that they deserved their own history section, similar to that of and inspired by the Koopa Cape (https://youtu.be/ZyphCIdVszY) or Daisy Circuit (https://youtu.be/XbjiEt4OYlY) ultra shortcut strat development segments. For anyone who wants to accuse me of copying the date/strat display from Wade (in the Daisy Circuit video), just know that I was the one who came up with it.
