Superdavo0001 | C++/OpenGL Tutorial Series Part 1 - The First Triangle @Superdavo0001 | Uploaded 10 years ago | Updated 9 hours ago
*****PLEASE READ - USEFUL INFO!*****
Hello there everyone!
Apologies for the lack of videos recently, I've been doing my GCSEs.
Anyways, I have decided to create a new series, which aims to teach you how to use openGL, and the wonderful features it has.
Why learn it? Because it's one of the most powerful systems available for computer graphics, once you control it, you can create graphics equal to (or sometimes better than...) the professional games out at the moment.
What do you need to know already?
I am making this tutorial series with C++. I would advise that you have some experience with the language before you attempt these tutorials.
In this first tutorial, you will learn how to set up OpenGL, and draw a coloured triangle. It's quite a simple thing to draw, but it's a useful start.
I apologise for the length of the video. I think the first few of these videos will be quite long and tedious, but keep persevering, and you will have your reward...
If you want me to do anything different, then please leave a comment - I can't make my tutorials better if you don't tell me the problem!

Previous best: 1753 by Plush https://youtu.be/MaRoWuoVLNU
Dargos channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEgfodfjfo3J-bUAHrwl0Lw
In this video, Bowser In The Fire Sea is completed in 1750, saving 1 frame from the previous record by Plush. This is achieved by taking a slightly different approach to optimising quarter-frame movement, as explained below, along with a couple of general unit-scale improvements.
Additionally, by using different camera angles to reduce lag we were able to improve the console run-time by a significant margin.
This was done in collaboration with the legendary Dar gos, and this run contains inputs done by each of us. Both of us contributed towards different elements of this run, and we both found essential details without which the run would have been impossible.
This improvement means 1-key is now 1 frame faster (plus lag-frames on console), bringing the total emulator-time down to 42113, and the console time down to 42104.
So how did we save a frame? The answer lies in how the game handles movement. Basically, in order to reduce the likelihood of Mario clipping through hitboxes, the developers made Mario move in 4 substeps per frame, checking for collision at each. These are known as quarter-frames (abbreviated to qframes, qfs).
Ordinarily, you wouldnt expect this difference to have much effect, but when Mario transitions from being on the ground to being in the air (or vice-versa, jumps & related movements from ground-to-air are unaffected) on one of these qframes, he will not move for the rest of the frame afterwards. So for example, if Mario lands (air-to-ground) on the first quarter-frame, he will not move for any of the other three, so his net movement is only a quarter of what it could have been.
Because of this, it is optimal to always go from ground-to-air or vice-versa on the last possible quarter-frame. This is used throughout the grinding at the start, as well as various other places where Marios quarter-frames can be controlled.
There is one place where its a little more difficult though, and thats the last grind before the jumpdive. You see, Mario must strain during the time hes on the ground in order to get a good angle for the jumpdive. This will in turn cause Mario to strain more rapidly back towards the edge, which means he must be further away from it initially in order to make the 4/4 qframe transition work. It turns out that if you strain in too far from the edge, it becomes impossible to strain back out in 1 frame. It turns out that this means its not possible to get the required angle while still getting a 4/4 exit (or anything better than a 1/4).
So how should this situation be handled in order to travel the greatest possible distance? Plushs answer was to take the loss from 1/4 qframe, but still maintain optimal speed & the ability to control the qframe he landed on the next platform at (by changing his speed).
However, it turns out that this is not quite the optimal strategy. I looked at this problem, and realised it would actually be faster to abandon the requirement of leaving the platform in 1 frame entirely, and take a second frame to strain to the correct angle, while still being able to leave the platform on the last quarter-frame. This would cost some speed, and would mean losing a quarter-frame on the next platform (the loss of horizontal speed makes Mario land a quarter-frame too early), but overall, it adds up to around 12 or so units saved.
On its own, this is not enough to save a frame anywhere in the run (the minimum required is 21), but there were other units to be saved too. Doing the jumpdive a frame earlier meant Mario had 1 more frame of acceleration in the air at the start, giving him 0.15 more speed each frame, and therefore causing Mario to get further ahead by 0.15 units per frame, at least until he slows down again & loses them while the old run would still be in the air. This stretching of distance-saves, combined with a few more units Dargos managed to save along the way, added up to just enough additional distance to allow Mario to land on the platform below the pole/tilting platforms a frame earlier, and therefore allowed us to save a full frame. Pretty complicated, but pretty neat!
At the end of the video, I show a slow-motion comparison between the new run & Plushs old run. The differences are subtle, but noticeable.

![[TAS] SM64 Last Impact: Bee Mario Exploration - Without The Bee Powerup](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NhEH01B-q5k/hqdefault.jpg "[TAS] SM64 Last Impact: Bee Mario Exploration - Without The Bee Powerup
In this video, I complete the stage Bee Mario Exploration in Super Mario 64: Last Impact, without collecting the bee mushroom. I do this by utilising a wall triangle which is actually a very steep (and walkable) slope, and lots of precise platforming.
This run is also a TAS WR benchmark for this star, with a time of 2917. However, as there are efficient methods of getting the bee powerup without talking to the queen, theres a good chance that this isnt as fast as just collecting the bee powerup. To help test this in future, I tried to ensure I wasnt too sloppy with this run, thus giving a fair comparison with any bee-powerup run. That said though, I wouldnt be surprised if a full second could be saved with a few key optimisations.
Anyway, heres a detailed explanation of what I did:
• First, I navigated to the outside area. I was able to avoid swimming by briefly landing on the lilypads, and long-jumping away before they sank low enough to make me enter the water. Interestingly, this also makes it possible to collect the red coins without the bee powerup, but this is almost certainly slower.
• Next, I dive & recover onto a very steep floor triangle (thats supposed to be a wall). Normally it wouldnt be possible to stand on that wall, but in the most recent version of Last Impact, Kaze made it so that you can walk on pretty much any slopes, regardless of steepness. However, I will still slide if I lose all my speed, and I cannot land on it from any airborne state which involves dust-frames. This means my possible movement options are limited & slow. I navigate to the top of the slope, so I have more height for precise platforming later.
• Next, I use hyperspeed punching to efficiently cross the floor triangle. This is a glitch where punching on sufficiently steep slopes causes Mario to gain speed, rather than losing it. In the original game, this is possible on slopes with rather narrow ranges of steepnesses (too steep = Mario slides), but because of Last Impacts aforementioned slope physics changes, it is possible to perform HSP with far steeper slopes, and far more acceleration. Thus, I accelerate to around 100 speed before I break free. I do two 1-2-kick sequences, followed by 3 punches, which moves me just far enough for the next step to work.
• Next, I turn around & jumpdive onto the mushroom. This is pretty precise, but would be easier (and slower) had I continued the HSP for longer.
• I then get to the bar platforms using a long-jump + wallkick, being careful to pass under the ceiling of the other bar.
• Next I go to the next platform by long-jumping, and using the narrow floor of a gap in the white wall to reset my vertical speed, delaying the fall & allowing me to make it all the way.
• Finally, with a long-jump & 2 wallkicks, I make it to the star platform & collect the star.

Hello everyone!
Been a while since I made a space video, but I decided to make this one because a few people have often wondered how I take images of the stars and planets, so I decided to outline this process in a video (not in too much detail - dont worry!).
The data I used was of planet Jupiter, taken with my DMK 21AU618.AS camera, through my Explorer 200P telescope. The processing used a wide variety of software, which I will link to at the bottom. Anyways, enjoy the video!
Just to outline the process:
1. Use the software PIPP to align the images, and sort them into quality order
2. Stack them in Registax, and sharpen them with the wavelets feature
3. Combine them, and post-process in in Photoshop
Software is all free, except Photoshop

This video completes Super Mario And The Cursed Castles, a Super Mario 64 ROMHack created by Foxen, as quickly as possible using any skips available, shaving a little over a minute off the previous best TAS (25207 by Nathan10nathan) using a variety of new strats.
This TAS is the most ambitious single project Ive completed solo, with over 18,000 rerecords and many hours of work. I tried pretty hard to make it as clean as possible, though as is inevitable for a TAS this long, there are definitely still frames out there to be saved.
For the purposes of this run, the end-time was chosen to be the frame Mario enters the crouching animation before entering the warp at the end. The ending beyond that point is not shown in this run as Foxen requested (via a sign in the hack) that it not be shown in streams or videos.
Ill update the description with the usual verbose detail about all of the strats & optimisations after the premiere is done, but for now Id rather just let you enjoy the run without spoilers :-)

1842 by me.
15 frames saved on my previous TAS, as I found a faster way to enter the chimney. I do this by jumping and gaining super-speed to move away from it, then press B to gain -4000 speed, moving me to the chimneys warp in a single frame.
This manoeuvre is quite interesting. I suspect that the warp detection is performed 4 times per frame, and since I move at 4,000 speed, this gives 4 possible points where I can launch to the warp, at 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 units away from the warp respectively.
I tested this quite a lot, and found the method used in this run, which I think hits it on the second qframe from 2,000 units away.
If I could hit it on the first qframe (i.e. 1,000 units away), I wouldnt have to travel so far to reach the correct location, saving a few frames (~2-5). However, I couldnt make this work. Basically, at the super-speed, I move 200 units per frame, and theres room in the igloo for 50-100 ish, so only some trajectories line up close enough. After extensive testing, I couldnt find one that would work for the first qframe, so this one on the second was the best I could do.
Note that at the start of the run, I press B to momentarily gain super-speed and move to a different location. This was necessary here, as this was the only way to make everything sync up so I could aim accurately at the chimney and enter the warp. The usual location just wouldnt work for me, unfortunately. However, because this location is further away, its actually quicker to reach 2,000 units away from here than the other spot!
As well as this, I attempted to improve the slide area, by using vertical displacement (like in my Tiny Evil Penguin TAS) to fall faster. Unfortunately, I couldnt find a setup which allowed this glitch to be performed, and which allowed me to fall to the correct location, plus any setups I found to do it at all had a 14-frame cost to begin with, so I had to use the tried-and-true punch-straight-away strategy.
Im not explaining the rest of this TAS fully here, as I explained it in my previous version of it, and nothing has changed.

If youre curious about the full history of this star and its many TAS iterations, Id highly recommend checking out Ukikipedias page on the subject: https://ukikipedia.net/wiki/Treasure_of_the_Ocean_Cave
In this video, I collect the star Treasure Of The Ocean Cave in Jolly Roger Bay in 17.63 seconds, 4 frames faster than the previous record by AruaErueru. This was achieved by:
• Entering the water a frame later, in order to travel further before losing 75% of Marios speed to the water entry, saving 2 frames (I had already saved these frames in my former WR but Eru unfortunately missed this save)
• Improving the movement while collecting the chests, saving an additional 2 frames.
I wasnt expecting to be back here & uploading so soon (Ive been very busy with exams & stuff), but after Eru demolished my oldest TAS WR with this new & awesome strategy for activating the chests, I couldnt resist trying to claim it back :P
In all seriousness, I only wanted to improve the run because I noticed Eru had not used the 2-frame timesave from entering the water late that I found in 2017, so I figured it was worth correcting this mistake. When I reached the chests though, I realised I was able to save another 2 frames!
The new chest strategy involves approaching at a different angle (facing more anticlockwise to be able to turn quicker), and rapidly jumping after clipping under the wall to lose speed. After several jumps, Marios speed drops low enough that he can double-jump with positive vertical speed, and kick high enough to reach the chest platform. With about 95 speed remaining, he can then use this momentum to reach & activate the chests significantly faster than he could with the old forward movement.
Im not entirely sure that this run is fully optimal, as there may be things I didnt fully test. If nobodys improved this star by the time Im free from exams, Ill take some time to thoroughly test everything I can think of.
This run was done using Mario cam rather than fixed-cam because I branched off my old run which does the same. I will need to redo it sometime using fixed-cam so it can be incorporated into the 120-star TAS, but for the moment Im unfortunately too busy.
This video was made using the SM64 Ghost Race (v1.1) hack made by Kaze Emanuar. The ghost shown is the run made by Mickey/VIS which is used in the 2012 120-star TAS, with a time of 1843 (24 frames slower than this run). Using the ghost makes it pretty clear where & how the new strat saves time, as well as showing the 2-frame save at the start.

![[TAS] SM64: Cloning A Blue Coin Productively - Without Visiting Parallel Universes](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QdT27ZpQjR0/hqdefault.jpg "[TAS] SM64: Cloning A Blue Coin Productively - Without Visiting Parallel Universes
****READ DESCRIPTION FOR EXPLANATION****
In this video, I show that in some bizarre reality where PUs and their associated memes do not exist, it is in fact still possible to clone a blue coin productively (i.e. in a way that allows allows the original to be collected too, and therefore allows you to have more coins than youre supposed to). I do this by BLJing, before using the Downward Jump (DJ) glitch twice to reach the pipe & loading-zone before the blue coin blocks timer runs out.
First of all, heres a step-by-step description of what happens:
• I start the run holding a blue-coin clone. If you want to see how this is achieved in practice, see Pannenkoeks video: https://youtu.be/fjY7mEtqvK4
• I use the ceiling of the star box to activate the handsfree glitch. Using this glitch, I can do a variety of moves I shouldnt be able to do while holding an object, which will be useful later. Unfortunately, I cannot walk or stand still for too long, so I have to jump & kick to where I need to be
• I navigate over to the elevator & activate it, as Ill need it to be at the bottom later
• I then navigate to the blue coin block & ground-pound it, activating it, and making the blue coin clone collectable. I then drop the coin from the handsfree state by running, and collect it as I navigate to the elevator
• I then BLJ to ~16,000 speed. I use pause-BLJs both to ensure the elevator doesnt go too high for the trick to work, and that Im far enough away from the end of the elevator to avoid a weird floor glitch that kills all speed
• I then turn & downward-jump to the floor below, keeping as much speed as possible, before downward-jumping again to near the loading zone.
• After the last DJ, I enter the water-entry state, keeping my speed (though not moving because my next quarter-step is oob) & normal collision, and am upwarped to the waters surface above the ceiling. Soon after though, I enter the true swimming state, and water physics applies, which makes the ceiling downwarp back into the pipe. I swim to the loading-zone ASAP, with only 18f to spare. I think I can hit the loading-zone directly, but I was happy to reach it at all.
• I then navigate back to the blue coin block, and collect all the coins, to demonstrate that I can still collect the cloned coin. This process can be repeated indefinitely for infinite coins, but instead I just collect the blue coins.
Backstory
Back in 2014, Pannenkoek2012 made a video (https://youtu.be/1GeID2o7CV0), explaining how blue coin clones work. In that video, he showed that it was seemingly impossible to clone blue coins in a way that allows them to be re-collected, whether by cloning the blue coin block, or the coins themselves. However, he did suggest one possible solution - if you could get to a loading-zone before the block timer runs out, it would be possible to re-activate the blue coin block, making the coin collectable again. At the time though, this seemed impossible - there was nowhere near enough time to get to the loading zone legitimately, and glitches just didnt seem to work.
In 2016, with the discovery of the Parallel Universes glitch, it became possible to reach the loading-zone by BLJing, and using an Overflow Jump to hit the loading-zone, before returning to the main-map. https://youtu.be/fjY7mEtqvK4
A couple of days ago, I re-watched Pannens video, and began to wonder whether it could be possible to do this without ever leaving the main universe. My idea was to BLJ to crazy speeds, and use the downward jump to go straight to the LZ. It was a long shot, but worth a look. I tested it using an Excel-based calculator I made for PU movement, but which is applicable for ordinary hyperspeed too, and unfortunately found that the required speed would put me much too far away to be able to swim to the LZ in time. However, I also realised that it was possible to get there in two steps, using the main floor as a stepping-stone. Furthermore, the speeds required for this worked out extremely well, and no slow punching was required to kill speed anywhere. Further spreadsheet testing showed that it should be possible to make it work, and get to the LZ quickly enough.
I then put it all together a couple of days ago, creating a run that made it to the LZ with just 18 frames to spare, and confirming my idea!
Ive included a description of the Downward Jump glitch in a pinned comment, because I couldnt make enough space in the description lol

This video showcases a new and faster route for bypassing the 8-star door in Super Mario 64, without the use of the Backwards Long Jump glitch. Until now, the only suitable method for gaining enough speed to bypass doors was to use a glitch known as Hyperspeed Wallkicks (HSWKs). This technique works because Marios speed is unbounded while airborne, and by always wallkicking on the first frame possible (which conserves Marios speed), Mario can remain in the air indefinitely, allowing his speed to gradually build until he has enough to bypass the door.
This new technique... Well, youll just have to wait & see! :) Ill update this part of the description after the video is done. (If I dont forget :P)
With this new discovery (and other potential ideas) potentially leading to significant changes to the run, it is definitely very likely that a new Any% BLJLess TAS will get completed sometime in the near future. Ill be sure to keep you updated about that when any new information is available :)

Thought Id take the SM74 ABC thing back to the start for this video, doing the very first thing youd have to do in an ABC TAS - enter the first course!
Heres what I do:
• Head to the stairs leading to the DF painting.
• Climb the first step with a dive-recover.
• Climb the second step with another dive-recover, by diving into
the corner. With the correct angle, this allows Mario to keep
running, and dive without bonking his head.
• Dive-recover onto the third step, and store a vertical speed of 6.
• Punch across to the edge, and reactivate the vertical speed, to
allow me to grab onto the next ledge. (Using VSC may not actually
be necessary, as the floor above is only 154 units above the step -
just within the range of a dive-recover).
• I then dive-recover into the painting. Note that this is only
possible because the painting has a glitchy hitbox that extends
lower than it should. I got the idea from Homerfunkys 151-star
TAS, in which he uses it to save time.
Dont understand vertical speed conservation? Heres a brief description:
Vertical speed is a number the game keeps track of. It is the distance vertically the game should move Mario every frame, but its only used while hes airborne. When hes on the ground (including on slopes), Marios movement is calculated differently, so vertical speed becomes redundant.
Because of this, and to prevent glitches should Mario become airborne again, this value is normally set to zero as soon as Mario lands, but in a few situations, including (as used in this video) Mario landing from a dive-recover, the developers forgot to reset it, so the value is conserved. However, it resets as soon as you start walking, so instead I have to punch my way to the edge.
When I reach the edge and become airborne, the game immediately puts Mario into a falling state with the conserved vertical speed. The falling state allows Mario to grab onto a platform above him, allowing me to get to the next step.
