For April 1st this year, I decided to take a picture of every enemy, friendly, and playable character. Expand description for more info.
Whats so important about taking pictures of every enemy, friendly, and playable character?
Quite honestly? Nothing. Taking pictures of anything that isnt a Banana Fairy results in...wasted film and nothing else. You do get an interesting filter applied to the pictures though, which is cool.
Why TAS this category?
A long time ago, back in 2015, I routed a category called Donkey Kong Snap with GloriousLiar. The goal of that category was to take a picture of each cluster of bats/butterflies/fish, as well as some other animals like the Light Fish in Galleon and Squawks holding the Spotlight in Fungi who followed you around when near them/in the same area as them (I refer to these animals as FFAs, or Follow Friendly Animals). I ran this category myself sometime in 2020 (link at the bottom of the description) after finding a couple FFAs that we previously missed. Naturally, the next step was to take a picture of EVERYTHING ELSE, so here we are.
Why did the video turn Black and White?
I was using a camera hack to show what was going on. To denote the camera hack being used, I added a Black and White filter over the section of the affected footage. Had I not used this camera hack, you would only have seen the Tag Barrel screen spinning around and around. Nothing else.
How did you pull out the camera in [Boss Fight]?
I was using a *literal* camera hack to...well...use the camera. I didnt want to leave bosses out, especially when they have some crazy good animations that are 110% worth photographing!
How did you spawn a Red Klaptrap?
There is an unused Red Klaptrap spawner in that little tunnel. I activated it by finding the address in RAM and changing it from inactive to active, or 00 to 02.
Why are you using such an old version of Bizhawk?
Without getting too technical, the newer versions emulate DK64 worse than the older version that I used. If you play on the newer versions of Bizhawk, you will notice that large chunks of worlds like Galleon, Caves, and Castle will be missing until you try to enter the missing chunk, at which point the missing chunk will load and the previous chunk will now be missing. Its really annoying visually and it just isnt worth using.
Special thanks to:
Isotarge, for creating both the camera hack and the *literal* camera hack, allowing me to create this TAS.
GloriousLiar, for feedback and superior knowledge of object sentience.
Mittenz, for feedback and coming up with the idea to distribute an album of the snapped pictures (album coming soon )
Ballaam, for information on how to spawn the Red Klaptrap, and the database of enemy and character locations which massively reduced the time it took me to find everything.
