ancient | [MKW TAS] Hardest Course Harder Than Mushroom Peaks (Glitch) - 21.595 @ancientmkw | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 2 minutes ago
Watch in 4K60!
I rendered with 2gbps and the file size is 10gb. took an hour to upload :((
It's funny how i just fall off, but this is done to trigger cp0 as soon as i hit OOB. from there, i respawn behind the line and go forward to trigger cp5 and then the lap.
These checkpoints were placed so conveniently it almost seems like this ultra was intentional. Either way, it was fun and quick to TAS as I just needed to paste inputs together.

I know this isnt the MOST optimized run, but to be fair this was made in one day. Also, this is like the most fun Ive had on a run in months, as Ive taken the time to do a little strats test and optimize little snippets instead of going crazy over getting the tiniest things perfect.
That part aside, this track is GORGEOUS. I especially love how the creator nailed the atmosphere of being in space, giving it a unique feel despite there being so many space-themed tracks. Props to them for creating such a high quality track.
There isnt really much to say about the TASing experience. QM was pretty wacky but it wasnt anything a bit of wheelie turning couldnt do. The big U-turn actually utilized a couple of airtime pockets to get the tightest line possible. Unfortunately, I couldnt get QM for any RFH drift tricks except for one, but in one case (on the flip trick ramp) this was actually faster to get a hop due to alignment.

Yes, this can easily sub 1:59 and Ill probably redo this soon, but I just wanted to get a feel of how the track plays and stuff. Hope you enjoy!")

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. This time will definitely count on all real-time rankings. Done on Dolphin 4.0 Sucks with savestates, slowdown, frame advance, TAS code, Lua scripts (input writer/reader), definitely not gecko codes, and RAM watch (created by Swarejonge).
This is the most QM hell a human has ever had to go through. Period. As the wise Walter once said, you are able to go offroad if you manipulate the QM well enough. Well, as it turns out, he is in fact correct. Due to the complex mathematical properties of Quantum Mechanics, this TAS has taken me a total of 17,426 hours to prevent any speed loss from offroad.
Furthermore, from my insane QM findings, it is possible to trick off of bridges and ramp-like structures in buildings, as well as the ends of sand piles. Do take this into consideration as youre viewing this legitimately crafted run.

List of new strats:
- wheelie out of zipper instead of trick, allows us to be at 120kmh for a faster zipper speed
- ejection over invisible wall, allows us to conserve our shroom boost for longer
- STA on last ramp, saves 0.002 and basically increases our speed while sacrificing alignment. ThatsSlick helped a ton getting this to work.
Who did what:
Main glitch + Zipper: Ancient
Last shroomspot + last turn: ThatsSlick
Last ramp: Ancient and ThatsSlick

Theorized by dm248 :D
Audio didnt work because Dolphin 4.0-8572 doesnt work with 200cc code and I dont know how to record without that. So this is literally just a raw framedump lol.
I started working on this in 150cc, but I kept hitting the fall boundary. That version is far more optimized than this version to maximize the distance traveled, but it is unfortunately not enough to travel fully over the fall boundary, thus rendering this impossible in 150cc.
I realized this would work in 200cc, so I quickly did this in a few minutes and recorded it. This should be RTA viable and quite easy to do RTA as well.")

This is essentially an optimized version of my previous flap with a few strat changes. Kierio helped with optimization and I discovered the re-wheelie strat on the second shroom with a perfect stick. With that, I got the flap down to 8.522. Kierio then made improvements to the second half of the double cut and got it down to 8.515.
Big Thanks to Kierio for help in optimizing the run

BULLET BIKE IS THE NEW META!!!
Okay, all jokes aside, Im extremely happy with how this turned out. I cant believe how well Bullet Bike works for this track, and its certainly unbelievable given its a spear track.
I had this idea a few weeks ago when I was testing Spear on this track. I was down to an 8.603 but I realized that the double cut was really annoying and hard to optimize. The Spear took the turn too wide, and you needed too wide of a line after the first shroom cut. I realized that with a tight enough drift, you could fit in a wheelie or two for a faster double cut, while also being able to cut off more. I also realized that you wouldnt need to align so wide for the double cut and you have more mini turbo boost.
I then began to test Flame Runner; however, I was unable to get the shroomless clip. My test flap without any optimization or effort using the infinite shrooms code is at an 8.642 and will most likely reach a limit of 8.59x.
Afterwards, the Sneakster intrigued me, but it was also unable to get the clip. So, I tested the one vehicle I thought would never work: Bullet Bike. I quickly got the clip, and began testing, and got an 8.652. This wasnt bad for a first flap but not good either. I tested a new starting strat as well as a new double cut strat and got 8.629. After that, I made little alignment improvements and got an 8.586. I was shocked when I saw this, as I never thought sub .6 would be this easy. But I didnt stop there; I pushed the flap down to an 8.536 after wheeling for a few more frames on the first and second turn. Through further optimization, I got an 8.534. I realized that my theory about the Bullet Bike was correct, and it is the fastest vehicle for this course.
