Glitches0and0stuff | MM - Bow on B with Poisoned Swamp Boat Cruise @Glitches0and0stuff | Uploaded 10 months ago | Updated 16 minutes ago
Here's another way to get bow on B. Note that this uses 0th day, I will be doing another video explaining 0th day when I get the chance, for now just be aware that it's a glitch which lets you look like one form but actually be another form.
A more technical description:
When you're in the koume/swamp/town archery minigames, link is assigned some minigame ammo. When link has minigame ammo his B button will automatically be set to bow UNLESS a particular flag is set.
That particular flag is an eventInf flag which is also responsible for disabling your B and C buttons while you're on the poisoned swamp cruise boat (you may recognize this as one of the flags that you can affect with BA). Because it's eventInf, we can get rid of it by simply playing song of time.
For some reason currently unknown to me, starting the boat cruise in the air gives link some minigame ammo which means that when we get rid of the eventInf flag with SoT the criteria will be met for putting bow on B. It seems that when we land (if we are not targeting) the game will realise that link shouldn't have minigame ammo will remove it, causing link to lose his bow on B. Again, I'm not sure exactly how the logic around this minigame ammo works.
Anyway, if we use 0th day to technically be zora and then die, we can keep bow on zora B. I use it at the end of this video to get weird B but you could also in theory save the game with this and have it as an easy method to restore temp B through a moon crash onto zora's B button.

In this video and the previous one, SRM is used to edit the spawn parameter of actors. This is a general variable that all actors have, chests happen to use it to store what item is inside and so by editing the spawn parameter we change the chest contents.
In general, due to the technicalities of the trick, it seemed for a while that in order to edit the spawn parameter, there had to be at least 2 of that actor in the current room. I recently discovered that we can bypass this check by loading the room with the actors were editing on the same frame we catch the boomerang. So here Im doing exactly that.
This actually opens up a lot more possibilities. The coordinates in this tunnel line up nicely so that the items we can get from the chest here are:
-Red potion
-Green potion
-Blue potion
-Bottled fairy
-Lon Lon milk
-Rutos Letter
-Magic bean
-Skull Mask
-Spooky Mask
This also means we can perform GIM on those chest items, since luckily for us there is water in ice cavern. From GIM, we can get:
-Deku Stick
-Fire arrow
-Zeldas Letter
-Pocket Egg
Here is a slightly outdated document about using SRM to move stuff around (rather than change chest contents) by Fig, its gonna get updated later tonight (or soonish at some point) to include the new stuff

I used a different cutscene this time! This is a bit quicker than the last one :)")
![[TAS] Task 6 - Swamp Spiders](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KryCzSfVTXM/hqdefault.jpg "[TAS] Task 6 - Swamp Spiders
This was my entry to task 6 of Eumeuss TAS competition. The goal was to enter the swamp spiderhouse and collect 8 skulltulas. I took 2nd place with this time of 33.33 seconds.
To setup, I get to 1 heart and get stored SoT. I also get bomb crap which is the same concept in the following video, but with bombs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9x0XQG5ZiY - this allows me to keep bombs after using song of time.
I then enter the spiderhouse and leave it, to set my spawn there. I hover just above the edge of the plane of water. I turn goron and pull the powder keg just as he touches water. This causes him to drown but the powder keg never actually touches the water. As a result, I respawn outside the spiderhouse as human with a keg. From that point onwards, I just have to wait for the fuse to nearly run out, and then I can go in for my instant recoil flip.
The rest should be relatively understandable. I use damage to interrupt the hookshot on a token in the 2nd room, allowing it to be collected instantly. I also use song of time to heal after killing myself in the 3rd room. This gives me timestop so that I can roll into both pots and stack the cutscenes to save time. The timestop mechanic can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hh_pzGBPpXM
