What an absolute miserable experience, didn't rage that bad in a very long time.
I had so many absurdly bs chokes and none of those happened even once in practice and I practiced A LOT. I changed my route many many times just to end up doing a new route every attempt I got going.
You want to unlock luigi as fast as possible, but getting there still takes almost 45 minutes. Obviously luigi is super useful, but the main reason you want to do it as early as possible it because it has a major rng check, which can kill the attempt. After getting the key the ghosts spawn in a random spot and one ghost can spawn in a spot, which will hit you in the frame you can move again. I messed around with it with states, but nope there is nothing you can do. You can save and quit, which kills the attempt as well, since you are not allowed to do that, so if you see the ghost at the very edge of your screen it's gg. Could've either allowed damage in the castle or allow save and quits, but no just add such a rng check very far into the attempt. Very cool achievement, thanks for nothing.
Getting past a rng check like this adds so much press for me and we are only at 15/50. You can skip a lot of stars, so nothing is super difficult, but the bs this game can throw it you leaves me speechless. I lost 2 attempts very far in to some of the most ridiculous bs I've ever seen in my life. I was fine if this was a bigger grind, but the ways I lost those attempts were too much, so I got REALLY close to giving up and just quitting this forever.
Very glad I got it in the end, because if I had quit I couldn't have enjoyed any sm64ds hacks, since I always would have to think about just how much effort I put into this for nothing and how close I got before I got robbed.
Also ended up getting 80 star deathless, which is really nice. Getting the stars deathless is pretty much free, since you can skip a ton of stars. The only hard thing is doing b3 and holy fuck the pressure of losing the last 3h is something. Was so nervous, especially because I didn't put more practice into b3. At least here I was actually lucky was once and was able to clutch it out.

Another really really cool hint art. I am always very scared of not being able to solve anything, but I ended up getting 38/40 stars without help. I thought all areas that has stars you can warp to. Considering there was a warp to 2 sub areas in C2 and to the GD one as well. Turns out another sub area in C2 has a star, which they couldnt add a warp to, so I didnt search the area. The other one was mainly skill issue, I just didnt expect a house in the card level, even tho the hint was really clever.")
