For the Super Mario 64 / TAS stuff, I'm using "Extras" to describe additional strats, routes, runs, methods, movement, etc. for any TAS related content. Everything here are extras from the SM64 Temple Explorer "7 Stars" TAS - a community project that 8 other people and myself worked on about a year ago.
These are mostly different extras from the 7 Star TAS, so you get an idea of how much the final route changed. I didn't include every change though, as that would include different movement options, optimizations, etc. So these are just general routes that were significantly improved.
Watch the 7 Stas TAS here (do it):

This run will most likely not be used in the 100 Lives TAS. Getting the fortress 1-Up requires beating King Whomp first. The good news is, that route is similar to this one, so all Id have to do is just exit the course on the 3rd 1-Up.
This run needs lag reduction. Badly. Also, I gotta try a BLJ route. Maybe there can be an even faster route with one, but I doubt it, but also idk.
Also, this run is 3 frames slower than my fastest time. But I like this one more.
Didnt include a comparison this time with @pastatshs run. I think Ill do that with the original route later. SM64 - All 1Ups in Whomps Fortress - 31.85 [TAS]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/76iUz_c3s6g/mqdefault.jpg)

![[TAS] Tiny Huge Mario 64 - 1 Star BLJLess in 45653
Mario beats the game with 1 Star, and without BLJs.
Tiny Huge Mario 64: Tool-Assisted Speedrun / Superplay [TAS]
During April Fools of 2020, this videos title was originally written to pose as a new TAS WR for Super Mario 64s 1 Star BLJless category. After April 1st was over, I changed the title to what you currently see now, so I didnt give anyone the wrong impression.
Just quickly threw this run together. This run is very improvable..... like everywhere lol. Pretty sure all Bowser fights can be improved. You can grab Bowsers tail with a jump-dive in midair like normal, but the speed of Marios hitbox (due to his large size) makes it harder to grab onto. There likely is a way to skip Dire Dire Docks as well. The 70 Star Door can also be skipped, but I was just lazy lol. I went with the cleanest looking movements I could come up with for the rest of the run. When Mario is this large, the camera is a nightmare to work with, especially in Dire Dire Docks. Never want to do anything with this hack again...... for now.
Tiny Huge Mario 64 has 7 default sizes for Mario, excluding his normal vanilla size. This is the largest size the ROM can be set to. This size is 8x his original size. This means all of the values for his movements are multiplied by 8. The only thing Kaze changed was Marios gravity (terminal vertical velocity) which was slowed down to reduce fall damage. Finally, Marios hitbox isnt the same size as his default. Neither is his model.
More videos hopefully coming soon.
Thats it. Hope you enjoy.

![SMW - All Dragon Coins in Yoshi’s Island 1 [TAS]
Mario collects All Dragon Coins (Yoshi Coins) in the level “Yoshi’s Island 1”.
This is a Tool Assisted Speedrun / Superplay [TAS] of SNES Super Mario World.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The tricks in this video are pretty interesting. First I start off with the 6/5 hopping glitch, which is basically to retain maximum speed, as well as a full power meter to ensure Im able to sprint after being in the air for awhile. The second hopping glitch (after Im launched from the diagonal pipe) allows me to retain speeds higher than Marios standard speed. I got around 64 from the pipe cannon, while his regular speed is 49. Spamming A+B doesnt allow Mario to break free, so hes stuck on the ground, due to speeds of 64 and higher being the games limitation. I was able to retain speeds of 63 and below however, which is the speed that Mario breaks free from being stuck along the ground. You can see the exact moment this happens once Mario begins jumping normally.
I dont know how to time individual levels.

![Death in 193 (Low HP) - Lethal Lava Land [TAS]
This run is unbeatable. Anyone who claims to beat this run or uploads an improvement is a liar and a FRAUD. Youll be hearing from my lawyers buddy!
In Super Mario 64, its possible to die immediately when entering Lethal Lava Land by jumping into the painting just before Marios HP Value decrements to 255. Thats why I titled the video with (Low HP). The reason I went for an HP Value of 256 is because it is the lowest value possible that is obtainable which doesnt kill Mario. Due to how HP works, the health bar in the HUD is not a direct representation of how much health Mario really has. If I were to touch lava with a value above 256 (in increments of 10), it would require an extra frame (or several more) before activating the Bowser Death Screen transition. So, in order to load that faster, a lower HP value was required. See Pannenkoeks video on HP for more information. Pretty cool stuff!
Pannenkoeks HP Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeGNpeFOOCY
You might not notice it but I actually use some wonky sign hitboxes in order to touch the lava as fast as I could. I have no idea how it works, but it ended up saving 4 frames from my first initial run.
Entering courses with No HP is possible, but not all of them as far as I know. I opted not to do any No HP runs because theyre all similar. Enter the course, then die immediately. Thats boring and lame. These extra thrilling action-packed 2 seconds are way more exciting. I might make more death speedruns in other courses for the meme lol.
