Adeals TASes | (SM64DS) Behind the Waterfall Balloon star in 1xB press (RIGless) @adealtas | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 3 days ago.
This video is a TAS that improves upon the previous start, which used 2 B presses (youtu.be/_5vIq-b6KZU?t=198)

Here's what I do in the video: First, my goal is to get Out of Bounds. For that, I am using a glitch called Quantum Tunelling (explained by bobby here: youtu.be/_5vIq-b6KZU). It is insanely precise, as it requires a precision of about 1/64 of a unit in each direction (for reference, a max dive rollout + ledgegrab is 333 units high). Thus, I had to write a script to find a spot that would work. However, once it found a working position, I still had to actually reach the coordinates. That's why I crawl around for a bit, to be more precise on the positionning.
Once I clip, I then need to get out of the water, but it's not as easy as it might seem, because the collisions are super janky because of the current in the water and slopes in general. In fact, this is where I saved the B press.
When Im finally on that slope, I can walk on the seam and upwarp from here.


With this improvement, the RIGless total for 1.1 has reached 20 B presses!
(the RIGless 1.0 total is no at 22 B presses!)
(this strat doesn't affect the the RIG 1.0 or RIG 1.1 totals but they're at 3xB and 0.5xB respectively)
If you don't know what RIG is, here's an explanation: youtu.be/yk9uoRYLgR4?t=1968

Thanks for reading! Have a wonderful day you wonderful person :)
