Really_Tall | Super Mario 64 DS - Faster Pillarless @Really_Tall | Uploaded 8 years ago | Updated 4 minutes ago
Original method of doing Pillarless: youtu.be/dMcpuKPTxAE
Second method of Pillarless, using Timestop: youtu.be/j18vTo2vF1A
I was looking through an old list of glitches for SM64DS (http://web.archive.org/web/20070705193126/http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/file/920758/41610), and I read that it was possible to clip OoB in SSL in the corner of the map while flying, originally found by Nicholas471. I had the idea of using this clip to do Pillarless, and it actually worked! The flying is more precise than it looks, and you have to get the clip efficiently to keep enough speed. You could start flying from a higher point to do it more easily, but that would be slow.
This is now the third method of Pillarless, and also the fastest by far. I'm fairly confident this method is faster than standing on the pillars as intended, and I think it's also faster then entering the bottom entrance and climbing up with Luigi, but I'm not sure. However, this strat still won't be used in the 150 Star TAS as this star will be paired with In the Talons of the Big Bird using the Star Cancel Glitch.

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see http://tasvideos.org/.
Super Mario 64 DS has been beaten with 0 stars for the first time! This video from Migu explains the new glitch I found, Quantum Tunnelling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFImVnkCLU0
This TAS was created in collaboration with:
Sharkey91 (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ij2bLJfWYkYOWTMF6sKVQ),
bobbybob (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT1C6zZvOrFreSBJyZaUsdg),
Migu (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC26VJmVm9thX3lYzjWYBu8Q) &
Josh65536 (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCg_BpkqF9ANYYcXQ8FZXGhA).
There is re-used input from ALAKTORN, making him the final co-author, but he wasnt part of this project.
This TAS isnt heavily optimised, and is meant as a demonstration of a 0 star completion. Were going to work on optimisating it further and we hope to get the time under 6 minutes!
