SM64SR-# | Super mario star road - Big Boo's Tower (1.5x a presses)[OUTDATED] @SR-1 | Uploaded November 2022 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
I collect "Big Boo's Tower" in 1.5x A presses. This is TAS
This was previously done in 2x A presses by Zimbo: youtu.be/agHz1zrLs94
Since then, Iwer Sonsch(youtube.com/channel/UCnJKlalNQWIco1DS0Uw_XXw) suggested using a SDC from the arch between the tower and the Scuttlebug roof to reach the Scuttlebug roof in 1xA. While that is sadly not possible due to the roof being 40 units too high, it gave me the idea to use a SDC on the staircase side instead. After brainstorming some potential strats with Iwer, Marbler(youtube.com/user/supermarble94), and Sidney(youtube.com/@sidney600sr6) to get the required height, I found the strat you see in this Video and the rest is trivial. One more thing I want to mention is, how I got the boo onto the first step. To do that, I use a trick called Boo Height Manipulation. It's actually very simple, whenever Mario isn't in an air action i.e. freefall, air knockback, etc... , the Boos in the level will raise to Marios height, as long as their height is close to Marios. In this case, I use the tree to raise the boo.
You might also wonder why I didn't use the strat to go up the risky walkway, used in both the Risky walkway star itself and in the solo 100 coins TAS, and the answer is simple: I was too lazy and the Boo bounce chain to the top of the wall is significantly easier.
Thank you ChouxZi3(youtube.com/channel/UC2BRYSlctEGCRT6iKdk9kEA) for giving the Lua script to me!
This reduces the total 130 star A press count from 94 to 93
