Non-TAS, Untied World Record!!
I found another little trick. Jumping as the bob-omb pushes you through is a bit faster. Ground pounding or back flipping could be even quicker, but that may only apply to TASing. I've spent more time on this star than task 1 of Skelux's Star Road competition (which is far too much of my life, lol). If anyone beats this, I might very well kill myself. XD
Also considering TASing this star! =)

Heres a little throwback video to show everyone just how high SM64 optimization standards have become throughout the years. I figured the current WR would be the run to compare with since a new one isnt being made as theres no more known improvements..right? ;)
MOVING ON:
The video on the left is the current 0 Stars TAS world record (2012) done in 5:02:25 by Snark, Kyman, sonicpacker, Mickey/VIS, and ToT:

The video on the right is the first iteration of the 0 Stars category (2007) done in 5:47:37 by AKA and SwordlessLink:

I included 2 timing methods, one being real time and the other being a frame counter. If you didnt notice, the final time of improvement subtracted from the time of the 5:47:37 should make the WR run 5:02:15. This is because for some reason the faster a stage is completed, the more lag there is from that section to the next (frame rules I suppose). When added to the time of 5:02:15, those 5 VI/s (half frames) of lag equal 5:02:23...but wait. Theres one more trick used to shorten the times of SM64 runs where the player(s) hex-edit out a single VI from the final frame of input (which is used on the WR). Finally, when you add that onto 5:02:23, you end up with a final time of 5:02:25. =)
Speaking of the final frame, TASVideos timing is from power on to the very last frame of input and no further. For these runs, that means the final B press to dive in the WR and the final A press to jump in the original.
