Kriller37 | [TAS] 'New style' of doing full fpg @kriller3771 | Uploaded February 2020 | Updated October 2024, 5 days ago.
Don't know what to call this, how to describe this, or what to put as a title that actually explains this well, but yeah. I have thought that this would be possible for a really long time, but finally got it to work. Manipulating the bullet to shoot at the right time and place, without trying to optimize for speed, was already hell. Pretty sure that given the right conditions, you could get this to actually save time, but man I can;t imagine how long that would take and how awfully painful that would be to TAS.
In case your wondering, I am pretty sure that this can't be done in 5-3 of SMB1, so this isn't some warpless tas improvement or anything. This tas was made on the rom hack of smb1 called 'SMB the forgotten worlds'

I really like a lot of the music sync, and how Mario took damage to Bowser from below at the end.

Note - Most, if not all, of the inputs of this tas that arent in the underground sections of this level are not tased by me, and are the inputs from the current published maximum coins TAS, by CuteQt, Tehh_083 & HappyLee. The submission can be seen here: http://tasvideos.org/4834S.html
This is 84 frames faster than the current published maximum coins tas. The time save comes from clipping in the wall in the underground section without having to jump at all in the wall to get pushed all the way in. This is done by using both of the last 2 coins on the far right to by-pass the floor detection on 2 of the blocks in that wall, instead of only 1. This is the same clip that is in the famous angrewG oh man woah twitch clip, where he gets this same clip in 4-2 underground after failing 4-2 wrong warp.
The coin blocks are also dependent on the 21 framerule timer, so to get the maximum number of coins from them (16), you have to sometimes wait a bit before hitting the coin block for the first time (this is also talked about in the submission notes of the maximum coins tas). It just so happens that 4 of the times the current tas went to the underground, it was close to the next coin-block framerule, but didnt get it, so instead had to wait for a bit to get the next coin block framerule. This faster underground method was enough to save that extra framerule 4 times in the underground.
With the extra in-game seconds this 6-2 gets, you do just barely have enough time to full fpg with the parakoopa at the end of the level like the warpless tas does, but because the in game timer is so low (actually 000), full fpg doesnt save any time.
Also, incase some of you were thinking this, this is not the thing i mentioned a couple days ago in some discord servers, about the very precise TAS improvement that i recently made. That is something else, which is still going to remain a secret for now kosmicZ.
TASd this around a month or 2 ago, but wanted to keep it secret at the time. I now know that im definitely not gonna be working on remaking this tas with this time save for a long time, if ever, so i figured there was no reason to keep it a secret, and why not upload it to youtube.")
