Epic Random Gaming Channel | [TAS] Super Mario Galaxy - Yoshi's Unexpected Appearance in 46.35 @EpicRandomGamingChannel | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 hour ago
In an effort to give every star in #SuperMarioGalaxy a #TAS, a bunch of TASers got together, spun a big wheel with the level names, and made some LOTADs. I had the pleasure of TASing Space Junk Secret

Space Junk Secret - Yoshi's Unexpected Appearance
Time: 46.35s (2781 frames)
Rerecords: 4007
Author: Xander
The start follows SJ3. I didnt spend much time on the bubble pop before the launch star so it's probably improvable.
Leading up to the Yoshi planet, I reposition two goombas on the left, and also shoot the one on the right so I can do a goomba cancel (the kick animation skips the landing lag which was faster than a DPAD cancel here).
I defeat all the goombas using a few techniques:
- spin cancel jumps/long jumps to knock them down while maintaining speed
- shoot them with starbits to knock them down and move them closer to Mario
- Freeze them with P2 so Mario can instantly jump off them without being hit
When you spin into or shoot a goomba the game freezes for 3f, so I tried to overlap a few hits at once. There's room for improvement by combining more but I forced myself to move on since LOTADs shouldn't be perfect. If/when this TAS is redone, there's one goomba that notices Mario as he lands on the planet which should be frozen with P2. The bugger runs *away* from the goomba cluster at the end smh
Overall, this TAS is about 25s faster than the RTA record. The majority of the timesave comes from not jumping on all the goombas because jumping on them puts Mario in the air for an awkward amount of time.
Side note: in a full-game run we would likely feed the hungry luma for this star in SJ3 which is why the launch star was already unlocked.
This entire TAS was made in one, 9 and a half hour live stream on my twitch: twitch.tv/mike_xander. Shoutouts to BillyWAR, Toogs, and Jongyon for keeping me sane in voice chat, and to Neural for the stay hydrated assist.

Super Mario Galaxy is a classic, 2007 3D platformer in which Princess Peach is captured yet again and Mario is forced to go on a journey, collecting power stars, so he can travel to the centre of the universe and save his special one. In this TAS, Mario instead decides to terrify the local surfing instructor by breaking the game.

This is a Tool-Assisted Speedrun. For more information, visit http://TASVideos.org/ and/or read by submission text: http://tasvideos.org/6697S.html
I tried to use ffmpeg for a lossless encode... Didnt work out so well so Ill go back to my other method to get 1080p in my future videos. Subscribe for more, and come hang out in my SMG TASing server to discuss all things optimal about the SMG series https://discord.gg/nvEGsZF
The video ends abruptly because on the next frame dolphin crashes (Ive been made aware of how to potentially fix this tho)")
![[Super Mario Galaxy] Honeyhive 2 TAS with Custom Input Display](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tLIT5Hxa80E/hqdefault.jpg "[Super Mario Galaxy] Honeyhive 2 TAS with Custom Input Display
Recently Ive been working on some scripts that take the input data from ram in Super Mario Galaxy and convert it to a nice looking video/overlay!
Currently its a 3 step process:
1. Export the ram info using a lua script in dolphin
2. Create a video of the inputs using a python script
3. Put the frame dump and input video together to get the final video
I plan on working on a live input display that doesnt require post-processing the data to make the video.
You can find the code on my github here:
https://github.com/MikeXander/WiimoteInputVisualizer
This video is Tool-Assisted - its my TAS of HH2. I chose this level because its short, it presses a lot of buttons, and has some surprising inputs that people might not expect (like the down left for the slope long jumps, or the inputs for instant backflips/sideflips)")

Any% WIP
This is an improvement of 40 frames from my last attempt at the level. Shoutouts to Alexander for pointing out some improvements.
Im unsure of how many rerecords this took, I didnt take note.
Heres a breakdown of the improvements:
On the planet that the hungry luma creates Mario now spins to land on the first elevated part then 2P jumps up. This saved 38 frames over the midair 2P jump to the first elevated part then another 2P jump up.
On the pill planet, the backwards jump Mario does before the crusher saves approximately 10 frames over spinning. Mario then long jumps a whopping 62 frames earlier than the previous iteration but has a different cycle. Surprisingly enough the crusher actually allowed me to clip into the wall previously but because I did everything faster Mario was unable to do this with a different cycle. After the midair 2P jump Mario ground pounds 42 frames earlier but comes out with a net of -40. I suspect the 2 frame loss comes from poor positioning. Overall I managed to save 2 frames on this planet. No idea how that happened but we take those.
If you calculate it, you would think that time is actually 45 frames faster than the previous version but its not. This is because I more accurately timed the level. Timing is from when I select the star to the frame Mario touches the star. I calculate this by taking the frame the screen transitions and subtracting 16. Shoutouts to Yoshifan.
If you enjoyed the video stay tuned! I work slowly but effectively.
Dont forget to subscribe :D")

This is an improvement of 3f from the previous record by MKDasher https://youtu.be/qAyUK_lCzqo
1. Changed the gwk angle at the start so we could long jump 1f earlier. This results in a slightly worse LJ angle but a lot more straining makes up for that. I spent a long time trying to save another frame here. It seems possible but the straining is super weird since you need enough speed but you still need to hit the 1st secret.
2. Fixed a qf landing on the slope and stayed on it for 1 more frame to get more height so we could dive recover earlier after the 2nd secret.
3. Better positioning in the clip and a better turn at the top of the level gave more speed on the slope.
This has been on my to-do list for over a year at this point since its one of the last TASes from the old 2012 TAS that hasnt been improved. After both speedy and I got knocked out of the TAS Tournament I figured this would be a great time to team up again and become WR TASers ;)
Huge shoutouts to MKDasher for helping us get the clip
Tier 5 btw

Recently Ive been doing a few simple TASes, almost have enough footage for a brawl minus combo video, havent forgotten about the ssb4 doubles highlights Azybx, have a couple of awesome brawl minus clips and might also do a small update video regarding a few more things. Hopefully you guys can expect some good content.")

Try this level out for yourself! FD2A-0000-02A2-4D06
This is the first Kaizo Ive made and I feel really good about it!
TAS wip coming soon guys I swear...
I was inspired by a level creator named John who makes 10 second speedrun levels which I usually end up beating with only a few frames to spare and if you slow this down youll see that the clock hits 000 right as I touch the flagpole.
If you dont know what a Kaizo is, its aka Ass Hole Mario lol which just means a really hard level.
If you want any of the tricks I do in this level explained just ask in the comments and dont forget to leave a like! It really means a lot to me (^.^)/")
