Super mario star road - The secret Tunnel + Puzzle of the Vanish Cap secret [CCCless] SM64SR-# 2024-02-16 | A while ago I was having the idea of making a CCC Challenge video for star road and decided to look into ways to reach the secret tunnel without collecting coins since the normal route automatically does so by pushing the grave. After messing around for a bit, I found the strat you see in this video which uses a BLJ to build up speed and then does 2 negative jumps to reach the tunnel and the rest is trivial. I originally wanted to post these stars together with the CCC Challenge video but that video has been in the making for well over a year now and I recently decided to scrap it entirely since I don't have motivation nor time to work on it any further.

Super mario star road - Fluffy Castle Climb (0x A presses) SM64SR-# 2023-12-13 | I collect "Fluffy Castle Climb" in 0x A presses. This is a TASThis was previously done in 1x A press by Sidney: youtu.be/hO2-nFqaJi0?si=17uKgikuHRzKdKiHSince then it was realized that the bees found in Cloudrail station and Mad musical mess are basically just flyguys with three key changes in behavior, namely that they do everything twice as fast, they can move through walls and they don't give you a twirl when you bounce on them. And since they are basically just fast flyguys this also meant that you can manipulate the bees in the same way you can manipulate the flyguys. However the only people in the community who knew how flyguy, and by extension bee manipulation worked didn't want to do it since bee manipulation is very tedious and difficult. So, since I had nothing to do a few days ago I decided to learn how to do bee manipulation and after a few rudiment attempts I finally got the general principle on how to manipulate the bees efficiently. Here's what I do: First I lure the train flower bee out of its home radius in a position near the fluffy castle. Then, I go out of its draw distance sphere so it stays in place and won't fly back to its home. After that I make the bee go into a twirl using the pendulum by going from the low zone which stars at 400 units below the bee, to the high zone which starts at 200 units below the very fast. I then briefly activate the bee so it spirals upwards to about y=900. Next I go back to the start and go on the elevator from which I can manipulate the bee further. I make it go into a spiral by once again going from the low to the high zone really quick, this time by using the raising of the elevator and a well timed DR but after going to the high zone to make the bee go into the spiral and change its direction I immediately go back into the medium zone which causes the bee to stop twirling and now it would start facing back to its home, however before it can do that I go back into the high zone with yet another dive recover which causes the bee to fly to the new angle instead and conveniently I did it in such a way that it lunges towards the castle. Since the bee ended up being to far away though I went down from the castle while making the bee fly to y=1300 which was a more favorable position. After doing the same elevator maneuver once more to make the bee fly to the castle once more, I could then reactivate it from the top platform and while strategically manipulating it while on the donut platform I can then bounce on the bee and reach the wing cap boxes and from there the TAS is basically the same as Sidney's 1xA TAS.This reduces the total 130 star A press count from 54 to 53.ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the Star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK

Super mario star road - Red Coins of the Sky (3x A presses)[OUTDATED] SM64SR-# 2023-12-01 | I collect "Red coins of the Sky" in 3x A presses. This is a TAS.Shoutouts to Marbler(@supermarble94) for TASing the Goomba manipulation at the beginning as well as helping me with the Hyperspeed twirl! This TAS wouldn't have been possible without him.This was previously done in 5x A presses and combined with 100 coins by Sidney: youtu.be/fTGoCu6q5mw?si=KlIScHK112wlAVTASince then, Sidney(@sidney600sr) suggested the idea you also see in this video, where you go from the first red coin roof to the pond island with an HSG jump. I managed to do that about a year ago but at the time this led to a lot of routing problems that made this saving an A press incredibly difficult. It was not until recently that I came up with the idea you see in this video where you enter the pedro spot and then Hyperspeed twirl to get two red coins and land near the windmill which could reduce the star to 3xA. There was another problem though, namely that we would miss out on so many coins that we couldn't collect 100 coins anymore. So in a brainstorming session, me and Marbler(@supermarble94) both came to the conclusion that the next best star to combine 100 coins with was "Behind the Underwater Gate". That TAS has already been finished and can be watched here: youtu.be/i0FEMLly0EU?si=GEBQDJSIZtCFX4qb. Two other things that were problematic were the Goomba manipulation to reach the pedro spot and grabbing both reds with the twirl but Marbler figured out how to do both of these things.This reduces the total 130 star A press count from 57 to 55.ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the Star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK

This is a TASBehind the Underwater Gate has already been done in 2xA but back then it hasn't been combined with 100 coins: youtu.be/YuuIZLGk0J8?si=-dqt53CVPSa6xpJLSince then, we realized that if we don't combine 100 coins with "Red coins of the Sky", we could save 2x A presses on that star. However the problem was finding a star in this level that could be combined with 100 coins and not add any extra A presses for coin collecting. After brainstorming a bit with Marbler (@supermarble94) we both came to the conclusion that the only suitable candidate was "Behind the Underwater Gate".So over the last couple of days I developed the route you see in this video which allows for this star to be combined with 100 coins which will lead to a 2xA save on reds.This doesn't reduce the total 130 star A press count since all this does is combining a star with 100 coins.ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the Star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK

After that I freefall onto the lower Boo from the first step and the received height allows me to bounce on the higher Boo and that gives me just barely enough height to ledgegrab the second step. If the Boo would've been just 1 unit lower this wouldn't have been possible.This doesn't reduce the total 130 star A press count, since it's just a half A press save.ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the Star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK

I showed a while ago that it was possible to raise a boo to the correct height (youtu.be/jtYAha3tKps?si=FwzR1INHFrwpFpWX) but at the time I didn't expect it to be of any use since I didn't knew if it was possible to get the boo over to the floating platforms. After doing the 1xA TAS I decided to look into this problem and quickly noticed that a small portion of the boos home radius barely touched the lower floating platform and that was enough to get the boo over and onto the higher platform and from there it was already known that you could reach the top.This reduces the total 130 star A press count from 58 to 57ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the Star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK

While being on the elevator I manipulate the boo in such a way that he's at the void red at the same time mario reaches it as well so I can then bounce on the boo which gives me just enough height to collect the red coinThis reduces the total 130 star A press count from 59 to 58ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the Star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK
Super mario star road - Top of the Risky Walkway (0x A presses) SM64SR-# 2023-10-11 | I collect "Top of the Risky Walkway" in 0x A presses. This is a TASMassive shoutout to Zerolin (@ZerolinGD) for TASing the ending part with the Scuttlebug knockback bounce into 207 DR into SDC.This was previously done in 1x A press by Alexplalix1: youtu.be/A7jRDUy4yOY?si=oWZQ8gWm3JzDGzzeSince then, an idea was brought back to the table that was suggested all the way back in 2017 by Adeal (@adealtas) which is to lure the Scuttlebug to the big structure, bounce on him to reach the first step and have one of it's coins reach the second step, Do a 207 DR to reach the second step by yourself, collect the Scuttlebug's coins as your 100th coin and do a SDC to reach the third step from where you could then collect the star. At the time it wasn't even possible to collect 100 coins in Gloomy Garden 0xA so the idea was concluded impossible. It wasn't until recently that multiple people, including myself, started to look into this strat again and found out that it might actually just barely work. There were only 2 problematic parts which were to figure out a way to actually make the Scuttlebug's coin reach the second step, which was solved by Marbler (@supermarble94) using a Scuttlebug knockback bounce and the second problem which was solved by myself while making this TAS. You see, while it was proven by lemon (@lemon9bug) that 100 coins were obtainable 0xA we could actually only get 99 coins using this strat. One blue coin from the boo that we use to reach the star platform couldn't be collected since killing him meant that we can't reach the star platform anymore, and also one Scuttlebug coin couldn't be collected since it was at most possible to get two Scuttlebug coins to the second step but not all three. After I showed that it was possible to reach the big wall with boo bounce chains one more blue coin could be collected from a Bookend which would mean we could get 99 in total. I then realized that it's probably possible to reach the blue coin block located on the wall with Boo bounce chains as well so without further testing it I just started the TAS, and after some failed attempts I found the solution you see in this video. The rest of the TAS is pretty trivial, however I couldn't get the ending part to work so Zerolin (@ZerolinGD) took over and TASed that part for me.This reduces the total 130 star A press count from 63 to 62ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK

Super mario star road - Pole jumping (0x A presses) SM64SR-# 2023-07-28 | We collect "Pole jumping" in 0x A presses. This is a TASFirst of all, massive shoutout to Zerolin (@ZerolinGD ) for TASing the BCA Chuckya grab and Marbler (@supermarble94 ) for TASing the CWT at the end as well as the flyguy manipulation and the final twirl to the star. This TAS wouldn't have been possible without them.This was previously done in 1x A presses by Sidney: youtu.be/Qbqe5_wclpYSince then, Marbler discovered Chuckya Wrong Throw (CWT). Soon after its discovery we began to look through every course that had a Chuckya in it to see if A presses might be saveable with this new technique. Two candidates that immediately came to mind were the 2 A presses required to collect Top of the Toy tower and Pole jumping in Colossal candy clutter. With a precise CWT, it might be possible to collect both of these stars in 0x A presses. However, there was one tiny problem: In order to do a CWT efficiently, you have to get thrown from a preset HOLP, but in order to reach the mainland in Colossal candy clutter you had to grab a crazy box to get to the Tuxie platform and grabbing a crazy box updates the HOLP so that was not an option. On the tiny island you start on theres almost nothing to work with so reaching the mainland without updating the HOLP seemed impossible at the time.A few days ago, I decided to look into this problem and quickly found out that the little toy plane at the start has a pedro spot in which you can build up to 1500 spd. I soon realized that this could be used to clip into the slide and then use a misalignment on the ending pipe to get back to the Tuxie platform and from there it was already proven that you can reach the mainland. However, after beginning the TAS and getting to the pipe I realized that it was 1 unit to high to do a misa rollout on so I had to come up with the fence clip strat to ledgegrab the pipe instead. After that I just had to get to the mainland to prove that it is possible to reach it without updating the HOLP. (youtu.be/eTzb9Lo8QEQ) The next part of the strategie was to lure the Chuckya down to the yellow platforms in order to BCA grab him and throw him to the HOLP. I do this by going in and out of Chuckya's home radius until he keeps running into the wall while ever so slightly facing towards the edge which causes him to drop down. However, when he drops down his speed gets set to 0 which is a problem since that will cause him to land on the steep slope from which we cant grab him and Chuckya also cant move anymore. In order to avoid this I leave Chuckya's home radius when he drops down which gives him a bit of extra speed but also causes him to move towards his home. So soon after that I go back into his home radius which causes him to keep his speed but move towards Mario again which barely allows him to land on the yellow platform.Next up was the BCA Chuckya grab. The biggest problem here is that the fire spewer leaves us only a small time window in which we can successfully set up BCA, grab Chuckya and throw him to the HOLP with the correct angle. I couldn't get that to work so Zerolin took over and TASed that part for me. While he did the BCA Chuckya grab I looked through every stage to see where we could potentially place a good HOLP. And as it turns out, that was the biggest problem. The problem is that of all the accesible courses, Colossal candy clutter is one of the tallest ones. As it turns out there is one singular HOLP location that barely works which is located in Mushroom Mountain Town and also the one you see in the video. If the pillar was in a slightly different location or slightly lower this strat wouldn't have been possible.After I confirmed that the HOLP worked and Zerolin finished the BCA Chuckya grab, all that was left to do now was reactivating the Chuckya, doing the CWT to the top of the tower and doing the flyguy manipulation in order to reach the pole jumping star platform. The strat to reactivate Chuckya was theorized by Zerolin and executed by myself and the final CWT was TASed by Marbler. He also came up with and TASed the strat to manipulate flyguy which is achieved by getting -8 vsc on the platform and then just barely entering flyguys radius while still being able to ledgrab. After that he manipulated flyguy into a suitable location and did a max speed DR into a twirl in order to reach the star platform.Zerolin hexed together the HOLP placement with the actual run since as I mentioned the HOLP placement was found in the middle of the actual TAS work. So if you wondered why RNG manipulation gets done in Mushroom Mountain Town, thats why.This reduces the total 130 star A press count from 72 to 71ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK
Super mario star road - Top of the Toy Tower (0x A presses) SM64SR-# 2023-07-24 | We collect "Top of the Toy Tower" in 0x A presses. This is TASFirst of all, massive shoutout to Zerolin (@ZerolinGD) for TASing the BCA Chuckya grab and Marbler (@supermarble94) for TASing the CWT at the end. This TAS wouldn't have been possible without them.This was previously done in 1x A presses by Sidney: youtu.be/xv113MZPVLQSince then, Marbler discovered Chuckya Wrong Throw (CWT). Soon after its discovery we began to look through every course that had a Chuckya in it to see if A presses might be saveable with this new technique. Two candidates that immediately came to mind were the 2 A presses required to collect Top of the Toy tower and Pole jumping in Colossal candy clutter. With a precise CWT, it might be possible to collect both of these stars in 0x A presses. However, there was one tiny problem: In order to do a CWT efficiently, you have to get thrown from a preset HOLP, but in order to reach the mainland in Colossal candy clutter you had to grab a crazy box to get to the Tuxie platform and grabbing a crazy box updates the HOLP so that was not an option. On the tiny island you start on theres almost nothing to work with so reaching the mainland without updating the HOLP seemed impossible at the time.A few days ago, I decided to look into this problem and quickly found out that the little toy plane at the start has a pedro spot in which you can build up to 1500 spd.

Super mario star road - Haunted Ride for Red Coins (2x A presses)[OUTDATED] SM64SR-# 2023-07-19 | I collect "Haunted ride for red coins" in 2x A presses. This is a TASFirst of all, massive shoutout to Marbler (@supermarble94) for TASing the Goomba manipulation at the beginning as well as the Goomba bounce to clear the first gap in order to save the first A press. This TAS wouldn't have been possible without him.This was previously done in 4x A presses by myself: youtu.be/wTBfE5CDhhoSince then, authenticbrine (@BrinePato) suggested using the Goomba thats on top of the big wall in order to clear the first gap and save the first A press. After discussing this for a bit in the discord server, I made a prove of concept video with a hacked Goomba that showed that a Goomba bounce would be enough to get to the other side (youtu.be/0QL37PP5e3g). However, I couldn't manipulate the Goomba to fall off so Marbler took over and TASed that part.The second A press save makes use of a trick called Boo Height Manipulation or BHM for short. To simplify it, when Mario is in certain actions like idle or hanging on a pole/tree the boos will move towards marios y-value as long as he's close to the Boos y-value. Since the boos default position was too high to get under the arch and collect the 2nd red coin, I had to lower them using the tree and the slope. Another thing I want to mention is that when Mario is airborne the boos will move towards y=0 which is underneath them, so while we do the Boo bounce chain towards the red the boos will move slightly downwards as well. It is very subtle but I thought I might as well mention it since it also applies to the other two boo bounce chains that are required to get to the wall. The rest of the TAS is basically the same as the previous record aside from some setup changes and the fact that I had to do the first boo bounce chain to the wall 0xA since I couldn't leech off the A press to clear the first gap since that one was saved.This reduces the total 130 star A press count from 75 to 73ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCexJoin the Star road abc Discord: discord.gg/PYJWnBK

This is TASThis was previously done in 2x A presses by myself: youtu.be/fYQY0dENTSQShortly after posting that run, I brainstormed ideas to reach the Koopa statue's mouth in 0x A presses. I quickly realized that the nearby goomba could be used to DR into the mouth but at the time I couldn't get it to work so I just left that star at 2xA and moved on. However, a few months later I revisited this strat and found out that it is possible to reach the mouth 0xA with a goomba bounce (youtu.be/SHatZfgB0vM). But there was still one problem, namely that the goomba I used was hacked to stay at the right position and I didn't even know if it could reach that point. Today I tried and after an hour of attempts it actually worked with a simple goomba chase extension.This reduces the total A press count from 79 to 78ABC playlist: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrQtcX0snX2cmJAKeiQ3-ncnQpc_SzCex

This is TASThis was previously done in 2x A presses by Zimbo: youtu.be/agHz1zrLs94Since 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!

ChouxZi3 then found the stair BLJ setup which saved some time as well, so he redid the PU part with basically the same inputs.

Sidney thought of a goomba lure to get onto the drum but I figured, that a DR to the harp would be sufficient as well. The only problematic thing was to get a DR to happen in this tiny area but I managed to do it. The rest was easy except for that final rollout from the trumpet to the star platform.
