I grew up with Ocarina of Time, it is my favorite game without question. While I was just a kid when the game first came out, I am now a grown adult man and when I saw this done live two years ago, I am not ashamed to admit, I cried over how beautiful this run was. Two years later, on the eve of the next SGDQ I find myself rewatching this masterpiece and I have tears running down my face all over again. Thank you for creating such an amazing story to help close out well over two decades of wonder with this very special game.

I understand how hard it is to deal with mental illness. I've been suffering anxiety, going through this alone, fearing everything. It makes me feel guilty and torn me apart. I always wanted to be part of something. I'm trying to restore Link from Zelda 64 spaceworld 96. I've been working on modeling areas like the beta version. Like Death Mountain, I try to use Sharpocarina to import my model in place. It made it difficult to add a scene in place. It said it could find the image. It only loaded up the model. So, I sort of gave up. But I still try to improve. So right now, I was thinking of remodeling the lost woods in Ocarina of time to make it more modern design like a forest. I don't have anyone to share what I'm working on. I've been doing this alone

@@Laloa. I feel Sauraen did a good job of explaining that we used a lot of glitches and a huge number of button presses after achieving arbitrary code execution to create what we showed. We further explored those aspects during the end credits and provided a thorough explanation video thanks to help from RGME that went live as soon as possible after we showed Triforce% live and we also provided extensive documentation via a press release and the official website. I speak from experience when I say finding the balance can be extremely hard; I botched it in the other direction during AGDQ 2015 for instance, and likewise I'd say the AGDQ 2017 TAS block definitely didn't explain enough. For this presentation that required such a careful balance I feel we did as good of a job as we possibly could have done for a live environment where you can't just do a do-over. Some things weren't perfect and there are things I would have done slightly differently both during preparations as well as during the presentation itself. Still, I'm extremely happy with how this turned out and I have no regrets, we tried our best. If there's something else you feel could be done "in post" outside what's in the description, pinned comment, and website, please let me know and I'll do my best to ensure your concerns are addressed.

@@Laloa. We intended that viewers would suspend their disbelief and not be aware of how much we were creating with ACE along the way. However, we also intended that people would "figure it out" towards the end, which is why we made more and more impossible things happen within the game. And I explicitly stated what we had done during the credits speech. As dwangoAC alluded to above, we were also really trying to make sure that people understood that this was really just insane glitch exploitation within vanilla OoT. We had people afterwards claiming that it was a romhack or that the ending was just a video that we switched the stream over to. The fact that this is all as "legitimate" in the game as any other glitches--obviously not intended by the developers, but still a part of what the game is to the community--was the whole point.

The ending is not a video, it's Arbitrary Code Execution. Everything you saw is really just TASBot playing Ocarina of Time insanely well, with the same original cartridge you grew up with. As far as the voice of Link (who is in the credits as Zero), they are a professional Japanese voice actor, but they are not any of the voice actors Nintendo has used for Link over the years. The real voice actors likely would not have been willing to put their careers on the line for a fan project, and we could not take the risk that Nintendo's legal team might hear about this before it was performed.

That was one of our objectives, and it aligns with GDQ's mission. The value of these old games is partly thanks to the community continually breathing new life into them through speedrunning, modding, and the like. The plot of Triforce% up through getting the Triforce was about how beta content interpreted by the community--and urban legends made up by them--shaped what OoT is today. And the finale was celebrating the relationship between the community and the franchise, and asking for it to continue into the future.

This is not a recent video but I really hope even a single person upvotes this comment after reading this essay because it means so much to me and I want to have shared it with at least a single person… I SOOO wish I could’ve watched this with my grandmother. She raised me as a child after my mother passed and one of the things she did with me everyday as I was growing up was play Ocarina of Time with me. She was retired so we had all the time in the world and we played it all the time. ALL THE TIME. Lol. She was my grandmother, she connected with me the best way I would let her - through video games. We ran through the game multiple times, we collected every heart, did every side quest - just like most fans. And we always wondered how to beat the Running Man… how to melt the ice… how to get to the Unicorn Fountain (although we didn’t know its name at the time), and how to get the Triforce (as she did on Link To The Past). She passed 6 months ago shortly before Christmas ‘23. The entirety of this video all I could think about was watching this with her, both of us in awe, watching my childhood dreams come to fruition. I know this video came out before then, but I only just came across it. Gosh this would’ve been so fulfilling to her. To us. So much closure to all these old myths of my childhood. Some people might think it silly to have childhood memories this deep around a video game, but I see it as something so much deeper. She taught me life lessons around having Courage, Wisdom, and Power. Looking back, this was such a perfect thing to raise me on. I wish she could’ve seen this. She’s gone now but I hope that somehow, someway, she maybe watched this with me. And she remembers those same feelings, and maybe feels the way I do now. I miss you so much grandma. I love you. And I’m gonna play this with my son now so maybe someday he feels this feeling that I feel now, and someday feels as good as I do right now. I love you miss you. Thank you for spending so much time with me.

There's a magic in them, like no other, and that magic is multiplied immensely by sharing the experience with loved ones!

I wanna see a TASBot beat all of Ocarina of Time by itself, with minimal human input. I'm certain it's possible if you make enough contingencies and TAS movies in order to get that particular outcome. Speedrunners will (likely) always be better than machines at these games I'm sure, but seeing that a TAS could beat the game too with hardly any human input would be a major feat of technology.
@Sauraen 27 күн бұрын
It's not possible on unmodified hardware, at least not with the typical definition of a TAS (sequence of prerecorded inputs). The console has two different clocks, one for the video output and one for everything else. They can drift relative to each other due to thermal and even quantum effects--this is not just practically unpredictable, but theoretically unpredictable. Lag frames in unexpected places cause a TAS to desync, the visual effects in Kokiri Forest cause lag frames based on their behavior, their behavior is based on RNG, the RNG is based on the CPU's cycle counter, and if the video clock is at a slightly different rate than it should be, a different number of CPU cycles will have elapsed between video frames. During the development of Triforce% I made a 15-second long TAS where Link just walks out of his house and into a different house across the forest. When played back on console, he misses the other house's door and walks into a wall. It's really that bad. Now theoretically it would be possible to make an AI-assisted program which plays the game live by watching the video output, with prerecorded strategies for certain tricks. That wouldn't be a TAS by the normal definition, but it would be a "tool-assisted speedrun".

I started my first comment here the last days because i felt responsible to post my words here, even if im late with my words,i wanted to post this. No other event would be able to make me give such detailed words Above all i just heard about this Run now not earlier :-( But THIS fullfilled my deepest wishes. -----> im 37 years old now, and my early childhood started with Zelda To be exact with OoT. While i write this words i know here is a bunch of people which feel the same like me, here and understand me in 100% We all know this days there was no internet and all z-fans over the world were not able to communicate, only nearby friends at shool or neighbourhood. I played lonely OoT at home , becaue my friend didnt try hard this game and gave it to me, he didnt even find the sword. After i did he couldnt believe and sit on his bicycle to join me at home in this adventure . The meeting of the dekutree the music and the feeling was fascinating. And THEN the possibility to leave the kokiri village, and you begin to realize there is so much more outside in this world. Every area every person you met every song you learned had bring you closer to this people and there story YOU was the boy who weld together the fate of all characters in hyrule. So the epic side quests the weapons and try to get in areas which were always locked,BUT AVAILABLE My biggest wish was enter the gerudo area as child , i tried with so much tricks. And the mystery of the zora ice , and all other hidden secrets. I would write an 10 hours comment , but i want to make it short :-). All the things which you showed us in this run : im sure i felt it these days 20 or more years ago THAT this was there somewhere in this game. And what you did completed my Childhood. That was what i waited for, even if i didnt really know that i waited for this . Thank you for this work ,no i mean masterpiece , i can only repeat Its really like tell someone Santa Claus is real.

The playground rumors about OoT always claimed that there was some secret set of in-game actions you could do which would unlock a magical alternate ending. Though none of us knew it at the time--especially not Nintendo--that turned out to be true: that set of actions was the Arbitrary Code Execution exploit, and then using controller input to manipulate the console's memory to create the ending we all wanted. When I first got the modified BotW Link model running on the N64 around November 2021, it felt surreal, like something out of a different reality. I can only imagine how it would have felt to see this in 1998. We were not able to release some of the assets like the BotW characters, to avoid legal problems from Nintendo. But we have released most of it, and if you have Linux experience, you can compile a romhack version that's mostly playable but has some missing content. Keep in mind though that this was created to be an ACE performance, the romhack version is just sort of a side output that happened to come from it.
