SM64 - The 255 Coin Limit

In this video, I explain everything there is to know about the 255 coin limit and the 999 coin limit. Within a course, your coin score can go up to 999 and will then stop. But when it saves, it will only save the lower 8 bits of your coin score, and so the coin score that gets saved is your coin score within the course modulo 256. Consequently, the maximum coin score that can be saved is 255.
I then go through the courses and explain what the maximum coin score would be within each of them.
At the end, I show a glitch I found that works as follows: if you clone a bob-omb and release it as the bob-omb is exploding, the bob-omb will walk around in an enlarged state.

[@Codricmon]

The annoying part about this for Pannen is that every time he exits a course, his KZbin name gets changed to "pannenkoek220".

[@empyreum6869]

Well, assuming the pannenkoek trinary name limit only saves 4 trits, He has a maximum saved trinary name value of 80 (Shout out to PC Simo). Assuming he wants to come back and do his next video with his original name we can calculate how many times he would need to exit a course for pannenkoek2012 to bring us another video. If only we had the number for the amount he already has exited a course ,we could approximate the next time he would become pannenkoek2012 again. naturally this wouldn't take very long but i guess the reason for his delay is that his whole name:pannenkoek2012 is a part of an even bigger 29 cypher name value system. TLDR: He might be trapped in Pannenkoek Limbo!

6 years later and that final tick tock clone is still the sickest thing i’ve ever seen

[@QuarioQuario54321]

The Japanese version goes beyond 999 in the counter, to 1023 at the least, and 65,536 at the most

[@ViviBlue-db2br]

QuarioQuario54321 yes because of a glitch it goes to 65,000 ish because of the hex dec so you can make multiple coin stars but this is irrevivant because faster glitches have been found

[@QuarioQuario54321]

Vivi23 Blue23 It's actually signed so the counter will go to -32768 once you get your 32768th coin. The number displayed will not change then. You cannot use this to get 121 stars by collecting 65,636 coins.

[@TheMrKeksLp]

1024 is 2^10. Why would you store a 10 bit number?

[@samelsby3333]

Doesn't the lifes go -25 when you do that

[@infernocop982]

You're really good at explaining things. That was the best and most understandable explanation of binary ive seen

[@russiandoggo4336]

I love all of these videos and I wish you still made some. This game's mechanics are so interesting and know what makes it tick jut makes me appreciate it more

[@YaNoAwantoMas]

This blew my mind, I wasn't expecting it to be this good. You won yourself a subscriber :)

[@Randallroks]

Who needs school when you have this guy.

Your visuals can teach more than just understanding Mario. Someone could repurpose it solely to teach people how programming works in general. This is amazing!

Props for this video, man. You obviously put a lot of work and patience into making it. Thanks for sharing!

[@breadmilkYT]

From making a half hour video about the coin counter to making a nearly 4 hour video about invisible walls, you really came a *long* way!

[@8FootLongSoapBar]

Didn’t expect this to hold up 10 years later.

[@zad1212]

After all these years I get my question answered. Thanks Pannenkoek!

[@Applesgosh]

I don't know why I watched all of this.

[@Luckydeath973]

That was insane, idk how many weeks it took you to make al lthis footage for us to watch. thanks dude .

[@steam-powereddolphin5449]

I understood much (if not most) of this, but I got so deeply involved in the coin limits for each course that I *forgot* what I was even watching in the first place until the final table! xD

[@LinCrash]

Wow, that was theorically explained in so many ways, I even wouldn't figured this out by myself since I got the game on 2007. Guess this makes you the grand researcher of this game. Great job! We need some more of your discoveries to be shared!

[@MrFavorite01]

I've had this game since its release and I still never knew!

[@thatyoutubecritic8229]

Your voice is extremely soothing

[@DanielEDC]

This video was fantastic! Great job Pannen

[@trevrr]

i love how this gives off the same vibe as an algebra tutorial, makes me feel like I'm learning something useful

[@dirtydan6960]

What is cloning and how does it work?

What's up. I'm Pinhead Larry, and I'm gonna take you down!

[@metalheader9702]

I learned more from this video than i ever did in math class from high school

[@BigOlSmellyFlashlight]

I just learned the decimal system AGAIN. nice video anyways

[@ScienceBreather]

Dude, this is seriously amazing. Awesome work.

[@ZachCG]

NEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRDDD!!!!!! ...this was legitimately fascinating.

[@UltraJordanGaming]

Amazingly well thought out way of explaining it! ^-^

[@pannenkoek2012]

UltraJordanGaming Thank you!

[@UltraJordanGaming]

[@SRPhantoms]

This video deserves WAY more likes tbh. SO much effort was put into this

[@Naruto_from_the_Naruto_show]

This actually helps me understand computer science and programming logic. As a newbie to code, these videos are really cool

[@Josuh]

that is not naruto from naruto what da hell

[@Naruto_from_the_Naruto_show]

@@Josuh what a prankster that guy

[@GaryWarman]

I've been watching a ton of your videos lately... I just wanted to say, they're all absolutely amazing and a great use of my time, in my opinion. I always love when people go in and perform analysis on the deeper workings of some piece of software, or in this case,videogames. I especially love it from the perspective of someone addicted to watching TAS's and understanding the inner machinations of my favorite games. Also, I'm assuming that it's saving the score mod 256 because the actual coin score in the level is stored as an unsigned byte?

[@DamonVDAmore]

"Here's a data table" is my favorite phrase.

[@alexterra2626]

It has the same energy as “this is a bucket” from that TF2 video

[@boltstrikes429]

This was extremely educational! I might even get my teacher to show it to my class some day(even though half of them will be like "who's mario?")

[@enderGuardian46]

I found this video six years later and it was really helpful even though I have played SM64 only a few times many years ago.

[@tenchimuyo69]

I could never find a video on it, but I remember Cosmo posting a video about bypassing a blocked door in Ganon's castle in OoT by entering a room over and over. It reloaded glowing objects at the top of the room which are not deleted unless you leave the entire castle. Eventually, the game removes barriers due to lack of memory, allowing you to continue.
