I have a question that may seem slightly related to this: Can computers “learn” to make the perfect speedrun? Like... can a computer take past TASes, “learn” from them, and produce an even better TAS?

[@CrankyTomb]

Sonic? LUL (stuck on Mario atm myself =P)

[@gagefarris]

6:16 wait... BIOLLANTE!?

[@Madgod_Rando]

Does Sonic normally jump higher or is something being done in the tas to make him do that? Also what did you do at 5:54, that was crazy lol.

[@xwidghet]

Sonic jumps quite a bit higher than boshy, and also runs faster. At 5:54 there is a pixel where if you jump (Flip gravity) it will do a screen transition on the same frame while sonic is touching the ceiling without being killed by the spike. When this happens you are pushed into the block on the next screen which allows you to exit the maze at an "undefined" position. This causes the game to do a screen transition without changing your current position, allowing you to fall out of the maze. E.G. You are entering the previous screen at X:0 Y:25, and instead of doing a screen transition + Teleport to a flipped X/Y coordinate like usual, it only does a screen transition since the position you are entering from is not defined. This leaves you at previous screen at X:0 Y:25, rather than moving the X coordinate to the right side of the screen like usual. This is my understanding at least, I haven't asked solgryn about it.

[@yinan02]

I love how you decided not to kill any of the enemies in the mario fight

[@andre_601]

This is what I understand about this Speedrun so far: Go

[@SquallEvoker]

As far as TAS's go, this one, while it looks impressive, is actually poorly optimized. Could have shaved off a lot of frames by manipulating the RNG on Missingno, both in spawning him and especially his attacks. Also could have shaved frames using the world 4 save skip trick, as well as the Ganon dev button to freeze him in place. Also, if dying isn't an issue for the run, if you had died to Biollante, it would have skipped the tune at the end and save more time. Probably could have made a sub 19 run with those skips. I was impressed by the phase 2 SolGryn skip though, and overall it was a good run. Kudos for doing it and putting it up on the KZbins for us to enjoy.

[@SquallEvoker]

+SquallEvoker As an edit, it's not dying to Biollante, you just have to mute the sound.

[@YaelOG1]

*Uploaded 7 years ago*

[@xwidghet]

The video was not sped up, it's actually slightly slower than normal due to hourglass lag (the tool used to do the run frame by frame with save states). It's just that when you combine frame-perfect input accuracy with sonic's faster than normal running and higher jumps the game can be completed very quickly.

[@SleepyIceman6472]

7:32 Sonic fights himself

[@Weeb1367]

He went.

[@sambeauchot6822]

So that proves that normal sonic is much much stronger than super sonic

[@GamerLKP636]

4:20 - 5:22 I know this is a TAS and all BUT EVEN WITH SAVE STATES, HOW IS THAT HUMANLY POSSIBLE? lol

[@xwidghet]

I'm not 100% sure if this is a joke, but this was done with frame-advance as well which is what made it possible. The enemies move towards you slightly so doing it in real-time with only save states would be rather tedious.

[@GamerLKP636]

Oh, OK :P thx

[@jongyon7192p]

xwidghet I think he meant how a person playing normally would beat it. Or maybe not. Or maybe you knew and I misunderstood your answer. Whatever.

[@Cosmoing]

He doesn't do it because TAS, but you can actually kill all those monsters that spawn.

[@esdrasfernandes8660]

GamerLKP636 with TAS everything that is impossible turns possible, there´s 4 things that you forget about TAS;1:Frame-Advance,2:SlowDowns it allows you to slowdown the game as you prefer,3:SaveStates LoadStates and Re-Records to see what you´re gonna do and re-do it for you don´t make mistakes or fails to make your play PERFECT and 4: you can watch your tool assist speedrun seeing and renderizing it to make a best run than ever! ;)

[@OmegaIL]

Dude, u have to recreate this run with new-found tech. Unless it was already found and Sonic can't do it and I don't know stuff. People are flipping about recent 22 run, we need this new run 😃

[@xwidghet]

I wanted to have the run be sonic only, but because the snake section is literally impossible for him I had to do one character change to complete the run. But, the current version of hourglass does not support mouse input and it will not allow you to do it yourself when the run is being played back. This makes character changes impossible to tas, along with disabling the use of a saving through walls glitch. To complete the run I had to do the character changes non-tas, and splice them in.

All characters you can play as retain Boshy's hitbox, and for a few frames Ryu's foot goes higher off the ground leaving just enough space to stay underneath and not get touched.

[@RaceBandit]

Sorry if a comment already answered this years ago, but is the problem with W11 a bad interaction with the Cobrat?

[@xwidghet]

Yes, when using Sonic the Cobrat doesn't behave correctly making the segment impossible without a glitch. The glitch involves grabbing the window to make the game lag, and using that to shoot bullets through blocks to save jump. However, Hourglass doesn't support this so I was unable to progress without switching to Boshy.

[@zzzpoma9961]

Will you make new TAS% with double shot and better W4 skip?

[@xwidghet]

Not really planning to as hourglass has major problems with boss battles. If you use save states in certain places it ends up corrupting the graphics making it very difficult to see what you are doing, so some of the fights were done partially blind which is rather tedious and inaccurate from a TASing standpoint. If a better TASing software comes out, or hourglass is fixed, I'll probably do it.

[@whoami382]

This TAS, that is tool-assisted speedrun. Correct the key sequence, controlled by the program. Creator had zadrotit, but not as much as those who are hands (Translated)

[@Ducktape905]

Solgryn testing the game:

[@jay_cee583]

Very entertaining TAS, this must have been so much fun to make! How many frames long is it? I've been playing this game blind on stream for about a couple weeks now, and I have to say this might be the hardest and most addicting game I've ever played. IrelandofEndor is the guy who discovered the world 4 skip, and he says he found it by watching me play, because apparently I almost got it by accident in my blind playthrough. Go figure. =P

[@justforcomments167]

Btw, at 15:03 you could have just went over the pillars, skipping the entire screen basically. Just saying.

[@xwidghet]

I needed to hit the switch in order to skip all of the switches after it. If you skip the first switch you must get the second switch due to a long column of red blocks blocking your way, and it takes longer to get to the second switch.

[@justforcomments167]

ok, I didn't know that :)

[@justforcomments167]

I was just curious why xwidghet didn't skip that screen. I did have a feeling there was some detail that saved more time, it is a TAS after all. Every millisecond counts.

[@Fexzz]

Is the new World 4 skip possible with sonic? Could shave off another 10-20 seconds

[@xwidghet]

I don't see any reason for it not to work since the skip I used in this run is impossible for boshy, but I don't know if I'm going to revise this TAS since boshy isn't very friendly to reusing inputs.

[@1LoveGame2]

Is there a way to speedrun a game like this on windows 7 ?

[@DialektLp]

Try using Windows XP via VirtualBox

[@DialektLp]

If Hourglass doesn't work on 7

[@UltimaWraither]

i haven't played this game so I'll ask the stupid question, why did you switch to the warning sign in the desert?

[@xwidghet]

To complete that section you have to ride a snake, and for some reason when using Sonic the snakes physics do not allow you to complete the section even with frame perfect input. This forced me to complete it with the normal character Boshy, which looks like a warning sign.

[@UltimaWraither]

Ah, ok that makes sense then, i didn't understand why you'd switch to it for a pure sonic run but that explains it.

[@GamerLKP636]

Is the World 4 skip from the beginning of the world possible with Sonic, or was it found after this TAS?

[@xwidghet]

The new world 4 skip was found after this TAS, and is probably possible with sonic. I haven't tested it.

[@GamerLKP636]

xwidghet OK, do you think that the Kracko Skip that you did would be possible humanly?

[@xwidghet]

I've done it myself a few times so I don't think it would be too hard for someone to do it in a run if they practiced it. You have around 50 seconds to get the trick before you start losing time. However, it is sonic only as boshy will land on the right side of the spike with frame perfect input.

[@GamerLKP636]

xwidghet I'll try it whenever I beat Hello Kitty. I had to start the whole game over again because of something silly. I went into the World Warp that was right before Biolante (I had just spent a frustrating hour and a half playing through all of World 4). I saved in the Warp room, and it wouldn't let me warp back to Biolante. So, I deleted my file. :P But anyway, thanks for the awesome work and getting back to me on my questions so quickly. You've earned a new sub! (P.S. Have you ever considered doing a Boshy 100% TAS?)

[@xwidghet]

Sadly, the World of Warcraft area which leads up to the cheetahmen boss requires a mouse click which is not possible with the current version of Hourglass. This makes the 100% category impossible for TAS :(

[@Crixxxu]

Have you thought of making a new TAS with the world 4 skip could save you some time :)?

[@xwidghet]

Sadly boshy isn't very friendly to reusing inputs, due to rng and enemy placements being slightly different, so changing anything means redoing everything else. I currently have no plans to redo this TAS unless there's a lot of new cool things discovered.

[@Crixxxu]

xwidghet So its been a couple of months since ive been back to this video, hello again:P i was wondering which program you have used to tas boshy, since id like to try out tas'ing myself :)

[@viewtifulday]

[@xwidghet]

By delaying the start of the boss battle (When you press S to skip) even one frame the attacks that are used by random bosses change quite a bit. With missingno the best attacks would be to have a recover followed by wrap/splash. I was recently told that if you die after missingno dies the game still continues, so I may re-tas this section to try and defeat it in two-three attacks. I'm not sure if missingno can use the same attack multiple times, but I'll probably test it if I re-tas it.

[@TurnaboutAkamia]

I wonder why Solgryn decided to make Sonic's jump noise the springboard sound from Sonic 1 and 2 rather than Sonic's jump sound effect from either Sonic 1-3 or CD. Oh well.
