The commentary helped me understand many of the mechanics of this game that have flummoxed me over the years since I got this game and my N64 back in Christmas of '99. Mostly those regarding the engine upgrades and pit droids.

This is easily one of my favorite TASes ever. I've been wondering what perfect play of this game, taking all of the fastest skips and shortcuts possible, even the unintended ones, for over a decade before I found out that TASes were even a thing! It was super amazingly exciting and suicidal all the way through! The developer commentary was also very informative. Thank you so much for this work of art!
@GreenZinfidel3 жыл бұрын
Thank you, and I'm glad you enjoyed the commentary! If you want to see more TASing action of this game, the SWEP:1 Racer speedrunning community has made a few individual course TASes you can check out. Check the submission notes for a discord link.

@@Wolfenstein1942 This comes down to the TAS having a less healthy top speed upgrade for the first race, therefore being slightly slower compared to the run you are talking about. The gameplay in this TAS is immaculate.

@GreenZinfidel3 жыл бұрын
This video was rendered with a modified framebuffer (4k), so the resolution is much higher than an N64 would actually output. The textures however are courtesy of the N64 Expansion Pak - the game had really impressive texture quality when it was present.

@@kaihedgie1747 there is one hard track in this game, that is 4-2 the abyss. I mean, it's not 'hard' it's just bullshit. If you fall off the upper catwalk (and it's really easy to fall off) it's impossible to win, as the bottom catwalk takes you through the scenic route that's twice as long. And you have to do this 3 laps in a row. I beat this one using Mars Guo. It's a bulky racer with slow turning speed but this is exactly what I want for this track. Slow down on that catwalk and pass it.

There are all sorts of out-of-bounds tricks that can be done that I didn't do in this TAS! You just have to have better upgrades than I was able to acquire for some of the maps and so I wasn't able to do them. I don't know all of the skips personally but if you check out the ep1 racer discord you can find info on loads of 'em.

So what is this category: "finish the last track in the game, from a new save file" or something? From what I remember there's a shitload of races in a full playthrough so that kind of TAS might not be feasible but I'm not really sure I understand what's being shown off here, sorry.

It's any%, which means get to the credits as fast as possible from a new game start. The only way to get to the credits in this game is to complete the Galactic Circuit, one of the three initially available circuits. Completing every race in all 4 circuits would be a 100% playthrough, of which a TAS does not exist (yet).

Please UPLOAD !!! ps: front view + mini map if possible

Hello, That's awesome! I played this game a long time ago (in a galaxy far far away) And I bought it on switch recently So I had a question: Can you please, if possible, update a run in ~"FIRST POV", like a FPS (I prefer the view without the engine personally)... Or at least, juste a track ? That's more difficult to control, but when you play like this, the sensation of speed is increased and I very like it (when I'm not eating a wall at full speed^^) But once again, that's incredible, and thank you again for this TAS run !
