[TAS] N64 F-Zero X "Jack Cup, Time Trial" by jagg2zero in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2016-08-30
F-Zero X is the 3D sequel to the popular SNES hovercraft racing title. It offers a wide array of cars, tracks and play options, and has had an active speed-running community ( fzerocentral.or... ) since its release in 1998.
This TAS completes the 6 tracks of the Jack Cup in time trial mode, where you choose any track to drive solo aiming for fastest possible completion of 3 laps according to the in-game timer, accurate to the millisecond. A special input sequence is used to unlock all cars (you normally unlock cars by playing in grand prix mode).
This TAS saves 1'10"614 (in-game track totals) over the previous Jack Cup TAS ( tasvideos.org/... ) by Lord Tom ( tasvideos.org/... ). For a per-track comparison, check the author's comments ( tasvideos.org/... ).

I didn't know F-Zero was a flight simulator

[@MsAmber82]

More like a kamikaze simulator

[@frijolitoazul4343]

That's why it's closely related to star fox

[@S.M.Jean-Mahmoud_Ier]

Wait... You thought F meant Formula ?

[@kevinr.9733]

I like how most of these have you flying all over the map, but Silence is just... driving the track in a way almost approximating normal.

[@crawfy48]

And casuals think that this is the *fast* track...

[@joshsmith2021]

Fastest track is prob fire field

[@csolisr]

Because of course the rocket powered antigravity machines could take the track as a mere suggestion.

[@joshsmith2021]

Their plasma powered machines but yes they do have jets/boosters at least you didn’t call them cars

[@andrewpitre8670]

Man I wanna play F-Zero like that too!

[@Blueniter]

@QUAD849 It is actually possible by human hands. Not sure how exactly but there is one full tutorial video explaining everything for 1 hour and much more different strategies.

[@philiproe1661]

I swear this TAS fellow is amazing! He can set world records in a way that makes it look easy!

[@kevinr.9733]

When you have near-total control and mastery over time itself like he does, you can make a lot of things look easy.

Announcer: You got boost power! Me, flying through the sky:

(5:39) That's a photo finish

Lol I dunno, seems like it's working pretty well 😆

[@DMMDestroyer]

2:18 Finished their last race

[@Damian_1989]

Now i really want to see the Queen, King and Joker cups

[@ericdanielski4802]

Nice TAS.

[@SmoggyLambGG]

YOU'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!

[@bkjamesot918]

5:40 Falls off course, victory music plays. Explodes. "way to go!"

[@0rphaneye]

Well. Go figure, I guess. Rocket jet flying cars can... fly.

[@JoLiKMC]

The only way I can believe this is even remotely possible would be if this TAS were using James McCloud and the Little Wyvern. At least then, the machine *launching into orbit* would sorta make sense. d:

[@MK1MonsterOck1989]

uploaded on my birthday! =)

Happy birthday!

[@yoyoprofessorxavier]

The game manipulation for these runs is out of this world literally.

[@cobalt9441]

How do you even figure out how to do that kind of stuff? That's insanely cool.

Imagine seeing this in 1997

[@gregstar2091]

By all that is holy!

[@YOYlS]

TAS such a skilled player, clapclapclap he's dang awesome. someone saw his photo, he said he's a handsome one!!

[@stevenpavelish6017]

Gotta go fast!

[@guttaknight64]

how is this even possible dude was literally flying backwards in Port Town

[@SmoothOthello]

The other 29 racers: this is bullshit! Also there is a speed limit for this game, 3000km/h

[@graduator14]

Watch at 2 times speed for a more accurate race!

[@MrBroken030]

does this mean f zero x got a space flying category? :D

[@1gnore_me.]

holy SHIT

[@kathrynpowys600]

That's my favourite car Twin Noria

[@kip258]

I'd just like to point out that you don't see TAS flying around in F-Zero GX.

[@nicocchi]

oh trust me GX TASes are just as insane. Ever wanted to see Captain Falcon have a seizure in real time? A small price to pay to go 8 times the speed of sound.

[@timemine6107]

Jack

[@ericdanielski4802]

Absolutely.

[@EmmaIndoril]

I.... Cannot..... believe.... What i Saw ! 😭

[@gokuworld]

Damn doing this in a tournament

[@garlic-os]

Why was this republished 6 years later

[@the_kovic]

I believe they are re-rendering old N64 TASes with new graphics plugins that produce more accurate graphics

[@cabbusses]

When are we getting the George Jetson mod?

[@browndiddly2659]

That is a very good question.

[@-consul]

huh, i guess the cars in this game also count as planes

[@joshsmith2021]

Actually they are (puts finger on glasses) plasma powdered machines. Not cars haha lol all in good fun tho

[@1gnore_me.]

I love video games

[@teruteru4446]

[@harrisonmoore3841]

"YOU'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!!!" Am I?

[@harrisonmoore3841]

Where we're going, we don't need 'ways.'

[@RusticTrophies]

"You got boost power!" Is not really that impressive of a line here.

[@beefusdoesstuff5194]

I *AM* BOOST POWER

[@randombutler]

That's uh not supposed to be how you do that
