We used Online Multiplayer to get the World Record in Mario Odyssey

SmallAnt and I used the new Online Multiplayer mod in SMO to try and get the any% world record. Will we get it? Well, the title spoiled it so you can guess.

[@berenbuckets4724]

It’s crazy how good any% guys are. Like this is two people collecting moons at the same time and it is only 7 seconds faster than record

[@potatobearsmo]

True. I will personally not be satisfied until this is faster than 1P/intended 2P TAS. When it is, though, it will be one of the greatest speedruns ever.

[@KingBoo97]

Considering the huge advantage multiplayer is, beating the TAS alone wouldn't nearly deserve it being called one of the greatest runs ever. It wouldn't be close to the level of greatness of Tyron's 57:21 in standard any% for example. If Tyron and Mitch decided to do online runs together and grinded it for a very good time, that could be one of the greatest runs ever.

It was stated he pretty much had to reverse engineer and figure out what the game code was since that's obviously no where outside Nintendo. He accidentally figured it out and just has been working to improve it so it can work with minor issues.
