Title: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Pokey on July 23, 2012, 07:34:52 PM I've had this idea for a task for a while and have ideas for more tasks so let's watch another competition fail after just a few or no tasks!!!
Task 1 Enter Zora's Domain from Zora's River, enter Zora's Fountain, Kill both Gold Skulltulas(You do not need to collect the tokens), and finally enter Jabu Jabu's Belly. Timing starts at the frame you get control over link and ends the first frame "Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly" is visible. Nayru's Love is banned. You must King Zora skip. Here's a savestate: http://www.mediafire.com/?9aanuae3kwpbsf2 (http://i.imgur.com/B22vH.jpg) If you want to submit then send me a personal message on these forums containing a download link to the .m64 and .st (preferably mediafire) or send it to me in PM on IRC.

Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Pedalpowertoast on July 23, 2012, 07:59:46 PM Thats one nice looking pic Pokey :)
(maybe Pop can delete his thread ;D) Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: MTA on July 23, 2012, 08:05:04 PM i'll join ;)
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Pokey on July 24, 2012, 02:32:44 AM I think there is some confusion. You do not need to collect the tokens of the Gold Skulltulas. You just have to kill them.
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: lilkcough1 on July 24, 2012, 02:51:46 AM In. When's the due date?
Edit: Is anyone else having trouble with the provided savestate, or is it just me? Edit 2: Your savestate is for the U version, but can I still use J? that's why I was having trouble. Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Pokey on July 24, 2012, 09:27:07 PM In. When's the due date? Edit: Is anyone else having trouble with the provided savestate, or is it just me? Edit 2: Your savestate is for the U version, but can I still use J? that's why I was having trouble. The due date will be like August 5th. Please use U so all look the same. *ocd* Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: lilkcough1 on July 24, 2012, 09:48:55 PM ok. I'll use U. Has the savestate you provided already been to zora's domain and fountain? If not, are we allowed to before we record so that we don't have to go through the cutscene for the 2 areas in the middle of the TAS? or is it required to watch that cutscene?
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: lilkcough1 on July 27, 2012, 10:34:57 PM August 5th? I'll need a few extra days. I'll be gone from the 31st through the 6th and have no access to my computer. I'll also need the extra time because I'm slow at TASing :/
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: TimpZ on July 29, 2012, 01:53:17 AM Is it possible to reach the 0.0.0 position there?
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: lilkcough1 on July 30, 2012, 04:13:01 PM I'll either have to drop out or need a fairly large extension. I had a lot of trouble in my TAS, and I'll be gone for a week, so I'll probably need a week-ish extra to finish.
Edit: I'm not seeing much interest in this competition. I don't want to waste my time finishing this if no one else is joining. Please tell me this isn't just a huge waste of my time. Edit again: If I don't see someone post that people will actually do this competition, I'm not finishing my entry. Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Implicit on September 10, 2012, 09:59:12 PM It looks like no one here really did anything, so if you are going to restart this competition I will be in for this challenge.
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: lilkcough1 on September 11, 2012, 01:04:21 AM @implicit: Of course no one participated. I unfortunately didn't realize until I was almost done with it, but this was just pokey being his usual troll self. There won't be a TAS competition. I might start one up if I actually get some support.
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Implicit on September 11, 2012, 01:15:36 PM I hope someone does, I'm planning to get into TASing but there are no challenges for me to practice in, and I know very few TAS-only tricks and I'm not skilled enough to get a decent time on a full game run. I'll support you if you start one.
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Hornlitz on September 11, 2012, 02:29:51 PM I'd support too. The one I did with Grunz was really fun, even though I got last place, so O'd love to do another one :P
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: lilkcough1 on September 12, 2012, 08:42:15 PM I'd love to do one, but I've been kinda busy recently with school just starting up. I could probably handle doing it, but I need ideas for a task.
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Czar_Yoshi on September 29, 2012, 07:28:59 AM I'd love to do one, but I've been kinda busy recently with school just starting up. I could probably handle doing it, but I need ideas for a task. How about... Starting at the entrance to BotW, get to B3fl and kill all the ReDeads? Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: lilkcough1 on September 29, 2012, 02:47:14 PM @Czar_Yoshi, I already started a task on this thread: http://forums.zeldaspeedruns.com/index.php?topic=1170.0 That's an interesting idea, though. I never would've thought of that.
Title: Re: Not Another TAS Competition Post by: Czar_Yoshi on October 02, 2012, 03:14:36 AM I'll keep that in mind for next time someone needs a task, then. I'm interested myself to see what people would do to them, would it be faster to OHKO all of them with Deku Sticks, or would you try something like ESSing into them with ISG active? That would be hard because you'd have to avoid targeting them, but it would be cool to watch.
I've got a few other ideas, too. |
