Title: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 06, 2013, 11:12:16 PM So OoT and such have puzzle races or w/e, so I was thinking of making one for TWW. Not necessarily a race, but I was thinking just Forbidden Woods with some limitations. It would start from a save inside of Forbidden Woods, and would end either entering the warp, getting the heart container, or getting the boss key. They would be recorded and submitted to me as an unlisted youtube video. Anyone interested?
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: rust45 on January 07, 2013, 12:38:25 AM Sounds interesting, depending on the goals I would probably participate.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Yashichidsf on January 07, 2013, 01:37:43 PM best submission gets featured in the tas
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Vulpone on January 08, 2013, 09:46:51 PM yes do it
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 09, 2013, 02:03:07 AM Okay, I'll start working on it. I have some crazy ideas, but I'll have to test if it's even possible :P. I won't be giving any help either.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Nook on January 09, 2013, 09:05:41 PM Sounds great, I'm in.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Yashichidsf on January 10, 2013, 01:40:52 PM so it this like a TAS thing or an RTA thing
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 10, 2013, 10:49:12 PM RTA.
EDIT: Okay, I'm writing this up. Should get it done soon-ish. Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 12, 2013, 01:49:11 AM Here we go: http://pastebin.com/FDfrqziF
Quote Forbidden Woods Puzzle: Do not stream attempts or discuss routes please. Any version is allowed (NTSC-U, NTSC-J, PAL) Goal: Receive the Boss Key File should start saved inside of Forbidden Woods. Nothing should be altered inside of Forbidden Woods before starting. Restrictions: No more than 4 hearts and single magic. No more than: http://i.imgur.com/nBj35.png All bottles must be empty and may not be used. Grapple Hook may not be used at any time. Tingle Tuner may not be used at any time. Deku Leaf may not be used in this room at all: http://i.imgur.com/kKHUd.jpg Only one chest may be opened (Not including boss key chest). Submitting: You may only submit twice, so make sure you have it as optimized as you want. Send me a message on ZSR with an unlisted youtube video. Timing will be from loading the file until the boss key chest is opened. I would like all recordings to be done with Amarec or whatever provides footage without dropped frames. Using handcamera's, webcams, etc are fine as well, just not preferred. I don't want anyone to not be able to participate because of a lack of a capture card. I will allow TAS submissions, but they will be judged separately, as I don't really expect many/any anyways. Don't look for loopholes guys. If you aren't sure, ask me privately. Have fun with this. All submissions are due by February 1st. Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: rust45 on January 12, 2013, 04:39:03 AM March 1st, dang, you're expecting us to think about this for a while.
Also, what about Dolphin? Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 12, 2013, 04:53:40 AM March 1st because AGDQ is going on and I don't really want to rush people. Actually, that is quite a while. How does February 1st sound? About 2 1/2 weeks sounds fine to me.
Dolphin should be fine if you are can get a framedump. That way it's at full speed for playback. It doesn't really need to be a .dtm playback file. If you can play at 95-100% speed it should also be fine with a screen region. Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Pedalpowertoast on January 12, 2013, 10:39:55 AM Are noobs like me allowed or is only the winner count?
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 12, 2013, 10:07:41 PM Anyone and everyone should try.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Nook on January 13, 2013, 06:03:11 PM Would you like us to time it or will you be timing it yourself?
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 13, 2013, 08:45:06 PM I'll time it myself, but you should also time it so you can get your fastest run.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Whatsoup on January 14, 2013, 04:31:43 AM Yeah, I definitely want to try this.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: rust45 on January 15, 2013, 07:49:44 AM When it's all said and done, will you compile all the attempts into a video? Or will it be up to us to just list the videos and share them as we please? Cause it would be nice to see the difference in route ideas some of us might of had.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Gords on January 21, 2013, 04:57:34 AM is obtaining the boomerang and using it allowed?
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 21, 2013, 11:31:41 PM Yeah, it's fine. You just can't start with it.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Razor7581 on January 23, 2013, 01:09:03 AM Early bombs makes this ridiculously easy you know, or am I missing something?
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on January 23, 2013, 04:45:25 AM You can't use bombs. Only the shit in the picture. With bombs it's way too easy.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Gords on January 30, 2013, 07:27:34 AM so how many people have actually done this?
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Yashichidsf on January 30, 2013, 04:23:20 PM at least one has (not me)
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Whatsoup on January 31, 2013, 06:26:48 AM Alright, uploaded mine. I'll skype/PM you the link Abahbob.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: rust45 on February 02, 2013, 07:15:55 AM Is it alright to unlist/share our submission videos now?
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on February 02, 2013, 07:52:06 PM I'll post them all in a moment.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Whatsoup on February 03, 2013, 09:19:38 PM Will there be more puzzle races like this? It was pretty fun.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on February 06, 2013, 03:01:20 AM 1st: Demon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVmxYYjP_KM
2nd: Rust45: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbpCUoMI0iQ&f 3rd: Whatsoup: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNUxp_u2v_k 4th: Gords: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtwblQ_2nOI Special shoutouts to Rust45's first submission. The route blew my mind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-LcQbUIbqQ I didn't expect that in any way. Great puzzle, I may have to think of another one some time. Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: rust45 on February 06, 2013, 04:49:02 AM I love how we all had our own setup for getting the stick past the door. Gords' was probably the best stick setup just for entertainment value.
Anyway, congrats Demon, I thought I had a perfect route, but your movement is too good. Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Demon9 on February 06, 2013, 09:08:39 AM It's fun seeing how we found all those new cool clips and stuff, nice challenge!
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Razor7581 on February 08, 2013, 12:46:29 AM We definitely need to do more of these.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Multisnivy on February 20, 2013, 11:13:37 PM i had an idea for a puzzle race! it would be a race starting from earth temple and seeing how fast u can get through using any glitches except miniboss skip and stone slab skip ;)( getting storage and sidling past stone door)
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Abahbob on February 23, 2013, 06:37:46 AM That's not really a puzzle since it has a pretty straightforward route.
Title: Re: Puzzle Race/Goal/idk Post by: Multisnivy on February 24, 2013, 06:47:26 PM :'( then maybe doing wind temple but using the hookshot only in the boss room ;)
