wind waker forest water graphical glitch

You mentioned some stuff about dying while conducting mugg. I'm sort of curious as to how you even managed to do that lol, but also if anything interesting happened.

[mugg]

If the expiration message appears when you pull out the wind waker, everything in your environment isn't frozen while you conduct the song. So you can take damage (from a bomb, for example).
-> If you take damage before you finish the song, the song is not played.
-> If you take damage during the repeat of the song, the "you played a song" message is stuck on the screen until you play a song normally or leave the area. If you get a forest water expiration message now, the game is locked up since you can't clear the text message and Link is frozen. The game also locks if you talk to people.
-> What I want to test is what happens if you take damage while a song takes effect (takes you to the warp selection or wind direction selection)
Other than that I think there's not much special about this left to explore..

Does anyone know the exact inputs for ledge clipping via a bomb? I can't seem to get it in the right place/ grab the ledge in time to clip. Most videos I've found of it drop the bomb extremely quickly and backflip and leaf, but I can't replicate it.

This guy has some nice TWW vids.


I have been trying superswim without forest water. But I haven't been able to go far. My main problem is that I often push the stick down and slightly left/right instead of perfectly down.
If I manage to create some kind of rail to avoid stick deviation I'm quite sure superswim would be accessible.

I've seen both of these, and I just don't see where this would fit with a run. Great usage of storage, but the time it takes to get it is amazingly long.

[Majora MIM]

Yes I know.
With superswim you can get quickly to Forest Island. With good timing you may use storage 2-3 times.

FF1 stuff: I've been working on some stuff, and I think the best route is to shut off the searchlights on the wall and stick hover to a heart on the sidle ledge. should put us right next to the sword

[Abahbob]

We still need to do the Tetra text, atleast with the current route. Still may be possible if you keep the stick by jumping onto the wooden boat, then hovering, but I don't know where to get damage.

[Majora MIM]

I already did it. Jumping on the wooden boat takes 1/4 heart then you have to sidehop and mash B to start hovering.

you recorded it? I made a video but if you've got one then there's not much point in me uploading. I also have a load of sword skip stuff too using the hover.

[Majora MIM]

I have no vid of it.

[Abahbob]

Majora, you mean that you activated the tetra text so that it fixes bombs early, then hovered with the same damage? Im slightly confused

Also, my post wasn't to say I just discovered the stick hover, my point was, after timing it and weighing up other routes, that it's our best option.

you'd have to go down to trigger the tetra text before shutting off the lights, then go up to the tower and shut it down, and then jump off to take  fall damage and start the stick hover (fall damage is needed for stick hover, any other damage will cause link to drop it)

[Abahbob]

Oh okay, didn't know about fall damage being needed. I wonder if landing in the trigger zone (which I don't think I could easily do) while taking damage would count as the CS being watched. More stuff that I need to test, which I pretty much never will.
