I finally will a decent amount of free time for the next week, so I'll likely join the next one. I really would like to know when the task will be posted. When I first saw your original OoT/MM TAS Competitions, I wished I could have participated. I was relieved when I saw a task 4, but that thread died fast. I realized you had started a V3 after the first new task finished, only it was too late to join the second (as I still needed to know how to rerecord, but I think I understand now).

I would make my own competition if this one were to die out (if only I could do so)

I demand another task!!! These are very fun to do Smiley
I agree, but I haven't done one yet, so I have yet to see how fun making one is.

Ok, so I've never TASd and I won't be anytime soon, but I would like to ask a few questions.

How long do these minute-long TASes take to make? You guys always say 'anyone who has time,' so it seems like it takes a few hours at least. Also, what is the difference between Project 64 and Mupen? It seems most of you prefer Mupen, so is it better for TAS or something?

Depends on how well you want to do it. One minute of a gameplay probably takes anywhere from 1-5 hours, depending on what is being done, how well you want to do it, how efficient you work, etc. If you're willing to drop the quality, and work fast, you could certainly do it in less.

Project64 is a much better emulator than mupen, but unfortunately you cannot tas with it.

Hello. I have never TAS'd Ocarina of Time (successfully) before, but I want to atleast try it. I have TAS'd Super Mario World, Mario 1 and Zelda:AoL before, so I understand the concept of TASing. The main problem I'm going to have is TASing in the 3rd dimension, I'm not used to it xD But I want to atleast try it. I'll be sure to join in on the next one.

School and the good weather made me totally forget the competition. I still haven't good any good ideas for a new task. Once I come up with something i'll start a new task as soon as possible.

If someone comes up with a nice goal he is welcome to share it. It should preferably be an OoT task and if possible Adult Link should be used. Even if your idea differs from this condition, please still post it Wink

I can see coming up with a task will become much harder, as most possibilities are now either:

a) already pretty much optimized
b) already done
or
c) have no room for creativity

Coming up with a new one may require being creative with the task rules.

Maybe one of these would be good (feel free to modify these):

Entering for the first time and as Adult Link, Enter the Sacred Forest Meadow and start the Minuet Cutscene. Nayru's Love, and Hover Boots are prohibited.

Entering Death Mountain Trail from Kakariko Village as Adult Link, grab the (so and so) Heart Piece(s) from Death Mountain Crater. Magic beans, Bolero of Fire, and Nayru's Love are prohibited.

Can we make it something "easy" for me? I have never TASed OOT before. and I want something that I could DO. Something that doesn't require a whole lot of...stuff like the Gerudo Valley heart piece one. Maybe something like...hm...

From to Death Mountain Trail entrance into Goron City (IE. not from the Lost Woods). Get the double magic meter upgrade. No Goron Tunic (though I suppose it won't REALLY be necessary...), no Hammer. Ideas? I've never TASed, so maybe there's some TAS only thing that makes this violently easy, but either way, try not to make it INSANELY hard for me. Also, where can I learn some basic OOT TASing information. Like exactly how frames do I need to start my roll for a megalip/superslide and so on. If im being an annoying noob you can just shoo me away xD

I can't help you with the superslide info (I can't do them no matter how much I try), but here's what I'm using for TASing Megaflips, Z-Slides and A-Slides off a bomb: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-2nRs2FZQE

For the Megaflip, backflip when the frame arrives where you have to decide what you're going to do next (unlike the slides, I suggest you keep your shield up until your out of the explosion's range).

How about getting a 100% Ice Cavern (three skulltulas, heart piece, and boots) without restrictions? Sounds like it would be a lot of fun IMO, but it might be a bit too heavy in terms of planning.

I'd try any task, but I'd need an .st file as none of my saves are anywhere near prepared for any competitions... damn my time available for this is dwindling rather fast, so if I am to participate I need something to be decided on quick.  Sad

I probably wouldn't join if its 100% Ice Cavern...mainly because I only know where two of the skulltulas are off hand xD I think I know where the Heart Piece is...but again, im not entirely sure. I never liked the Ice CAvern, so I'd just go in, get the boots and get out. I MIGHT join though, don't expect anything awesome though lol

If I can download a ROM and figure out how Mupen works in time I'll probably join. It seems emulators will be all I have left since I've been forced to suspend my MM 100%. Like Kzar, you shouldn't expect much from me yet. I know almost no timesavers in OoT, and certainly none in the Ice Cavern. I'll have to practice finding the optimum frame for the backflip during wall hovering, look up TAS exclusive timesavers, and still find time to write my fanfic (and of course get through school -_-).
