The best explanation I've ever heard of TAS (particularly in response to irritating posters who complain about tools being used) is that it is the equivalent of filming a movie, while non-tool assisted speed runs are closer to competing in a sporting event.
@@kekula69iirc you Mario can enter them on console but the camera can’t. The 1-key 0 star TAS involves parallel universes and has been console verified. The issue comes about in certain areas where you can’t switch to locked camera. If the camera tries to go with Mario the game crashes. It was an issue for the 0 A press entrance for the Secret Aquarium since you can’t lock the camera inside the castle.
The RBI baseball ones I remember doing those little tricks and especially loved when the ball would get stuck in the crowd and the computer would try to throw the ball but it would hit the wall and just stay in the crowd while i'm rounding the bases.
3:14 This is the "Succubus Glitch". It can be done rather easily even non-TAS. What you have to do is use the Succubus soul while facing a wall, then while Soma is moving horizontally (from Frame 1 all the way to...I think my record is Frame 50? It's a LONG forgiveness window) you use High Jump and you essentially do a vertical "zip". This goes on as long as you'd like until you hit Suspend in the pause menu or use the Succubus soul again. It's great for glitching out map percentage. You can change directions with the D-pad and "move forward" by doing Sliding (Down+B)
It's a glitch in SMB3 that happens sometimes if you wag your raccoon tail the same time you collect a 1up. I thought it was an appropriate sound effect
I have a couple of objections to the intro spiel: 1) It's not completely fair to say that TAS runs are not about skill: not only there's definitely skill involved with setting up TAS, it's also important to note that TAS-runs often still involve a degree of skilfulness from the operators themselves. 2) It's also not entirely correct to say that games - or applications in general - are exclusively deterministic towards user-input, as beyond the pseudorandom sequences based on the delay between user input there are other, arguably more widespread sources of initial entropy for this, like time stamp counter. Of course, you can use far more arcane (and slow) sources of entropy like data on atmospheric pressure (or videostream of lava lamps), but these are mostly used for things like cryptography and not in the more widespread and fast calculations that would be utilised in usual software like games. TL;DR: there's likely still entropy source beyond user input for a game, which would make RNG not totally deterministic.
1) Well, true. It's a different kind of skill. 2) I was trying to make a really quick accessible explanation for people who aren't familiar with a TAS, so I couldn't really go into a gigantic explanation of every exception to the rule. If I made the explanation four minutes long, most people wouldn't stay to watch the actual entries. But your points are valid and are good discussion for those who are interested in exploring the idea further.
Can't wait for part two. There's a certain TAS run I hope you cover since it's both hilarious and mind blowing (and uses ABE on top of the typical TAS tricks).
ABE? Do you mean ACE, Arbitrary Code Execution All I can imagine out of ABE is Arbitrary Binary Execution, which isn't really possible, at least not without already achieving ACE, at which point the effort to write and run raw binary is generally very much Not Worth It compared to writing in what is usually hex commands and data
@@WeirdVideoGames The warp glitch ALTTP run should be the 100% TAS instead. It is so crazy and insane, you will be asking so many questions. Should include it for a part 3
The Final Fantasy White Mage tas is pretty funny, where you just spam the fear spell on the final boss, making him run away and you instantly win the fight
As someone who messed around with tool assisting a few years back, it absolutely involves an aspect of skill. I would say knowledge of how a game works at the level tasers play it at is a different kind of skill when compared to real time speedrunning skill. Some tasers are shit and some are god tier, and a game like Mario 64 really shows that well. That's why the major tases of that game have so many people that contribute to them.
There's a lot of cross-pollination as well, both in knowledge, but also in players, a number of TASers are at least casual runners of their game of choice, or well tapped into the community and theory, and plenty of TAS knowledge for big games crosses back and forth with real-time runners, Super Metroid has had multiple tricks turn from being considered TAS Only to being these things done regularly in WR attempts that are huge flexes of skill and execution TASes are a healthy part of a major game's scene and you can see a lot of creativity, system knowledge, and skill in them
I assume there is not the run from Heisane himself in it. Yeah, i have YET not forgotten about your wheel of fortune run with goofy (right) answers. ;)
The timing on the DSS card glitch in circle of the moon isn't that precise iirc, I used it regularly in my own playthrough (the emulator may have affected it, but I doubt it since it only had save states and i never used them with the glitch)
It is absolutely not that precise, you literally can do it at any point between pressing the button to start casting and Nathan assuming neutral stance again, super fuckin generous However the crazy clipping with the supermove is like a 2 frame trick iirc because it relies on the screen transition effect
The double dragon 2 TAS reminds me of the 1001 spikes TAS, except I think it's funnier because there are 4 players and they can all just hit each other with knifes to fly, and also stab at each other while occupying the same spot to lunge forward.
If regular speedruns are a triathlon of speed, dexterity and concentration, TASes are a marathon run. All you need is endurance, but you need tons and tons of it.
Oh no! It's supposed to show at the bottom but I messed up the editing. It's Super Mario Bros. 3 "All Levels" by Lord Tom & Tompa in 1:04:36.9. You can see it here ruclips.net/video/5Wj0uhNobjY/видео.html
This video was great. Thanks for sharing! I love those moments where meticulously developed code is borked by a human's irrepressible compulsion and unrivalled ability to dick around.
The fact that SF2 had hacked arcade consoles makes so much sense now. I remember playing one console back in the 90's, can't remember the character I chose but I was fighting against Zangief in his stage. Zangief did a grapple attack on my character, then the screen went into what I can only describe as a cutscene mode where it showed him banging my character's head against the chain link fence in the background (but from a different perspective than the normal stage view, like it was pixelated fan art with a black border). Then it went back to a normal view and the fight continued. To this day I've never seen that happen on any version of the game.
small correction to the intro: It's not generally true that you can manipulate luck in the games. A game might be using system random seeds which obtain randomness from hardware (mouse moves, CPU temperature, lots of other stuff) - this stuff cannot really be reasonably well affected/manipulated.
Fair, but most emulated games from old consoles can be manipulated this way. In fact, if you can't manipulate luck at all, you can't really TAS that game.
Most likely because most TASes are speedruns and most sports games are time-based so there's no real way to make them faster. It's tough to do a TAS that goes the full length of a sports game and keeps it entertaining the full way through. I always wanted to do something neat with NBA Jam since it's so wacky and exaggerated, but haven't come up with a lot of ideas. Good question.
1:36 "N64 - Super Mario 64 "All 120 Stars" by MKDashher, Nahoc, sonipacker, Bauru, Eru, Goronem, Jesus, Kyman, Mokkori, Molotov, Nothing683, pasta, SilentSlayers, Snark & ToT (2011-03-08)" This just shows how far the humanity is willing to go in pursuit of vain goals, just to prove what we are capable of. And that's what I love about being human; achieving vain goals with meaning only to oneself.
To be honest those SF2 Rainbow Edition moves aren't even strange, that's what playing the game was actually like... you could hop up from the bottom of the screen like that.
Your circle of the moon description is wrong. The card glitch isn't frame perfect at all, easy enough my eight year old self did it 24/7 Dracula can't actually attack as the AI is disabled in this instance He levelled up 24x bc it's the japanese version, other versions it's only 23. (you didn't say this, but for anyone curious)
You mentioned here that every TAS can be done on a real controller- that's not always the case. Sometimes TAS use inputs that would not be possible on a normal controller- like hitting two opposite directions at the same time. Just a point of order, fun vid.
Ive been on a RUclips speed running roll for last 3 days or so and its been one banger after another. I've got a ?..... A TAS is basically a tool that uses all the best feats of human players ever....right? If not how does the tool know what is n isn't possible like the Zelda glitch thru wall to credits?
Basically, what you do is save a state in your emulator and then move one frame at a time and try to do something perfectly. If you make a mistake, you load the state and try again. You can use this to test all kinds of things and see what is possible.
@@WeirdVideoGames so the complete tool assisted speedrun is made up of different frame perfect jumps and movements that humans were able to perform to create the full length TAS?? Thank you for the info. Trying to figure out if the tool comes up with the perfect strat or humans program the tool to do so
Neat analysis so far! Underappreciated video Also, man, Dracula was really boned at there, wasn't he, lol? Anyway, Inb4 Family Feud TAS in the next part! Thanks for uploading! On to Part 2!
You say that everything is done via normal buttonpresses but that is not entirely true. For example on some D-pads you can not press both directions at once but tasbot can
I would have picked none of these myself, except Rainbow Edition and maybe the Tony Hawk one. I like the Goldeneye ones where Bond draws funny stuff with bullet holes and headshots entire crowds of enemies just by spraying some bullets in their direction, that hilarious International Soccer one, that Family Feud one (but I understand why you didn't pick it), the Excitebike ones where jumps are so high that they loop back down to the bottom several times, I'm fond of the Takeshi's Challenge one where you enter a glitch heaven with endlessly spawning townspeople, I would definitely have to include an Arbitrary Code Execution TAS (probably that SMB3 one with Color A Dinosaur and the made-up powerups) and something from the Mortal Kombat series (off the top of my head I'm thinking Tournament Edition on the GBA), Super Mario 64 ones also tend to be quite funny, I'm probably forgetting a lot.
It's not exactly correct to say that TAS runs could be done with controllers by regular people - most runs are done through tools that slow the game down and have other useful effects in order to pull off tricks no person ever could achieve, like long strings of quite literally frame perfect inputs, glitches that require movements out of a human's reach or aren't even technically possible with physical controllers, and other impossible feats, as you even showed in the video itself.
Im pretty sure that some tas runs aint possible even as theoricly since somo of them input like 100 difrent movements in a frame to do something stupid
Maybe you're just exaggerating but it's not possible to do 100 different movements in one frame. Each frame only allows one input. The maximum you could do in one frame is press every single button at the same time.
@@WeirdVideoGames Well yes its exaggeration but there is still games where in tas runs you give multiple inputs per frame for some wierd bug. And yes you are right some games dont allow you to "multiple inputs per frame" meaning like giving the same input. But there are many that do like just open some clicker game and you can very well see you can input way more than one input per frame since if you couldnt and it would be tied to your 60 fps/ 30 on phones it would be kinda sad. Also theres the problem with like mario nes run where you need to input right and left at the same time but you cant do it because of the controller. So in essence it just depends how the game is coded. Does it take the sum of the inputs. Does it que them up for the next frame like one cool dupe bug in dying light. Or does it just read what the controller is pressing now.
Ah, that's interesting. Yes, most of my experience with TASes involve old consoles where you are just limited to one input per frame, whether that input is one button or 20 buttons. I was unaware of any TAS of a modern clicker game or the like. I'd be interested to see that.
@@WeirdVideoGames I dont have any experience in TAS. i have just seen the vids with break downs. Most of the the guestionable things are found in 3d games like i think in jak 3 you could just climb straight up if you just spammed the jump button and other things at the same time fast enough. I tryed to find some good examples with fast search but they are all embeded inside the speedrun explanation vids i couldnt find a clip.
1:05 this is completely false. A lot of, in fact, about half of all games have an RNG factor which makes it so that you can almost never do the same thing twice, I don’t even understand why you put this in your video.
The RNG in all these TASes works the same way every time, which is why the TAS works in the first place. Only extremely rare games cause desync issues that make a TAS impossible to do.
Lose the border and excess info on screen, looks kinda tacky and it takes away from the gameplay. Also I figured you would explain the tricks to any degree

TASbot doesn't work with everything. Emulation is not always perfect so trying to run a TAS on original hardware can be hit or miss.

And yes you are right some games dont allow you to "multiple inputs per frame" meaning like giving the same input. But there are many that do like just open some clicker game and you can very well see you can input way more than one input per frame since if you couldnt and it would be tied to your 60 fps/ 30 on phones it would be kinda sad. Also theres the problem with like mario nes run where you need to input right and left at the same time but you cant do it because of the controller. So in essence it just depends how the game is coded. Does it take the sum of the inputs. Does it que them up for the next frame like one cool dupe bug in dying light. Or does it just read what the controller is pressing now.
Ah, that's interesting. Yes, most of my experience with TASes involve old consoles where you are just limited to one input per frame, whether that input is one button or 20 buttons. I was unaware of any TAS of a modern clicker game or the like. I'd be interested to see that.
@@WeirdVideoGames I dont have any experience in TAS. i have just seen the vids with break downs. Most of the the guestionable things are found in 3d games like i think in jak 3 you could just climb straight up if you just spammed the jump button and other things at the same time fast enough. I tryed to find some good examples with fast search but they are all embeded inside the speedrun explanation vids i couldnt find a clip.

CORRECT

And...where are other 5?
To be continued
1:05 this is completely false. A lot of, in fact, about half of all games have an RNG factor which makes it so that you can almost never do the same thing twice, I don’t even understand why you put this in your video.
This counts especially in games where there are things like random falling obstacles that never do the same thing twice.
The RNG in all these TASes works the same way every time, which is why the TAS works in the first place. Only extremely rare games cause desync issues that make a TAS impossible to do.

Shame this has commentary. Should just be a collection of videos.
Shame this is a comment. Could have just been an emoji.
wrong brain age TAS. watch the one run at Games Done Quick
Lose the border and excess info on screen, looks kinda tacky and it takes away from the gameplay.
Also I figured you would explain the tricks to any degree
