Title: Practice S3&K runs for SDA
Post by: yse on March 16, 2006, 03:41:01 am
Until I get Sonic Mega Collection (and I'll probably rent it to save me the trouble) this is what I'm limited to. I'll post the Gens+ files as soon as I finish the respective runs (they're for my own reference, and to give you a bit of a sneak peek of what to expect).

You're gonna enjoy these, trust me. ;)

First up is Knuckles: www.soniccenter.org/mike89/S3&K%20-%20Knuckles%20speedrun.giz (http://www.soniccenter.org/mike89/S3&K%20-%20Knuckles%20speedrun.giz) (40 minutes 11 seconds)

Sonic and Tails coming shortly. (With more tricks than this one, I must add.)

Aw, I was hoping for under 1:20 on MH2. :(

Didn't watch past SD1 though because I really wanna do Gamma on SADX. And I wanna play S3K myself though.

Didn't even know about that glitch in MG2... >_>

Completed Sonic earlier today:

http://www.soniccenter.org/mike89/S3&K%20-...%20speedrun.giz (http://www.soniccenter.org/mike89/S3&K%20-%20Sonic%20speedrun.giz) (56 minutes 47 seconds, with two deaths costing approximately 55 seconds in total) EDIT: the run at this link has finally been IMPROVED to 53 minutes 18 seconds! Just the one death on FB1... which I really don't like, but it'll do for the purposes of this exercise.

And complete with the Tails run now:

www.soniccenter.org/mike89/S3&K%20-%20Tails%20speedrun.giz (http://www.soniccenter.org/mike89/S3&K%20-%20Tails%20speedrun.giz) (50 minutes 44 seconds, deathless)

Apart from a couple of crappy mistakes, and the omission of the Leap of Faith, this is the best of the three and won't see as much improvement.

Enjoy!

That Sonic run was a bit of a comedy of errors, wasn't it? >_>

All good fun to watch though. I certainly didn't know of that trick for Knux in MG2 either (shows that I never played this game to any serious level).

Download Gens+ Emulator and then go to Play Input Movie and select the movie and there ya go.

EDIT: Also, get the Sonic 3 and Knuckles ROM that mike is using, I think it has to be the exact version as his.

No Knuckles' boss route trick on MG2? :(

No glitches used on that level at all, actually :O I remember at least one in your last run. Had a change of heart?

Only for Knuckles. The other two I couldn't be bothered with as it just doesn't save enough time.
