Nice video! I did not invent the double glitchy wallkick strategy itself, this already existed as a TAS strategy. I just used some computational tools I wrote (which in turn relied on a recompiled version of the game by Bad Boot) to find somewhat consistent RTA setups. See Crackhex's comment for more info. Also, Circumark has come up with a bunch of reroutes for 120 to do carpetless earlier (more relevant for the old bob-omb strat), and helped investigate and identify more possible setups after the first couple dropped.

dude forgot that lunar jump was the first person to hit the gwk carpetless in a run, it wasn't a very good run and it took him several attempts but THATS MY GOAT

Hey, SM64 TASer here. I want to note that the history about the TAS version of the carpetless is somewhat inaccurate. Regarding the discovery of the trick, there was originally a video in 2009 by blazesoul13 which was an attempt at this strategy, however it failed due to lack of height caused by a bad angle from the 2nd wallkick, after the first gwk. This was re-investigated after a video of someone with altered physics did what blazesoul had attempted, but succeeded. The community then investigated this, and Iwer + Frame were able to demonstrate a new type of glitchy wallkick possible due to the geometry. This strat likely would not have been found for some more time until someone else started trying to find it, and that could have been years. I uploaded the full TAS of this strat to my channel, and now have an updated one on my channel as well, which I am rather happy about now. TAS evolution of this star is very interesting, so I wish you had probed our conmunity for some research. If you had wanted to look a bit more into the old history of carpetless, there are some old niconico videos, along with plenty of un archived runs on an old JP wiki you likely wont find without specifically searching archives of old TAS content. Mario64Masters, while the first to do it, had a run slower than is possible with the carpet. The first person to upload a faster time was blazesoul on march 11th 2010. There was also a 40 second run uploaded two days later to niconico, so snark's run was only slightly faster than that. I also have a sub 21 second run palix helped me with, that I still need to upload :)

@ObliviousBear while I would love to do that, I'm not good at video making/editing, and would likely do a terrible job. I am absolutely willing to help anyone who wishes to do that tho :p

It's copying an already existing video essay almost word by word at some points, though.

There's nothing like the comfort of a documentary on a niche subject from your favorite game. Nice vid

You make really good videos dude, you should be proud of your work.

It's so crazy how carpetless was first impossible and now is a common use in speedruns. Great Video Connor!

Idk if calling it a common use in speedruns is appropriate. I'm not a SM64 runner, but I do pay attention to the community and, pretty much only top level runners use it. not mid or bottom tier runners. to say it's a common used strat is kinda exaggerating the strategy.

Nice to see you back

Its finaly here! it was a great watch and defo lived up to the hype I had for our once a year upload!

NEW VIDEO FOR THIS YEAR LEZGOOOOOOOOOO

Really glad to see another video

I love watching these types of videos while I eat. You did a great job

Huge

Great work, congrats on another release

Good to see you back

Insanely good video bro! I just wish it were more often

Nice to have you back

Very nice documentary on speedrunning! Makes me wonder how much close we truly are from perfection. It's possible that 1:36 will be the limit unless someone discovers something exceptional like ACE similar to OoT or something like that.

Wake up babe new Connor01 video dropped!

7:08 when he woohoo’s like Mario that made me laugh so hard😂

Every year is a good year when Connor01 posts.

Great video!

Nice to see you again

I feel like I've seen this somewhere

Comeback PLEASE! 😫

cool

:)

Babe, I missed you.

hi connor

Premieres tend to kill viewership, by the way. I don’t know why, but I’ve see it happen across multiple channels when they try to premiere a video. I think it keeps it from being recommended or something.

Jumping? Like, with the A button? 🤮🤮🤮

Its wild because i feel like i recently watched an SM64 100% speedrun, but apparently not. Will have to watch the new strat using cartpetless.

I feel like 5 minutes at the start to explain why you can't just jump there or fly with the wing cap or launch with a cannon would be good
