Although this hack is designed to be on the absolute limit between "Possible and Impossible", as the name already says, I beta-tested everything in the game to make sure that everything is possible to execute in realtime. It will just require insane amount of skill, which without alot of practise only the absolute experts would have.
Meh, I had nothing to do and didn't want to continiue where my v1 ended (middle of the morphball maze omg that place is so boring to TAS) so I decided to start over and make a more optimized run and also make better artistic choices at waiting areas. There where some places in particular that I hated to see every time, especially one item refill that later turned out to be unecessary and cost surely a second or more.
BTW Ceres is a bitch, the introscreen luckmanipulation has to be completely reworked here and since I can't hexedit and don't have 100 hours of patience to try 49:05 will do.
I just got my hands on Doom 2, and I also found my old Dungeon Keeper CD... so it's not going too great ;]. I still have not worked on it since the brinstar -> crateria elevator. I figured I need to redo some stuff since it's not that very superduper.
I haven't TASed at all since I beat Phantoon.. I'm happy I proved 2 round possible no matter if it's slower than a quick 3 rounder. I haven't had my laptop for weeks and have been playing guitar for 4 hours a day or so, so my progress is none. I'm continuing when I feel like it, sometimes I have the mood for TASing like hell, sometimes I feel like playing guitar all day, these two seasons change in my mind all the time. :P When it's TASing time I do that.
EDIT: Actually got just back on TASing, I'm almost at that room that has the ceiling maze kinda thing in Maridia. I found really superb ways of doing the water filled rooms in WS, I might continue TASing now. :)
That's awesome. I've been kind of bored lately so I got myself into a Metroid Prime 22% and can't get pas the stupid Geothermal Core. So I don't know how long until I try Draygon some more.
How's your TASes going CPadolf and Kriole? I'm almost at charge beam at the moment. I'll posti WIP 4 probably when I'm done with Botwoon, Draygon you'll see in the full run. ;)
I'm at Spore Spawn in my v2, and have saved (even though thought impossible by me) ~200 frames over v1. Most noteably I have removed the energy/missile recharge in the kago room just before brinstar.

Can't wait to see your WIP4 :-D
Gogo save-frame-ranger! I kinda liked how you wrote "Quote from: Tonksi". Variation is your friend.
