The same general way you went about to get
the boost-ball
.  You'll just need to look harder.  Remember, that other side of the room is still part of the room you're in now.  It's just blocked off from view.
Ok, I am in what appears to be a countdown sequence so I miagine I am near the end of the game. But I am missing a lot of upgrades.

I have

Charge
Spazer
Varia
Morphball
Bomb
Boost Ball
Speed Booster
70 Missiles
20 Super Missiles
5 Powerbombs
Grapple
7 Energy Tanks
2 Reserve Tanks


Should I already be here?

As long as you beat GT then yes...  You should be on your way to the end of the game.  How long it actually takes....  That is a good question.

I myself lack the ice-beam and a couple of energy tanks, and maybe a few other things I can't recall ATM.

I'm on my 3rd play through.


Edit: Ever since I heard your voice in that video I can't help but to call you Electro-Ray.


Gonna need to go back and get what I missed. I never saw Bomb Torizo, Spore Spawn, Kraid, Ridley, and Draygon.

Also couldn't figure out how to get Wave Beam. I got everything in there BUT Wave.

Soo freakin wild.. I couldn't figure out where to go for the ending sequence to begin.. >.>

Couldn't freakin avoid all those bosses either, excluding Kraid. Don't remember if I faced SS or not.
I definitely never came across Kraid or SS.  On my first playthrough I fought both Draygon and Bomb Torizo, in addition to Phantoon and Ridley.  The first two take forever.

Go ahead. Stare.
To my knowledge Kraid and Sporespawn aren't in AFC.

Hi, am I under developed for the battle of the Chozo of Gold??:

This is everything I have:

7 E-Tanks
1 Reserve
70 Missiles
20 Super Missiles (25 if you count the pick up on the way there)
10 Power Bombs
Grapple
Spazer Beam
Varia Suit
Morph Ball
Bomb
Speed Booster

The only boss I've defeated was Phantoon, then after that found my way to the Golden Chozo.  The cheesing strat need not apply....
That one had me confused as well.  Even though I did/can defeat him...  :-/

While attacking him he seems to

refill his own health / (i.e.) turn back to his 'Gold' color, even if you get him down to a dark grayish color -sometimes.  I thought he could only be attacked when he wasn't standing in the bubbles...  But the "cheesing" or just standing there and spamming super missiles seems to be what does the trick.


Then again, I'm not really sure (I don't understand) what the 'trick' is.  aiwebs_014

Just make sure you

abuse the refill station.


And that's probably what makes this 'different' fight more 'fair'.
The refill isn't random. He regens 180 health a second. You simply need to pound him faster than he regens.
OMG FLAN!!!!!!!
Man I was pounding GT for a good 20 minutes before I got anywhere. The treadmills just made the whole thing so much harder.
Now I'm trying to get everything. I cant seem to get past here.


I assume I have to boostball through there, but I can't get boostball to work. It only seems to work when I go off an edge.
You do a short little mockball at the start before any of the things come down. You don't need a lot of speed, it just has to be faster than your normal ball rolling and it should work.

I think you will be stuck if you make it through one but not all, so do be careful.

Also, as for getting everything, FP got 101% and said he had 13 Etanks, which might've been a typo and he really had 14, but when I play and collect everything I remember playing I always end up with 99%... Some of the stuff is so out of the way even I can't remember it.


I can't seem to break this tube again. I got through this before, but I can't seem to get it to work a 2nd time.
In ver 1.04 and up you don't have to break it again. Just walk through.
I have played this for around 20 minutes. The hack itself is ok. You changed the gravity. Apart from that, I don't find much appeal to the hack.

0:55, 35% items.

It's funny I barely recognize any of the screenshots. Kinda feels like I was playing a different game. Boostball was useless aswell.

If you wanted to get a higher % -then it would've been quite handy.
Go ahead. Stare.

Only to move around faster. Besides that it is used for one room. I guess it does have more purpose than that since it causes the new gravity.
oh, let cpadolf do a speedrun on this ^^
Welp, it was interesting with the physics and such... some of the puzzles were silly and I didn't care for the spikes in most cases.

Not too bad, I guess.
Go ahead. Stare.
Quote from unknown_dude09:

Speed? Eh? I guess you could call it that, but I really don't see much speed coming from AFC...
I think the only interesting TAS run would be a max%, as any% or low% would skip pretty much all the really interesting parts of the game and probably be around :15. Despite how retarded and out of the way some of the items are, I can pull off getting all the items I can remember (Ending up with a 99%, so off by a couple) in sub :55 unassisted, and I have a feeling a max% would be a fair sight quicker than the original.

As far as speed, you can actually go faster in this than you could in the original. A good route will eliminate most of the slow floating, conservation of momentum when speedjumping could be insane with TAS precision, and boostball in 100% will take care of any vertical sections that a single spinjump cannot reach. It's just knowing how to manipulate the physics rather than assuming "It's random whenever I jump up at normal speed".



Edit: Cardweaver asked about a speedrun route, and while I don't take the best route and go the long way sometimes, as well as nearly get myself stuck and generally do poorly at speed tricks, here's a movie of me collecting 101% in 0:59 unassisted. (5 rerecords were used to fix desynchs, as I used SNES9x 1.51 thinking it wouldn't desynch if I didn't use savestates...)

Naturally, this shows the whole game so you probably won't want to download it unless you've beat the hack already.
Finished at 1:58, 36%

Q: But that is such a long time, you should have gotten a better %! How come you explored so little?
A: Because i am dumb-dumb
