It's actually crazy how many people think that TAS is a robot or some kind of AI. TAS is the work of human beings. Work that is just as, if not more important than that of the RTA speedrunners that learn from them. While the contributions that TASers have made to RTA speedrunning are immensely important, TASing is also valuable in its own right. After all, it's the purest form of answering speedrunning's most central question: "How fast can a game be beaten?" Thank you so much for highlighting this often overlooked side of speedrunning!

@@AlbertTheGamer-gk7sn Never saw this video. Haven't watched it all yet but what are you referring to specifically? The vine L+R warp? The screen edge wrap? or both? While the screen edge wraparound could have also been discovered before I did, I know for sure I did also find it independently because I used my backward bump method out of curiosity to see what would happen. Putting them together was also an independent idea, but maybe I didn't "discover" it then, but I would be surprised if the wraparound trick was found prior to 2007, but then again it probably was known and undocumented in a romhack or something similar like this. Either way, as far as speedrunning is concerned the realization I had is the more important discovery rather than the discovery of the tricks themselves (but I do think I independently found both of them in this case too even if others used them before I did).

TASing such games in NP hard so we usually cannot be sure that we found the best solution unless we tried all the controller inputs that are shorter and made sure they don't win the game (which would take some insane amount of time even for a 5 minute run not to mention 19 minute)

@animowany111 18 дней назад

Actually, you don't need to check *all* possible input sequences to prove that a TAS is perfect, you just need to show that no other input would be better, which is doable with proof techniques (But the sheer scale of doing something like that for a game like Super Mario Bros is unfathomable and has never been done before). Also, what you've described is not an NP-hard problem (is there a solution at least as good), but a coNP-hard problem (is there no solution better than this one), this is a subtle distinction but coNP seems harder in practice, since you need to generate a proof that there is no solution instead of just providing an example solution.

@TrimutiusToo 18 дней назад

@@animowany111 i suppose my description was a bit off... Yes you don't need to "try" you just need to "show" that shorter solutions don't work... And yes by NP hard i meant finding the actually best possible TAS, rather than just simply better TAS than we have right now....

As others have said people not knowing what tases are is not a new phenomenon. Personally, I think TASbot plays a huge part in this. The visual of TASbot is substantially more memorable than the actual explanations of what TASing is, and for a lot of people TASbot was their first introduction to TASing due to the frequent Games Done Quick appearances. As someone who's been TASing for 4 years at this point it kinda sucks that so many casual viewers and even RTA runners don't know that much about TASing and what it looks like in practice.

Nifsky just out there having a realtime record that meets what used to be considered the best possible TAS-only time.. :D

@ryanhodin5014 18 дней назад

Niftski is less than a second away from what has been considered the best RTA rules any% tas for over a decade. Perhaps more impressively, in that run he ties the TAS up until 8-4, and only loses frames in that level - Meanwhile, his IL 8-4 ties the TAS. Meaning, he's tied the TAS in two segments, just not in a single segment. The only "if" remaining there is "if he cares to grind it out", he will match perfection. He's legitimately insanely good.

Super excited for this big analysis video! First it was 21 frames, runners cared about, now there's 21 seconds to care about, eh? Thanks for uploading! Might comment more later!

@@percher4824 it's still true though we understand bicycles better than aeronautics also SMB1 and SMB3 (and I'm sure SMB2J and SMB2USA) have been decompiled so people can just take a look at the code so comparing SMB1 to aeronautics is a really big stretch atari and NES games aren't *that* far apart like uhhh... bicycles and aeronautics.
