- A run of Ocarina of Time by omgatree that completes the game without pausing a single time.
This is a Low Optimization Tool-Assisted Demonstration [LOTAD], meaning it was created on an emulator using slowdown and savestates in order to pull off tricks that would normally be too difficult for a human, but does not necessarily aim for maximum possible optimization.

Shout out to the automatic Master Sword equip when you pick it up at the end of the Ganon fight (39:46). This is the second time that this small quality of life feature has made an entire speedrun category possible. Famously, at the end of the any% route, this automatic equip is what gives you the Master Sword that you need to beat Ganon's final phase. Since you don't acquire the Master Sword otherwise, the only reason that Ganon can still be beat when wrong warping from the Deku tree is because the game makes you pick it back up. If you had to just have it, you'd be boned.
However, in this run it is an even spicier coincidence. If Link picked up the Master Sword but had to manually equip it from the pause menu, then 0-pause wouldn't be possible. Fortunately, the game automatically equips it.
What I'm trying to say is that the auto-equip there is the true homie of Oot speedruns.
Shoutouts to auto-equip ?
Omfg you're right. Shout outs to the adult auto equip as well. Only if masks got auto equipped. Maybe they should add that to Faster Quest
Hey guys, sorry I had to reupload this because the original had the beginning cut off. Hopefully this still counts as being uploaded on February 21st.
It counts in California. :)
What's so special about February 21st?
It counts for us Arizonans.
It says "Published on Feb 21, 2019", doesn't it? Or does that vary by location?
21.02.19 in Germany, the only place that matters for speedrunners
16:00 Now I know what you're thinking. "Egg?!"
lmfao
He was right
egg?
Sick skurry reference
I was watching this before I went to sleep and stopped halfway through, and then I had a dream that i was watching a 0 pause Zelda run at AGDQ and at one point the runner paused twice and one of the comments of the video was a timestamp of the pause and that he was sad.
Lmao just got awake by the noise of the end of the last Mario odyssey agdq run, then I just watch this run, and I can see I'm not the only one who sleep in front of speedrun
What a man of culture
This is like when that kid down the block makes up stuff to sound impressive. “I beat that game in less than an hour. And I didn’t even pause.” And then he’d argue with you if you told him it was impossible.
Was he right all along?
Well, no he wasn't, a TASer did it not him...
Kevin Pereira it was a joke, Kevin.
i like this speed playthrough because he rolls forward and i can see where he is going!! so frustrating when the other speedy guys just are always back walking, cant see anything then. thanks ZFG.
Haha, the unfortunate thing is that back walking is faster in those circumstances.
curiousinferno that'sthejoke.jpg
Ohhhh whoops
I can't wait to see how you react to TAS movement without explosives (literally sidehop everywhere)
I can never get enough Keeta. I'm on the edge of my seat thinking of what the next great white whale of OoT TASing is going to be. See you next mission!
That side hop/DoT skip was slick asf! Everything looked effortless.. The entire run blew my mind. Crazy to see new tricks & methods still being discovered all these years later, clear in 2019! 😎
I really enjoyed the dry humor throughout the run, it very much added to the already pretty ridiculous nature of the run. Also...
16:03 E G G ?
I was really hoping for another chapter of Sonic High School.
Thank God l'm not the only one
Thx keeta and omgatree for keeping tradition alive, I really like this
If you take any consecutive 10 second of the run out of context it looks like a casual let's play.
14:02 to 14:12?
@@ScAr_wlvrne you mean to say that you dont try to clip oob in temple of time? cringe
Absolutely insane. I remember when this was a literal pipe dream
who was the one smoking the pipe?
@@Zm4rf Garfield!
These videos are amazing to see how far you all have come breaking this game in so many optimal ways. I have to pinch myself as a reminder this game took 100+ hours of my life as a kid and this game is NOT made for speedrunning, but turns out it is the BEST game for speedrunning because of how many different things you can do to manipulate the experience.
Wow great, I JUST finished watching the first upload of this, now I have to watch it AGAIN? Thanks Jerk >:(
Who ever discovered the glitch and who ever made a 0 pause run of the game... Congrats... Like serious Congrats. Not even Kappa or anything of the sort. You are truly an impressive person.. The whole lot of you!
worst pun at 17:00 (the punchline is at 17:18)
Or the best pun. It really depends on who you're asking.
Best
LOL Love it
I stopped watching the video 20 mins in came back 20 hours later to finish it and I still remember that pun. It will stick with me.
That pun was amazing. I paused the video just to look for this comment and upvote it.
To funny
Ah I was wondering why the video before started during the intro. Now its the whole video thanks zfg.
You should submit something like this to AGDQ, I would much rather watch a prepared version of this than the phoned home TAS block we had this year.
Agreed. Could use a little change and this is amazing.
This is AGDQ worthy. Just need some polishing, but it was done in 4 days! This is amazing.
Incredible work by omgatree! Thanks ZFG and commentators for this awesome vid
"So, basically, we just need our nuts and a sword." -Zaztalek, 2019
now i know what you're thinking.... egg?
I think we can sum this run as... "nuts are useful, auto equip is awesome... Rocks beats escape."
The only thing better than watching zero pause, is having it commentated by Keeta
I've been looking forward to Kaztelek's thing for a whole year.
When your start button is broke
History in the making right here.
Can’t wait for -1 pause. Kappa
Wondering why this was uploaded twice but great job guys.
wow.. cant really believe there's actually a 0 pause run now!
Me: How many pauses does this run take?
Kaztalek: *I'm glad you asked...*
What if we used 100% of the brain?
*this video plays*
You got a point. we can't use 100% of our brain all at once. so it's still true XD
@@TheUltimateRare yah can with the right drugs! :D
2:00 but first we need to talk about parallel universes.
I've actually been replaying through this game the last two days, and sitting here watching this, every like 5 minuets I'm going like 'I need to do that, next time i play' Lol
Link gave the last of his life to stop Gohma on his 7 year quest to save the Deku Tree
OoT Developer watching this: *cries*
20:40 i like how you say "item of choice" despite that there arent really any other items to choose from
My entire childhood is gone with just 40 minutes lol.
What will -1 pauses look like?
1/2 pause
@@zeroqp A pause is a pause. You can't say it's only a half
Not to pause in the whole game, AND not to pause in the previous game you played.
make the game pause itself for you
Smacking someone's hand away while they're trying to pause in a different run.
I am hyped to hear some more commentary from Keeta
Incredible that this exists
unlike the women you fall for, Geordiii
@@zeroqp hey, she existed, I just fell in love with a hologram of her without meeting the real deal!
21:37 "faroray's wind"
19:24 *ZFG will remember that*
This made me laugh way too hard
my mental moped broke down
PAUSA fans are extremely disappointed
QSC no pausa
Literally just finished 2 pause. My mind has just been fucking BLOWN. RIP sleep,this is more important
zfg sounds so happy
This is thrilling commentary
Why Saria gave Link the Ocarina wasn't resolved in the mental notepad 😥
he needed the ocarina in deku tree so he can wrong warp
It equips the Fairy Ocarina as adult if you have it
how have i been playing OoT for 20+ years, but only JUST NOW learned that Deku Nuts can bring down GANON??
ikr that's crazy :O 20+ years and we're still learning stuff about this game
Checklist for February 21st:
Notepad
Notepad again
Can't wait until max% no pause
Shouts out to Barrinade, Volvagia, and Twinrova for being (I think) the only things standing in the way of All Dungeons 0 pause
Wait do you press start at 14:23? Still isn’t a pause but it I don’t remember if you have to press start to get out of the title screen.
Edit: had my question answered 10 seconds after writing this comment
"Now I know what you're thinking... E G G ?"
mental notepad
I would have never guess this would be possible someday
How the hell did we get to 0 pauses. Well I guess I'll find out. Frigging insane.
the legendary "Egg?"
Next Stop: 0 pause 100%
23:02 this is probably how i would scream too if that happened to me
If itemless escape becomes RTA viable, does this become the new Low%?
Not necessarily. Its not human possible
No because this forces you to get ocarina.
@@tinibari456 Stick, bottle, chus, Kokiri Emerald, Master Sword
I think this opens up another 5 item route with ocarina, bottle, nuts, emerald, and master sword, if I'm not mistaken.
@@msterforks How are you killing Gohma
Beautiful
What’s the lore to this run?
Link suffered from brain damage and died trying to impress his friend by carrying a large rock above his head. Everything after that was more or less an illusion inside his mind as he slowly died, which was implied when he visited the graveyard. The Gohma and Ganon fights were metaphors for his internal demons he had to slay before he could pass onto heaven, after which an angel of light serenaded him as he ascended into heaven.
@38:22 , why does Link hold the Master Sword as a Biggoron's sword/Megaton Hammer/Deku stick after he draws it?
fuck yeah, (J) OoT is back
Ok professor, when is the test?
Anybody got a feeler gauge and a set of calipers for how precise these executions have to be?
Beating Ganon and saving Hyrule without pausing; using only a sword, a shield, an ocarina and your nuts..... sounds about right.
2:28 where? show them!
I want to kiss Keeta
get in line
very impressive
If we
1) get Epona the intented way
2) go to Gerudo valley
3) get past the desert gate
4) get past the quicksand
5) Guay-hover to the silver gauntlets,
which steps require a pause?
Or we need Epona song for step 1)?
You need epona song to get epona which requires you to use pocket kuko which requires a pause, and you cant guay hover over the epona wall steal loading point.
@@stigmaoftherose The guay hover was to get up to the gauntlet chest
@@b.clarenc9517 I was referring that there is a guay in Lon lon but you cant use it to hover to the loading zone that gives you epona as far as I know.
Previous record for this was 2 pauses (I think)
Today came up with an idea for 1 pause (Fire temple wrong warp)
Then saw this...
Now the only thing left (I think) is to reduce the pauses on the 100% run (currently 3)
If this is possible, then that might be
Good luck :)
Has anyone ever done this RTA? If not, I'm curious which parts exactly are standing in the way (or if just nobody's bothered yet). Obviously that forest escape is ridiculously precise but finding an RTA-viable setup for it doesn't sound totally out of the question, though there might be something that gets in the way.
Grego_the_greatest is the only person to ever do it RTA, which he did last year
Can you get to Desert Colossus and do a guay hover to get Silver Gauntlets, thus allowing you to get bombs with 0 pauses? Not sure how much further you can get but it'd be interesting to know how many items it's possible to get in a Max% 0 pause run.
yes you can, this is what is done in the new updated 1pause all dungeons route
yeah
so this is a really neat trick
so yeah
So I realize it's impossible to get below 0 pauses BUT theoretically with how this game keeps evolving and new stuff is found everyday even 20 years later do you think it would ever be possible to beat the game without pausing and without the adult automatic equip? If so, how close do you think we are?
@@user-it6nz3rh3z this comment aged like milk
well, my question is: if what mmoved it from 2 pause to zero pause was itemless escape, couldn't 1 pause have done this route by simply equipping sticks as child, doing the wess, and then following the same roue as this one? You'd think they would've wanted to skip the 20 minute guay hover...
Itemless DoT skip wasn't found until somewhat recently either and you can't equip Kokiri Sword if you want Blank B.
Swordless DOT skip was discovered at least 7-8 years ago.
swordless dot skip was done a long time ago. You can find it in old speedruns. It was actually in one of zfg's old videos.
1 pause is this route but with stick wess escape. But that route was figured out like 2-3 weeks before itemless escape and no run was completed using it.
hey lets be honest here did you save state at kaepora gora
(Watching a TAS) DiD yOu sAvEsTaTe?!?
For fucks sake hahahahaha
Is the itemless DOT skip hard or possible for normal humans? With that I mean people that are not zfg or other top oot speedrunners.
i think its so hard that you cant really do it without seeing xyz values on emulator? but maybe there's gonna be a setup later
Itemless dot skip, more commonly known as swordless dotskip is as easy as normal dot skip, yes there’s a setup that makes it consistent
@@MrFlameEagle Oh that's cool. I only ever knew the setup for the normal one with the sword.
@@MrFlameEagle it's not the same as DoT skip with sword or stick
It's fairly easy for casual players to get if you're following a tutorial, because of pause buffering. Unbuffered is MUCH harder
No C-buttons 0 pause when? The nuts are only a convenience, right?
@@user-it6nz3rh3z also need nuts for ghoma
awesome
Wss breaking the web for getting ISG to do the superslide teleport to get into the out of bounds water to skip the second web?
They had to break the first web early in order to get to the basement and do that trick later. The compass room trick (which requires the sword) wasn't possible a second time because they would have to climb the wall to get up there, which would dim the B button.
Why couldnt we do this before for 1 pause?
Y'all ever just... egg?
So the forest escape got rid of one pause. What got rid of the other
Probably eyeball frog and the shenanigans in lon lon
Why did you set the timer 13 seconds before you pressed play on your file? ...what?
Btw that forest escape trick is so insane. Can it be done rta?
yes. should it? eh...
realistically no. You would have to be able to know your quadinates a 1 thousandth of a unit which is humanly improbable.
Link just beat Apex Legends with just punching.
So when’s 0 pause and 1 half A press?
Lotad sounds like a homestuck island, Land of Traps and Dampe
The only parts I would not be able to do is the super slide and the TOT skip
I guess I wasn't paying enough attention - which glitch was the recently discovered one?
@@user-it6nz3rh3z Thanks!
Is there a reason to do this in the Japanese version (other than language preference)?
Faster text.
-1 pauses here we go
Would 0.9 version be faster for 0 pause?
Fuck it this will never been seen. So I might make my own TAS
Minus your time by 13 seconds because you pressed start on the timer too early
TAS timing begins on console startup
How did he type out 0pause so fast in the beginning? Feels fake af to me now
This is a TAS, someone went through the game frame by frame inputting specific inputs to compete the game.
A human isn't playing this live
Could you please edit the description?
The description says "complete's", this is incorrect grammar and it should have "completes" there.
Last I checked, the word completes isn't a name and can't own anything, and isn't a special case like the word "it".
Thank's for pointing this out.
