SM64 - Somewhere Over the Rainbow - 0x A Presses

- I collect the star Somewhere Over the Rainbow in Rainbow Ride using 0 A presses. For the record, this is TAS.
This video is an improvement from my previous video in which I collected this star in 1 A press. You can find that video here: • SM64 - Somewhere Over ... . Since then, I worked out a strategy to use fly guy's twirl to get to the island from the ship's mast.
Here is a play by play of the strategy. First, I go down to fly guy to lure him out of his starting position. You see, in order to manipulate fly guy's movement, he needs to be 2000+ units away from his starting position, and so I need to lure him away. I also use him to get off at the top of the pole, because Mario is unable to do that by himself. I then deactivate fly guy while he's in the direction I wish to transport him. From there, I manipulate him into a lunge, and activate him so that he lunges up to a particular height. While he's at this height, I repeatedly manipulate him into a lunging state in the direction of my choosing, then reactivate him right when his lunge runs out. In doing so, I am able to move him laterally without him moving up or down (if he moved up or down, I would lose the ability to manipulate him easily). Once fly guy is at a certain checkpoint, I ride the carpet up and allow fly guy to lunge up to another particular height. Then once again, I repeatedly manipulate fly into lunges at particular angles, effectively transporting him horizontally to another checkpoint. From there, I manipulate lakitu such that I use him to get onto the ship using vertical speed conservation. Then, I climb up the ship's mast, reactivating fly guy while he is in a spinning state. I strategically climb up and down the pole to manipulate fly guy just right so that he flies into the top of the mast. I also position Mario just right so that fly guy knocks into him while also causing Mario to bounce on him and twirl. The twirl's slow descent combined with the initial momentum of the knock back is just enough for Mario to reach the island. And from there, it's a simple matter of having chuckya throw Mario into the star.
I put a lot of effort into studying fly guy in order to have the necessary tools to perform this strategy. Here is a video explaining how to manipulate fly guy: • How to Manipulate Fly Guy . Additionally, here is a diagram of how fly guy turns back towards his starting position as his lunge ends: imgur.com/rou6WMy. This was important so that I could maximize his displacement with each lunge. Also, here's a picture of my calculations [imgur.com/zqoFP8t] and here's a picture of my setup [imgur.com/8IBuFiM].
If you don't know about the vertical speed conservation trick, it works like this. When Mario does a dive recover and lands, the variable that maintains his vertical speed does NOT reset to zero. So, if Mario lands while he is falling, then this vertical speed will be negative. But if Mario lands while he is still ascending (as is the case when he diver recovers between the falling blocks), then this vertical speed will be positive. This vertical speed WILL reset to 0 if Mario moves at all, but punching and breakdancing will not affect it. Anyway, once Mario becomes airborne, then his vertical speed takes instant effect. So by storing a positive vertical speed and not resetting it, I am able to have Mario "pop up" when he punches his way off of the falling block. The reason I needed this vertical speed bounce instead of a regular dive recover is because Mario is able to ground pound with the former, which can ascend just enough height to make it to the ship platform.

There you have it, and you didn't even have to clone 72 Goombas.
Because there are no Goombas in dat level
@@iamahater4318 I know this is a year late but there is 1 goomba
-Hey pannenkoek2012, wanna play some Mario 64?
-Ok, sure
-One problem though, the A button doesn't work
-No problem for me
*reaches BitFS*
-well shit
funny dog man
-just Up B dude
Up B does literally nothing
Smash Bros joke
unless this is a SMB64 joke
Next up on pannenkoek's channel, he will attempt get all 120 stars without actually plugging in the game using nothing more than a Neo Geo and his mind.
Also 'Fly Guy Manipulation' is a great name for a 1970's psychedelic prog rock band.
The amount of effort that goes into these Super Mario 64 videos is incredible. The solutions he comes up with are creative and the explanations to help people understand what is going on is also very helpful. I only found your channel a week ago and it is already one of my favorites. You deserve more subs, sir.
Thank you! :)
+pannenkoek2012 wait did you try bringing the mystery goomba to you?
I agree. Everything is so well done and so much thought and effort has gone into it. I am really enjoying these.
MeBurritoLoco you know its TAS right? anyway its so cool watching these videos i love every of em
too bad he got memed on so hard he can't commentate anymore
7:00 the devs purposely made this game completable without A presses. Just barely possible to have the exact distance so you could twirl toward that island and land exactly in the edge. They developed the game with no A presses in mind so 25 years later people would already have discovered a way to complete the game without any A presses.
I hope you're joking.
Sehon13Ultd I am. But still, It's pretty impressive that floating island has the exact distance for Mario to just make the twirl from the top of the pole.
Also, I've always wondered why all stairs but the main stairs on the castle have collision for each step, while the main stars have the collision of a slope. So many unanswered questions lol :P
Also there's that one star in WDW that's literally one unit above what you can normally get without a presses.
Not really, without glitches the count would have been at 100 or something like that.
Though I do believe SM64DS was purposely made to be completable without pressing B even once.
SM64DS BBC does not abuses glitches and mostly uses advantage of the new mechanics. Now there's also an Any% 0x video of it.
When Tyler joined several years ago, he was looking into castle movements to make any% possible. He exhausted *all* possibilities and resorted to repeatedly diving into a corner for no reason but hoping smth random just happens. So he discovered 207DR.
This repeated like a dozen times, even to this day, so "ABC is intended" became a long-running meme in the ABC Team.
I used to love this game. Now I don't understand it.
lol marisa plays mario 64 kk
Finally someone put it out there! Pannenkoek does a great job of explaining it though...
You never understood it, but now you know you don't.
But to answer that, we need to talk about parallel universes.
This is incredible, man. I cannot express just how impressed I am by your knowledge, creativity and dedication. Amazing work.
Thanks! I appreciate your compliment!
I can't even... this is... what... you... are... AMAZING!!!
Watching this makes me too nervous
Annotations are awesome! I love the creativity and effort that go into these videos.
Thanks!
I LOVE the idea of annotations :)
#GETREKTRR
Definitely keep the annotations dude. If someone doesn't like it, they can turn it off themselves. And omg what a display of intelligence and knowledge about this game. This gotta be my favorite ABC star so far.

@@want-diversecontent3887 I'm on 2021 :(
@@thegreekgodzeus8455
I'm on mobile and 2021 at the same time :(
I think the annotations are actually custom-made subtitles, and at least on pc they still work today?
@@dimusnail no
You seriously must have genius level thinking to know all the relays and time that everything correlates together so flawlessly. Very amazing my good sir indeed.
He is very skilled, but obviously TAS is used
The amount of care, planning, creativity, awesomeness, and, let's face it, sheer stubbornness and tenacity you show in each of these stars is incredible. I never comment on YT, but I just had to say thanks for the entertainment in WF's and RR's latest 0x A button videos :)
This is dope! I love the annotations. Always love seeing my childhood favorites getting perfected. Hope to see more of these!
The annotations were really helpful in understanding what's going on.

Sick remix, bruh!
Architector #4 WWOWOWOWOWOWWWWWWWWWWOOOHHHH
This is absolutely phenomenal. I am simply in awe, I would have never expected this to be possible.
wow, crazy. (and interesting annotations. It was interesting to read through them) That poor fella is so mind-controlled.
These annotations are a good idea!
I probably woudn't understand all these crazy techniques without them, and it's easier to read them *during* the video than in the description of the video!
And after all that, the fly guy twirl gets you JUST enough distance... wow. Since the manipulation process is quite complex, it was certainly helpful to get play by play explanations in annotation form.
Same. I think he should do a video where he messes up and his reaction.
I know, but it would be cool to see failed ideas to improve.
TheLoneWolf You can see failed strats and my progress on my alternate account at th-cam.com/users/pannenkeok2012videos?live_view=500&sort=dd&view=0&flow=list
Isn't it just grand how Bowser's minions are the ones helping Mario get these stars?
In fact, if there wouldn't present there, you couldn't kill bosses.
Wow, I didn't know so many calculations go into these. Good thing I appreciate it instead of finding it too weird ;)
I added a link to a picture of my calculations to the description! imgur.com/zqoFP8t
Same.
I really love the annotations. I usually get lost when reading the descriptions so having it show when it is relevant is a big help. As a side note holy shit that was cool.
5 years ago I saw this and liked it. Today I watched it after watching Bismuth's part 4 and FINALLY understood what was going on! And found I can't thumb it up twice.
If only Nintendo had chosen a different letter besides A to write on that jump button. Then not pressing A would be more trivial.
+Game Buster REKT
Game Buster But first we need to talk about parallel universes in which the buttons on the N64 controller are labeled with katakana instead of letters.
I loved the annotations.
By all means please include them whenever possible to explain what's going on. It's great!
Wait a sec, weren't you that guy who modded a Portal gun into the Stanley Parable a few years back?
Super! :3 yes he is
I love watching your videos and getting to the "Holy Shit" moment. It's always so great to see the creative ways that go into beating this game.
lol yea the "holy shit" moment always gets me tbh
Manipulating 2 enemies at once, you're incredible! One of the least likeliest stars to get saved, get rekt RR
It was probably private for a few hours to write the annotations, now that I think about it. I love them, if only there was a way to see them on mobile :/
@@1ted59 -- And now they're lost forever... :-(
@@TlalocTemporal If I understand correctly the annotations are actually custom-made subtitles that still are available today?
@@dimusnail -- Annotations used to be boxes that could be placed anywhere on the video and contain any text, including links. It could only be done after the video was uploaded, so not publishing the video immediately was useful.
Annotations never worked on mobile, and when TH-cam discontinued the feature, none of them were saved. There were a not insignificant amount of older videos subtitled entirely using annotations, and many more that used annotations as minor edits to correct errors and update content. Now you need to re-upload videos to edit them, and/or add a pinned comment, or add a note in the description to add a correction or link. There are also cards (the bits at the end and the popups with the ℹ️ symbol in the upper right corner), but they're rather clunky. :/
@@TlalocTemporal Oh I see, thanks. One thing that still confuses me a bit, it seems like the content that might have originally been in annotations in this video is now placed in subtitles(maybe something's missing, idk). Is it possible that TH-cam converted the annotations to subtitles, or did Pannen do it himself when the annotations were removed/maybe the original video had both annotations and subtitles?
Watching this video reminds me how knowledgeable you are about this game. Well done dude.
Adding the annotations was a great idea! Really insightful as to what was happening in the video, I'd say keep them!
Wow... this is amazing. I have no other words for this. Well done!
Also, thanks for the annotations, you do a really good job of explaining all these crazy strategies.
Poor poor fly guy... Being manipulated all the time must be a burden..
A truly crazy video.
Wow manipulating 2 enemies to be at very specific positions plus having to worry about cycle timings... that probably took so much planning. Amazing
The annotations are great, there's no way I would have kept up without them :p keep up the amazing work!
LOVE the annotations. Please continue them. Much more understandable and technical this way.
I love the annotations man helps a ton with understanding!
Called it. The planning involved in this route is insane.
I was always thinking of the easiest way to beat this level! Thanks a ton!
I really like the idea of using annotations on the videos. Keep it up if possible, plz! :)
Also, this was some amazing work you did. Thanks for sharing it with us!
I can't like this video enough! Great work!
0:40 Y E S this text is beautiful, it filled my schreen
Sometimes I wonder if pannen plays any other games than Super Mario 64
Games?
you think this is a motherfucking game
Dude these aren’t games, he doesn’t even get up from his computer. (Aka “life”)
Pannen doesn't so much "play" SM64 as "bend it to his will."
this isnt a game
The annotations are a great way to give the information, I like it.
I love all the TAS swaggin while waiting for carpet ride haha
I really like the annotations. It explains all that's happening and can be turned off whenever we want.
I liked the annotations, they explained a lot, and if someone doesn't like them, they can just turn them off :D
Same!
I love the annotations. Also, I think I figured out how to kill the mystery goomba and commented under ideas to kill the mystery goomba. But seriously, you have awesome videos.
Oh my god, that was amazing! Also I love the captions, normally with the descriptions it's hard to connect what's going on with the explanation, but this made lots of more sense :)
You guys once thought this to be impossible, yes? Your triumphs amaze me
7:02 That was so satisfying... That moment when everything goes just right :D
uh wow ok
Also the annotations were excellent; would love it if you kept doing those!
*can't dive-recover into star*
Pannen: "I'm gonna get yeeted"
Manipulating all of those actors (mainly the fly guy) simultaneously was tough for pannen. Even the island itself required an actor (namely a chuckya), else Mario couldn't grab the star without pressing a. Good thing the chuckya is there naturally. #getrektrainbowride
*ACTORS* YOU THINK THIS IS A PLAY
This is amazing and the annotations are amazing.
Oh btw ***** lmao
I don't know if you remember, but yeah I'm the guy that during a live stream told you I was one of pannenkoek's helper =P
this is art
I like annotations, but ESPECIALLY for this one, I would have had no idea whatsoever what was going on otherwise.
your giving me small panic attack when your on the magic carpet fucking around on the edges. makes me feel like your about to fall off! Good job!
Just.. Amazing! Nice work pannenkoek !
Who knew that fly guys would come in THIS handy? Great job :D
It’s a miracle that every single star in this course is 0x
Pancake Man spends 15 minutes convincing a helicopter guy to fly up to a floating ship, only to die so Pancake Man can reach a floating island
i liked being able to read what you were doing, otherwise i just thought you were insane :P
Is this TAS? D: Your'e freakin good dude!
Wow to get through that without any a presses you have to go through all of these glitches and par-core variable stuff
I like the annotations!
And great job on this one!
now we just need a documentary narrator for this video :D
mario hates carpets, that's for sure
I like the annotations. I finally know what's going on! (Kinda)
Awesome! Very amazing. And yes, the annotations are great! :D
The annotations are great, but please put them a bit higher up because the progress bar hides the bottom line of text when pausing the video to read annotations.
pannenkoek2012 ^
I still can't believe you went flying through the skies without pressing A once, but you can't get past a freaking pole....
Curse you BitFS
I like the annotations.
Ngl I was really hoping you were gonna simultaneously screw around for 7 minutes doing the fly guy manipulation AND do a green demon challenge at the end there *all* without any A presses.
Also, the fact TASers try to make a run as entertaining as possible while needing to wait is just awesome. Willin to bed atleast 80% of the random tricks on the carpets where unnecessary
Godlike fly guy manipulation :D
Legit backup strat in case your controller is broken.
Really? I'm collect this star with effort and this guy made it with 0 A presses? Jesus!
Moment of glory: 6:59
+1 for annotations.
You are a genius! But i'm sure you've heard that several times already.
I really loved the annotations!
Love your videos, very fun to watch. You plan on doing other N64 games as well?
nope, only SM64
Never ceases to amaze
The timing with that Chuckya tho
I swear to God man, the number of times Mario came *this close* to falling off the course...
This video isn't good for my heart.
I think he's just having fun in most of this.
Definitely keep making annotations. It's easier than looking through the video description and trying to piece together when all that stuff is happening.
Oh and uh, it gives a fella something to do during those lengthy cloning sequences...y'know?
This was actually entertaining to watch like a freerun but was also useful lol
Definitely keep the annotations!
No matter how many times you explain it, I just can't ever get my head around this A press science. :/
YOU GOT IT!! :D :D OMG I was waiting to see if it'd be possible. Get rekt indeed.
i like the annotations
The chuckya said "ok, you can pass"
There needs to be a “follow the yellow brick road in galaxy 3”
You are amazing!
The annotations are interesting. I say keep them.
Absolutely incredible

W O A H
Amazing!
Sometimes in the past you can discover greatness. Sometimes it's revelation. And sometimes it's this.
I don't understand anything of what's going on there. I believe, from what I could gather from the description, that the falling off of the carpets and the jiggling around on them is to move the fly guy around somehow while not moving it vertically. When moving to the next carpet you move it vertically a very calculated amount and the part with the Lakitu I didn't really capture.
As far a I'm concerned you could've summoned the ghost of the N64 to help you in your endavour or something
