Zelda Skyward Sword: Clean Cut Glitch - 65 cuts?

[monckey76]

wow...

[ExoticLegit]

there's a glitch to get a better camara you know :D

[RupeeClock]

@ExoticLegit I can't think you'd need it for this, but how's it done?

Video anywhere on youtube? Post an ID.

[nvoltis]

How come it said 1 Cut after :/

[PureOfPures]

So there's no prize for this shit. Man fuck you old man I'm fucking your daughter that item check girl on Skyloft

[Majorasword64]

He saw how well you did and change the score because he didn't want to be beaten.

[vyseskies]

Why the game's graphics are looking better? Is there something else aside from component wii cable? or i'm just seeing things?

[tijuanamarisol666]

wow, they only dedicated 6 bits to that variable >_>

[737Link]

Lol

[TheBossManBoss319]

I belive this would be the proper time AHEM

Link: BITCH PLEASE!

[jorgequiroga1]

lol ajajajajaa

[Hectorlph]

It was probably so fast he only saw 1 slice =P

[KainLance215]

How do you do that? Every time I try to slash fast, my fucking gay ass sensor doesn`t recognize the slices, so it goes at a 1 slash per second rate.

[XtremeItachou]

Hum... even with that it's pretty hard actually. The Nunchuck is rather annoying and it's impossible to remove. Keep it on hand can make unwanted spin attacks that are very penalizing.

I really wonder how you are able to do that, it's very impressive. My best is 33 for the moment, I can't do better for now.

[kalil6]

seriously nothing happend iswear you would get a piece of heart beating his score

[RupeeClock]

@RevolutionaryOven Wrong, play hero mode.

You get the instant charge when you obtain the true master sword on hero mode.

[misterneckbreaker88]

@RupeeClock what sword do you start with on hero mode? i am doing it atm am at lanryu mine facility.

[RupeeClock]

@misterneckbreaker88 Sword progression is the same as in hero mode, except that you start with a powered up skyward strike, which at the end will charge instantly.

[MrThorsStone]

Are there that many heart containers in the game? I thought there were 15, and 2 life medals.

[mds1978]

With that score, your prize should have been a blowjob

[Achille12345]

@mds1978 From who?

[mrvideogamenerd123]

i wish i copied my finished file before i made a hero mode :(

[irreplacableJKL]

@mrvideogamenerd123

I bet you do, that sucks, thank god i didn't and defeatd Demise for a 2nd time and then (after making a copy) i accepted hero mode.

[LucasCapris]

At the beginning I was like 'I NEED TO DO THAT, IMAGINE THE REWARD !!!!' but then I saw the price :/

[RupeeClock]

@LucasCapris If you need money, the sky diving mini-game is the most lucrative.

It takes practice but soon enough you'll be earning 480 rupees from a single game often.

[TheAwesomerandom]

this is a cheat

[RupeeClock]

@TheAwesomerandom This most certainly is not.

If you think it's a cheat, how do you think I did?

[SuperFFXfan]

is this HERO mode?

[RupeeClock]

@SuperFFXfan Yes, which is why the Skyward Strike charges instantly on the true master sword.

[XNick42]

How he end up wit one? I would have liked a piece of heart fr that action

[dposdpos]

Peter so jelly he counts 1 LOL

[cellgoondude]

nice true master sword im so jealous=(

[manguis18]

65=7 time? Jajajajajaja

[LittleAl016]

So, does it involve a vertical sword beam, or will any Skyward Strike do?

[SuperSupermario24]

The highest I've ever gotten with this is 46. WHAT... THE... HECK...

[Haiyami]

I don't know what you did to get 64 cuts. I've tried the same thing and i can't get it to work.

[Haiyami]

i don't know how you got into the 60's i've tried taht and it doesn't work.

[ChapterBlackSaga]

So the highest in-game score is 63 cuts.

[mychangedname]

Try to get the hylian shield, it hyRULES!!

[darkchaoszerolife123]

@mychangedname then they switched it to syloft.

[TheLuckySaGe]

i Do EXACTLY what you do with your hands and i Get 16. What the fuck

[Revenica]

@TheLuckySaGe I get 26-30, but that's still no where near 65...

[Dannyboyyay]

Please, I don't get it! Your link cut's way faster than mine! Is it because something of the Wiimote's or the Motion Plus' settings?

I swing the remote as fast as you do, but Link wouldn't swing like that.

[TheLuckySaGe]

@Dannyboyyay same, I think something is fishy here. There is no god damn way what he is doing gets 60 slices.

[MentheLapin]

@Dannyboyyay Are you using a different sword? Normal sword < Guardian Longsword < Master Sword, don't forget.

[peaceonearth347]

In soviet russia, bamboo cuts you!

[CandyLandFilms123]

i think hes cheating

[CandyLandFilms123]

@CandyLandFilms123 the guy cut clean or whatever guy

[crazypomp927]

how far into the game were you when you did this? i've attempted a few times to copy this technique and my sword does not cut even close to that quickly

[Tooopper]

...That was a complex method.

[thepeterpot]

Does the music in this place annoy anyone else besides me? It's the only place in the game that I wasn't keen on the music :/

[NintendoArielle]

In the Sky, 65 = 1.

[MewtwoGenetic]

hax, you used the code get 2 cuts for every cut

[RupeeClock]

@MewtwoGenetic Oh, is that why I got an odd number of cuts, then?

No ocarina codes used here pal.

[Xinsama]

Thank you! Goddess, I was going crazy with this mini-game. I got 37 twice, but was normally somewhere between 25-33 for the several dozen attempts I made. The Gossip Stone hinted that Peater had a record of 43 and I was determined to see what happened if you broke it. Nothing, apparently, but after three or four tries I got 53 cuts. Many thanks for your assistance!

[floooooooooooooooood]

Link cut so fast Peter only saw one attack.

[dposdpos]

@floooooooooooooooood

[Achille12345]

@floooooooooooooooood Ha ha! Probably! XD

[NekoLucaCosplay]

Peater dislikes this video..

[tIs4gatorbait]

doesnt work. tried over 100 times. not even exaggerating. ive lost over 2000 rupees trying to beat this today, 1000 using this technique. highest is ever got to using this technique was 37, but thats an outlier, the other 99 tries never passed 26 or so. nothing works on this. you need to go faster than the wiimote can detect to do it. literally impossible. fuck this shit right up its fucking ass

[tIs4gatorbait]

@tIs4gatorbait forgot to mention i have 99 evil crystals, monster horns, ornamental skulls, goddess plumes and blue bird feathers now

[RupeeClock]

@tIs4gatorbait It really isn't easy to do, but I did do it a couple of times.

For some, for some reason the trick seemed to be holding my wii remote closer to the screen, because of the sensor bar.

[tIs4gatorbait]

@RupeeClock excuse my anger, its easy to get frustrated at this thing, especially when you have to sit through the slow text and item get stuff before you can try again. can you explain how you hold the mote a litle more? were you standing? did you have wii plus (or does the game require it?). looks like you did mostly up-to-down slashes, which usually makes the stick fly off to one side. link loves to do the vertical spin attack or diagnol slices.

[RupeeClock]

@tIs4gatorbait I was sat down, the nunchuk was rested on my lap so it wouldn't move around to cause a spin attack, and my method was using downward slashes.

The fact the game makes you read a lot of text is for a reason, if it didn't the players would over-exert themselves by playing the game too hard, too long without breaks.

[tIs4gatorbait]

@RupeeClock

That's totally wrong. Anyways your method doesnt work. Thanks for posting anyways

[CraigEmberson]

@tIs4gatorbait I figured it out.... Hold the Wii Remote with your fingers either side of the tip of the remote, facing the screen (It doesn't respond with the sensor bar like most people think) but it helps you get a focus on the bamboo like a gun barrel lol Then you make sure you're shaking the remote up and down and not side to side at all and you'll be splitting it into several pieces at once.

[RupeeClock]

@CraigEmberson Yup, exactly like I did it in the video.

I shot the video like that as a sort of instructional thing, you can even see it clearly whilst I charge the skyward strike.

[CraigEmberson]

@RupeeClock The sensor bar does nothing in this game... The pointer is all Motion Plus controlled - You can even unplug the sensor bar after the start-up calibration.

[RupeeClock]

@CraigEmberson The sensor bar is sort-of used in the game to maintain calibration, actually.

If the wii remote doesn't know where the sensor bar is, you might find your sword swinging a bit odd or the B-item selection dial not co-operating.

[zxq3]

lol 6-bit variables. it's almost like we're back in the NES days!

[zxq3]

lol 6-bit variables.

[supermario98able]

ive gotten 37 already 

[DylanB2000]

i've gotten 27 evil crystals from him. xD

[DylanB2000]

@DylanB2000 wait, 28

[RupeeClock]

@DylanB2000 I've gotten at least 50 each of Gold Skulls, Blue Bird Features and Goddess Plumes. :)

Where's a guy like him get all this loot?

[DylanB2000]

@RupeeClock i know right

[DarkReminense]

Hey. I know nothing special happens when you exceed 43 cuts, but I have to ask whether his dialogue changes or not when you exceed it? If so, what does he say?

[eetaman]

That dude was either distracted by something and only counted one or you cut the bamboo so fast that he only counted one. Either way, he's a jerk, and I hate the sounds he makes! Creeps me out lol

[TheJabbawakie]

HOW THE.... I have the master sword how did u cut it so thinly

[XxImIrishxX]

DO u have to have the ,aster sword to power up ur sword so fast?

[zackolot]

I think I'd rather get 28 so I can get more Goddess Plumes and Blue Bird Feathers...

[RupeeClock]

@So just stop slicing once you get past 28 slices, that part's not hard with this technique.

I've only triggered this glitch twice, the first time was 77 slices which I didn't get to record.

[noscreenname1]

Are those diagonal slices or verticle?

[OwenVinni]

There's no way that was 65 cuts... Someone count the slow mo

[Fabrazz]

@OwenVinni It was about 20.

[RupeeClock]

@Fabrazz It may have been about 20 swings of the sword, but one swing can cut more than one section of bamboo at once.

[kukingina]

can you do this with the 1st goddess sword?

[SuperSupermario24]

@kukingina: I'm not having much success with the SECOND one, so I'm not sure.

[100vivitar]

@kukingina yes but its harder

[wurty]

Nice find dude

[Zeldarulah]

What did you do with your nunchuk to keep it from registering your attacks as 'spin' attacks?

[wurty]

@Zeldarulah he was holding the wiimote with both hands so he could cut perfectly straight

[Zeldarulah]

Goes up to 64... so they really only dedicated 6 bits to that variable? x.x

[bla287]

@Zeldarulah Exactly what I just thought... I mean the Wii has 88 MB RAM and then they were so cheap and used a 6 bit variable for that, wow. Even the rupee count in the original LoZ for the NES was at least 8 bit...

[MrSuperbadr]

@Zeldarulah Isnt it 8 bits?

[Zeldarulah]

@MrSuperbadr Nope. 2^6 = 64. 2^8 = 256. The original Zelda dedicated 8 bits to Rupees, that's why it only went up to 255 (1 bit dedicated to 0)

[Zeldarulah]

@MrSuperbadr You probably did 8^2 instead of 2^8.

[MrSuperbadr]

@Zeldarulah Yeah, i apologize :x

[DunnoRofl]

@Zeldarulah L . O . L .

[GigamanEXE]

@Zeldarulah Obviously they didn't because the maximum value that can be stored in 6 bits is 63. Computer science noobs.

[Zeldarulah]

@GigamanEXE Mm, not true. It would go up to 63 if it includes 0, which it does, and I found that strange myself. I assume that for whatever reason they use a separate variable for when a single slice has never been done, which makes sense, because the timer does not begin until after the first slice.

Or perhaps you have a better explanation as to why it ends at 64?

[Zeldarulah]

@GigamanEXE Oh, and, it just occured to me that I am definitely correct: The uploader had 65 slices, but it said only one, if it had looped back to 0 (in other words, if this number ranged from values 0-64) it would have looped back to 0 for the 65th hit, not 1. So 0 is simply displayed there as a constant, and then replaced with a 6 bit variable after the first slice, most likely because that's what causes the event to really start.

Computer science noob :P

[GigamanEXE]

@Zeldarulah

Ah, so what you're saying is basically that all the hits after the first are counted in 6 bits while the first cut is counted separately as the ready to count condition. Makes sense, I forget that you couldn't even get 0. I realized when I have been bested good sir, and I stand corrected.

[Zeldarulah]

@GigamanEXE Haha. Glad to hear it :) Was fun to analyze it a bit more as a prospective game programmer.

[metroidgus]

@Zeldarulah almost correct sir since binary numbers range from 0 to 2^n-1 in this case since its 6 bits the highest possible number for an unsigned int variable can have is 63 that what (111 111) is after that it will go to 64 count up one more and overflow to 000 000 and for the 65th hit it will count up to 000 001

[DarthYoda27]

@GigamanEXE YEAH I KNOW RIGHT LOL NOOBS HE'S NOT OMNISCIENT! EVERYONE'S OMNISCIENT BUT HIM LOLOLOLOL

[pl0xman123]

MASTER. I DETECT A 70% CHANCE THAT THE BAMBOO WAS ULTIMATELY DESTROYED BY YOUR BLADE.

[Euphoniumplayer29]

@pl0xman123 Don't you mean a 85% chance?

[Gaara296]

@pl0xman123

lol

[Hashim43487]

@pl0xman123 lol

[BBspike100]

@pl0xman123 What about another 30%?

[1likegames]

The sheikah stone in the room says someone had 42 cuts as a record, get that many and see if anything happens.

[Ipskies]

@1likegames The Zeldapedia article said that nothing happens. Never actually got the score myself, though...

[Anuj071]

how diid you get a longer sword?

[DDeFederico]

@Anuj071 well.....get the first sacred flame and you get the goddess longsword wth makes your sword do twice as much damaqge and makes it longer,the second flame idk what that does,the third one basicly makes it the master sword

[SuperSupermario24]

@DDeFederico: The second one allows you to dowse up to 8 objects instead of 4.

[blazera]

THE BAMBOO

IS

GONE

[KratosDivine]

That was awesome but it was kinda sad that the fat why said you only got 1 cut!? Punch him in the face! D:

[SuperSupermario24]

@KratosDivine: That number represents how many times you should slice him in half.

[silentsaito]

Thank you. Now I know not to waste my time on him then. Im here thinking I better get a heart for this. Guess not. lol

[ReneReaper]

@silentsaito Oh darn, so was I.
