***READ BEFORE WATCHING***
This tool-assisted speedrun by Swordless Link (me) aims to beat The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time while beating all of the dungeons, temples, and Ganon Trials in as little a time as possible. This category is widely known as "all temples", "all dungeons", "MST (medallions/stones/trials)", and "no major skips".
This run is the result of many months of hard work optimising the game. I am incredibly proud of the final result.
My comments on the run can be found here: http://pastebin.c... I strongly recommend reading this, as it details all of the major tricks used in the run, as well as giving a run-down of each individual area visited in it.
It was made on an emulator, using frame-by-frame shooting, savestates, and rerecords to overcome things like reaction time and human error. As such, it is purely a form of entertainment, and is not designed to show skill.
Over the past week, there have been a series of new discoveries which have resulted in another cutscene skip being possible. It's done at the end of the Fire Temple and warps Link right to the start of the Forest Temple. I am aware of this trick, and it does not warrant a redo (and it won't hex in easily at all).
With thanks to Aktan for the wonderful encode yet again.
I have many people to thank for helping me with the run in some way, usually watching my WIPs and offering advice and new strategies. In particular, I want to thank Bloobiebla, aleckermit, bluemarth, Cosmo, maxx, MrGrunz, Slowi, and ZFG for their constant support and advice.
This run was made by me. It should not be uploaded in any form without first getting my permission.
Any anti-TAS comments will be deleted. Seriously, if you're just going to call it "cheating" or something equally ridiculous, don't even bother commenting at all, because I'll just block you. Save us both a bit of time.
