RTABC

2023-09-13T00:52:39Z

Npenplz: Updated the link to marblers one to be the one on his yt channel (twitch link is dead, feel free to change it to the unabridged videos if its more applicable :P)

''For the guide, please see [[RTABC Guide]]''
{{stub}}
{{RTA Button Challenge Infobox}}
The '''RTABC''' ('''Real Time A Button Challenge''') is a variation on the popular [[A Button Challenge]], where all gameplay must be done in real-time.
== Completed Runs ==
The current RTABC 70 Star world record, achieved by Marbler, finishes with a total of 2 A Presses and with a time of approximately 28 hours, 18 minutes, and 22 seconds.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ6YEjURYfU Beating SM64 in Just 2 A Presses by Marbler]</ref> The current RTABC 120 Star world record, achieved by BillyWAR1, finishes with a total of 216 A presses and with a time of 8 hours, 36 minutes, and 6 seconds.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1QWSGqGbgA <nowiki>"[RTABC WR] SM64 120 Star in 216 A Presses - 8:38:06" by BillyWAR</nowiki>]</ref> The current RTABC "Max Stars 0xA" world record, achieved by Zyon, finishes with a total of 37 stars and with a time of 4 hours, 41 minutes, and 36 seconds.<ref>[https://youtu.be/XBCE4RS1-EI " SM64 RTABC - Max Stars 0xA - 37 Stars in 4:41:36 " by Zyon]</ref>

[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MDgm0yj5IJeqYMJlOdbKyIz66aX1Y3dYm79_wIePxY0/ The RTABC spreadsheet] contains leaderboards for individual stars, stages and full game categories; optimal routes for 70 Star, 120 Star, and Max Stars 0xA; conjectured improvements, and many other useful references.
==A Presses Left==
A '''unique A press''' refers to a single circumstance under which the A button must be pressed during a run. This circumstance may occur multiple times, leading to multiple A presses; if a workaround is found for the unique A press, all of those individual A presses may be saved.

Currently, a theoretical 120 star run would take 68 A presses, a theoretical 70 star run would take 2 A presses on N64 (1 in BitFS and 1 in BitS), and 53 stars are possible without pressing A.
Out of the 69 A presses left in the 120 star run, 47 of them (give or take) are unique. Below is a table listing all of them:

Some A presses require A to be held, but not pressed. These A presses are called Half A Presses and can come from a previous A press instead of a new one, so saving one wouldn't actually lower the A press count.

The half a presses are listed below:

==Possible A Press Saves==
=== Jolly Roger Bay ===
It may be possible to get speed from the pillar and reactivate it some other place to ground pound the blue coin switch 0x for 100 coins, and would save A press #3. Ivan178 has shown that it is possible to get speed from the pillar to get Blast to the Stone Pillar 0x.<ref>[https://youtu.be/s8_xIqAbTO0 " SM64 RTABC Blast to the Stone Pillar 0xA 8:54 "]</ref>
=== Dire Dire Docks ===
Ivan178 posted two videos of him getting 3 of the glitchy ledge grabs to get up the corkboxes up the ship all first try, and another video of him diving onto the nearby pole allowing him to get up to the red coin platform 0x.<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/483523417442746368/743910895486238840/1120093736412663849 " DDD Red Coin Platform 0xA " ]</ref> This showed potential for Collect the Caps 0x.
=== Wet-Dry World ===
The express elevator star has been proven 0.5x for a while, with the only known "possible" improvement to be using downwards VSC and precise b-swimming to get onto the elevator before it gets out of the water. However, pannenkoek2012 found that by getting light chuckya on the platform that has the top of the town star, slidekicking off (which also releases chuckya), then going into Mario cam to stop rendering chuckya, and assuming good RNG, chuckya will throw Mario onto the elevator activating it, chuckya will be running into the switch because its too far away from its home, but the slope of the switch lets chuckya stay in place which allows Mario to grab chuckya and throw him such that chuckya pushes Mario inside of the elevator room while the elevator is down.<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/483523417442746368/483530960646832149/1142480476666347520 " WDW Elevator Clip " ]</ref> This saves Half A Press #3, the only half a press not located in DDD, and would make Wet-Dry World the 4th course to be fully 0x.
=== Rainbow Ride ===
On February 10th 2023, PapaQBall shared an idea to save the 32nd A press, to get over the first blue block in Rainbow Ride 0x using VSC from a slidekick bounce from one carpet to another carpet, then ledgegrab up on top of the blue block.<ref>[https://discord.com/channels/483523417442746368/483531058382372874/1073497643801653258 " RR Carpet VSC Attempt "]</ref> Unfortunately, the ledgegrab was too slow. However, pannenkoek2012 showed later that it would be possible to get back onto the carpet with a dive rollout on the edge of the block.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E15R10PJPlw " RR Clearing the First Glass Block using VSC "]</ref> This would save A press #31
=== Bowser in the Sky ===
Currently, the A press count for Bowser in the Sky and BitS reds is 1 and 6 respectively. All of the improvements made in the Bowser in the Sky 1x video can be replicated in 6x to get BitS reds down to 2.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30OZ7VTN4xo <nowiki>" BitS: Clear, no Reds, 1xA [RTA] "</nowiki>]</ref> The Chuckya Wrong Throw setup is also repeatable, meaning you can do it however many times you want. This leaves the final count for BitS to likely be 1 for both reds and no reds.

RTABC Guide/Wall Kicks Will Work

2023-09-12T23:00:29Z

Npenplz: Added note to try not to touch joystick in 0x and added 0.5x strategy (hi zyon)

{{stub}}
This is a guide for how to beat the star Wall Kicks Will Work with 0 A presses in an RTABC run.
==Method==

=== 0xA Strategy ===
'''This method is advanced and not recommended for beginners.'''
Frame walk up to the peak of the mountain, then slide down and bounce off a Spindrift. You'll have a ton of speed, so rebound off the course barrier and the side of the mountain a few times before being able to reach the star. Try to touch the joy stick as little as necessary, as that will decrease your horizontal speed.

=== 0.5xA Strategy ===
While holding A, you can jump kick up to the are with the baby penguin then do a dive recover onto the spindrift. Because holding A causes you to fall slower, it lets you adjust your position much as you need while still having the speed needed to spin into the star.

:''For a tutorial on speedrunning the corresponding star, see the [[RTA_Guide/Tower_of_the_Wing_Cap|Wing Cap RTA Guide]]''
The '''Tower of the Wing Cap''' or '''TotWC''' is a secret stage where you unlock the [[Wing Cap]]. It is accessible after collecting 10 stars; a bright light shines on the sun mat in the foyer, and looking at the source with the C-Up button sends you to TotWC. A first person angle of -6144 is required to enter, making it possible to enter without the joystick. The coins are impossible however it is possible to press the switch to activate wing cap boxes. <ref>https://youtu.be/NGl55-fCKj4</ref>
[[File:TotWC_Entrance.jpeg|300px|thumb|border|The ceiling of the castle foyer as viewed with C^ from the central sun carpet. Looking at this spot with 10 or more stars warps you into the level.]]
==Coins==
Collecting all of the coins in this course is deceptively difficult, and was at one point thought to be impossible due to the difficult maneuvering. There's a total of 63 coins here.

* The only time a C button is required in the game is to when entering TotWC.

'''Shoot to the Island in the Sky''' is the third mission of [[Bob-omb Battlefield]]. To complete it, Mario must hit the item box on the floating island and collect the Power Star inside. This can be accomplished through many means such as using a nearby cannon to reach the island, or simply long-jumping from the mountain summit.
==A Button Challenge==
The first method discovered was to use a [[Goomba structure]] to get on the island.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54iInYhelg4” SM64 - Shoot to the Island in the Sky - 0x A Presses (Abridged)” By pannenkoek2012]</ref> It was originally thought that 15 goombas were required, but upon closer examination, it was clear only 7 were needed. Before getting up to the top of the island, a bowling ball is placed below the star box by crouching while holding a clone, releasing it at the HOLP but at Mario’s height. This is use to release a goomba clone below the star box so that Mario can utilize its bounce to reach the star, which is too high for a dive recover to reach.
The first method soon was replaced with faser strategies. One time save involved using a single [[Goomba]] [[clone]] and a [[bloated Bob-omb]] to reach the island.
Since then, this star can be done 0x in just over 30 seconds.<ref>[https://youtu.be/nuMlcWkDmMw "(TAS) Shoot to the Island in the Sky 31"20" by fifdspence]</ref> This is done by using shell hyperspeed to build up roughly 450 speed, then climbing the mountain and speeding off the edge and landing directly ontop of the star box.
==TAS History<ref> [https://www35.atwiki.jp/sm64tas/pages/22.html Super Mario 64 Record Keeping Wiki]</ref> ==
{{TAS History}}
===TAS Strategy===
The original strategy was to [[Backwards Long Jump|BLJ]] off of the elevator, then travel up the mountain, starting at a steep slope near the bottom. Mario then launches off the side of the mountain and lands on the island.
This was replaced by a new strategy in the [https://youtu.be/xL6VE_5PddM "120 Star TAS (2012)"]. After BLJing on the evelator, mario grabs onto a tree to convert his speed into forewards speed, then double jump dives off of a nearby rock, which lands him onto the island.
Although not a faster strategy, in late 2015 Tomatobird8 found an interesting strategy which was similar to the double jump strategy, but instead of BLJing off of the elevator, used a [[Cork Box]] and the sloped bridge to build speed.<ref>[https://youtu.be/jLfxqWzvuvw "Super Mario 64 - Shoot to the island in the Sky Strat (slower)" by homerfunky]</ref>

'''Footrace with Koopa the Quick''' is the 2nd star in [[Bob-omb Battlefield]]. The star can be collected by talking to [[Koopa the Quick]] to start his race, and getting to the flag on the mountain before he does. The race prohibits Mario from using the cannon, which Koopa the Quick claims is "cheating". However, the use of teleports and the wing cap is allowed. Also, there are no protections against finishing with a time that would be normally impossible without glitches, so all forms of hyperspeed are allowed.

Given that this star has a timer built in, minimizing the in-game time has been a long standing challenge since the early days of Mario 64. Using a glitch, it is possible to finish the race with an in-game time of 0.0 seconds<ref>[https://youtu.be/iuL46B5Uzec?t=74 "SM64 - Koopa the Quick Turns Invisible Glitch" by pannenkoek2012]</ref>, but the star is not obtainable, because KtQ deactivates when Mario reaches the flagpole and doesn't get reactivated.
==TAS History==

The fastest in-game time without the 0.0 glitch is 1.7 seconds (real time 1.73) by dar gos<ref>[https://youtu.be/7Lq0RwVnNK0 "(TAS) Koopa the quick (TAS) in 1"73 igt no 0"00 glitch {TAS}" by dar gos]</ref>.

Lethal Lava Land

'''Lethal Lava Land''' is the seventh course of ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. It can be accessed from the painting containing a red fireball in the basement room of the Princess Peach's castle.

==Course Versions==
There are two versions of the course that can appear by selecting different stars. Keep in mind that if there are any blue stars (uncollected) present in the star selection menu, then the last version that can be selected is the first blue star and not the stars after it:
*'''Version 1''': Accessed by selecting Star 1 through Star 4. There is no [[shell]].
*'''Version 2''': Accessed by selecting Star 5 through Star 6. The [[shell]] is found inside an item block on the starting platform.

==Coins==
The max amount of coins for this stage is 133, being split between outside and inside of the volcano (107 outside, 26 inside). This stage is also to home to possibly the most difficult non-glitchy coin in the game- a high bully in the volcano that requires a leap of faith to grab before it lands in the lava. There are no known methods of improving the max number of coins in this map.
{{LLL Coins}}

==A Press Counts==
In the A Button Challenge, it takes one A Presses to collect all seven stars. The lone A press is used to long jump from the Hot-Foot-It into the Volcano platform.

===Entering Lethal Lava Land ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/mlHzqJn2SMs?t=2m4s ''

Performing a dive recover (press ''B'' at run speed) allows entering the painting without pressing A.

===Boil the Big Bully ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/NbUWR0IkNxE ''

As the course is filled with lava, Mario can go to higher platforms by simply using lava boosts. Therefore, Mario has no difficulty getting to the platform of the Big Bully and defeat it to collect the star.

===Bully the Bullies ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/_szjkqYGwkI ''

Mario goes to the platform with three bullies present and defeats all the bullies on the platform. The star is then collected by a lava boost nearby.

===8-Coin Puzzle with 15 Pieces ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/4PXUXKf2ghU ''

Bowser's puzzle is reached by sliding kicking and dive-recovering. The eight coins on the puzzle are then quickly collected for the star to appear since the geometry of the course is mostly flat, easing navigation.

===Red-Hot Log Rolling ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/BxCJYoxELvk ''

As the shell is not available at this point, Mario must reach the log behind the steel-grate platform without a shell. After a couple of lava boosts, Mario gets on top of the log and rolls on it, and finally collects the star with a well-timed dive.

===Hot-Foot-It into the Volcano ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/Po3yFHGTieE ''

Mario enters the volcano. For the next two stars, Mario will utilize the lava boost from the "lavafall", but the major obstacle is how many lava boosts Mario can use without dying. Fortunately, a spinning heart is nearby allowing Mario to regain HP, allowing Mario to reach the destination with 0 A presses with a complicated route.

First, Mario gets on the moving platform with a lava boost and ZB bounces onto the lavafall (Mario is immune to lava effects when slide kicking) to land on the narrow bridge above with 2 lava boosts. Once there, Mario descends to the spinning platform and exploits the heart healing Mario's HP for an extended duration. Mario then moves back to the bottom of the lavafall quickly (since the higher platform is too high to reach) to go back to the higher platform with 3 lava boosts, restores HP with 3 coins, and quickly uses one more to reach the small platform with a pole. From there, Mario performs the final movement of ZB bouncing to the lavafall with height (while collecting 2 coins to restore HP) and uses 2 more lava boosts to reach Hot-Foot-It into the Volcano platform, collecting the star.

===Elevator Tour in the Volcano ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/IrXqE6DDt0I ''

A sequence of slow bully battery, fast bully battery, PU rotational displacement, then PU movement makes the star possible in 0 A presses

===LLL 100 coins ''(0x)''===
:''Video: https://youtu.be/b3XxfYRYPHo ''

There are enough coins to collect outside the volcano, and so Mario collects most of the coins using a shell and grabs additional coins from bullies and Mr. I.

==Cloning==
Since there is a [[Crazy Box]] in Lethal Lava Land, it is theoretically possible to make clones by dropping the Crazy Box and then grabbing it as it explodes. No method has been found to successfully accomplish this, however.

The crazy box can be instant released by diving into the side of the platform it sits on, but currently efforts to move it to a place it can be grabbed have been unsuccessful.

It is worth noting that grabbing the Crazy Box fake would not allow for any extra coins. Grabbing a fake Crazy Box results in the crazy box being destroyed without dropping any of its original coins, so if the fake box was used to clone a coin it would result in a net loss of 4 coins.
