TASBot pla.. owns Mario Kart Wii, Explained expertly by Malleo and crew (SGDQ 2019 TAS block)

- Malleo, Luke, tasPlasma, SwordOfSeals as Funky, and dwangoAC join our perfectionist mascot TASBot in "owning" Mario Kart Wii individual levels as shown at SGDQ 2019
Malleo, Luke, and tasPlasma along with 17 other authors in the Mario Kart Wii TASing community put together a showcase for SGDQ 2019 of some of the most interesting and entertaining individual level Tool-Assisted Speedruns with additional commentary provided by SwordOfSeals and TASBot's keeper, dwangoAC. This was made possible through recent accuracy improvements in the Dolphin Emulator. In the emulator, authors can create time trial ghosts. As of more recent Dolphin Emulator versions, authors can transfer these ghosts to real unmodified hardware and successfully play back the time trial.
This TAS showcase makes use of a few cosmetic modifications to improve viewing experience, namely a "Live Replay" code which makes the race appear as if it is being performed live. This allows the viewer to hear the course music as well as character audio, as opposed to the vanilla replay system which uses one background song with no in-game audio. In addition, a speedometer code and a few menuing codes were used. These menuing codes simply allowed us to navigate to the next track faster which improved the viewer experience and allowed for more tracks to be added.
The commentary present in this video is outstanding and is the end result of months of work refining and rehearsing. The result is remarkable when compared to the initial video at • Hey GDQ, TASBot plays ... where it was just me (dwangoAC) with little knowledge of what was happening in each level.

It was a pleasure working with you dwango! Thanks again to all the authors that helped make this happen. It was great to work alongside you all.
Likewise! Working with you was awesome. Your leadership and focus on rehearsal resulted in something amazing. Malleo, I'd collaborate again in a heartbeat. Thanks for the opportunity.

@@dwangoAC you guys rehearsed this? i think thats really cool and i was wondering how you were able to talk so easily about it

I'm still in shock that they got the real Funky Kong to be on the couch. I've heard he's really hard to find
its a once in a life time thing, if you miss him, you will never see him ever again!
@@VideoGameManiac8 Once in a life time thing? I thought it was a once in a blue moon thing
lmaoo nahh it’s just ricardo milos
Well, is hard to recognize him since he shaved all the fur off his body
apparently he's really busy with his career in ASMR
9:18 Ahh yes, my degree in Mario kart Wii checkpoints from Summoning Salt has done me well
Thx Blindfold Punch out man
@@roderrickgaming9949 the triple weathertenko
Thank god i got that degree, it alreadt proved to be more useful than my graduation.
Doofenshmirtz probably wanted the ghost to be called "speedruninator" but the others wouldn't let him
You have max 10 characters
@@ramoelleusrs6678 Could've been the spdrunin8r
Ramoelleus RS it’s the Tasnator
Legolas Greenleaf Doofenshmirt evil incorporated
wouldnt it make more sense for him to want TAS to be the speedruninator tho?
Funky kong being there makes this all the more better. Couldn't ask for a better hype man.
WAOW!

Oh tomathy

It says "You Lose" when you tie a ghost because you didn't win.
That's what they said.
But you didn't lose; you tied
@@nuberiffic There are no winners when you tie, just two losers.
Roses are red
Time Trials are tied
It's a sad thing to witness
though you have tried
Well, you did, but you actually didn't?
read the title and thought it was exaggerating but that was actually very impressive
I thought so too. Malleo and team really hit this one out of the park and they should all be proud.
dwangoAC, keeper of TASBot it should be “destroys” instead! Loved this btw. Especially cool after the ‘history of’ video
Literally just noticed that the background of the timer is a binary clock. Never knew that.
What?
@@blazewolf9912 It's true, I noticed as well
@@blazewolf9912 Basically it's a visualization of a counter counting up in binary
@@blazewolf9912 a clock that's represented by having lights either lit or not lit, but rather than displaying a standard number, it's base 2 where our standard numbers are base 10, base 2 is on or off, 0's are off, 1's are on, so rather than 10 (in base 10) meaning 9+1, 10 (in binary) is 1+1, in 8 digits, you can count from 0 to 255, and binary can be measured in anything because it's a matter of "something's there, or something's not there" you dont have to worry about how much is there, and you dont have to worry about WHAT is there, as long as something is occupying the space, you can consider it a 1, an on-state,
oh shoot it is. That's great.
Wait a minute, just think about it. TASBot plays Desert Bus.
Now that would be top tier gameplay.
👌👌👌
Oh yeah ... pressing left every 10 seconds or so .. such entertainment
theres a tas submission on it for about 40 days or 1000 hours
Sohaine Bee is there seriously??
@@Re-Crix yeah it got rejected
”Desert bus ultra shortcut found”
Imagine if you just went to some kind of convention where Nintendo is demoing this game when it came out, and you start the flower cup and play like a TAS
Asia be like
The racers seem so upset.
"Please Mr. Tasbot, no more, we've run this thousands of times, it's optimized now! Please let me rest!"
Sword really out there cosplaying Funky Kong lol
ITS SWORD?!!?!?! XDDDDD
Mario Kart Wii is basically the melee of Mario Kart
yes, we have a hella toxic community too
James D'Agostino I’ve never seen any Mario Kart ds speed runs
James D'Agostino I will agree with it being the best
@@ImNact Would you mind elaborating on how the Mario Kart Wii community is toxic? I have only seen that stuff on CZcams, so I'm curious to see what I have missed
@@ImNact we do?
That cosplay guy is so nice, should be called every time.
I'm pissed at the "TAS it back over" but I'm also laughing at it. The 314.15 donation also made me laugh like there was no tomorrow, and I knew SwordOfSeals was Funky from the get-go. Both watching on Twitch, and watching this VOD just enamored me with the tricks and glitches
xXavierx498 OHHH $314.15 is PI. I just realized that. 🤦🏻♂️
The donation is literally a quantity of 0 funny
@@SirTylerGolf its funny if you like that stuff
this was immensely satisfying to watch as someone who has never gotten into the speedrunning/tas community but knows a fair amount about mkwii ultra shortcuts. my only complaint is that i was disappointed to not see the wario's goldmine trick done with luigi :(
i love how the youtube compression just DIES on some of the courses, mostly rainbow road.
That was the best we could do, it's definitely way way too many things changing to keep up at supported bitrates and even the original source wasn't great so this is a stacked effect. Oh well. :)
Oof, I kinda had a feeling that was the case... 480p source Wii output, upscaled for the stream, then whatever bitrate Twitch VODs are saved as, then more transcoding and compression... it's still kinda jarring to see the couch cam and GDQ UI crystal clear, and then the gameplay looks like someone recorded it with a literal potato 🤔
@@WackoMcGoose I wish there was a better recording of it available. This is, unfortunately, the best available.
@@dwangoAC I'm surprised that it's saved at the Twitch VOD level instead of directly from the video recording equipment capturing the game footage, with the same overlay used.
Mkwii somehow always did that to CZcams, I watch MKW videos since a decade and every single video just kills YT compression
Game designers: No one's ever gonna get up there, right?
Speedrunners: *chuckle evilly*
I know that it's a TAS, it physically can not fail, but I still get anxious with how close to edges of the tracks it gets and whether it'll get a trick
i've spent a lot of time learning abt the inner machinations of this game through youtube, so i knew about everything but the toad factory skip and the dk summit tricks. you really do learn something new every day.
this is my 2nd time watching and I just realized that some of the sounds that sound like funky kong came from the couch funky... I thought he was just cosplay.
How do you come to GDQ with a TAS, lose every race and go over estimate. Truly disappointed.
As explained, the you lose bit is a side effect of playing back the ghost file, a tie is considered a loss. The estimate wasn't set in stone, we discussed adding an entire track and ultimately added three.
@@dwangoAC Was a joke, but thank you for the insight.
Lmao
Lmao
Lmao
>speedruns Mario Kart Wii
>doesn't ride a single kart
I feel so betrayed. That was great though
it's because karts are trash in that game, and the inside drifting bikes are what makes MKWii the Mario Kart game with the biggest cult following due to the "smoother" physics those bikes give to drivers.
@@calvinlittle7 plus, bikes can wheelie
I think the drivers cry because of post-TAS trauma rather than tying with the ghost.
When you clear the lap faster than any human ever did ever before, within seconds and still it is "you lose" because you are unable to improve your own record. #AsianDadMeme
yu doctor yet?
TALK TO ME WHEN U DOCTOR
sure..by forcing the game to glitch out...
@@TheJasoncash83 These are not 'legitimate' world records, but they are theoretically possible inside the limits of the game engine but *outside* the limits of human ability. If you enjoy glitchless speedruns, then watch glitchless speedruns. Don't mock what *you* choose not to understand.
@@liyifenn lolololol it's outside of the limits of the game..hence why it's using glitches.
Gotta love the enthusiasm from funky
No one:
That one dude: WHOOOO
he's cool tho xD
That's not just any dude, that's Funky Kong!!
It’s sword of seals check him out on twitch
6:55 Typial Todd Rogers start
wow that was impressive. You TAS nerds do have a great community dont you? Congrats dudes, cheers from Brasil
Imagine getting every ultra shortcut just to be told "You lose!"
it's quite funny how the music in coconut mall syncs perfectly with when tasbot goes out of bounds, the music drops and chaos ensues
Mario kart Wii seems to be a Mario kart game that holds up surprisingly well compared to future entries.
It arguably has the best driving mechanics, overall gameplay and an excellent speed running community.
And it's a living part of many people's childhoods.
TAS amplifies all that by infinity.
I thought for a second they werent going to do the rainbow road ultra but boi was I wrong
i wonder why they didnt as it is one of the cooler looking ultras
@@izouji2153 they did do it, right at the end
the clapping just destroys the audio compression lol
Boy does it ever... I need to remind people on the couch to clap but not actually clap if that made any sense...
15:52
Can we "appreciate" the fact that they really didn't think anyone was going to be up here?
The size of the cabin is so fokin big, I reckon its about 4-5x the size of the player model.
If you dont know what I mean, I dont mean stacking them ontop, I mean literally multiplying the model size.
Amazing dudess, sword with the funky cosplay also hahaha
Countdown starts at 2:31
Imagine going to a friend’s house and playing Mario cart and he just does this
make the game glitch so they win? You see that all the time with cheaters
Dang, this tasbot guy is really good
Every time I see a message like this I can never quite be sure if it's a genuine misunderstanding or a legit troll attempt. :)
@@dwangoAC troll≠joke
everytime i get to into the explitation about how they did it the guy in the funky kong gets me with his "YEAAAAH" like, fuck aksdjaskdja i forgot they got the funky-mode on bro
Would be interesting to see a tas that uses the Wii mote
"I'm using TILT controls!"
Honestly this is an epic TAS.
I got emotional at the end wow. Who thought I could cry over an ultra shortcut on a racing game.
Funky Kong is a good addition to the couch.
"We have a completely unmodified console and a completely unmodified game."
"We have changed the game to play sound during the ghosts and show a speedometer."
Collisions: Am I a joke to you
yes
Awesome shit. Even after watching the twitch highlight it's cool to see this at the event.
Party like you like it, ROCK the TasBot
bro that funky kong guy made me wanna break my own fingers you do you but oml
TASbot can't be that good, he keeps losing!
@dwangoAC, Keeper of TASBot: The reason why having an equal time with a ghost on time trial his a lose, it his because in Time trial the goal his to beat your best time, if you tie with your time, you did not beat it so it his a lose.
Woowoowooo!! yeokkaaayy! Yeayeeee!!
Fucking goose bumps
I remember time races, I was addicted to it soo mad and was trying to do all these glitches
...unfortunately it never worked though
Great job explaining, really enjoy it
Nobody
Me the day before my exams at 3am watching this vid
Beautiful. Just beautiful. There are no other words.
I know, that guy in the funky kong cosplay was just beautiful
@@calvinlittle7 his name is swordofseals aka tom, hes one of the best mkw players in the world
@@inactive6123 beautiful
the keeper of TASBot has spoken
Maybe the TAS loses because it's the ghost...and it's racing against all future TASes :0

0:45 for booting up and 2:34 for first race

YAHH HAIIIIIIIYYYYY
woo-ooo-OOOOO
4:42 Air time is slower in real life, too
Why is everyone clapping, they lost every single race.
A tie is counted as a loss and we're using the ghost system replay method which results in every race being reported as a loss.
It was a joke, but thanks anyway
Who else heard "wast wap"?
6:06 A kart has a BKT in Rainbow Road lol
3:53 Wast wap
Wireless Access Point, or last lap? or *febreeze* wet something?
Upvote for dude dressed like Funky.
After watching Summoning Salt's video, i'm not impressed by this Rainbow Road TAS anymore (watched this TAS segment from SGDQ already).
This wasn't shown at AGDQ, so I'm a bit confused what you're trying to say.
@@Malleo I meant to say SGDQ m8 (Corrected)
who tf is that funky kong dude?

Why wasn’t the ultra shortcut on rainbow road done?
I think it wasn't know back then
If you say it's an unmodified disk then how can you explain the speedometer?
As described in the video by Malleo, a cheat code was applied in memory to add that functionality as a cosmetic change only. No alterations to the game engine were made and you can find an older video on my channel where we demonstrated playing back on a completely unmodified console and disc. Does that make sense?
@@dwangoAC Oh nice‚ I thought it was a file edit.
Thanks Funky Kong
love the guy on the end
this video need more views
I thought I've seen everything. I thought wrong!
love my man crunchy kong

AWESOME!
I like the bot. He looks as soulless as me. Exactly the same dead eyes. Little story about that, a few years ago a lot of people told me that you could see my eyes shining like a galaxy, but by now people only say I stare right into their souls. I love my life :)

WHERE IS A LEGO RACERS SPEEDRUN
Oh hell nah I was trying to race against _this_ When I was a kid? Shit!
Even if carts are "trash" or "garbage" as they stated in the video, why not push their limits anyway? TAS isn't only about speed, it's also maximizing efficiency of ineffective or limited control schemes. What better way to demonstrate TAS skills than to overcome the game's built-in limits?
Yeah, all the best speed-runners use bikes cause they're more effective for pure speed and maneuverability but that just seems overly predictable. Anyone out there willing to try something different?
You're more than welcome to jump in and make a TAS with your favorite cart. It's not uncommon for a game to have a run with the "worst" character, although the less subjective that is the better. SMB2 comes to mind.
