      This is why I think speedrunning games is an argument for us living in a simulation. it's a stretch I know but there are games within the game that devs never knew people would be playing. It was in the code but the devs never intended for people to use it that way. It reminds me of the mandlebrot set. That uniquely infinite fractal pattern created with math was there before humans knew what math was. Before the earth was a thing, math created the mandlebrot set and within it are things that look like elphants, other animals, landscapes, and trees.
      We as humans create things quite simply, and within it we can discover unforeseen complexities that run so deep we can spend a lifetime trying to perfect our understanding of them.

    It's been a fascinating 6 years to say the least with plenty of highs and lows, but especially as I find myself attempting to pursue a computer science degree, I've been perfectly content living my life and maintaining a (relatively small) internet presence (mainly on twitter).
    I still get comments with people making A Press jokes at least several times a week (a year or two ago, it was as often as every day of my life), but I've noticed an interesting phenomenon. At a certain point, when you hear the same joke over a thousand times, you become so good at ignoring it, that you begin to stop noticing when it happens at all.
    There have been points where I have considered completely deleting my account and starting fresh, but I'm glad it never came to that since I believe it has made me a stronger person overall.

    If anyone is interested in the concept of "writing code while inside the game", basically memory manipulation, you should really check out the speedruns for a game called Dark Cloud 2. In that run, they specifically modify the stat values of different weapons and items to write specific values to specific memory slots. Its like the run at 12:00, but to a much much more insane degree, and eventually they manipulate the memory to unlock developer/debug mode and then teleport to the final boss fight and give themselves maxed gear.

  • @jadedplover1851
    @jadedplover1851 Před 2 lety +108

    I wanted to give a quick explanation for how the Super Mario World credits warp works. In computer memory there is static and dynamic memory. Static memory holds things like textures, backgrounds, and the instructions for the game, etc. Dynamic memory holds things like enemy positions, item spawn timers, animation data, basically anything that changes during gameplay.
    These enemy positions and other dynamic memory values are represented by numbers, so are the instructions in static memory, the difference is that the computer is treating the positions like positions and the instructions like instructions.
    As the game runs a cursor (points to the current instruction being run) moves down the static memory instructions and runs them. As it does this it might jump back and forth between lines, for example if mario picks up a coin it might jump to the line with the instruction that increases the coin counter.
    The game can be glitched so that the cursor running instructions in static memory actually jumps to the dynamic memory where our enemy positions and yoshi position, animation data. etc. is all stored. Normally this causes a crash because the game will try to run a number that doesn't correspond to a valid instruction. However if we change our dynamic memory to numbers that do correspond to valid instructions the game will happily run these as if they were.
    In this glitch the values in dynamic memory correspond to instructions that jump the cursor to the end credits instructions in static memory and these are run causing the credits to start.

      @@Vokoca Sorry, 5 months late, there are numerous faster methods of achieving this same goal, however they require much more precise positions. Most of the values set in this version of the skip are quite leniant as far as memory manipulation goes since they are only manipulating the x sprite position and not the x position of the Koopa which could be subpixel, sprite positions are not subpixel perfect.
      The exact y coordinates do not matter as much either since they are being used to tell the game where to jump the cursor to, as long as this is in a range somewhere before the manipulated memory then the computer will skip over unmanipulated memory and end up running the manipulated part.
      Bonus part: If the koopa dies too high then the cursor may be set too far before the manipulated memory and the game will crash before reaching it. If the koopa dies too low then the cursor will end up starting in the middle of the manipulated memory and will only partially run the manipulated memory also causing a crash.

    If anyone is curious for more info, this is called "arbitrary code execution". You modify the state of memory in very specific RAM addresses, then find a way to treat that block of addresses as code. In this case, the whole Yoshi egg, shells, etc, is setting up the state of the RAM. When Yoshi grabs the coin created by the fireball at the same time mario grabs it, it confuses the code and causes it to run what is in memory at that exact address as code (instead of increasing your coin counter). This is why working with pointers is scary. If you don't know what you're overwriting, it can have seemingly random and dire consequences in your code.

      @@cookieface80 Evidently not. Applying an informal definition to a nomenclature is a category error.
      It is the same form of mistake as "correcting" someone with another definition of a used word. E.g. I say something is orthogonal and you take it to be a malapropism, as I did not refer to right angles or see any link to them in my written text. The word orthogonal can also be used to denote statistical independence aka a complete lack of correlation.
      Hopefully this better helps you to understand category errors, and why that specific input was incorrect.

      Basically it's because there's a conversion from a big number to a small number, so a position above 32767 gets wrapped around to -32768+reminder, making it so collision is checked for position 0,0 is the same as 0, 65536, and same in the other direction.
      This is actually decently common to see in programs, as smaller numbers are faster for the computer to deal with, and so lossy conversion that has a repeating pattern happens.
      Though now we use at least 32 bit, so it's way harder to actually use.

    The glitch with the $1000 bounty was legit caused by a random cosmic ray causing a specific bit on his computer to flip from a 1 to a 0 which corresponded to Mario's vertical position and made him warp upwards. Took years for somebody to realize this and it's like a 1 in a trillion thing to happen. Veratasium mentioned it in a video as did multiple articles when it was discovered what caused it as the odds that it happened during a speedrun attempt live on Twitch is astronomical and because of the publicity the cash bounty to reproduce what was precieved as a normal glitch got. And the fact that the bounty was offered by the same guy that went viril over the .5 A press Henry thing that's been memed do death is crazy. That video caused him to have a mental breakdown though and made him not do commentary videos anymore while it got Henry an audience on Twitch and CZcams and he collabed on stuff with other streamers later on and did speedruns.

They generally usually cannot be seen with the naked eye. And that flagpole clip requires such precision that it needs to be in the right sub-pixel, and that can't even be accomplished via normal movement - you need to have something else shift Mario by a fraction of a pixel, such as a corner boost, or maybe jumping on a certain enemy in a specific way, etc.
