For those unfamilar - a TAS is a Tool Assisted Superplay/Speedrun. Playthroughs like this are created by a person recording and adjusting their inputs frame by frame in an emulator, and then playing those recorded inputs back in a video like the one you see here Silly Billy% TAS by Wafflewizard1 - czcams.com/video/3pD8YzWXy1Q/video.html
It's actually disconnecting the controller that lets you use Spyro in sub-areas meant for other characters, the game just pauses automatically when the controller disconnects because the devs knew it'd be frustrating to die because the controller disconnected at a bad time.
@@WaffleWizard Ah, okay, I wasn't aware of the frame-perfect pause method. I only knew the disconnected controller method because it was explained in a 117% speedrun I watched where they used it to get Spyro into the You're Doomed missions in Fireworks Factory so they could just charge through, rather than shooting the shit with Agent 9.
The pink texture corruption reveals the UI elements are done with polygons, the water stays blue I think because it’s vertex painted The skybox being culled at the end is almost certainly an unrealistic failsafe for when too much is on screen Another thing I noticed is the parallel universe in Cloud Spires isn’t solid and has no objects loaded, but the Fireworks Factory one is, I wonder if something was activated by the shots or something
The "parallel universes" never have collision or objects. The one with Agent 9 in Fireworks Factory was just getting a stupid amount of height and slowly falling back into the actual level.
Oh my god lol, way back in the early days of CZcams (like 2007/2008, man it's nuts to think that this game was still fairly _recent_ back then) there was a video that did exactly what this TAS ended on. They just flew around in the UFO shooting down sheep until there were dozens in the arena. I can't remember if it ended with a crash or not, who knows if the video even still exists out there... childhood memory unlocked by watching this TAS LOL
11:00 Notice how the entire area is pink except for far away objects, until you get close to them? For example, as you get a bit closer to the green hills, they start fading to pink. It seems like the corrupt colour pallet only applies to close objects and leaves the level of detail map in tact.
that's how the PS1 spyro games did LOD, they have a static low poly background mesh that gets vertex painted, where each point on the mesh has a color and that gets blended along the triangles. and that gets blended with a normal textured mesh nearby. That way the PS1 spyro games could avoid the occlusion fog typical in that era. except when it's atmospheric like spyro1's misty bog which in the remake should have still had that fog instead of removing what made it *misty* bog. (yeah I'm salty)
@@ratchet1freak I understand the level of detail system fine, what's interesting is that the LoD mesh doesn't corrupt like the foreground does. Also yeah, imagine not having mist in a level with mist in the name lmao
i use a ps1 controller + a ps2 to usb adaptor like this one -> www.amazon.com/Controller-Adapter-Converter-Compatible-Gamepad/dp/B097MXJ1BW/ref=sr_1_4?crid=6CUNNZ5NTEXL&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.jlgr3wnmsXNR1zAzMFSc2YtR6gC_fnX1w9ie8sOh-nhs1hOyV-CLJLQ9zMlwXcPRaaLg4x_mTTJuwIUoHJvInKUwAzgLf_pllWAOc1b8i0coig-Rtk6ib82clXFEVHFGmp-O3kVQV6EdKs1X4z5GZHAsnYjDxWQkdP67jcj8rJbaLB3-hOXAXsOVv9IsTWkfjU9MkqiOO9hVOecfZAKuhHB_smY15zVod6hxoAJcBSY.BqFLmF2AnCoF9Gie6h6561T6FhwynYbZQARZ_XWtOAU&dib_tag=se&keywords=ps2+to+usb+adapter&qid=1721062082&sprefix=ps2+to+usb+adap%2Caps%2C72&sr=8-4
It’s because this is revision 0 of the game, which has a bunch of level songs in the wrong places and even a missing cutscene. You likely grew up with revision 1, also known as the Greatest Hits version, which restores the correct songs and that cutscene.

@@jruler93 Unplugging the controller is the free way of getting it, you can also get it by pressing pause frame perfectly

why kill the final boss when you can just kill the whole game
F for “very fast speed run”
the constant laughing and "WHAT", he is unpredictable
The next TAS better be called "Silly Goose"
Edit: F
i'm guessing that colorful disc is the model of that rainbow effect you see when Bianca comes in

Really appreciating the use of NTSC 1.0 ( almost same as PAL ) for the original selection of music
23:30 Nitrofski getting his revenge
Catbug isn't (F)rom Adventure Time. He's from a show called Bravest Warriors.

@@cameodamaneo that's because no textures are used in the LOD mesh
@@ratchet1freak Oh, I seeee!
Can’t wait for the reaction video of a reaction of another reaction
2:18 the key, not the felony
Every copy of Spyro 3 is personalised
FINALLY!!! a woman who sees how devilishly handsome this man is!!! very happy for you dayo
This is truly masterpiece
F for very fast speedrun ;) -- this was awesome
Now that I have seen it spyro should have allways bin pink
55:01 "guess he's pushing the ram" in chat. Now does that mean RAM (random access memory) or ram (a male sheep)?
TASes go hard af 😂
What is the best controller you would recommend for emulating PlayStation 1 or 2 games?
i use a ps1 controller + a ps2 to usb adaptor like this one -> www.amazon.com/Controller-Adapter-Converter-Compatible-Gamepad/dp/B097MXJ1BW/ref=sr_1_4?crid=6CUNNZ5NTEXL&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.jlgr3wnmsXNR1zAzMFSc2YtR6gC_fnX1w9ie8sOh-nhs1hOyV-CLJLQ9zMlwXcPRaaLg4x_mTTJuwIUoHJvInKUwAzgLf_pllWAOc1b8i0coig-Rtk6ib82clXFEVHFGmp-O3kVQV6EdKs1X4z5GZHAsnYjDxWQkdP67jcj8rJbaLB3-hOXAXsOVv9IsTWkfjU9MkqiOO9hVOecfZAKuhHB_smY15zVod6hxoAJcBSY.BqFLmF2AnCoF9Gie6h6561T6FhwynYbZQARZ_XWtOAU&dib_tag=se&keywords=ps2+to+usb+adapter&qid=1721062082&sprefix=ps2+to+usb+adap%2Caps%2C72&sr=8-4
F! also just wanted to say i'm a big fan of your 120% runs! Keep up the good work dayo!
What was better this or silly%
That sheep segment at the end though.
F
This looked like some alpha without textures version, lol.
Dayo should rewatch 39:35 if he hasn't already
I noticed that like 30% of the tracks were wrong. idk how that was accomplished.
It’s because this is revision 0 of the game, which has a bunch of level songs in the wrong places and even a missing cutscene. You likely grew up with revision 1, also known as the Greatest Hits version, which restores the correct songs and that cutscene.
F
There gotta be at least 3 sheep there
you missed the F out of greta flip
F - very fast speedrun
Not surprised the video doesn’t have 1000 likes
F to pay respects
F for Fast
23:30 So that's why WaffleWizard has Nancy as his avatar. Yes! XD
Christmas Goose
Tool Assisted Superballs is a good band name for a punk band
F for Furious amounts of sheep
Dayo the Spyro king
5:54 extremely cute
Nice reaction, I love your videos, I wish you new success in speedruns, and of course, one twenty!
spyro 3 is my favourite spyro :)
F. Sad for not seeing Bianca fucking Hunter in Fireworks Factory, still a great reaction and TAS dayoHEART dayoCOMFY
Run starts at 1:39 :D
Dayo can you do crafting stream
No. Thx for watching tho
Big F

6:00 What is it? A "woman"? How many eggs or gems i need to unlock them?
A miserable little pile of secrets
He was paying more attention to his chat than the TAS. I feel sorry for waffle.
Sorry i didn't watch it correctly lol
@@Dayoman Dunno what he means. Only 15 mins in so far, but you're definitely watching.
