MKPC Tas Potential???

if anyone can create a tas editor for the game, I would be more than happy to help!

In all seriousness I have seen a tas of the game and wondered how to do it

Isn't a tas a bot that does exactly like a record does

A TAS (tool assisted speedrun) is where you slow the game down and take the best and fastest ways possible

tbh idk if we could be able to TAS MKPC

thanks i didnt know what tas was but now i do...

Yes, there is tas or at least there was and this video is proof of that.

wow



tbh its giving me motion sickness 😵‍💫

Yes xddd

I don't know how he did it to do the tas but you could ask him but there are 2 problems 1 he is Japanese and I don't know what time he connects and 2 I don't know if he is still active on the site

I think the TAS would be a good way to learn new techniques that could become possible in RTA, such as the one shown in the video below.https://youtu.be/NKqy4pvFLOc

I brushed this topic off as a silly joke at first and then I saw that it was written by an amazing MKPC player such as yourself, so I had to direct my attention towards it

A TAS tool for this game would be absolutely incredible, however I don't think this can be easily implemented. The main problem is that MKPC's code is like spaghetti and all over the place, so it's difficult to add new stuff

Previously, players used Chrome Extensions that allow you to slow down the speed of any website you were on, which proved as an advantage in MKPC. Some would use this as cheating, some would just use it as TAS etc.

Unfortunately, the extension got taken down a while ago so there's no realistic way of having a TAS right now unless you are some sort of robot. This would be amazing to see though, I have a bunch of ideas that I think might be faster but I don't have godlike reaction times

I hate TAS, he's a guy from MvLO, and he absolutely sux.
Anyways, TAS on mkpc? That's cool!

You think this could be used to find "ultra shortcuts"

Mkwii.

Hehe.

Mkpc no mkwii xd

I'm not sure it would be that insane because of how different the checkpoint systems are between PC and Wii. In Wii (I may be a little wrong (I'm no pro)), you have to hit the last key checkpoint before hitting the first normal checkpoint in a track, or be able to touch all key checkpoints. A couple famous examples of the first is the Grumble Volcano, Wario Gold Mine, and Mushroom Gorge. An example of the other one would be the Coconut Mall out of bounds glitch. In MKPC, however, I'm pretty sure you have to hit ALL the checkpoints to complete a lap. I have seen 1 ultra shortcut be done with the moving wheel in DS Bowser's Castle, but I don't remember any of the details other than you have to go fast enough to use it to go out of bounds to skip the big turn to get to the spinny log thing.

Sorry for double posting, but I also wanted to say that I'm pretty sure that you can also save states and make certain inputs with a bot by putting them into something kind of like a spreadsheet, and those inputs are put in on the select frames. Also, TASs aren't always done just for speedrunning. They can be used for glitch hunting (which can be used for speedruns) or whatever you're hearts desire is like "programming" Pong or Snake in Super Mario World(that's real by the way)

Mkwii is the Mario kart
