That quality seems SDA-grade (if the youtube encoding worsened it like I expect >.>)

I'm reuploading the Tomba! run due to some errors, and will post some edited Tomba! 2 progress when I can get a registered DVD ripper.

Yeah, i'm quite happy with the quality. And yes it looks slightly worse on YouTube. I just wonder when Segment 1 is gonna get processed. It's taking a long time...

Thanks for subscribing by the way! Smiley

Oooh, you've uploaded the first segment already? That was quick!

Yes I have. But it hasn't processed yet and there is no sound. I've recorded Segs 2 and 3 as well.

This be's only a practice run at the moment, right? How near to final-quality (of play) is this run?
I've got my run segmented moreso than you, and I still don't know about the PAL/NTSC difference, so these vids should be interesting...

It's only a practice run :0
I'm working on editing and posting a time-less, cutscene-less segment 1 for youtube. It is my final run, so I want to keep anticipation up (hence not showing any times). I haven't recorded beyond that though.

Cool. Well the cutscene-less is understandable due to the......loads of cutscenes.

And you're right, it is after all just a practice. Segment 5 will be up possibly tomorrow. And i've decided to make the Water Pig Segment 7....it's better that way.

Working on the 2nd segment, still haven't nailed it perfect (enough).
My goal time is sub-1:30. I base that on Laguna's times in his practice run, along with my ruined half-run and pure speculation. (similar to my Tomba! 1 goal of 40 :p)

I hate to say it, Laguna, but with all of the bad planning in your route, I wouldn't be surprised if it was rejected on run quality (for poor route decisions). There are easily enough magic wings to satisfy ones even as wing-happy as me. An example: I skip the wing you get from the pole in your first segment, yet I have enough wings later on to fly from where I get the Paon grass to Circus Village, cause it saves about 10 seconds. Just a warning-I'd really hate to see you optimize the play in the run, just to be rejected for a route.

Say, what would be consider low% for Tomba! 2? No wings, no new pants, no wooden boomerang, and no missions that aren't required? (I would never consider this for Tomba! 1 because you'd have no animal dash)

I will probably add some of your suggestions to the real thing. I understand that my route is at the moment pretty bad.

A Low% I'm not really sure about. I always thought Low% was skipping a huge part of the game. But it obviously can't be for Tombi! So I really don't know. And I don't think items and equipment would add to the %. You could try skipping some of the unneeded events like the Snow Fireflies and the Laughing Door.

Low% is beating the game with the bare minimum of items and missions. No upgrades to anything, and you can only do things that are 100% required.

Oh. Sounds interesting. Are you gonna do that? Or should I do that due to me forgetting the Magic Wings? Tongue

In fact, that would actually be quite cool.

It would be only slightly slower (I'd shoot for 1:4X), and I think the route would be easy to plan. I've finished the 2nd segment and have improved the route for the ranch area in Kujara Ranch. Videos soon, I promise Wink

Segment 5 Part 1 is up. Part 2 is uploading.

You know what, I might not record the other practice segments. I need some more time for planning and I wanna get Klonoa over and done with first. I will still practice Tombi! 2 however.

Will you be posting segments as you go for the Klonoa run? I'm editing the first three segments of my run to upload today.
Have you decided to go for low% or any% Tomba! 2?

[BTW, what happened to MTG? Holiday maybe?]

My Klonoa run is gonna be Single Segment (tough I know, but I'm gonna try). And i'm gonna stick with Any% for Tombi! 2. And I look forward to watching the segments. And i'm also gonna try and get the sound working so I can get my Klonoa run finished!

As for MTG I have no idea where's he's run off too. Tongue

I've recorded the first 3 segments, and uploaded the first to youtube. It is heavily edited, so be warned. The video was 6:51 originally (from start of play to some time after save) In other words, my save time isn't 6:51 Smiley

(It's a secret Shhhh)

I just watched it, pretty good. And note that you may have a better ending time than me due to the speed difference in the NTSC and PAL versions. In my opinion the NTSC version is slightly quicker.

If there is a difference in the PAL and NTSC versions, PAL would run at 5/6 the speed, making my time 5/6 of what yours is (if we had equal runs)
If there is a speed difference, my goal of 1:30 is equal to a goal of 1:48. (which you had beat in a practice run you posted times for) Either they're the same speed, or my goal of 1:30 is an underestimation of my abilities. (Keep in mind, I've never practice-run this route with speed being a factor, I ran through it to make sure it was possible with wing amounts and whatnot)

Is there any way to check for a difference in PAL/NTSC?
