Stick Glitch
For luls

Ani you just blow the boulder up :S

........ stfu, I'm not stupid ;_____;

Ani's not stupid.

:)

This brings back memories from the 100+ wind waker thread when we all began to take interest in this game. The talk of new tricks and route possibilities. <_< I need to start playing this game again.

I just found out that there was a fade-in at Forsaken Fortress. I don't know if you all knew about it, but it might lead to another wrong warp.

Woah, nope. What point in the game?

I haven't been able to replicate, but I have a theory that I haven't tested yet. Basically, I skipped the fade-in at Windfall by saving after the Greatfish cutscene. I think this means the game is expecting the fade-in to happen at some point. I also think that since the Pirate ship appears at Windfall (which is why the fade-in happens) and I skipped it, that some variable remains unitiated that involves being in a quadrent with the Pirate ship. Last time you were at Forsaken Fortress the Pirate ship was there and when you revisit it is gone. Now I went back into this quadrent and tried again and nothing happened. One thing I noted was that when the fade-in happened, it was night, it was raining and there was a thunderstorm (Endless night conditions).

The long and short of it is, by skipping the fade-in at Windfall and entering a quadrent with the Pirate ship during Endless night conditions (Forsaken Fortress), you get the fade-in. I wish I could explain this better x_X

EDIT:

Alternatively, you can ofcourse simply go to Forsaken Fortress during the real Endless night. That would be much simpler.

A few weeks ago in IRC, I brought up a good point of having a Map Glitch. I was thinking we could use the tingle turner or any other item and try to warp using the ballad of gales. Then the text of the tingle turner would interrupt you warping.

I tried this a few Times just now. From what I did there seems to be no time between the song and the warp.

Ani said that this method would most likely require frame perfect TASing. I tried TASing it with dolphin but it's so messy and buggy. :(

That ET chu room trick is not ss material, that that ss video of the trick some chus did not spawn, the ones that drop right away by the door. The strat looks way to too risky, and if it goes wrong you lose so much time. I'd be more comfortable trying the dekuleaf to bomb boost strat, even if ti fails you can get away with not much time lost or try it again...

Hey guy, I uploaded a few videos that could be usefull for the site, go and check my chanel

Sorry but ZFG will be a noob and say I can't put them on the site because they aren't HQ. If it's not any trouble, record these in HQ. Pretty much the same quality as this.

just agreed with TSDA that he'll put up thos vids

Check out this stuff

I found a small and useless glitch.

Run into a Cyclos cyclone, pull out your telescope, zoom in and the short cutscene will be zoomed in too.

Do you remember that trick os sidehoping to the stairs at ET, Venick409 claimed it as own, but I thin he copied from here, I am thinking about it since that video was uploaded at july and Venick's was at december

What I'd never steal credit for finding a trick, I found it by my self but, I'll edit my video description giving credit and a link to his video.

My video at least shows how to do it from first entering the room, But I'm sorry for taking credit. (when I didn't even know he found it.)

First person to pull that trick off with any consistency WITHOUT KILLING SOME CHUS BEFORE HAND gets 5 ZFG dollars. It just seemed like there were a few more chus falling from the ceiling whenever I tried the trick...

I'm trying to find a way to start off a new file with the Windwaker. The idea being that then it might be possible to visit Jabun early and get Nayru's pearl early via Windwaker dive. I haven't had any luck so far, but, today, I hope to try it on a secondary file started after beating the game. The idea being that by holding down the right combination of buttons at the start of the game, that the codes for the Deluxe Pictobox will be replaced by the codes for the Windwaker.(All this being done without cheats, obviously.) I'm hoping that with Nayru's pearl early a whole new realm of glitches & early items will be opened up, hopefully including early full powered Master Sword--eliminating the need for the Earth & Wind Temples--and already having all Triforce shards--I don't think that I need to go into depth on this one--. If anyone wants to help in this effort, feel free to. I will try to post a video if I find anything. :-\

I really hate to spoil your fun with that theory, as much as we appreciate someone wanting to break the game, but we've already determined that the Jabun cutscene is triggered by shooting down the bombable wall: the cutscene you receive Jabun's Pearl is a part of the same cutscene showing you entering the cave with KoRL. The trigger has nothing to do with entering the cave, sadly enough. We have tested this just about 2 months ago.

But not only that, you'd be making it harder on yourself anyways- you can just swim into that cave. You don't have to do a dive since the wall isn't there, and there's nothing inside of it :[

I respect what you're saying, Ani, but there is still room to try. There might be a difference by trying at the beginning of the game, and if nothing else, trading the Pictobox for the Windwaker--or any item for that matter-- would seem to be a sequence break on its own. Surely you've also done some looking into skipping the first three dungeons. I may still try to prove you wrong. And anyway, if it is possible to get the Master Sword, in full power, early then it would be possible to go to Hyrule during the first visit after defeating all the Moblins & Darknuts. I hope that you're finding a way to use wrong warp to get into the ToG early because then we might be close to the biggest sequence break since the DoT skip in OoT. :)

Try wrong-warping from Forsaken Fortress. I don't know where it warps you to. I bet it's nothing interesting though.

I think someone already made a statement that FF doesn't warp to the ToG, but thanks for the consideration. Couldn't get anywhere on the TS (trial skips). My theory consists of using one of the Bokolins' swords, with the assistance of a bomb, to clip through one of the trial doors & then use the deku leaf to get behind the big door. No progress yet. I'm using a file where I already beat the game so I can't try the strategy on the big door itself. Can someone who hasn't passed the door test it? I need to figure out a way to wrong warp without needing fade-ins. Don't know when I'll get around to it though. ???

1.The current wrong warp is only to outside locations to my knowledge.
2.Trial Skip: Both of those items can be moved. You need an unmovable to clip.
3.The FF2 door has no fadeout.
4.There is no stone door until you visit Greatfish isle. Also, it is possible to dive with a hyoi pear.

About the hyoi pear, I know, but WW dive is a lot easier & more convenient. About the trial skip, could you be more specific when you say "both of those items can be moved. You need an unmovable to clip"? Thanks for the tips though. Not quite sure what to make of the WW speedrun though.

Yes it does.

EDIT:

I read wrong. Which door are you talking about? I know there is a fade-out at FF2 though.

Can you upload your trails skip theory to YouTube so I can help you?

Here's all that I got http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ux97jwKKneg. Hope you can find something. :)

Like I said in the video, it was a very good theory but it seems impossible.  :( I tried the same thing on boss doors to skip boss keys. I have another idea of how to skip the boss key in Earth Temple but it would make it impossible to get the Mirror Shield if we use it anyway.

@Marcus
Thanks for the subscription. Don't give up on it Marcus. If you give up on it then that will be one less person helping in the effort. I could really use your help on this. ;D
Your english is very good. Noticed you're from Sweden.
