@@legoflashgamer are you using a laptop keyboard? Unfortunately some keyboards can only receive a maximum amount on inputs at once. forward, backwards, left/right, and spacebar makes 4 inputs at once. I wonder if your keyboard can't register them? The same happens on my laptop keyboard. It's very unfortunate!

N64 version is actually very similar to 2001 PC version. So while there are obviously still differences to 99 version, N64 version should (technically) be viable for speedrunning. Through my own TASing of the N64 version, I've noticed more input lag compared to PC version. Also, you should be able to super slide by pressing A+B+R simultaneously and turning.

I've played this game since I was a child, I still have my 1999 disc on my shelf in its original jewel case, and somehow I'm learning about mechanics I never even thought of before. I didn't even know this game had a weight system for the various chassis. I do remember using snap slides but never even thought of it as an actual mechanic, though the super warps are definitely something I've never seen before. Very informative video, I'm not a speedrunner at all but it's great to have a video that explains a lot of stuff about one of my most beloved games of all time.

@@thilordtachanka314 the short version is... More bricks = higher top speed and higher weight. You're slower out of warps. Less bricks = lower top speed and lower weight. You're faster out of warps. Check out my Desert Adventure Dragway upload from a month ago for a 1-brick vehicle. Watch how fast I come out of warps. On Rocket Racers track I use so many green boosts where I immediately reach top speed that it's faster than the advantage of coming out of warps quicker!

I remember playing this game a lot on the Nintendo 64 when I was in elementary school. To be poetic, I even decided to walk through the single player mode on the morning before my last day at high school. I finished the single player tournament within about 30 minutes. I didn't realize that I just speedran it. I also remember an odd bug in Knightmare-Athon where if you start a warp in the final section with the floating ship, the warp ends where you just started. I remember watching this bug in action while messing around in 2 player mode. I assume it's the ship causing it, but that's just me being a bit salty.

why not just....use the brick before picking the next one up to avoid contamination?
@vincentauronward347
Ай бұрын
@@vigigamehacker123 There are a couple of reasons. The example from the video is Knoghtmare-athon where you want to deliberately contaminate a red brick with a blue one. This is because NPCs will pick this up and immediately use the shield no matter who is around them where as they will not use the red brick unless someone drives in front of them. This means they would then drive into the green brick at.the start line with no power up in their inventory and not contaminate it like they would if they had the red brick. The second for example (Adventure Temple Trail) when you warp directly into a white brick to pick it up as you enter the warp animation. If you then drive into a blue or red brick as you exit warp then it means that you will be wasting the white brick that you deliberately picked up while entering warp. We do our best to avoid picking up these blue and red bricks as we leave warp but it can be extremely difficult at high speeds and requires a consistent setup to avoid doing so. Thanks for watching the video!
