Bug Dimitri's Office 0x X Pressses
Thanks for stopping by! This video is about completing the job Bug Dimitri's Office without using the X button to jump. This is a TAS; this was done using save-states, and the final product was made by splicing the successful attempts together to make for a seamless viewing experience.
If you’re not familiar with the XBC, watch this video: • Sly 2 - What is the X Button Challenge?
This video was made around two weeks after the first few videos, and there are a few key differences. In that time I started using a no motion blur patch ( • Sly 2 - No Motion Blur Patch ), I switched renderers from Software to Direct3D 12, and increased the in-game resolution slightly from PS2 Native to 1.25x Native.
To make these changes apparent I had to render my video in 720p, but it's not really 720p. But I've been looking to find a setup that will give me actual, in-game 720p resolution with minimal lag and I think I've found one, so XBC videos after Big House Brawl will have 720p resolution, and any other Sly 2 videos I happen to make beyond that will have that resolution. Thank you for bearing with my incompetence as an editor and my crappy PC specs!
For this job I first use the same strategy as Satellite Sabotage 0x X Presses ( • Satellite Sabotage 0x X Presses ) to launch Sly into the air to get onto the balcony.
Once I'm inside I use a trick that I'll go into more detail about in Episode 2. For now I'll say it's called Monkey Tossing and that it'll be used extensively throughout Episodes 2 and 3 . . .
Confused at all about the XBC or have any questions? Ask about it in the comments or DM me at mcfighter2000 on Discord.
You’ve reached the end. Thanks for reading, and have a blessed day! :D
