Thank you, I try to learn these abreviations
But another question that refers to this thread: Did anyone of you find other secret rooms than those which appear in
this and the following 3 videos?
I found approximately 70 % of the secret rooms, which has found the uploader, on my own...

You can check
here to compare with the video, if you like. These were all discovered back in 2003 and we've yet to find any more since.

@Raytype: Ah, I've got the strange feeling you'd beat me
It's unbelievable that I yesterday got my English-Test back with the consequence 1
Well, I will try to finish this kinda stupid SBTC.
And, BTW, when you post your scores we can give you tipps and tricks ( if you want, that's no force)

I can now get 20 gems in combo before the first hoodblaster, like in MandM's video

I don't think I will try to do it mostwanted's way (22 gems), for it seems much more tricky. I hope I'll be able to master this combo soon anyway ^^ Thank you guys for your help!

Once you get beyond this massive combo, the rest of part 1 is fairly straightforward providing the Hecklers are killed in the correct way. There are a few other combos such as the Hoodstormer combo towards the end, but that's not so hard to achieve. If you're going for the maximum score in TTOTL, I'd suggest aiming for 55000-56000 points at the end. Remember that you will have to play a good game to get this score though

I can only agree what Xenon said.
And really: When you mastered Part 1 you had managed the most horrible in this world, and the combos after the first aren't so bad more.
I wish you good luck!

23628 points! It was almost perfect, except that I missed one yellow gem and thus collected only 19 before the first hoodblaster. Of course, the score on PC isn't as good as on the other platforms, because of the lums glitch. It's incredible how useful getting three red lums instead of one would be, but well, I don't mind as long as I can still get the maximum score.

Did you already finished Part 1 or not? Anyways, congratulations, it's a fair score
By the way, for myself, don't ask me how I'm feeling, I'm very disappointed. Well, you might would say: Why didn't he got more, but ya all know, SBTC is my favourite hate-level.

I seldom got a Lums glitch there. Whether the score is above or below 24000 depends on the gems and converting all the Lums.
@mostwanted: Will you go for a higher score or settle with that?

I finished this level. I'm playin again, because 104.500 aren't that, I aimed for, but I think it's not the worst score and I settled for that.

Mostwanted: It's still a good score for this level. Did you get the green gem without the edge, or what? What is your score before you start the big combo at the Hoodlock?
Hunchman: You have enough points from the first combo to reach the recommended score in this part. I'm playing TOTL part 1 at the moment for fun as I often need some rest from BOM part 5. I find the most difficult combo to be the box combo. I'm not at all happy with jumping those boxes.

Phew, yeah, you're right, I only was thinkin' over whether I shouldn't use the edge, and then I decided to let the jump with the edge.
I can only tell you the score before the yellow gems, it was something like 98.000.

Ok, but when you aim for the edge and the green gem both in the same combo, how many points do you have just before the Hoodlock?

Sorry, I didn't understand your question. I didn't use the edge, I did it without edge.

There are two ways to combo the green gem. One way is to get it for 4.500 points in combo, which is what you did. For this combo you will need around 98.000 points before the five yellow gems, as you said.
The other combo, which includes the Hoodlock, the gems and the launching glitch, will give you the green gem for 7.500 points in combo. How many points do you usually have before starting this combo?
Anyway, what level will you play next?

@ mostwanted: Are you crazy?? You had such an awesome score up to part 3, but you sort of wasted it at the end!

On the other hand, I can understand your frustration because the green gem combo looks darn hard. Your SBTC score is now higher than mine, but only by about 4000 points.
I wonder too, which level will you be playing next?

Hehe, I was expecting your reactions.
Well, how you said, you have to see this on two sides: On the one of course it's damn bad for such a good score after Part 2, but I didn't see another possibility. Ya know, I spend a lot of frustating days by this, and when I got 104.226, it was like a panic reaction, I was first happy to reach an acceptable score.
@MandM: I had something like 97.200, for sure.
@Xenon: Yeah, my total score is higher than yours now, I WILL RULE THE WORLD (just kidding

)
I may play SBTC again, and I decided, when I don't play SBTC, I won't play BOM, because I don't want to have another horrible level. I will play LS and try to get 43.000 there. The Shoe Combo with the Matuvu will be extremely hard, but practise makes perfect.

Sort of. I played the whole level relaxed to get familiar with the new combos, and I almost got 97000 points, which is 23000 more points than my former score. I'm in part 1 again now, and I'm wondering how you can jump the boxes without touching the gems... especially if you have to be quick enough to kill the first hoodstormer with the lockjaw (which usually runs out near the entrance of the large room for me). The following combos don't seem to hard, except for the one with the last hoodstormer, I just can't figure out how to kill it so quickly.

If I hadn't lost my combo after the very first gem, I would have had 200 more points, and maybe another 200 depending on the order of hoodlums and black lums. I suppose it would have accounted for about 24000.

Frustrated, I finished the 5th part of TBOM now, only with a simple Razoff glitch. It means that I will have to replay TBOM one day but I just didn't have the patience to try again and again. The next step will be to learn the trick in part 6 and then play a decent final part. That way I should still be able to get a score of 95500+, which is my goal now.

@ Hunchman: I believe I made a video of the Hoodstormer combo, and it's not too difficult. You can lock-on and kill the Hoodstormer in under a second if you're quick enough, so this means you'll still have at least one second spare. What I find hard about this combo is flying to the secret room in time as there really is little time to do this.
By the way, you can dodge the gems on the boxes by avoiding the boxes altogether, just go through the red acid. Unlike normal circumstances, each time Rayman touches the acid he'll only lose a certain amount, and if you've got enough health you can get through this whole room without touching any boxes.
@ sfn: I challenge you to get more than my score, 95571

How many points do you have after part 5?
