This Fairy Glade 100% IL is a really interesting one, because it would be technically infeasible without the glitch that allows for early access to the Echoing Caves. Well done Darnok.

And the series continues. It's good to see the F8 slowdown technique you described earlier used twice in the Canopy.

Very good run from Payman, I compared the segments with Darnok_PL's run in the previous post and it's even faster! Of course, the time is longer because you can't skip custscenes on N64...

Heh, we will see. I didn't play those 100% ILs as those are exactly the same as segments in my Any% run.

You mean the full run right? Because I saw no entries from you for Any% ILs of the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava and the Top of the World.

Yes, I've meant a full-game Any% run - many of the levels are played with all lums, because I need them - therefore I didn't feel like replaying the same levels as 100% ILs.

Could you not submit those sections as ILs?

Hmm, as long they do not take any advantage from being played in a full-game run (like having golden fist), they should be fine. However, segments in my full-game do not have to be perfect - like they would in an IL run.

That's a pretty impressive time, but the missing 1:34 to beat Darnok_PL's record won't be easy to find.
