    Late Merry Christmas everyone. I'll try and make my next video about spawning in vehicles wherever and whenever you want mainly so I can publicly release the code. There is quite a bit to say on just that topic alone so the video could take until summer, but I hope it isn't another year and a half long gap again.
    Also apologies for the lag towards the end of the video. Didn't realize until it was uploaded.

    Absolute peak video! Presentation is is top notch and the writing is fantastic! I've been speed running assault for about a year now and been playing it casually since it first released so I cant wait to see what other videos you'll make in the future on it! Oh and thank you for attaching all the gecko codes and tools used for this video in the description, cant way to play around with assaults damage values!
    you've got yourself a new sub modsault! Keep up the amazing work!

    Glad to see another video from you! You did some great research with this, and I never really knew a lot about the technical stuff behind the game, so this definitely was an interesting watch for me. Thank you for this great video!

    You're talking about the radar jammers and here I am wanting what kind of mods you used to make the plasma cannon and multiplayer weapons usable in all the ground levels.

    • @modsault6330
      @modsault6330  18 днів тому +1

      Its quite simple. All you need to do is tell the game you have ammo for the plasma cannon and then you can switch to it. I can provide you a code to use it. It'll work in all single player missions, even if the model for the weapon doesn't appear. However, in VS mode, the information for the type of projectile it shoots doesn't exist and it'll act incorrectly there.

    KOol but you need a better mic set up, seems like there's echo

      You're definitely not wrong, the quality isn't fantastic. For context it was recorded on my laptop mic (which was my best option) in these small study rooms my college has in the library. With an exception being the outro part of the video which was recorded in a larger room. For my next video I'll try recording it in an empty classroom instead.

    do people actually score run this game though? seems way too janky even if that line of code wans't missing, since I doubt a game without a timer like this doens't have more degenerate strategies
    if so, someone should just add that line back in for a modded version to be accepted in the leaderboards, seems possible given your gecko stuff

    • @modsault6330
      @modsault6330  18 днів тому

      There are people who do score runs of the game. I don't actively keep track of them but there are websites that have people's high scores on them.
      As for a timer, the game does have one. I briefly mentioned it towards the beginning of the video but every kill gives you 3 more seconds before the combo resets to 0. The maximum time you can have between a kill is 20 seconds. There are still "degenerate" strategies. Specifically in missions 3 and 6 certain enemies infinitely respawn and some people have just waited out their spawns until getting the highest possible score and I'm not too fond of it myself. Otherwise the strategies are fairly legit and there is a big difference between good and bad players.
      As for adding the if statement back in, you're right, I can easily add it in with Gecko Codes. However weather or not people will even want to use it or want a separate leaderboard for it is up to the community. I haven't seen anyone who does high score runs of the game say anything negative about it, and there wasn't a push to get rid of it (as far as I know at least), so it doesn't seem like that will be happening anytime soon. But if something happens down the line the community can add new rules or require the mod depending on their decision.
      If you yourself are not happy about it, keep in mind it took 19 years before I discovered this by accident. I documented it first on a speedrun.com forum about a year ago now. So if you look for high score runs before that time you can avoid this exploit.

    What exactly is all this? I am Spanish and I don't understand much.

    • @modsault6330
      @modsault6330  20 днів тому +1

      In Star Fox Assault there is a specific enemy that requires you to use a certain weapon to kill it. However, the game doesn't actually need you to use the weapon and it leads to a glitch in the game. This video just explores that glitch and how it can be used in gameplay.

      What I'm talking about is what this specific channel is doing with the Star Fox Assault game. do you make mods?

    • @modsault6330
      @modsault6330  18 днів тому

      @@aarongeme1647 This channel is mainly created to document my discoveries in Star Fox Assault as I've been modding it for quite some time and found some interesting things. That may include something like this where I talk about a bug in the game. I may also talk about what happens if we hack in items/features we can't normally have and explain how the game reacts. Mods specifically will be something I mention when I make them. They are still a far ways out, but given enough time I'm sure I could release something. So if you're interested in things Star Fox Assault related I will post that content.
