    This video was meant to be watched after having already seen the video explaining the Any% No Wrong Warp run. This is why a lot of the early stuff is glossed over. ua-cam.com/video/4WoMl-fEPtc/v-deo.html
    Explanation by KabAudio: pastebin.com/mPYVMA56
    Also, I forgot to mention OrangeExpo in the credits. He helped me figure out all the hammer bro stuff!

      People find these glitches by trying random shit, stick with the shit that results in crazy bullshit happening, and then try to find out WHAT part of the random shit causes the crazy bullshit, and WHY.
      For instance, people knew about clipping through walls since SMB1 released.
      Then, someone tried going down the pipe instead of up, while clipping through the pipe. They found out that crazy bullshit happens (Mario gets warped to Crazy Bullshitland).
      Old and popular games like this have been dissasembled to hell and back, so, using a debugger (reading memory addresses and stuff), people can find out what exactly causes the crazy bullshit to happen, and how they can exploit it.

      @@wariolandgoldpiramid The human programmer doesn't generally write assembly anymore, but that's still what the compiler turns it into because it's the only thing the processor is able to understand. So you can absolutely still do this kind of thing with modern games, and always will be until someone figures out how to make a CPU directly run high-level code without it being horrendously slow.

    I know you say that you got a lot of ideas from the Retro Game Mechanics video, but to be honest, your explanations are WAY more clear, and after watching this video, I actually now understand that other video. He glossed over some stuff that clearly required prior knowledge, while you assumed no prior knowledge and actually explained what was happening and why. One good example is the stack underflow, which he didn't even refer to by name - he just said that the stack checks a new address without explaining why it looped around, like we're expected to already know that the stack would do that. You actually explained what it was and why it happened, so when I went back to that video, it actually made sense this time.
    You are free to re-do every damn video on that channel if you're going to have better, clearer explanations!
