Super Mario 64 - legendary TAS community autism

Pannenkoek is so severely autistic, he collects and names his mechanical pencils, giving them personalities and everything. (reddit)

Not surprising considering he spent 12 hours building up speed in Mario 64, among other things.

It's like Mario and Sonic both had equal amounts of autism, but Sonic distributed its autism equally across its fanbase while Pannenkoek took 95% of the autism of the entire Mario fanbase
 
So there's this thing "Libsm64" that has the framework to adds Super Mario 64's Mario into other games, now I don't all the ins and outs but I know that it's severely autistic but that's already pretty self-explanatory.


It makes the bass player character invisible and replaces them with Mario and all the collision and powers with it.

You need a ROM of Mario 64 to play it with it having non of the textures or sounds of the game on it's own, this is pretty common practice for Nintendo stuff but even still I don't think it really does anything but I'm not a law guy so whatever.

Now it's currently in Garry's Mod, Rocket League and Sonic Generations as of my knowing, Rocket League is probably the funniest out of them all with just how ridiculously complicated it is.


Garry's mod on the other hand is just kind a there, it's very buggy and is prone to break a lot of the time.|

Now to be fair Gmod has never been the most polished game out there and addons can very commonly get corrupted or conflict with each other but even still by the creators' word, there are severe problems with the add-on.

To give a little more detail on the stuttering thing, the model very often becomes distorted when said stutters happen with the proportion being all out of whack, it's on brand for Gmod but still very annoying.

This addon just gives off the vibe that it was made by someone with very little experience in this field and just very simply put the framework into Garry's Mod with his past stuff being mainly emulation stuff.

It's pretty clear why he decided to port Mario 64 into Gmod but even still it's pretty hard to put a whole another game mode into Garry's Mod.

One of the best examples I've seen coincidentally is King David's [wOS] Super Mario 64 addon.

It doesn't have extra features like the Wing or Metal Caps but it has a lot more effort put into it with real collision and also lets you play as Super Fat Albert 64.

The biggest problems it had was that you can't swim underwater but it was still a very impressive and promising project with it being build from the ground up, sucks that it's said that it's cancelled or won't get any more updates.

It was 100 times easier to download but you just having to subscribe for the addon and not having to do any gay bullshit to get it working, sucks that all it took for this project to be declared as departed is someone putting a framework into the game.

I guess that warrants a little tiny bit of explanation, the mod doesn't come with player models on it's own and will just use your playermodel I've seen this done before with a kind of shitty Modern Sonic addon as well.

Either way this is somewhat similar to Libsm64 in that way but it doesn't do it to avoid copyright or anything because the add-on still has Mario sounds in it, it's just so you can play with your favorite Super Mario playermodel.

And on the topic of that, Garry's mod might be one of the worse places to do that whole "you need a copy of Mario 64 to get the sounds" because obviously the addons that the mod will be paired up with are going to be Mario ones that don't do that protective maneuver.

This is a problem that ROM hacks and anything else that does this have but it's a lot more noticeable because the entire point of Garry's Mod is it's Workshop so doing this move will obviously make people confused and answers to said unavoidable confusion will be bitchy and defensive when this move was really only came from the creator of the Libsm64.

Anyways that's really all I have to say about the Libsm64 addon for Garry's Mod, I'll to make these last two parts a lot quicker.

And on that note, I brought up how there was a Sonic Generations mod as well and god damn is it just the worst.

In a similar way to the Garry's Mod addon and probably the Rocket League one as well, the frame work was basically just shoved up the ass of Sonic Generations so because of that it is a nightmare to play the game as Mario and one has to either abuse the Wing Cap ability or do retarded speedrunner maneuvers.

Here's a showcase of the mod along with two other Mario mods, the Super Mario Generations mod and World 1-1 mod.

And while playing on a Mario map it's still a absolute struggle to get reach the end of the level.


And I guess this has created a whole new speedrunning category for Sonic Generations or something, I don't know if this will stick around or just fade away but it's there.

Anyways the last thing I have to bring up is how before all of this even started, there was a Minecraft mod that did the same thing but was specifically made for the game and wasn't using the frame work.

This project might have been the epidermis for Libsm64 but from what I've seen it's significantly better than the other projects that were made using the framework.

It doesn't seem to have the problems of something like G64 with it's slowdown and collision problems while also not being in game that doesn't mesh well with Mario 64 like Sonic Generations.

That's not to say it doesn't have problems but from what I've seen, it looks like it put a lot more effort into it than just putting the basic framework of Mario 64 into a game.

And also has custom skin support for both 3D models and Minecraft skins which kind of reminds me of the days of old of the CustomSteve Mod and that one Minecraft 64 DS mod video.

And the final thing I could say about this mod is that the creator is adding Mario 64 enemies into it which is pretty neat and something I don't see any of the other projects listed here going to do, even if it would be cool to see in Gmod.

Alright boys.


7 years, and he came back with another commentary.

Hope it's worth the wait.
The chat was pretty based at first with ">she" and "41%" and "YWNBAW" but it looks like some people got promoted to janny (like someone named Skazzy) and now that stuff is getting clamped down on. "Trans rights" are showing up in superchats too.

Edit: /v/ thread about the premiere.

Edit 2: Premiere is over now so here's an archive of the /v/ thread during its length.

Review time:

Less entertaining, way more useless explaining (like a whole lot of time spent on re-explaining)
It took 39,5 days in a corner, so 12 hours corner-Mario BTFO

It did have some production value:

Didn't know he was a tranny, though this much autism makes my stereotype module overheat.

Pannen isn't a tranny. Though I believe the console verification guy (rcombs) is a tranny. There's a lot of trannies in the SM64 community.

I was a bit disappointed when SM64Plus didn't build on my system (there are a number of other Super Mario 64 ports, but Plus had more QoL upgrades and improvements). Either way I had already beaten the game by that time.

I really like Mario 64...it really is a great game even if it can get frustrating at times...and all the autism and zoomer memes don't cloud that fact.

Now I just need Stryder7x and Fitsthistlewits to come back.
Man, what the hell happened to Stryder? I tried figuring out if something had happened to him a while back, but it seemed like it was a bunch of speculation about him being in some crazy relationship or his ex claiming he was abusive, but I didn't see anything solid. He's apparently still got 18 patrons on Patreon, still on a monthly charge, but it's been 3 years without a video.

He's still around I think, just not really active on the 'Net ever since the supposed "scandal."

The last time he's ever publicly had a hand in Paper Mario content was when he was helping Chuggaaconroy with facts and trivia when he was Re-Let's Playing the game.
Or... at least I'm almost certain he's had a hand with helping him. He's never credited but at the beginning of this series, Chuggaa had accredited this 1 individual who is quote "a friend who asked to go uncredited."

Considering they have collabed before on each other's channels and Stryder giving some help to Chuggaa during his Partner's in Time let's play, I think it's almost certain that Stryder has been helping him under the covers and still chooses to not come out; for some reason as like you've said, this "scandal" really didn't seem to be 100% damning and from what I remember, it seems like his ex was trying to #MeToo him and the community as a whole wasn't really buying it. Why he still hasn't come out of hiding when the dust has probably settled at this point I really don't know why.

Why can’t you just run the precompiled version?
 
I got to watch the floating point pendulum video during the live premiere by sheer luck

I have never seen a more autistically revered game before, Mario 64 was great for it's time, yes. But holy shit what is it about this and Smash Bros Melee that degenerates devote their lives around them
I've always assumed that a lot of autistic kids got an N64 and Mario 64 for Christmas that year following their parents getting divorced or something like that, and thus probably grew some weird emotional attachment to it.

Maybe something similar with Melee and 9/11 being so close together?

That camera is the jerkiest fucking thing I've ever seen but I'd still play around in that Pokemon Gold thing.
