The Same Input Challenge's goal is collecting as many different stars from a single set of inputs as possible, while only varying the savestate for the TAS. The challenge was originally created by Sidney and inspired by this TAS that completed 4 2D Mario games with the same input file, with the goal of "making a .m64 that can collect two completely different stars with the same .m64, but different .st."

Rules

  • Must start from star select (if the level has one), pause exit (if a castle star), or on the first frame of level.
  • No leaving a level (including Bowser death)
  • In level warps are fine, as long as they do not exit the course (No DDD exit, Bowser death, TotWC death, etc.)
  • Only one star per save state, 100 coin stars/castle stars must be collected separately
  • Save states must be achievable without the use of hacks (No impossible RNG, impossible HOLP, etc.)
  • Stars must be yellow when collected
  • May not press the start button

Current Records

Three courses have had all 6 of their main stars done with a single input file and one has had all 7 stars collected so far. These courses are Wet-Dry World, Bob-omb Battlefield, Tall, Tall Mountain, and Whomp's Fortress.

  • The current BoB record is all 6 main stars in 2:24 by brqm[1]. The run uses star 1 for the first and sixth stars, star 2 for the second star, and star 3 for the third fourth and fifth stars. Differing level versions, cannon activation, and wing cap activation is used to desync the input file.
  • The current WF record is all 7 stars in 2:24 by brqm[2]. This run uses textboxes for timestop, different course versions, and different HOLP locations.
  • The current CCM record is all 6 main stars in 3:36 by brqm[3].
  • The current WDW record is all 6 main stars in 6:14 by Nim[4]. The run uses star 1 for all stars. Differing HOLP placements are used to desync the input file.
  • The current TTM record is all 6 main stars in 4:08 by Dabs[5]. The run uses star 1 for the first star and star 2 for the other five. Differing HOLP placements are used to desync the input file after the first star is collected.
