Any%: N64 vs VC Notes

N64/VC Loading Zone and Pause Buffer Difference Notes

We won't account for lag (though area lag probably influenced the sct/tf loading zone timings), but safe to assume n64 loses between 1-2 mins for any% if making a rough guess

resource for cs/reset differences (now we do extra reset, so n64 saves another ~9s for a total of ~16s from cutscenes/resets): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZVqYjZ_Sms

Assuming approx. 67 loading zones in any%


nct/ff lz 100 times:

eng n64 = 409.06
eng vc = 372.61

(409.06-372.61)/100 = .3654
.3654*67 = 24.4818


sct/tf lz 100 times:

eng n64 = 515.85
eng vc = 447.64

(515.85-447.64)/100 = .6821
.6821*67 = 45.7007


13 pause buffers (clock tower/hms area):

eng n64 = 21
eng vc = 16.58

(21-16.58)/13 = .34
