Enter in your closest Action Replay.
The Beam Saber can kill any boss in two swings so beating the game is not that hard.
Keep in mind that at doors it is best to hit start, change to X then enter door else the life bars gets mixed up.
How is this a challenge? Well, the buster i noticed charges faster, it is a bit slower then X in rapid speed.
Also jumping is slower, you can not jump up or in the air which makes it hard on bosses.
Getting hit sometimes makes you lose the charge shot.
Have fun.
Oh right, you might want a award:

Award - Complete the game as Zero.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v189/Werty2132/blackzero.gif)
Award - Complete the game as Zero using Buster only.
This is not a offical RPM award, just something you can put in your sig.
Actually, there is a point to picking up heart ups. because if you get them all, then it will get to the point where X's lifebar is the same height as Zero's, so it wont matter if you switch.
Makes me wish I had an action replay. Seriously, what was the point of having Zero in X3? Meh, this isn't the topic for that.
You realize you dont need an actual game for this right? Just take your copy of X3 for the Snes, and put it on the table. Then open up your X3 rom on Zsnes. (If you have an actual copy of X3 for the console, the rom is legally considered a backup copy.) Zsnes comes with an action replay built in.
My PC can't run emulators. Its all kinds of suck
If I ever bother to get emulators on my PC again, I might give this challenge a shot.

How can it not run a emu?
it must be 20 years old or something.
i've done this challenge myself on a few occasions. there's one issue that always came up when i played in ZSNES, though. when i go to enter the first set of shutters in Blizzard Bufallo, after the game "switches back to X," everything is permanently dark. don't know if this happens in Snes9x.
I see no problem with it.
Say, what happens if you die while you're doing that?
Quote from: Kieran on July 08, 2009, 08:41:16 PM
Say, what happens if you die while you're doing that?
It shows the cutscene of Zero telling X he's failed, etc, but it does it
every time you die
Yea, im trying NOT to make that happen...
So, who to beat next...
I really...really...really...suck at X3. With a fully upgraded X.
And I NEVER enjoy playing as Zero.
So I'm gonna skip this one.
o~O HUH? i'm already doing this? o~O
i'm going to start over for this
...or can i pick up where...
*looks at active snes9x cheats*
OWAITWHATHEFU- I HAD THE Z-SABER CHEAT ACTIVE?!?!?!?!
oh well... i'll start over cuz i cheated
HOT AND FRESH FROM THE HARD DRIVE!!!
i see the problem now. every time i entered that shutter before, i was changing from "X" to Zero. if you change to Zero before entering that shutter, the lights won't turn out.
Might as well. I wonder if it would be possible to code in X3 Zero to X1 or X2.

Which actually makes you invincible, when you think about it. because it will always send you to that cutscene, then back to the stage. so you essentially have infinite lives. Except in the intro stage, where you have none. 8D

The most annoying part was the AVI > MP4 converting.
The AVI had the sound desynced, so I had to record AGAIN!
That wasted a whole evening for me. Then the MP4 took another 3 hours.

If you keep holding down the button, you won't lose it.
It also depends on what point the charge is at.

With this "play as Zero" code, you can't pick up ANYTHING that isn't a Life Capsule. (no 1-Ups, no Life Ups, no Sub Tanks, no nuthin'. And the X Capsules won't open for you (Zero will just keep "humping" it) and the portal to VAVA/Vile doesn't let you teleport either.

It happened to me too. I use the most accurate emulator out there (Snes9x). I switched to X right before that scene would show up, and when you get closer and it switches to X again, things will run like normal. I think it's a emulator bug, because a special version of a SNES emulator might probably work better. ^^

I tested it on another run before. If you would die against the Godkarmachine, you will teleport to VAVA/Vile's secret hideout (or at least hear the stage music). >U<
Please enjoy watching the video run~ :3
*Vixy needs her beauty sleep nya~*
Yeah, I've seen some videos that this one dude played as Zero ONLY!! But seriously, I do wish I have an action play and can use a code to played as Zero for the whole time. T_T

A Zero Only run would be soooo easy. Any run with the Saber is easy!
AND I LOVE IT.
Well, how about no saber run then?

You should have read the rest of my post. pick them up to increase X;s lifebar wo that there is no difference between his and Zeros, thus it wont matter which you have. and you can pick up items. you un equip the code just so X can get the item, then put it back on.

Awww, you killed "Zero". >w<
I use Hyper Cam 2, works great!
Dunno what stuff Vixy uses. Prorably as a whole video editing studio.
Um... I only use Snes9x and Virtualdubmod. ^^
Nice playthrough, Vixy.
I should give this a shot sometime. Should be interesting to do.
Hm, people really liked this ,huh?
*thinks* Why can't Zero be playable in X1 and X2 for. D:
I don't know much of coding and hex stuff, but i know editing in new stuff into old stuff is easy.
So, would be possible to take Zero from X3 into X2 or X1? I mean, it can't be that hard?
Btw, didn't RPM have a Achivement list on the main page?
You could probably replace X with Zero with enough work, but I don't really see the point.
aside from a head and palette swap, which i think has already been done for X1, hacking Zero into X1 and X2 ain't going to happen.
Why not? Adding the sprites isn't that hard. The saber i can understand but the rest should be fine.
And come on! It's Zero! ...aight, i know no real point. I just tought it would be kinda nice.
It's not like we have the source code. Hacks are very different from making your own stuff.
haha. Yknow, I was fiddling around with the codes, and I decided to leave the head crystal code for the Nightmare Zero off, as it looks kinda cool when his headgem flashes when he charges up.
Posted on: July 11, 2009, 06:57:23
I can't record it, but someone help me to get this work on SNES9xTYL just because I'd actually have Zero be USEFUL FOR ONCE
Ive been trying to mess around with the code to try and make an Omega Zero color scheme, but all I get is blue... :C
I now how to calculate the colours, so if you wish I can give you the values from the game, than you can go ahead and change them. You must also search for the recent used colours, otherwise you can corrupt ROM permantly when you have no idea, where to start.
I dirrect you to this thread.
http://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php/topic,7454.msg116289.html#msg116289
Don´t forget, you will need a Hex Editor and a Emulator like VBA where you can find and watch the values, like they are shown in the Memory Viewer in form of palettes.
i've been trying on and off to beat the game using only Zero and only the Z Saber. i wanted to do it single segment, but i always [tornado fang] up along the way due to Zero's bigger hitbox.
The saber only thing, is it using the permacharge code or doing it legitimately (ie firing double shot into the air every time)?
first one. we're cheating anyway, right?
actually, it's completely permenant. if you hold the button after swinging, you charge up like normal. there are a few times where i would use that, like the boring climb up in Doppler 2.

It´s easy if you understand the values of binear.
01 =1 10000000=128 01000000=64
10 =2
11 =3
It all about 2*X-1 or 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2-1
128+64+32+16+8+4+2+1=255=FF= 11111111
Did you get it?
This is what we call 8-bit.
Honestly, I wold have to dedicate time to fully study the matter. Im not going to understand it just like that.
