It's about time I covered a game crash in Paper Mario: The ThousandYear Door! This was found April 2, 2017, and was figured out even more recently. Turns out the game retrieves information from the previous NPC interaction to determine when to play Mario's greeting animations. This normally works just fine, but there's a certain cutscene in Petalburg that is flawed. A game crash can be performed without doing any other glitches, as explained by the stepbystep address process covered in the video.
I should mention, for the Hazard Respawn Glitch, it technically takes 2 frames to update the pointer, meaning Mario has to jump the first possible frame, before this happens. Was not sure if that was made clear in the explanation.
