Nice stuff, especially at the bosses, I think I'm not too opposed to all teleports in the end. Questions: 1. Can't you stand right in front of the cancer boss using odd pixel positioning? 2. Can't you keep progressing left while still shooting at the parrot boss?

A silly mistake. Reuploaded. Addressing Hetfield90's request to set mem capacity above 1024, it's capped so for x86 systems, and can go eightfold for x64.

The way taseditor does it is this: if the green arrow is in greenzone, it won't pause there, otherwise it will. That way AnS worked around my problems by adding some real logic: if I'm editing, I need it to stop at the last frame after each edit, so that I could evaluate the outcome; and if I'm just watching, to evaluate the fashion, it won't pause there to not break the real-time pace.
This is what TAS Editor only does with middle-mouse, but not with pause button or hotkey. TAStudio does it with all three of them.

Fixed, not uploading yet.

My dad has known about my interest in the TAS/speedrun community for pretty much all the time I have been. He pretty much hates the community, he thinks it's a big joke basically, a huge waste of time and that "pretty much the entire world would not even care if the TASVideos community was shut down for some reason."

BTW, has he seen this? http://tasvideos.org/GamesDoneQuick.html Link to video Standing avations: Link to video As for the community... Being seriously involved into TASing concerns tons of different spheres of knowledge and skill, so it's a perfect means of personal evolution (also resulting in making more people happy with what we do).

1.) How can you justify TASing? Why is it okay for me to be TASing if it makes me happy? What good things are it really getting me? What's your philosophy behind that?

Here's a post incredibly overhyped by myself at the time when I was writing it, but I asked myself that exact question for so many times until the moment I came up with that post, that it might help a newbie understand our motivation behind TASing. See even some old school heroes have found time to post there. http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11977 Also, http://tasvideos.org/NewcomerCorner.html cover it a bit.

I made some important changes to autosave. Please test the new interim (in the OP) extensively while I'm doing other stuff. https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk/commit/559eacf95a03c6a66528c976aa1fa4a723700b99

Vault only allows any% (fastest by any cost) and 100% (full commpletion), which one of these was the previous run?

Removing the music saves lag frames in literally every game that exists on the planet. It’s probably something that would get lame really quickly if people started abusing it.

They won't if it isn't consider an optimality factor. Same as ending input early. Neither is more optimal, the author can choose.

VirtualBoy movies now require special encode steps. 0. Get the filters: - https://sourceforge.net/projects/feos-tas/files/Anaglyph.dll/download - put to avisynth plugins folder - http://www.pantarheon.org/AviSynth3DToolbox/ - zip or installer 1. Get the latest VBjin build: https://sourceforge.net/projects/feos-tas/files/VBjin_r103.7z/download 2. Record AVI for left and right screens separately: View -> Video Display -> Left/Right Only. Save them as R.avi and L.avi. 3. For downloadables, use the following code instead of regular AVISource:

Language: avisynth
left  = Greyscale(AVISource("L.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
right = Greyscale(AVISource("R.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
Anaglyph(left, right, "grey")
AudioDub(left)

4. For YouTube HD, you'll need to have 2 planes to use the yt3d filter, each with subtitles and logo. If you're not using bitmap font for subtitles (that allows them to look nice when upscaled), you'll have to encode both planes to HD first, then apply the yt3d, greyscale and levels to both of them on the second pass. Otherwise, make 2 encodes in SD and then use them for the second pass (make sure to disable logo and subs this time). The first pass requires a lossless codec. The second pass would be this:

Language: avisynth
left  = Greyscale(AVISource("1.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
right = Greyscale(AVISource("2.avi")).Levels(0, 1, 171, 0, 255)
yt3d(left, right)
AudioDub(left)

5. YT stream also needs this tag: yt3d:enable=true Note: you might want to change the subtitles color to $009D9D9D, so it matches the color scheme provided by the Levels() function. ~~EDIT: Thanks creaothceann.~~ Nope, it breaks the automation. Which can be seen here btw http://pastebin.com/5UpWkBm4

While music would really be better, and it shouldn't be a factor of optimality in such cases, I don't think it gets any close to "sickening camera angles, seizure inducing activity" in how badly it affects entertainment. I'd leave such decisions to the author, while generally preferring having music in such cases.

I'm trying to say that sometimes things are just interesting to know. For people involved in this thread that link might be interesting to know. It doesn't always have to be an argument about everything? Or it then entirely stops making any sense?

Все что выше сделано. Поправлю накопившиеся в тастудии баги и продолжу наконец гаргулиев. Так как я теперь свободен, надо будет побольше времени им уделить в этот раз.
