I’d like to quickly point out that most of those broken encodes feos linked work just fine on mobile for some reason. But being played on a computer will definitely mess it up

I loved that part in the movie where characters would just shoot straight down through the ground. Yes vote.
Also I agree with Spike here, I would still like to know why gens is still being used. An no “gens is love, gens is life” excuse please.

Seeing how you next project isn’t until 2019 (judging from your signature), this just seems like an excuse to keep delaying your explanation. It’s kinda unfair to people here that you keep doing this. Do you even have a valid reason? If so, what’s the point of delaying it?

Encode has been added to the submission text.
I'll just say, what the heck did I watch?!?!?!?!
the game is like almost unrecognizable. the skips, the graphics bugs, the whatever. I am still struggling to figure out how it all happened. but it was entertaining none the less.
absolutely a yes vote from me.

Hi, I was wondering if you had an encode or a video you could provide for this run.
if not, I'd be happy to make one for you. I love this game so much.

What? Is that allowed? TASing a platform running under a emulator which in turn is running under another emulator even though there is a dedicated tas emulator for that platform already?
can you please read the rest of the thread to get more context into this?
to quote slamo's original post:
libTAS is a much friendlier alternative to TASing in JPC-rr, being able to run games at full speed, having an intuitive mouse interface, and the ability to easily edit past inputs. Some of these games didn't run at all in JPC-rr and are now TASable.
As for this method being acceptable for submissions, that is still under discussion. JPC-rr is an incredibly hard emulator to tas with. Not just because it's slow, but even at points just broken. Save States are weird, mouse traction isn't the best, and it requires a whole lot of patience. just because there's already an acceptable emulator doesn't mean we cant look for alternatives.
Edit: Also, libTAS isnt an emulator.

As someone who wants to keep a list of movies that were beaten by RTA (when comparing RTA times for movies), I would really appreciate a page like this. I think it will generally help for those who do want to see how the game compares to RTA and to make sure if they are wanting to obsolete an old run, that they can see if their tas at least beats the RTA record if the TAS is slower due to older tricks and the such.
Archanfel wrote:
As variant we can keep both timing in title, something like:
[TAS] NNN - any% by NNN in 18:05 (17:58 RTA).
But we have thousands TASes... so it will be enormous work to correctly measure all published TASes with RTA timing.
And also as mentioned abow by ais523 in some cases RTA timing methods vary among.
I also want to point out that not all games with movies have RTA runs for them. for example: [3700] A2600 Crazy Balloon by EZGames69 in 04:02.13
So we cant exactly reference the RTA rules for that game if those rules dont yet exist.

I have to say, despite this being a shovelware GBA title, it was surprisingly fun to watch. Barbie moves much faster than some of the other barbie games Ive seen. There were even some cool tricks here and there that kept up my interest when watching. I think for a first TAS, this is a pretty good one. Yes vote.

I can confirm sync on this movie.
I spent the entire day encoding this since some users aren’t able to watch the Nicovideo encode.
Also I was very entertained by the movie while encoding, so I’ll vote yes.

I am so glad to see a tas for this game, as soon as I saw that there was a move where you can teleport forward, I knew it would make for a funny tas. you did not disappoint.

I don't remember anymore if "all bosses" is defined in-game as an optional goal. If it isn't, and if beating all bosses is just an any% requirement imposed by the game, then we can only have this branch in Moons.
3 of the bosses are completely optional. You only need to defeat the bosses that have family members with them to open the final game stretch. But most players defeat the other bosses because they would give you more health, but you can still beat the game without them.
If every boss was required to beat the game (without the door clip that is), it would definitely not be vault worthy. But since not every one is, it can be defined as 100%.
