Do you mean the script closed and made a file in output with no video, or there just isn't a temp file for video yet, or there is a temp file, but it shows nothing?

I try to login to the encode server using a generated password but I get accessed denied. I need an encode account setup.
Oh right, that completely slipped my mind! Only encoders and publishers have the privileges of uploading to TVC
I'm sorry, I should have remembered that much sooner >.>

When I do the HD stream option, I don't get anything in the output folder!
In that case the encode didn't finish and you had an error somewhere along the way.
I doubt anything in encode.avs would be wrong considering you got the primary encode to finish, so my next guesses would be a. you don't have an hd logo or b. you don't have TASEncodingPackage2.
If a, you can either make an hd logo or comment out the line which looks for the hd logo and uncomment the one before:
creaothceann gave you bad advice. On a custom encode fraps *might* not be too bad
As a last resort of course, I'd rather have a Fraps dump than no video at all.
Hmm, maybe that should have been clarified earlier :/
I'm sorry if you took offense to me saying it's bad advice, btw. I couldn't think of any way to word it which would both have no chance of being taken offensively by you and get the message across as well to samlaptop

2016 HYPE!
Source? :o
I remember seeing biospark's strawpoll about doing 0:45 any% or 0% tas a couple months back, I think. Can't wait for the 0:40 barrier to be shattered ^.^

I got a final encode uploaded and have PMed link to feos. It's still processing.
Huh? At first I doubted you were going to end up doing the publication encode, but now that I know you are...
creaothceann gave you bad advice. On a custom encode fraps *might* not be too bad, but for publication encodes kkapture is the only choice for recording TASes on emulators with broken avi dumping.
Encoder Guidelines wrote:
Video must be captured using a recorder that will not skip or duplicate frames; our emulators normally provide this functionality natively. Most screen recorders and other external program (such as Camtasia or Fraps) are not acceptable because they do not know when the contents of the emulator window change and hence cannot capture all frames, nor can they slow down the capture in the event of an encoding or I/O stall. When an emulator has no internal capture or an extremely poor internal capture (such as PCSX or Mupen); .kkapture is allowed. It can throttle recording speeds correctly for slow CPUs and comes much closer to frame accuracy than most screen capture tools, but is still not allowed for systems that have working internal capture.
feos asked for the resolution, not the file type. You can check the resolution of mkv files by downloading matroska or something and checking the properties
And I hope the avi you used for the publication encode didn't have frame count, input, etc. on it like the temp encode did, because that would be a baaaaad mistake

Record the TAS as an input movie (as in not as a avi, wav, gif, etc). It's usually just called "record movie" in the emulator
Then do what scrimpy said ^

It works fine for me in Bizhawk and FCEUX.
It might be a keyboard issue. I've had similar problems with only being able to hold a limited number of keys at once before; I doubt you would have been holding too many keys every time you tried to use d+r, but that *could* be it
EDIT: Why are you so sure TASEditor :? My limit is 6 (idk if other keyboards have lower ones), and w/o 2 players that's plenty

If you can bring the weapon into a new save file, i.e. with new game+ or such, then you could make a verification file which unlocks that weapon and then start a TAS from SRAM

I think Kurabupengin was asking you to replace the GBA Dragon Ball screenshot, not the Power Rangers one, but accidentally said "your" instead of "my".
He said "your" because Spikestuff compressed the image further

I just need someone who knows the TASes well (it doesn't matter if the tricks are used in a current run or an old one).
marzojr is the best person to ask. He's made the vast majority of published s3k runs since 2009 :P
Besides him, Aglar doesn't visit the forums very often atm, and nitsuja and Upthorn disappeared a while ago
