I can understand if your happy smile went to a really sad face. I own this game and have completed it serveral times, so I KNOW your feelings and how hard the game accually are.
Would be really fun to see that secret lvl sometime :) Even tho that means collect all dolls.
Nice game, lots of fun, nice played.

OMG FRENOM WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SUBMIT???? Don't break my heart and say its not what I hope it is.
And YEah, just submit it, if the submission text isn't perfect first time I'm sure you can edit it later while people are going crazy and voting? :P
Hehe
Sadly to say TNSe but it isnt PSIV.
To many errors when lvling and stuff like that. So everything has to be "re done" from scratch. Its a big project and.. when irl is booring I might pick it up again :) you never know.
But atm its just a small Tasie :)
And thanks Dehacked for the quick answer.. but I think Ill take a look at it tomorrow.... or later today.
When I clicked on the TextFormattingRules everything disapered that I had wrote, should be known better and open it in a new window. :)

Seriously... whats wrong with it?
Ive been trying to get my "Comments and explanations" when uploading a submission to look what I want for like +1h now, without success ofc.
When I write something, lets say
Test.
Test.
Test.
it become like..
Test. Test. Test.
I Tried to read the TextFormattingRules but I still dont get it. Why complicate things? :P
If I wanna write as I wrote first I have to add %%% in the end.
Now that I get... But If I want to add some space like this.
Test
Test
Test
I tried the "*" thingie in the beginning and with the %%% in the end... but it ended up like this.
*Emulator used:
Aims for fastest time.
Takes no damage.
Use warps.
Sorry but I dont get it.
Sure I can write like I want like Im doing right here.. but it still gonna end up in a long row... and thats kinda hard and a pain in the *** to read, right. And you guys will probably complain about it ;)
Anyone wanna help me so I understand abit better? :(
And sorry again if this isnt the place to write this thingie.. dont know better ;)
And yes, I know that Im stupid :P

As one of the few board members old enough to remember when Street Fighter II was a new arcade game, I have to admit that at first, none of us knew how to do any moves. This was during the dark ages of arcade information, where there were no FAQs unless someone wrote an article in a magazine. And something like that wouldn't show up for months after the game came out!
Oh yeah.. I do remember when Street Fighters came out on the arcades.
The graphics, the animation... just... wow..
At that time I was still in 7th grade or something.. and I cant even remember how much cions I spent on it.
Anyhow.. I liked almost everyone. But I think Ken or Blanka was my favorite character. :)

Just watched you run and... WOW... you... you manage to get out from the bomb-dudes room without fighting it(haha always forgets his name).
Always thought it was only doneable with the european version. Nice going. :)
Some errors here and there.. but hey.. look at my last(or first, lol) submission, you gonna have a nice time laughing. ;)
Both Hero of the days run and your run are really nice runs. I like them both.
But you showed atleast me something that I have never seen with the U/J version.
I really like this new guy.
Super Metroid as a first submission.. hard game and your aiming high.. and what a movie afterwards.. geesh..
Contratulations and welcome in the family:) yes vote.
and thanks for mention me in your submission.. ;)

This happens quite often to me.
When you record a movie and try to load another movie the whole emulator shutdown/crash/quits. =/
I can't reproduce this myself. Can you give a list of steps which always crashes the emulator?
Sure, no problem.
You load a rom(lets say Psycho Fox) and then playback a movie. Now.. go to playback again and try to open the same movie or another movie. I know I cant ;)
I get to the load movie window and then it dies.

Love to see more of it.
I have always played this game with Lecarde, so its alittle odd to see this game with the "whipguy" rather with the "spearDUDE", not guy... or else I'll will get Truncated on my neck for saying that ;)
Nice going there, continue :)

Whooohoo.. :) Hows it going for you Twisted Eye?

What are people using for key assignments? I'd like to know so I can provide sensible defaults for the keys that I haven't assigned a mapping for. These will go into the final version (1.14).
Also has anyone played with the python interface so far?
Hi there.
Man, you work fast with this.. and I like it.
Thanks for fixing the size, bugged me alittle tbh.
Havnt tested the Python yet tho. But I can give you my default key sett-up that I have on the emulators I use.
A = A
B= S
START = Enter
Frame adv: Space
State save: W
State load: E
Fast forward: §

Nice work Pcc. :) Love it.
Got another feature that makes stuff easier, ROM history and is it possible for the emulator to remember what options you had last time you ran it, like Show frame counter and key pressings or if you can add Hotkey mappings for them so you can easily put them on and off by pressing a key. :)
Thanks :D

I just started over on the newest version dega and beat the mummy dragon boss. Grab the movie Here. I improved a few minor things and I got the exact amount of coins I needed instead of getting extra that I won't need. One thing I know for sure is that the boomerang(s) is essential for a TAS if want to kill things while still moving.
Also taking damage is a no no as it just slows you down. It seems to only be useful so far for getting knocked up which seems only useful in the falling block platform part in the intro stage.
Just watched this run. It syncs correctly for me, but I have a couple of questions about possible time savers
1) I'm pretty sure I defeated the mummy dragon faster, in real time, on my first (successful) try. The trick is to get arrows (an attack spell that flies straight up) so you can hit him when he's too high for you to jump and hit him. I believe they also do more than 4 damage each.
I know that the drops in this game can be manipulated, have you tried seeing if you can make them drop arrows?
Also, wouldn't it be faster to collect some of the gold you need from enemy drops, instead of waiting for all that time after defeating the Mekadragon?
Well.. collecting the coins from the enemies takes alot of time. That means that you have to stop and wait for the coin to appers and to start to fell down before you can reach it.
The arrows is accually a great idea since they go straight up and can hit stuff that you normally cant reach. =] but the manipulation in this game sucks really hard. Its hard to get what you want :)

Hello! If anyone is thinking of doing this on the new SMS Rerecording emulator, I think this is a good route. After watching OgreSlayeR's TAS and #endgame's single-segment speedrun, i've kinda mashed the two together:
Mecha Dragon
Get key by the pirate ship.
Buy Mithril Armor/Sword.
Go through desert, beat Mummy Dragon
Buy Shogun Lamellar/Blade
Go through jungle, beat Zombie Dragon
Get key from red ghost below castle.
Glitch to Ruined Castle, get Legendary Armor/Sword
Go though lava region, get Thunder Sabre
Transform to Mouse-man
Go to underground cave, get Magical Sabre
Go through cave, get Tasmanian Sword
Transform to Hawk-man, go back to village
Go to Vampire Dragon's world, beat the game.
After you have getting the legendary stuff... sword/shield/armor. Is there any point getting the other swords except the Magical Sabre??
And for Shields and Armors.. Since we probably wont take any damage. Is there any use to even buy the Mithril Armor/Shield except the armor at the lava so you can walk in it(atleast I think it was the armor)? :)
EDIT: Nvm that with the mithril armor. Saw that you had to buy the armor to get the sword to appear =)
