Awesome tools Silas. That's gotta be a big help with all the randomness in this game. Good luck with the run.

My understanding of the rule against save-anchored movies is that there's no good way to verify that the initial save hasn't been hacked. By doing it like this, the beginning of the movie clearly shows where the save data came from, and by definition shows that it hasn't been hacked.

I'm running Klipsch 4.1's but more importantly than that, I'm just glad to hear that this project is coming along so well. :)

I'd personally love to see a 100% run, but can you keep it entertaining for the whole game? If you can do anything like the SMW all exit run it should be great.

It can be done, but it requires re-syncing the movies each time manually. It's not hard, just time consuming, and for right now I don't have enough to spare. Great job with the new WIP Erim.

Uhm, it would be a problem when submitting the run to get published. The rules are quite clear about not starting from a save. I've seen a number of movies that start by going into the options to change things, so its not a big deal, especially if it saves you time in the run.

The side by side movie is AMAZING! I'm seriously biting my nails while watching it. It has it's moments like at 42:50 where we both get in a battle at the exact same time. Watching myself fall behind on the very first battle when there is no reason to kills me though. :( I feel terrible watching myself fall farther and farther behind. For the first half hour we were practically synchronized but Erim was 6 seconds faster. It was so drawn out I can't stand it. And then Erim uses my cursor roulette thing way before I reach Dadaluma so I end up looking like the copycat. I'm at 54 minutes right now and I wish it would end. Erim is right behind me in the Imperial Camp but he has the other two scenarios done while I still have to do Locke's scenario afterward. That's ugly. But then again my side has it's moments too. Despite the fact that my run gets clobbered for the first 80 minutes I still somehow finish the scenarios two seconds earlier. 0_0 So for all those mistakes that I beat myself up over... it's okay? Watching Cyan talk to Kutan/Celes at 1:23 was beautiful. :) So now I love the movie again! Watching Kefka use poison on both Figaro brothers and then watching them both use their limit breaks at the same time was one heckofva moment. Karetaker, thank you so much for encoding this!
Glad you like it. Assuming I have time, I will try to keep the video updated as you two progress. Anyone mind if I keep it as a wmv for now? Any comments are welcome, and great job both of you... Its amazing that this game can go by so fast.

@DeHackEd: Isn't working = isn't downloading, or can't get the torrent?

For those who are interested, I encoded a side-by-side vid of Erim's & Catastrophe's latest WIP. I'm still deciding what format is the easiest for me to use to make these, but this one is wmv. If you need a player, Media Player Classic works great for me. File Info: Size: 328 MB Length: 2:19:07 http://files.filefront.com/FF3_Dual_0503wmv/;5047922;;/fileinfo.html
