Wow! The improvements in this movie are brilliant ideas. The entertainment choices were amazing. Thank you for this movie, I very much enjoyed watching it.

Playback your movie. At the point where you want to resume, make a savestate. Set the emulator to read+write mode. Load the savestate you just made.
(Also, I moved your topic to the newcomer forum, since this is a great question to be answered for newcomers)

^what’s with the broken obsolation in that publication?
I think the idea is that it's outdated and the goal is out of step with the site's goals now, so it obsoletes itself to remove it from the list of currently published movies.
Well, that is exactly the thinking, it is obsolete without an obsoletor. So I was screwing around to see what the site would do if I set it to obsolete itself. Then I forgot to set it back <_<
As to why it is a moon, it is because it does not fit the Vault. But then again, it doesn't fit Moons either. It just doesn't fit in with the site rules of today, but there isn't a better designation than moon.

Guys, if you are copying 1.3 into the same folder as 1.2 that's why things are crashing. We moved around the dlls. Try a fresh folder.
I tried directly with 1.3 before trying 1.2
The prereqs didn't help was it for XP or 7, same crash.
As i'm on a 3g connection, i lost my morning downloading the whole thing :)
Restart your computer.

Disallowed for future runs because of incorrect emulation (Despite versions like 1.52 emulates better than BizHawk).
To anyone who reads this, this is flat out misinformation. BizHawk, like lsnes, uses the bsnes emulator as its SNES core. bsnes is light years ahead of any snes9x version in terms of accuracy.

Btw, the solution to both Spikestuff and feos' problems were to restart their computers. In case anyone else is experiencing problems with the new release.

I also support "Executes Arbitrary Code", which is rather modest, but that's good, because the shown result (the picture and music) is not as extremely mindblowing as it could be in theory. So, while I think this movie should get a Star, I wouldn't try to oversell it by calling with pathos-filled names like "Total Control" or Matrix-related stuff.
I agree with all of this; including the suggestion of it being a star

Now that ColecoVision games are TASable, I thought I'd start a wishlist for it.
When I was testing games in BizHawk I found these as possibly good for TASing
Montezuma's Revenge
Chuck Norris
Galaxian
Oil's Well
Q-bert II
Oil's Well is particularly interesting because it is some very unusual gameplay (and odd subject matter) and looks like solutions to the levels could be really surprising.

BizHawk 1.3.0 Released
This release features a new core: ColecoVision, as well as FDS support for NESHawk. In addition, NESHawk is now 20% faster!
There's a lot of other fixes, and features, so I recommend reading the
full release notes.
Windows binary

1) This should be in the bug report topic you have in the screenshot ;)
2) It is TAStudio causing the out of memory exception. It should be fixed in the next release. SNES savestates are quite large and make it run out of memory fast (it is only a 32bit exe so it runs out at about 2gig). The frames in your movie have exceeded the number of savestates TAStudio can handle, and in that release, it isn't smart enough to do anything about it. I hope to get out a release soon, in the meantime, you might want to TAS without that tool (which is probably not terribly helpful anyway right now)

Under the Data Type dropdown, check the "include mis-aligned" option, and you will ge the "in between" values that you want.
Note: It doesn't automatically refactor the current search, you will have to start a new search after changing this value.

I like that a lot more than any other suggestion so far!
Bizhawk's "Unknown ROM" icon is this, though it isn't animated. I don't know if that would cause confusion (not to a true newbie since they may not have even used an emulator)
If it is going to be a question block, I expect it would give me answers. As such it should link to a wiki page, not a pure movie listing. This page would of course have the movie listing but also a lot of information.
Maybe it should use the recommended movies as answers. Like "Often games manipulate luck, as as in this game xxxxx, not the author xxxxxxx" and then it shows the movie module.
