Well, you still need to export it and run it under Windows. So it would just be a variation of Windows TASes I guess.
Eager to try stuff out on this. I'll get back to you.
Edit: Welp I have Windows 7........:/
To clarify, the title of the game is:
Star Wars: Return of the Jedi: Death Star Battle
This is not to be confused with "Star Wars: The Arcade Game" which also features a Death Star battle (against a more complete Death Star).
No, I use frame-advance! I just checked the speed of my running: on Mupen64's 10% speed I run faster than on Bizhawk's 12% speed, but on normal speed I run the same speed on both emulators! I just need to get accustomed!
If you're using frame advance, why would play back speed even matter? >.>
I have already tested bizhawk: it worse than mupen64, but without ram watch my game can't be totally TASed! How to find HP of an enemy? How many bites it is and what's its display? His health is 4000 for example, so his value should be 4000 or 00004000, right?
I'm trying to improve one run of the Nintendo 64, but without knowing how to watch the speed of the game it'll take a long time.
Is there any way to observe the memory addresses in Mupen64?
There is a version of Mupen64-rr with Lua support. I presume that could be used to watch memory addresses.
Can you give me a link on it?
Just use BizHawk, since that already has lua implemented. :P
I'm doubting that movies made with this mod would not be allowed on TASvideos though. The only problem would be recording to avi, though there's always Fraps
Sure it should obsolete the previous any% run, sure this is not enough and it's a good thing that someone is working on a 100% ! But in my opinion we should have a "deathless" category (which would mean no gravitron skip as well) that would show more of the game. It would be an intermediate category, such as "11-exit" SMW category or even "warpless" NSMB category.
Anyway, yes vote. This was awesome. Maybe you should edit the RTA timing in the submission, sounds inacurrate.
I thought the death was only used to skip the intro. How much more of the game would forgoing death but using the text storage show compared to this run?
I will concede that fairying through doors was probably unintentional but I won't call it a glitch. Just a weird thing that happens from every mechanic working as intended in unison.
Emergent behavior?
Also what's with the burger preview pic along with the semi-misleading "no glitch" name? :o
What fast-forward does (in a simplified explanation, because I myself don't know everything behind it yet) is that it ignores Sleep and SleepEx, and similar functions.
Is that what Cheat Engine do for their speedhack function as well? OR is it different for that program?
Um....

I've done the first round, but this game's "difficulty" (the amount of enemies needed to open the black hole) only increases once per 10,000 points. Should I do that? It would mean either killing the death star ~5 times or grind on enemies.
Edit: encode
Link to video
Edit2: It seems the green enemies give 3,000 points, but appears every ~2,000 frames. This can reduce the level increase to only 2 death star kills (while making me wonder if it's a pointless endeavor)
If bug reports in the thread aren't guaranteed to be read, why even have a thread? Shouldn't the thread be one post: "Please go to the issue tracker: <link>" and locked?
I agree. it seems some of the bugs posted here aren't even on bug tracker. :o
I'd like to TAS this games by myself, but I have lots of desyncs in the playback (using Dolphin 4.0):
TMNT 2003, 2007
Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance
The Incredible Hulk
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Melee: has desyncs with spawning enemies and gives random power-ups! On gamecube I didn't manage to pass even 3 stages! A PS2 TAS:

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow
Are you using HLE or LLE for dolphin? Also, have you tried the latest version?
A better example would've been either Superman or Myst imo.
Also the only thing I believe shouldn't be TAS'd are games that never end (nor have any definable place to loop) or fixed length games.
Here's another bug for the old Hourglass I remembered: Trying to bring up the menu in Bound Plus causes the game to freeze for a while then resume without bringing the menu. Also the title screen intro for said game goes by far too fast in Hourglass compared to the actual speed in game.
I think a pic of the player grabbing the coin case might work, since I think that item would never be used in a glitchless run. (unless I remember wrong)
