You're basically saying that my opinion does not matter, and is interfering. I'm sorry, where the hell do I get the gall to think my opinion matters? Jesus fucking christ. I was under the opinion everyone's opinion matters, but I guess I was way out of left field, huh buddy?
The workbench may be worthless to a certain extent, especially for runs that have been improved multiple times. However, it has shown to have worth for runs that have questionable entertainment value as compared to the published movie, questionable technical improvements as opposed to what is known to be possible, and for games for which a run has never been done.
Obviously, some runs do not need that much review by people, so it is expected that they get published faster (I have given up any hope of getting things changed here), though.
Feel free to ignore the peanut gallery ;) I'll publish any run I feel is good enough (provided I can encode it).
It's called "evaluating and checking for potential mistakes."
:-D
EDIT: Sorry, forgot my sarcasm flags, I approve of this message as well, although I did not fund it. Paid for by the Democratic party.
but after about 50 tries, I cound not do it.
I'm doing SMB3. I only did SMW2 to test dehacked.cok because I've NEVER heard of it before. *hides under bed*
I compared some times, the boss for example, with Nibelung. I was surprised to see that I made the first hit 94 frames faster, but the second was 109 frames slower... Overall I managed to save 18 frames during the boss. But I still wonder what happened to all the frames after the first hit. I guess I'll have to redo. I'm looking forward to your come back Magnet :).
But I guess a lot of that comes from the method used to make the run (frame advance vs. 25% or lower), and the amount of dedication used to make the run. But in general, I would say yes, traditional RPGs take less time because there's usually less rerecords used.
I spend quite a large deal of time optimizing on Final Fantasy 2, so I completely disagree with what mmbossman said. I spend many hours for every boss fight. I'm currently at about 1hr 17 1/2min and have almost 86,000 rerecords
Would I be wrong to assume that turn-based RPGs take less time per minute?
Also, I used Gimmick! (J).nes and the checksum matched Deign's .fcm as well as the published movies. I think NVA may be incorrect in indicating it is a ad dump.
