While TASing, I use the Debug Mode feature of Dolphin to be able to read the addresses of the game (such as horizontal speed, facing angle, vertical speed...), but it has a problem: you have to click on the address to refresh it every frame, and it's very annoying. But I noticed that some TASers managed to view the addresses values using the Show Statistics feature. How does it work?

You can use the external program Cheat Engine to watch values. In Cheat Engine, they wrote a lua script to edit the statistics to show the values they want.

Seems legit.

Oh I see. I've never got Cheat Engine to work with me, so I think I'll just continue using Debug Mode. Thanks for the reply anyway!
