The list of potential emulators hasn't been updated in nearly a year and a half, and I've done a little testing with it and it seems to work fine for me. I haven't been able to test out if it syncs or not, but I can't see why it wouldn't. (I can give WIPs for people to test it out on theirs). I'd kill to TAS the PS2.

The rerecording features should be ported to reasonably up-to-date version of PCSX2. The one I'm aware of is based on ANCIENT version.

Sync stability is much harder than it seems. There have been emulators that "seem" to sync but utterly fall apart if you try to push those by actually TASing.

Agreed to Ilari! And some games can cause glitches and run not enough fast! Take a look at this: Link to video Read the discription for more details!
TASing is like making a film: only the best takes are shown in the final movie.

Firstly: The glitches are mainly in the 2009 build of pcsx2-rr Use the 2010 version. Secondly: The emulator is not meant to be fast. It is based of your computer's graphics and processor (and other). Thirdly: The emulation is stable in playback! When you hit F12 on your keyboard to dump the video. DO NOT USE A SCREEN CAPTURING PROGRAM (I saw your mouse and closed the video ASAP). Edit: If you're going to mention a graphics problem it's due to the plugin itself. Crash Twinsanity has not been solved for graphics as an example. Edit 2: This was a mini test I did back in the day. Link to video I got 14fps average when creating this. Dumped it and it ran at 60fps. Also you can see there is a minor graphic issue to it too. Another Mini test was with Klonoa 2: Link to video On the 2009 version there is a programing glitch where something gets stuck on the ground and you cannot progress on. Average fps was about 8. Dumped it and it ran at 50fps (PAL GAME. PAL SPEED)

AAAr! Sure! Forgot about dumping! I used Fraps. You didn't read the discription, I used PCSX2 1.2.1 (last version) after rerecording PCSX2, but the game was glitching anyway!

Thanks for newer pcsx2.exe, but the game is still glitched!

No I did... that made me more pissed off so I didn't bring it up. Why? Because PCSX2 without rr is a normal emulator lacking TAS elements. Edit: You just have to be patient with 2 things. 1. The next Graphics + Version update which will fix this error. 2. The next rr Build.

Aarr... when was the last build? Everyone give links on pcsx2.exe of December, 2010 change and it is beta r2186. It's 2014 now. Are you sure that someone still works on rerecording?

Patience isn't going to help. There is NOBODY working on it. It is a dead project.
It's hard to look this good. My TAS projects

If it is a dead project, does that means that there will never going to be a PS2 TAS in this site???

The term 'never' doesn't exist in the TASing. He means that the project got dropped, and it will be for a while before anyone takes it again.

The reason the project got dropped was because sync-stability was far worse than Mupen. PCSX2 need more improvements as an emulator before it is worth attempting an RR-branch again.

Such improvements would likely need somebody implementing basic rerecording just to test that stuff.
