Hello, this is my first topic, I have a doubt there will be a way to work "libTAS" on windows? (I know it works on Linux, but my PC does not support a Linux emulator), thanks in advance.

there is no way libTAS is ever coming to Windows. Hourglass is the only closest thing you can get to libTAS in windows and it’s a disaster.

Does this kind of emulator run Linux games on Windows 10 using Windows Subsystem for Linux 2 method of running the emulator on Windows?
Planned runs: Marble Madness (Arcade, Genesis J, GG/SMS) Proposed: Ecco the Dolphin (Genesis, GG/SMS, CD: regular, camera freeze) Ecco: The Tides of Time (Genesis, GG/SMS, CD; normal mode) Mario Kart DS (all cups, all missions) In progress: Grand Poo World 3 (all exits hard mode)

Yes, WSL2 works with libTAS, and is probably the best method for running libTAS on a Windows machine.

Does it require Linux GUI on WSL2? I think the WSL2 I tested doesn't have GUI.
