Hey rog, can the latest Dolphin handle .dtms that are bigger than 115,423,150,265,087,935,975,729,091,546,140,000,000 frames long? Because thats how long I think it would take to get a superswim to underflow... if it's a float. If it's a double we are all fucked. And yes, I do realize that is 5 x 10^32 hours (More years than any of us are going to live).

TWW has Link standing in the intro screen, which is an actual map. After it sits for a while, it goes into a pre-rendered movie montage. There is a similar pre-rendered movie after you complete the game.
DK64 has an input file, and it desyncs when you load the game in widescreen mode.

JWinslow, if you want a TAS, make it yourself. That way you will improve your skills and you won't be begging people to put in work on something that probably won't be published (If I'm understanding the task correctly).

Put the enemies on max level, all items on, all of them on a team against you, and have it so they can hurt each other. Have the map as final destination, and only use RNG manipulation to make them kill each other. That would be 1/2 interesting.

That is the velocity of 1 axis, when the other axis is in insignificant number, around 1E-6. But I've improved my lua script to automatically get the full velocity, so I don't have to worry about that. First value is the "VI Count" (It's not accurate at all), 2nd and 3rd are the velocities on X and Y axis looking from an overhead view.
al=getAddressList()
vi=addresslist_getMemoryRecord(al,0) --get the first entry in the list
mr=addresslist_getMemoryRecord(al,1) --get the second entry in the list
mr2=addresslist_getMemoryRecord(al,2) --get the third entry in the list
lastValue=memoryrecord_getValue(mr)
lastValue2=memoryrecord_getValue(mr2)
lastVI=memoryrecord_getValue(vi)
print(math.sqrt(math.pow(lastValue,2)+math.pow(lastValue2,2)))
function readValueTimer(t)
local currentValue=memoryrecord_getValue(mr)
local currentValue2=memoryrecord_getValue(mr2)
local currentVI=memoryrecord_getValue(vi)
if currentValue ~= lastValue and tonumber(currentVI) ~= nil and tonumber(currentVI) < 20000 then --value changed
print(math.sqrt(math.pow(currentValue,2)+math.pow(currentValue2,2)))
lastVI=currentVI
lastValue=currentValue
lastValue2=currentValue2
end
end
t1=createTimer(nil)
timer_setInterval(t1,50) --check every 1/200th second if the value has changed
timer_onTimer(t1,readValueTimer)
To stop it:
object_destroy(t1)

I'm going to find out which frame of the swimming animation is the fastest. This is going to take a while.
Edit: NVM, it's not that drastic. Turns out the excel just sucks at showing graphs.

Edit: I'm an idiot, I was using the wrong type of graph in excel... But there still is some slight difference.

Double post for an update:
My computer has been broken for almost 2 weeks, I finally got it back today. I got a lua script to help me figure out superswims. 6166 frames of continual superswimming: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmVhHgQ1lALLdExsMTdrTDJTUnRpZFU1ajVHVGdTMFE#gid=0
I'm going to get back to TASing tmrw, right now I have to finish up this superswim to NFI, get the bag, take damage, and finish FF1 for the next segment. My reasoning for another short segment is so the one after can actually have new material and not have everyone just skip the beginning. I'm starting driving school, so I will have significantly less time to TAS for the next few weeks. I apologize for the delays with getting this done, just please bear with me. I'm still using a pretty crappy computer for this, hopefully I can start building my new computer soon.
Also, have some crap!

In general, these runs would be rejected on feedback alone. However, I believe that a decision is required on the minimum presses category in general. To not belabor this any longer, these types of runs just don't fit with the publications on the site.

I can almost guarentee you most people have heard of atleast one or two people that are in there, and many will get some of the jokes.

I found this movie entertaining, strong yes vote. There were some glitches and optimization tactics. Very nice.
The glitches in the run were the intended method. I just played through the game before watching this so yes vote.
I don't know anything about the game, but it looked very glitch-ey when he went under the sea kelp thing while inside what looked like the floor. Is that just some game mechanic that isn't used anywhere else?
That was a glitch, which was the intended method.

It's only faster for speech differences, so it should be rejected anyways. Wait, are we comparing humans to roms? Unless, we are all the exact same code, but our RNG got off creating drastically different outcomes.

How to use SRL: Go into the IRC from their website. Irc.speeddemosarchive.com #speedrunslive. Asking for help there shouldn't be too bad if you are respectful. But reading the FAQ is a good place to start.

A simple race belongs on SRL. If you would like to propose a competition, it belongs here

You just stole my signature
First of all, this thread is for people who want to challenge me on a non-assisted run of Donkey Kong NES, not for people who want to criticize me for "stealing their signature"!
Second of all, I could have said that I would "abuse death to see if it saves time", but, instead of directly copying, I said I would "save the wrong state", and I told of the result of it!
Everyone's tool-assisted life is different, Marx. Accept it.
This is going nowhere fast. Your signature sucks anyways.

God my eyes. Just wondering, but we're there any lag reduction strats? It seemed like spinning out of a jump stopped the lag from what I could tell.

Lol I also couldnt see this being accepted. It would of course make a good YouTube video. I could totally make this for GC Mario Party games.
