About the start menu , i have to change audio to stereo ... the reason is easy , if i watch a record with the all setup the emulator will freeze after 30~40sec.
i don't know why but if i set this option the emulator will not crash later.

Edit : what the hell is this... ok i'il explain.
In cheked the frame in my wip and on the exempl wip.
In my wip when the first stage start (at the end of the black screen) the frame count is around 1515 with frame advance and 1505 with 1% game speed.
In the ex:wip is 1495. so i can't understand how he win 10 frame at the start screen , i think you can't passe more quicky this menu.
Next this will come realy strange , i tested whith znes at the slowest speed and the stage start at 1423.. i can't understand why. If someone can explain . thanks.

Jump on the first frame available to land on the end-of-level-target. This way, you aren't using any extra forward momentum / time.
In some stage if i jump directly into the end mark , there a another animation and i will lost realy much time.
stage 1 and 2 re : edited.

But I watched one of the WIPs and wasn't really amazed; I had the impression that this game can be done much faster
I have this impression to. one of the bigest problem is the barel and another grabable things in the game , i have the press down the Y button for runing.
If i press it during a barel path the chars will auto grab hit , so i have to stop runing or jumping , yes i lost time here is boring.
I would rather see a run that doesn't make use of the in-level warps, because it's boring to see the player enter all these potentially interesting levels only to jump in a barrel and skip the whole level, over and over, especially since then it seems like you spend more time watching the level-complete animation and world-map movement than actual gameplay. (Besides that, this is by far my favorite DKC game - I'd like to see what's possible in it.)
Your right ineed , i wanted this realy ... But this won't be called a time run after.
And i don't think if a time based run will be accepted if i avoid warp portal.
Any reason why you're not using one of the "improved" versions of snes9x?
After 555 years of buton configuration for nothing on my game pad...(like the up direction configured eight time) forget this emulator in bottom of hell
I have re-started the run from zero , the first topic is edited.

Ok there is the wip , i used the normal snes9x 1.43 , so all special option (wip1 timing ect) must be off.
Next , i don't understand why but if open-read only is on the game will desych so is must be off.
About the video , the first two world is realy annoying to watch , is just warp > warp > berk...
And about the second zone of the third world , i know is not perfect i lost some frame at some time , but others stage is good (i think).

Yes thanks , i will relase the smv of the first two world soon , the first world is finished , i will try to finish the second this night and tomorow.
Edit : i got a realy good advancement in the run.
I re started the two first world , i think using warp for a time run is logic.
The run is done at 60% now.I will post a wip latter.

About the desych yes is annoying but i know where the game glitch and i can fix this.
The first world is finished , is not perfect but i like this a little.

[Edited by Bisqwit at 2006-09-06: Original thread title was "Donkey kong country 2 (Warpless , 4% (next will come soon)"]
Edited;
Well i have re started the run , first now i can use the improved version of snes (the matter is my gamepad , i changed it now is work well).
Next i will avoid all warp portal , someone said before is can prety borring to see speed runs with many warp in a game.
Next i will record at 6% speed so the run will take realy more time thats i have planned to do.
I will update wips here every 3 Stage , so with this i can have some opinion.
About emulator option.
- Wip1 is On
- Allow right/up is Off
- Volume envlope height is Off
- Fake mute desych workaround is On
- Scythe sample with sound cpu is On
Ok : i have seriously anaylsed gameplay and message above.
First of all i have watched many many time for complex anaylsis whith the roll>jump>roll>jump tech , yes ineed you gain more frame but... for the one who will watch the full run is can be quickly annoying to see the chars do this things every time. For me is important to have a good felling when i watch a run.
So i know... yes i will lost some frame but i think the video will be more pleasant to watch no ?.
What do you think about this , 1 / i have to use this tech but this will annoying for the watcher very quickly, 2 / i will d'ont use this tech but i will lost a little time and the watcher will don't be annoyed to quickly.
