I'll be showing off N64 console TASs at the Austin Maker Faire on May 3rd, if anyone in the area is interested. Probably just Mario64 unless I can get Smash Bros and Mischief Makers running. I'll do what I can to promote and provide information about TASVideos while I'm there. http://austinmakerfaire.com/
:0 Seems interesting. What time of the day?

Do you mean you are working on a TAS and you want someone else as a team? My Mario Tennis: Power Tour TAS is on hold so I would be interested. I have not actually completed the whole game before if that is an issue (I have however played the game of course). But I would still be very interested in optimizing a TAS with you.

Are there any test roms? I would like to see that as I have always wondered the accuracy of some GBA emulators (like VBA-M, no$GBA, higan, etc.). Even just a few test roms could make a start for an accuracy test page.

I just bought my membership. I have to say it is pretty awesome. I like how the new BizHawk pro emulates the 3DS and Wii U. I also see the beta core for the PS4 which looks promising! I can't wait for these TASes. If I could donate to cure cancer of buy TASVideos PRO I would choose TASVideos PRO.

The sourceforge page says 1.6.0 is the latest version still. It just needs to be updated.

No vote. It is not really entertaining. But it looks like a good optimized run so I think it should be accepted. But for vault.

Thanks for that. However I'm wondering about your preference. Do you have any opinion for it?

If I were to make a TAS of Super Mario Galaxy 1 or 2 what do you think would be better? I am not guaranteeing I will ever finish this project or even start it btw.

This looks like an awesome game to TAS. Too bad it doesn't emulate well... I love this game though. It looks like it could have lots of movement tricks that could save time (like SM64).

If you have the values in mupen then try this. 1. Convert the movie for BizHawk. 2. Check skip lag frames in BizHawk. 3. Play the movie in both but have it paused so both are on frame 0. 4. Choose an address to find. 5. Check the value of the address in mupen. 6. Search for that value in BizHawk. 7. Advance to next frame. 8. Repeat steps 5-7 until you have found the address. If I don't understand your question correctly than ignore this.

If you uncheck read only when playing a movie, the movie still plays in read only mode.

Browsing for additional files to load a movie gives an error. For me at least. It's the super mario bros. TAS. EDIT: I had to reconvert the FCEUX movie, apparently converted movies must be reconverted to be used for 1.6.0a.

Great game choice. Gold is the best Gen II Pokemon in my opinion. Also, great run, yes vote. Amazing improvement too! This needs a lighting bolt next to the movie when it is published.

Bug: On the sourceforge page the latest version is labeled as 1.5.3 as opposed to 1.6.0a. EDIT 3: This seems to have been fixed. EDIT: Also, this bug has been around forever, the pause key doesn't always work, which can be very annoying. Changing the pause hotkey to a key other than the pause key does not produce this bug. I know my pause key is fine because other emulators that use pause key for pausing don't have this issue (e.g. FCEUX). EDIT 2: Load GB in SGB option throws an exception once the core is rebooted.[/submission]

When having a trouble shooting issue it is always best to test it on the latest version, 4.0.2. Let me know if it still desyncs in 4.0.2.
