I tried MAME before I settled on FBA, and although I downloaded the alpha version, for some reason, I couldn't find the actual application anywhere. So I tried the beta version, and Vs. Castlevania was running perfectly fine. I opted out of it though because it was not only hard to figure out how to record a movie in the first place, but whenever I changed the buttons for the hotkeys, everytime I reopened MAME, it would reset to its original settings.
In other words, I'm pretty sure that my game isn't the problem. I'm fairly certain that you use a zip folder to load the game.

After years of messing around with other emulators, I've decided to bask in arcade emulation. However, whenever I even attempt to load the application, I receive a Guru Meditation with the error code: #c0000005 . 6D902060
The game I have in the rom folder, for now, is Vs. Castlevania, since it should be a simple game to play. Is there any way to fix this?

Hey guys. Quick question: I decided to try out DeSmuME for my laptop and am trying to figure out how the touch screen mechanic works. When the game is running normally, I can just use the arrow, but when I have it on frame advance, the mouse no longer works for the touch screen. Is this a laptop thing where I need an actual mouse for DeSmuME? I normally use my laptop's built-in finger pad for my computer usage.

Unlike most of you, I somewhat enjoy the train sections. It's a nice break from all the craziness in the TAS.
The best parts were the dungeons though. Easy yes vote.

I'm not really sure why I'm on here, but I couldn't find any good answers anywhere else.
Last month, I screwed up badly and committed a hit-and-run. I hit a parked car as I slid into it due to snow that was falling. I didn't have a note to leave, so I panicked and kept driving. But it was caught on camera. An officer came to me and gave me a citation and just today, I appeared in court. I have another date next month to negotiate a lesser penalty, but the penalty for a class B misdemeanor looks pretty bad. It's not just a pricey fine, but at worst, there might be some jail time. I doubt there'll be jail time, but I'm still horrified by the whole thing.
I've been severely depressed by this whole ordeal. I have no idea how to deal with this, and I don't know anyone that has experienced this like I have. I just want to lock my bedroom door and shut myself away from the world. What should I do? What's going to happen to me? These questions haunt me and I don't know what to expect anymore.

No vote for not redoing every single level for the golden strawberrys. smh
This isn’t a criticism of the movie, but of the game. The voting should be done based on the movie quality.
I'm voting yes.
>_> <_<
That was a joke. Going back for the golden strawberries would have made the movie not only nearly twice as long, but repetitive. Of course it's a yes vote!

Well, this TAS was certainly well made and fairly optimal. But as the others have said, there are tricks that have already been introduced that you didn't use in this run. For that reason alone, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to say no.
But you've clearly shown you're capable of making a great TAS though.

I'm not even sure what's the point of making a TAS like this. I'm all for making more unique TASes, but this one seems absolutely no different from the regular warped run.
Voting no.

And yet it'll make a lot of money because: "OMG AY REMEMBER DAT MOVIE BEFORES! LOLZ!" I'm also sick and tired of Disney's crap. I'd like to stay away from the Lion King remake, except my girlfriend wants to see it. I can at least try to tell people that they suck.

I think it's sad how everyone is disregarding, or worse, pissing all over Dragon Quest's inclusion in Super Smash Bros. As much as I love Banjo-Kazooie, the fans treatment of Dragon Quest is very appalling. I swear, there's no satisfying these "fans."
I, for one, am very excited to play both characters regularly!

I just saw Detective Pikachu. I was really hoping it would break the video game curse because critics actually like this one. But I wasn't a big fan. I love Pokemon, but this one didn't really do it for me. I felt it took itself a little too seriously and it wasn't as fun as I wanted it to be.
Ryan Reynolds is pretty entertaining though.

Captain Forhead was probably referring to theatrical grossing, not overall grossing. Also not the adjustments to inflation part too.
Exactly that.
I'll admit that Endgame is not even close to being one of the best superhero films, but I still enjoyed it. Although all the cheering in my theater-showing got SUPER annoying SUPER fast. That's called pandering to the audience, and I hate that with a passion!
Also, I'd like to see It Follows. My brother said it was pretty good.

Why couldn't they have made the movie fully CG?
I am of the opinion that it is because more adults would be attracted to it being live action instead of animated.
There is this mindset that if something is animated, then it's probably "just for kids," and some people would lose interest. I believe this is mainly why live-action Smurfs movies made more money than the animated one that came out just a couple of years ago, despite that that one was better reviewed.
As far as I can tell, the producers don't give a rat's ass about how well their films are criticized, but how much money it can make. This is why Illumination Entertainment are still a thing, because even though there movies are bad, they make a butt-load of money, so they keep doing the same formula over and over again.
This seems no different from this Sonic movie. You can tell this one had "producers trying to pander to the lowest common denominator" written all over it.
