No, it doesn't affect judging. That's the way Dolphin emulates (it's like that for all games), and the judges know that. The encode, of course, shows what the run would look like if your computer could play it back in full speed in Dolphin.

It won't run at full speed unless you have a powerful computer. You can still TAS it accurately, but it will play back slowly.

The Screw Attack? When does Kevin get the Screw Attack in the movie?

Is the movie in the same folder as the save? Dolphin saves the movie state in the root folder (where your Dolphin.exe is). Try moving your dtm to that folder.

I'm not sure where SpongeBob ends up after the screen freezes and the HUD glitches out, but he's somewhere where he can jump and Bubble Spin. Maybe above the interior of the Chum Bucket? It would be hard to test the loading zone theory with this though, since you can't see where you're going.

Didn't you say you saw SpongeBob go really high and he slowly started falling back down? How can I get the code to give me that result?

I'm having the same problem as itsPersonnal. I stand in the Chum Bucket after disabling the hand and press A and B on one frame, with the 006C5144 code on. This is what happens every time I try. What could be the problem?

Would something in the middle work, like 006C5159? Or does the value have to end in 00?

This would probably take too long to set up in a run anyway, but I don't suppose this cuts down on lag?

Still not a very interesting run, but it's an improvement. Yes vote!

Scrimpeh, Guga linked to an encode on the first page. I don't think this game will ever make for a good TAS. It's just so bad. No vote.

Nahoc, I think your judging decision was fair and you explained it well. Great job!

Good run of a bad game. I liked all the funny antics the two players were doing and all of the enemy names. Yes vote.

I was entertained. I like the music, but I don't really like how most of the areas are so dark around a few spaces in the center of the screen. Still, very good run overall. Yes vote.

Thanks. :P Colored: I like it. Looks better than anything in Syobon Action, at least.
Broken quotes are great fun.
OK, fine, I'll fix it.

Thanks for helping out, nitrogenesis! We're going to keep working on the later levels; I have no doubt that any improvement can be hexed in without a problem.

Link to video A N64 Superman (Superman 64) speedrun by aleckermit. Based on this, I don't think even a TAS would be entertaining.

The person who judges your run will play back the verification dtm and then play back your "normal mode, cutscenes skipped" TAS, and the TAS is verified if it starts from the save that the verification dtm makes. Like I said, just include it in the submission text.

You submit the TAS and include a link to the verification movie in the submission text.

I would like to see a (NewGame+?) normal mode run with the cutscenes skipped (2nd time through), especially since the finished run won't be put in the Hacks/Demos section anymore, and it will still be published on the main GameCube page.

Only 25 seconds slower than a rejected run from 6 years ago. Obvious no vote
Voting No just for suboptimality, but the run is also pretty boring.

Emulator used: mupen 64 rerecording v2
This is what concerns me. Aren't we on v8? Is there even a Mupen-rr v2? EDIT: Watched the encode, and I wasn't entertained. Partly because the graphical glitches are annoying and make the encode almost dizzying to look out. No vote.

I didn't even know there was a Super Bowling 64, but I believe it. LOL Mupen v2.

Are there any precedent cases of glitched passwords? I'm wondering if there has been something else like this.
There was this submission which glitched a password to skip to the credits. It was rejected for being too unentertaining though, not because of the glitch.
