Can you please provide more information about the run (and the game)? This sounds interesting.

Much better than the previous run. Yes vote.

Just to clarify, my problem has been that the audio is too long for the video. The audio dumped as 34:05 and the video dumped as 34:02. So yeah, deleting video frames wouldn't help in this case.
I was told on IRC that a dumped audio track has some extra frames of silence added to the beginning of the recording, as well as being too slow (it needs to be sped up by 10-20%).

Thank you for encoding the WIP, antd! The WIP looks good from a technical standpoint, goofydylan8. 11:03-11:15 in the encode is very good. However, from an entertainment standpoint, some parts are kind of boring. That's just my opinion, though. Good luck with the optimization!

I agree with DarkMoon and Carl Sagan. The backtracking makes the run less entertaining and it should not be used in the 96-exit run.

I thought not getting the Fire Flower at the Toad Shop would allow me to catch the moving platform in Rogueport Sewers sooner, and jump to the pipe. However, after testing and being faster by almost 100 frames, I still could not make it. I'm going back to where I was, optimizing flying into the Blooper room. I should finish the Prologue soon.

You could upload it to MediaFire, and Brandon could link to it from there.

You could always provide a link to Dwedit's fixed ending encode in the submission. I don't think the normal encode should show something different than the replayed input file displays.

There is a lot of running, but that's a good thing with graphics like these ;).
Agreed. This game has amazing graphics. I found myself wanting you to run more just to make the beautiful backgrounds scroll by. I hadn't heard of this game before you started TASing it, but having watched the run in full, I'd say it deserves to be published on this site. I also liked how the act 6 boss kept foolishly eating you so you would do more damage to him. Yes vote!

Swordless Link has uploaded songs played on the Ocarina with tools (but no software like you said). He's played the full version of most of the ocarina songs, as well as music like the Simpsons theme intro and the Super Mario Bros. Theme.

I agree that a 100% run that uses all of the glitches, including stun and Yoshi Wing glitches, would be more entertaining. And as JXQ said, the small-only category will still be there to show nearly all of the game with no major glitches.

I like it. At least one of my screenshot suggestions had the claw "mode" at the bottom of the screen, which is more what I was going for, but your screenshot suggestion has claws in both places, so I like it better than my suggestions.

Didn't you try my tips and find out if they worked? The whole reason you started this topic was so someone could help you get your cheat codes to work.

By the way, because of the similarities between you and Kelly's avatar, I thought someone double posted. Confusing...
I've been told that before. That's my "Yes vote" avatar. It's slightly different from Mr. Kelly R. Flewin's (mine is reversed horizontally and not animated). Sorry for the confusion.

Some suggestions: 9967, 13105, 20286. I can't upload images of these screenshots because I'm at school and most hosting/storage sites are blocked here.

Nice improvement! Like ledauphinbenoit said, the reason this game actually makes for a somewhat entertaining TAS is that it can be beaten so quickly. Voting Yes (not a double post by Mr. Kelly R. Flewin; I'm CoolKirby and this is just my Yes vote Kirby).

Thank you for the encode, antd. I was really bored while watching this run, and that doesn't happen often when watching a TAS. This is just a bad game choice. I encourage you to try another game. If you find a game that looks like it will make for an interesting TAS, post on the forums asking other users' opinions first, then continue if we agree it would make for a good run. Voting No.

Another TASVideos one (this happens to me sometimes): Commenting on a submission you liked and saying "Yes vote!", then forgetting to vote Yes and continuing on with your day.

When I'll get TAS tools in real life, I'll come back to 2011 and delete the SOPA and PIPA from the USA's brain.
That would be most appreciated. Also, the whole USA isn't to blame for that. No one I know wanted those stupid bills to pass.

I'm failing to find a good screenshot for the publication. Any suggestions?
Maybe at around 7:40 in the encode, when Wolverine is fighting Magneto(?), is attacking with claws, and has low health. As for the run, well done! Health management and movement were both really good. Voting Yes.

Saying Yes, but only so that this can be a placeholder for a 100% TAS of this game. When that happens, this movie should be replaced with it immediately.
I don't think it works that way. If it's not an entertaining run, then it won't be published. And if a 100% run is never made, then this movie would sit in the Windows thread, and judging from the posts of those who voted No, possibly be in the same position as The Combatribes (having dozens of low entertainment ratings). I also wasn't entertained by the run and didn't see anything technically outstanding. A 100% run would probably stand a better chance of being accepted. Sorry, voting No.

I have never played a Final Fantasy game. I have never played any Sonic game other than the first one. I have never owned a Microsoft video game console. I have never owned a Mega Man game (but I've played two on an emulator).
