YEAH!!! I did it, first part of the video is complete!!! From the beggining to the Pyramid of Power, now i can screw around with the dark world. Wow thats alot of work. Ok, so here is the scoop, since it desyncs soo many times, about 5 or 6 times in the video, link will do something random but will not effect the gameplay, like i noticed he picked up a bush for no reason lol. Anyways, i am finally done the first part, so i hope everyone enjoys it. Oh and i almost forgot, the rom file is Legend of Zelda, The (E) http://www.filespace.org/Culden/Zelda_3_-_1._Beggining_to_Pyramid_of_Power Hope everyone finds it at least interesting, i know i made many mistakes and all that jazz, i would like some constructive critisism, but don't expect me to do a second run anytime in the near future, cause it was just too much of a pain in the ass. I will complete this run, and i will make the movie last every 2 dungeons. After i complete 2 dungeons, i will stop the movie and record from the start and do the next 2 dungeons, doing the light world in 1 run was really time consuming. This will be easier.

But the thing is, it will not get on this site, its definatly not professional enough, im just doing this cause its a very interesting game to play and watch. I am a bit sloppy compared to your runs. But i don't take any hits at all and i am aiming for 100% of the items. I just beat the level 3 boss. Took me literally 2 hours just to get the last 2 hits in. I had to study his movements alot because my movements altered his movements. It was very complicated to record but i am right up to leaving the forest after getting the master sword. Of course, since you will be seeing alot of faults, i am up for contructive critisism, and if you have any maps or plans, i would greatly appreciate them, cause i am going off my mind and the help of a walkthrough, and frankly, its quite hard since i don't remember all the events in the game or where every little thing is located, so i am rerecording alot. One more thing, i do not have a web site or anything, so would it be possible for one of you to host it for me please? I have no problem with people viewing my progress, but i don't think its good enough to be submitted...and if it is, then it would make this run worth the while.

OOOOO, i got passed the second palace boss ^-^ it desynced sooo many times and it took me about 5 and a half hours. So far i am up to Zora's waterfall about to go to the third dungeon, and i got everything so far, not taking any hits. Of course it doesn't look as professional as many players on this site but i am proud of it, and just realizing that i can work around all those desyncs makes me quite happy. But it takes a real long time. I should have the Light world fully beaten and everything aquired in a few hours then i will start working on the dark world. Oh and i am using Legend of Zelda, The (E). I thought it wouldn't desync as much but it does even more so it seems, but i will stick with it since i already put in many hours, i might try an even more professional looking video when i complete this one and work out my root alot more thoroughly.

I tried various versions of LTTP roms, but they all seem to desync, i haven't tried it up to the Desert Palace boss though, maybe i will give that ago, but i was also thinking, if i save the state as the hole in the sand begins to open, maybe the video won't desync, but the exact point when it ddesynced in my last video(no matter how many times i finished the boss) was right after the first worm jumps out of the sand for the second time, after that all hell breaks loose and you see Link running into the wall slashing like there is no tomorrow...until he dies that is ^-^

Well, it desynced in many places, but i have just changed my movement to fix the problem, but only during the the boss fight in the Desert Palace can i not fix the desync. It seems that the boss is too random?? I say this because he shows up in a different spot in the video i make, he shows up in a different sopt yet Link goes for the worm where he was when i was recording. I think it has to do with the save/load state. What i can do is make the run up to that point, then take the boss fight from my other video although i did get hit in my previous run(cause i didn't know how to rerecord) So is there a way i can implement a part of another video into this video? If there is i can just take my shitty boss fight and put it in until i find a way to fix the desync. I got the next 5 days off and i am almost done Illusion of Gaia 100% run, i may take it on again. (Off topic) For those who would like to see my runs, they are not as good as yours, but i am making video walkthroughs, not speed runs. So far i have Breath of Fire 1 and 2, Earthbound and Super Adventure Island 2 completed and Illusion of Gaia i will have finished tonight and i dont get hit in adventure island 2, and the rpg's i just fly through, i didn't record me leveling up so the RPG's are in parts. Its easier to follow and you don't have to watch it from the very begginging just to watch certain parts. I think i did good, i am very proud of my work and i didn't cheat at all. Still got to make a site for my walkthroughs though, but im not good at it so it may take me a long time to get a site going, unless someone wants to host them for me?? I know they are not good enough for this site already. ^-^

I am having a bit of a problem, i am trying to do a 100% speed run, but no matter what i do, the video desyncs at the boss in the desert palace. No matter how many times i redo the boss battle, it desyncs, but i did a video before and it didn't desync. I am using Legend of Zelda, The (U) Is there a specific rom version that will not desync, or is there a way around it?

Would be ool if there was a way, Saturns movie walkthroughs were quite interesting, i have talked to him about snes9x though, if all goes well, he might redo them all in snes9x ^-^

Oops, my mistake, i thought it was Lezards because it was on his site. Lezard is right, the expectations were different when everyone started working on them, its still is an amazing run in my opinion, but i am easily impressed.

Awesome, i thought Lezard's run was very interesting to watch, but since his isn't around anymore and the run is on my old computer, i can't watch it. Cheers for giving it a go dude ^-^

Twisted Tales of Spike McFang (U) seems to desync as well. I made it to the batland castle, near the end of it and it desynced...

What would be real entertaining would be a megaman x3 100% run, i mean the golden armor is really kool and all the different things you can do with it is really good. But i just really enjoy 100% runs, i find it more skillful than just zooming through a game *not that the other videos aren't skillful, cause i know they areand i love watching them* but really though, to see everything collected as fast as possible would be more than awesome. I did see a run on zophars domain. It was split into 2 parts. I haven't viewed it for years cause i don't know which emulator version it works with, i tried quite a few and couldn't get it ruinning, but it was very entertaining to watch. And it wasn't as good as you guys can do. *this is not a request, but i would be very happy if someone picked it up ^-^*

Wasn't sure where else to put this, but i downloaded the FCE Ultra download in this thread and in bisqwits emulator page, and the links download the file completely, but the thing is, i get an error when trying to uncompress the files. Is there a way to fix this or is the file just corrupt? Would someone be able to send me a working copy of the .rar please or is there a way to fix the corrupted file?

the guy who did it goes by Saturn. you can get it at www.zophar.net. Me and saturn used to do rpg walkthroughs. He of course is alot better than i am at doing them. I am not sure if he is still working on any games. Maybe if i told him about the rerecord function, maybe he will start making runs for the snes. I know he is a very busy person though. although very late, there is my 2 cents

Whew, with work and all, i don't have the time to make this run any better, maybe i will pick it up again sometime in the future. Would anyone like to see the movie as it is? It is FAR from perfect and i didn't do as well as i could/should have but i didn't die, and i did get everything except one backup chip which i can't believe i missed, i feel like an idiot cause it is an easy thing to pick up along the way. If anyone wants it, let me know so i can go to the internet cafe and send it to you.

hey dude, in spring breeze, the bosses lololo and lalala, they are much easier and faster to beat if you get rid of the cutter attack and use the bomb. The little black cannon like thingy. That will kill the bosses instantly. will save you a few second ^-^ otherwise, i think that the run was superb.

I used to play this game all the time when i was a wee laddy. I loved it to death, but i wasn't that good at it, i would play it all the time and wouldn't get very far. I believe this would be a very interesting speed run. You have your variety of heads and stuff, the game can be quite fast paced, the music is interesting to hear in the backround. Would anyone care to give it a try?

I got the Famtasia 5.10 from the link here, but the only problem is now, whenever i load up a rom, any rom for the nes, famtasia immediatly crashes. I get the message "famtasia510-patched.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." if anyone has the same problem and/or knows how to bypass this problem, please let me know. Thank you in advance

Hehee, sorry i didn't post in a long time on this, i have been working away at it, but i am now able to do this on my computer cause i have a cable card. Much better than sending it to someone through video tape eh ^-^. Anyways, my new time is 3:43. The way i did is, there are many improvements i can make, cause i got hit alot, sometimes purposely, but the majority out of my own stupidity. I am not as good at this game as i used to be. I will try to go for a shorter run, but it may take me awhile again to get it to look good. Sorry for the wait and if anyone is interested in this run as it is so far to get an idea of how it will look, let me know and i will go on msn or AIM and send it to you sometime. Thanks for encouraging me to try this game and i hope to do better!

Heh, alright, now i am not sure if i should bother trying for 100%. I know that it would be a faster run if i skip the 100% but i also believe that it would lose alot of interest. Its not easy to try for all the powerups in a certain amount of time. So when i am done work, i will give it another go for 100% and see how things go, i will let you know if i will continue to try for 100% or just a pure timeattack after a few more runs. I hope my results continue to improve, last run was only improved by 16 seconds, but i did have interuptions.

Sorry guys, i had to move. I moved to Edmonton Alberta looking for work, and found nothing, so i moved to Banff and am now working at the 4 diamond resort hotel the Rimrock hotel. I am working everyday, but my roomate have a nice setup including tv and all that good stuff. My apologies for not keeping in touch, there is no computer where i am at, just an internet cafe which i don't have the money for yet. Anyways, im gonna go through it again on my next day off, which is in 2 days. Again, i apologize for not keeping in touch and i didn't forget, just got sidetracked big time ^-^. I will let you know of how my results turn out.

Yeah but technically, you would be only pressing the button once lol ^-^
