All times are for perfect-score runs Albatross Nest (HangGlider): 00'29"27 Balloon Crash (Rocket Belt): 00'19"99 Novice Rings (Gyrocopter): 00'48"76 Indeed it would... just watched the 2007 WIP and tried some TASing on this game myself. I think the previous WIP is rather unoptimized and can be improved on (for instance the first Hang Glider mission was beaten by ~a second by Stefan Mahrla non-TAS) I found some interesting things but unfortunately... there is too much desynchs. I used Mupen v2 rerecording v2 + reset but it desynched before actually playing any level. I will try some more times but I suspect the desynchs will be too much an obstacle for me. (note the same thing happened to me in Goldeneye and 1080 snowboarding.... my Snes9x TAS experiences are *so* much better :P) edit: Ok done some more trying on the first HangGlider test (Albatross Nest)... this game seems interesting to be optimized tbh, unfortunately... more desynchs pester it's progress so at the moment I still do not know whether I will continue non-TAS time = 0'40"81 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Es34-IZKcQU) TAS time = 00'29"27 (cannot capture avi :/) pretty nice difference if you ask me :( shame on the desynch monster! edit2: lots of desynchs but the first test succeeded edit3: Okay I realize Stefan Mahrla doesn't claim his vids to be speedruns but they are the fastest times I could find.... anybody got better ones?

I just played the first level of Blast Corps on this as well (which doesnt emulate on Mupen) so I'm all for.... unfortunately I cannot contribute anything to the development of it edit: note that it did not emulate perfectly at all and would not be at an acceptable state for this website.... however it did get me to play :) as a complete emulation-code newbie.... how compatible would 2 different emulators' code be? (as in... maybe the code from 1964 can be inspected to find fixes for mupen?)

I watched it and it looks very nice I've only played KuruKuru Kururin (gba) but watching this was very fun to me From what I can tell it looks very good technically as well (yes vote)

Huh. I get a desync after the first level, when you're on the lift/elevator. Yakko dies. It's sad. Any reason why this may happen? I'm using 1.43 v9 (although I've never had any problems with other movies that were made using v13).
Humm remember the same happened with my Young Merlin submission? :x I just tested with a fresh download of this Snes9X v1.43+ v11 (beta15 + lua 0.06) for Windows. ROM info (as provided by the aforementioned Snes9x):

hope that helps in making it work....

Being an aspiring Voice Actor, the Animaniacs are one of my favorite characters to impersonate (all 3 of them). I should mention that it's Yakko and Wakko, not Yacko and Wacko. Will try to watch and vote later.
Oops very stupid mistake :x will fix later (when i'm not in a rush) cheers for clearing that up edit: fixed that now

interesting the only difference when you get all the scripts is the Pinky&Brain scene after the credits? vote yes, nice run!
Thanks, the conversation before the credits also changes you can easily watch the non-100% ending by walking to the side thus preventing the warners from picking up the 24th script

I only ever listen to the music from this game, but I thought it was interesting to watch. Add to that the obvious effort put into it, and it's a more impressive feat. I have to agree with the idea of getting 99 continues, because there was never a time when there was nothing to look at, since the slots were almost always going. This will certainly appear on the site.
Glad you liked it and thanks for the feedback!

hi, very interesting and fast paced run about the water world first part, what is the trigger that make the script pages appears ? is it the golden coins ? i tought that lurkers couldn't vote but i was able to, was the rule changed ?
Thanks Yeah in the water world sometimes a sequence of coins jump out of the water, the last coin (when collected) spawns the script.

The pendulum should release the ball at the same time regardless of its length. Additionally, the ball launches with a velocity perpendicular to the pendulum (thus, 20° up from the horizontal). We can use the first fact to determine the amount of time the ball spends in flight, and the second to determine how far (horizontally) it flew during that time. That gives us the horizontal velocity, with which we can solve for the vertical velocity using basic trig; that in turn gives us the ball's kinetic energy, which was derived from its potential energy, which depends on the length of the rod. I don't feel like plugging in the numbers, but this should be the right approach.
It only releases at a fixed angle, the moment in time of release is dependent of the pendulum's length... we do not know the height of release (because we do not know the length of the pendulum) and thus not the amount of kinetic energy I think you need to solve: (amount of time for sound to arrive) + (amount of time in flight) = 5s first term depends on the distance, thus on the horizontal velocity, thus on the speed second term depends on the vertical velocity, thus also depends on the (same) speed hence we need to rewrite such that speed becomes our only variable edit: after that we know the kinetic energy, which equals the energy gained from losing height (while on the pendulum)... from which we can calculate the height-difference between point-of-release and initial point. Then some trig to get the pendulum's length

I liked watching the movie, but I believe a more interesting result is possible. I don't know the reason for the cancellation btw. Also not sure about how to compare to other TASses of the same game

This should definately not be a limitation in a TAS

I watched the run on youtube before (and linked it to this site), having played the game it's a very nice movie to watch! However I have no idea if it's of any interest for ppl that haven't played the game... personally I'd love all variations of runs on this.... dmg/no-dmg, real/ingame-time edit: oh and i voted yes because I think the run is good quality (other ppl will have to decide on entertainment :P)

The more important question would be whether it is emulated properly i think? because if it synchs with an input-file, basic luck manipulation is always possible simply by trial-and-error just my 2c

I am not sure if I am getting you right, but you are using TAS Movie Editor to create the full TAS? if so: You should use FCEUX to do most of the TAS creation by using save-states and re-recording TAS Movie Editor is mostly used to alter input files after they are already created (for instance to change the moment of a jump in a side-scroller)

Ahh thanks, it works :) and I found out that switching to other windows with the emu playing tends to make it desynch (don't ask me why :D) surface 2 looks good. You (and Rising as well if i remember) run to a point where you shoot the camera through the wall/forest... is this the point where it loads or where it gets in line of sight? in the second case it may be possible to do with a grenade throw? kind of obvious so I'd expect you already thought of that (and then there's the issue of manipulating a 2nd grenade vs small amount of time saved...). Either case comments are welcome :) any new strategies on bunker 2 (compared to RT's)? I don't really understand why he slaps the first guard (rather than throwing a knife in the 2nd's head) good luck on maniping hte guards there :/

ah yeah I've seen the "strandbeest" things on telly before :D (it's a dutch word.... translates to 'beach-beast') He's been working on that for quites some years though because when i saw it it was ... at least 3 years ago and probably way more good find on both :)

How does one edit individual frames? Sorry if double-posting is discouraged.
1) Select the frame you want to edit 2) In the menu bar, click edit -> view editing console 3) Make sure you select/activate the controllers you wan. Default = all disabled, meaning no input will be overwritten 4) enter the input you want 5) hit the 'update' button edit: 6) Don't forget to save the file

because that trick is the biggest bitch ever to me I've just recorded a way, that uses a bombchu to kill goht, so I had more time to pull off the superslide there are enough frames to activate a superslide after shooting an arrow, but link is still holding the bow in his hand, so I can't activate a superslide any idea to get the bow away really quickly?
How about shooting some arrows, then launch a chu, then some more arrows, and time it so that the chu is the last hit and that you have exactly enough time to perform a slide? i have no knowledge about any of the zelda mechanisms but maybe it's possible to take damage (manip a hit from goth to you) to get the bow away faster? sorry if these are completely silly ideas :P

I'm on another forum where they use a button that someone has to press to uncover the spoiler imo it's a perfect system (and can also be used to hide large amounts of text (e.g..... a TAS route, a bunch of code, etc) example: http://forums.utassault.net/showpost.php?p=1517751&postcount=16 (in his sig) edit: oh and the syntax is just:

I hope I'm not saying something completely stupid here..... but proper emulation is not the same as TAS capabilities? as far as I can tell from the google code base issue, TAS functions are not yet ready? (no flaming plz :P, I hope as much as anybody else that it will work so )
