Was not entertaining, the game gives no variety to be seen. You could basically watch the first 500 frames and you would have seen everything this TAS would have to offer. I'm afraid the game just doesn't give much to work with in terms of entertainment. Vote : No

I personally have a lot of graphical issues with 1.51, it's the same reason I had to do Yoshi's Island in 1.43 as well. Also, what Dromiceius said, i was having that issue when i was doing Addams family and it's something I'd rather not have happen when I'm 2 hours through the game. And Phil: save / reset is refering to console reset which would explain your desyncing

I do plan to make this a full-time project, I have made some recent discoveries regarding an experience glich as well as me and Nitrodon had some brainstorming regarding the last boss. We've developed a unique strategy that will invariably take down Zeromus probably faster than most people would do even with a full party of 70's. I am not trying to downplay your work at all, I do believe that for a first time you did remarkably well. And yes, the in-game clock is decieving in terms of movie frames, however, I believe it would be a bad choice not to try and optimize the in-game time as well as the total movie frames. All in-game time saved in my current wip has not affected the movie frames in an adverse way. In fact I believe with all the extra pausing it has actually ended all of the auto-battles a total of about 40 frames early. Version choice is inevitably the authors choice. Consensus from the people i've spoken to on IRC is that the US version is best for 2 reasons. Because it's in English(obviously) and because it is what the majority of the viewers would be accustomed to. You and I both know about the extra abilities in the japanese version, but a much more casual player/watcher may not know of them. This leads to a misunderstanding that may cause them to dislike the movie. These are the reasons that I think the US version is best. Of course there are good reasons for both. As for save / reset. I believe there to be no good arguement against it. As I said, it's either watch for less time the person resets the game now and then, or watch more random battles that the player will just run from anyway. I do appreciate your interest in this though. It sparked me to become less lazy and start on my own. As soon as I can get a satisfactory Mist Dragon fight I'll try to post regular WIPs, but for now I need to do a 15th fight with him. (I'm getting tired of him =( , he's getting annoying ).

After trying to think of a new game to work on, I saw some posts for FF4, and since I had been avoiding it for so long, I felt it was about time. I have a WIP that progresses up to Kaipo, but I wanted to see what you were going to bring to the table CGoCPftF, before I posted it. I'm a little underwhelmed. 1. I'm not satisfied by your version choice. Being that it's "hard-type", makes it easier because of extra abilities that can easily be exploited by a TAS(general consensus is to play on hard difficulty unless it really hinders the entertainment). Also being in japanese makes viewers very much uninterested(because it really hinders the entertainment). 2. It's upoptimized like crazy, your in-game timer is 46 seconds slower than mine at the end of kaipo even though you have shorter dialouges and a shorter guard fight. 3. I must vote yes for save / reset because a. it makes the movie shorter by saving time, b. the only arguement against it is that instead of seeing someone save / reset you get to see the player run from yet more battles(Note: I also had a run without the save / reset and it was still 43 seconds faster). Here is my not so current WIP, I've already found some changes that improve an extra 147 frames. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/753724276/FF2.smv

excellent work, i didnt notice the difference between this and the last movie tho, was there more marble spinning?

Level 1 was improved due to better control off screen and level 4 was improved both due to minor optimizations and a wider turn at the very end to retain as much speed as possible in order to bypass the hammers.

it was moderately entertaining, particularly the boss fight, but compared to a full run, i dont really see the point, other than to show off an interesting glitch. voted no.

I guess i dont understand this. The point is beating the game in just barely over 6 minutes. Something that can't be done on console. Similar to 4 minute Legend of Zelda a link to the past. Gliching games or abusing programing oversights/errors to beating them quicker is probably about what 75% or more of the currently published movies on this site do. Did you also vote no on SM64 16 star run, or Guanobowls LoZ Ocarina of time?

I think ShadowOfMyles is a pretty reliable source. I believe it if he says he's done it. This will need to have some serious looking into =)

I dont think thats quite in keeping with the spirit of the site. I dont think an unoptimized movie should be submitted just because it shows off a trick

I've already sent Nitsuja some information and asked him to check if this is in fact an emulation error or a legitimate glich. Also, I have to ask, because i haven't heard from any of you that you're having the same problem. When I try running SMW2 on 1.51 the background has a tendancy to cover up the foreground on certain levels. 1-4, 1-7, 5-1 are best examples. Is that my computer or is that 1.51?

Right now I think the fastest method is to play up to 2-1 and then warp to 6-1 and then continue normally from there. 2-2 -> 3-8 then 4-1 -> 6-4 is also worth testing so see if it works, and if so, if it is faster.

You would be mistaken to think either of these =) I won't elaborate just yet

Edit: What about 1-2; 4-6; 5-8; 6-8?

No as laughing gas said, using the warp changes some ram values and thus the different warps he posted only apply to if you get to said levels legitimately

BTW, this is what Adelikat gets for saying

I believe this run to be un-improvable due to this frame rule. While there might be a possibility that you could squeeze a frame or two in a level, not enough to overcome the next frame rule. PERFECT ;)

Just playing there buddy =D

phoenix is a swift and deadly spacecraft that is rapidly replacing the older scouts and corsairs

I hope this doesn't mean no corsairs. Disruption Web is SOOOOOO useful. Unless the phoenix also gets it, then I've got no beef.

Don't interpret that as meaning 2300, last night meaning times between 1900-2100. When children are still awake

It's nothing a kid can't turn on the National Geographic channel and see. Hell last night I was watching the discovery channel and it was a show about animals that came before humans. And i'll be damned if they didn't show one mount the other in order to inpregnate it. Digital animals mind you. And I know they've shown lions having sex. So...whats the problem? For this, it's IMPLIED, that the bears are having sex. It's just 2d images placed in front of the other.

Foda told me to post in the thread how much i liked the movie. I liked it thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis much. Compared to the published run, this run makes the original look like pong vs super mario. Boring stuff replaced with some ingenuity. Maybe the dirty jokes don't tickle some of your funny bones, but would you prefer a dirty joke at the dinner table or everyone being completely silent and eating thier meal? Clever and "subjective" humor forces me to vote yes and to note to the judges that, the site is about entertainment and although not EVERYONE will find something entertaining, I bet 99/100 found the original run less than entertaining. If this run makes 3/100 find it entertaining, doesn't that mean it's better? also, WAFFLES!!!!!!!!
