GBA TAS of 2018 TASer of 2016 SNES TASer of 2016 PSX TAS of 2016 TASer of 2015 Rookie of 2015 SNES TASer of 2015
Hello, I am new to this site but have been RTA'ing SNES Mega Man X games since December of last year and have recently taken interest in making an X2 Any% TAS to beat the currently fastest published run by FractalFusion and Graveworm while showcasing new optimizations in the game which have been found after their TAS was made. My main question is in regards to something I read on the movie rules page: "Snes9x v1.43 movie files are deprecated and not accepted, unless a continuance is granted." Since the fastest published run of this category was made on Snes9x 1.43 and I am aiming to beat it, it would be more than likely impossible to do so unless I also used Snes9x 1.43 since it has faster load times and considerably less in game lag than Snes9x1.51/Bizhawk, even to the point where I would have to do a slower route in order to kill a certain enemy to reduce a substantial amount of extra lag. Would a Snes9x1.43 submission be acceptable if it is aiming to be a previously existing 1.43 run? If so, how do I go about getting a continuance granted? Also regarding Bizhawk, whenever I try to load a savestate while making a movie in a either of the two cx4 chip games(X2/X3), all things related to the chip either become invisible or disappear entirely which even soft locks the game at one point. Is there any way to fix this?
