I rather see a flawless movie. Looks prettier. But then again.. I'm not counting the in game clock so.. I count the time in actual viewing time. :D

The enemy would still do the final blow even if cyan wasn't there right? But if I understood the file correctly no one beside Cyan get's to hit right? The enemy can't do nothing, and your party can't do nothing. Depending on how much damage Cyan is dealing this could really be a way. Depending on the time it takes to get Cyan, contra his usability.

Just read the ff3bug.txt file. Damn there's alot of bugs. Most of them worthless though. And I don't even know why people sit and track all these down. Since it really can't been just stumbled uppon doing those crazy stuff that guide mentions. :D How ever I really do like the "Cyan goes berserk" bug. Think that should be exploited in the run. Atleast at the last fight. Could speed up the game alot since Cyan won't stop hitting. How ever I don't really know how long it takes to grab him though.

Not sure about the desync problem. Not about the problem though - Have you check the already excisting movie made by Derek? Done on the hardware though. So no states etc.. But maby you can pick up some hints etc, if needed. Don't know your skills etc in this game. Are you going for a 102% run or just a pure time attack? Anyways.. Here's the link to the movie by Derek: http://www.archive.org/movies/details-db.php?collection=speed_runs&collectionid=DonkeyKongCountry2_133

The run is really good (the part I can see). The fmv seems to screw up right after you get out of Norfair and get back to Brinstar on your way to Kraid's Lair. It de-synchs or something, I dunno. Do you suppose the rom I have is bad?
Check the thread at http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1174 I think they talked about it there. How ever, I had no problem watching the run with my emulator and rom so.. :)

I report a successful viewing throughout. A question, though; apparently, the game only displays six Energy Tank blocks when more can be picked up. Do the values stop at six, or can your energy be refilled by one of the "hidden" tanks? Thank you.
You can only have 6 tanks. But the other one(s) refill your energy to max if you have lost any.

Do you have the unfinished run left on your computer somewhere?

I switched from Win2k pro with SP4 integrated to WinXP with XP 2 integrated. It proved to be a stupid thing to do. Xp seems good in the beginning. Very fast and looks nice and all that. But after just a week or so it beginns to run like shit. Program crashes and extream resource usage.

Perhaps you guys should try some real music like Cannibal corpse, Dark funeral, Sorhin, Immortal, Iniquity, Envilent? Sure.. I like Nightwish allso.. But it becomes a bit too much. I've seen them live once as well. Pretty good live. Nothing like Cannibal corpse live though. That was pretty kewl.

I'm not really sure that I used the sketch glitch to get that bug. Sure. It might be possible to get that bug with the sketch glitch. But I don't think I had Realm in my team at that point. Is there any other known way to pull it off?

Hmm.. I don't think it's only about the frame rate. Because when you morph back from ball, Samus will stop a bit in mid air, allowing you to move upwards right?

Is your old computer faster than the new one? Sorry to tell you this but, last buy you got ripped off! :( Hehe.. Sorry.. Just way to tired. Haha. I checked that box called "MAX" next to the speed setting. A very stupid option I must say. Hehe. I thought I would soil my pants because the music got all messed.

Just finnished watching the movie. I can just go WOHAAAOOOIII!!! Damn you show off some nice glitches. :D Really enjoyed Tourian. And that bubble world which I can never remember the name of. Hehe.. The whole movie was great. Think it can be improved further? Shiat.. Don't know what to say. Damn fine work of art you've got there atleast. How long has the work taken you? *giving standing ovations* Hehe.. My eyes are bleeding I think. It's kinda late.. Or early, depending on how you see it. Half past 3 in the night. :D Feels sad that the movie ends in a way. I really enjoyed all the tricks and the game play. It was very entertaining. Think I'm writing the same stuff all over again. All creds goes to you. Good night! :D

I remember pulling off a glitch that brought general Leo back from the dead. How ever he disappeared in the next battle. I think it was Strago that got changed to Leo. And Leo was pretty powerful at that point. This was in the cave you can enter when travelingwith Figaro. Then, after a while the game crashed. But it was pretty kewl. Is this a known glitch that can be re-done easily? Would very much like to see it again.

Not sure for NES, but I know that Donkey Kong Country 3 for SNES has one of those cheats.

This would be a nice run as well. How ever. I didn't think about this before. But a movie file that is 8 hour long would need more movie segments. Not sure if it's possible to choose a frame to start? I haven't looked at it at all. But indeed. A nice run it would make.

Either way would be most exciting to watch. I have played the game alot on hardware, and I have played around alot with it as well. I allways enjoy movies that show secrets, glitches etc that wasn't known to me before. I would pretty much like to see Jyzero work like a slave in chains for this run. :D I very much like to see it done.

Woha! Thanks for all that info! I feel abit wiser now. :D Jyzero - Could you perhaps post the emulator movie so that we can see it before it's done? =)

Is it possible to run these programs along with my regular firewall? Using Sygate. Otherwise I could just block those Ip's in my firewall. But I'm too lazy. :)

Ok.. But can Gogo mimic the 8-hit or will he just make one? Oh.. And sorry if I offend people by saying that Gogo is a he. We really don't know anyways, do we? =)
