What I did when encoding SNES hacks is simple. I renamed the IPS file to the same name as the ROM, and them I've put it in the same folder the ROM. After this, SNES9x automatically loaded the game with the hack. Did you try this?

That's the first thing I tried, actually.

The main issue with hacks of Super Metroid is that there's multiple versions of the ROM out there, some with headers and some without, and the hack patch doesn't work if it's applied to the wrong type of ROM.

Ah, well that explains it then. I'll play around with this a little more and see if I can't get it to work. I'll look up 'NSRT SNES' while I'm at it, too. Thanks to everyone for the advice. I'm looking forward to watching the run.

Is there any chance I could get a link to a prepatched version of the romhack? I can't seem to patch the rom correctly, and I prefer to watch SNES TASs from the emulator, rather than an encode.

What difference (if any) does it make which of the three locations you choose at the end?

Regardless of if the video is suitable for the site (which I am hardly entitled to comment on), I think it is none-the-less a very well done TAS. I think the way the computer is befuddled by Pirohiko in this is an excellent example of the maxim, "a good player plays the game, but a great player plays his competitor."
