Okey, but starting a new dash also causes delay so dash jumping is most likely the best way to go, but as nitsuja said: "It depends on the situation". :) Anyways, I haven't even started the actual run yet but I promise I'll do something for it after wednesday. (Mayby the first stage)

Your WIP is somewhat okay. Although you fail at some points. For one, it's best to do a jump at the end of your dash. This way you don't lose frames, instead of when you just dash aftereachother.
Is Zero's speed the same if he moves by dashing or by dashjumping? I mean is there a difference in speed if you use >+L or >+L+A? (>=right, L=dash, A=jump)

Yes, shooting the bomb was a mistake which i intend to fix. And thanks for the dash + jump hint. I'll try to remember that. Although I didn't quite understand that taking damage part. When you are in the bossfight, you need to reduce the boss' health to get the Z-sabre, not your own. (yes, I have tested that).

I made testrun of MegamanZero 1 which i actually quite short. :) I uploaded it so that everyone who's interested enough can see it (even though it's pretty short). I'll most likely redo it since I can do it 10-30 frames faster and I'm still in the very beginning of the game. Althou' it may take samo time to get it started (couple weeks) since I'm very busy with my school (which some of you may already know :) ). But after that I should have enough free time to make it.

Yeah, I got that (somehow) when I started making trialrun of MegamanZero and while i started making it, there were few options which you were able to choose from and there was that SRAM thing also. But thanks for clarifying that properly for me.

Gigafrost, you making run of MegamanZero? I was thinking making run of it but if you are, then I'm going to make run of MegamanZero 2. (Unless someone is making run of that too.)

82-35-43, it desynced right in my own room when i was turning to the stairs (or door, whatever). It turned one square too soon, so insted of going to the stairs, it it walked towards the wall. And so in the movie I didn't even get out of the first room :) About the internal clock thing: I don't know about VBA but when i played Pokemon Crystal through with my phone (Nokia 3230) using vBoy emulator, it seemd to use the clock of the phone even though I was playing with double fps. So I played with double speed but the clock was workin in real time and was correct now matter what time I played it. Mayby VBA has also an internal clock something like this.

Well, if you are going straigh through the game (no catchin extra pokemon, getting items and so on), you wont need Flash since you don't need to go through any of those dark caves. But if you are going in dark cave, you can't se a thing in the (except the exit) with out Flash. It's just a black screen where you are in the middle. In short: For speedruns, you don't need Flash :)

Hmm... I just check my progress and found out that it desyncs with the rom which i used to make it with! I don't know what causes this and so I'm not going to make this run. Sorry for getting all of your hopes up. :( But if anyone is going to make a run of Pokemon Crystal, now there are few good hints from me. :)

I have a feeling that if I complete this run, it will be somewhat imperfect since i don't have tha patince to make every hit critical etc. Anyaways, should I catch Pidgey or Hoothoot as my flying pokemon? Pidgey would have Gust at the start (flying type attack) and Hoothoot would be able to learn Flash (which I most likely won't need if I'm not going to make any detours to dark caves). And what should I name my rival? :) I was thinking ??? since when you meet him the first time he says "My name's ???".

Thanks Shark. No matter what run I'm making, you seem to be always encouraging me :) I appreciate that.

I started making a run of Pokemon Crystal but it's only a trialrun to check if I'm up to it :) I chose Crystal beacause i have just played it through with my phone :D and because of the hints in here about the Poliwag. I chose the time to be 3:30 AM and i hope i can make it to Violet Town (the 3rd town) in ½h and catch Poliwag in there while there is night. The reason, why I need to play it so close is because when i leave Violet Town and go to the Union Cave, I'm gonna catch Sandshrew from there and it seems to appear only during morning and daytime. (So if you didn't get it, night changes into morning in 4:00 AM) The day i chose to be Monday. Now special reason for that except you can get Magnet (electric power-boosting item) only in Monday. I'm not sure if I'm going to need it but there didn't seem to be any other useful stuff in any other day so i chose this. (Feel free to point out if I should have chosen some other day and why). Well, that's all the planing I have done for it so far. If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears since as you can see, my planings are pretty poor. :) Oh, yeah. Almost forgot. For the starter Pokemon i chose Cyndaquil. That's because Chicorita is weak against Flying (first gym) and i get water type pokemon from Poliwag, so that leaves Totodile out.

I think you should throw those ideat to me in private to prevent too much offtopic stuff in this topic. :) I btw started making trial run of Pokemon Crystal but I'm not at all sure yet that am I going to make that a full run. So I'd still like to here more suggestions for a run.

I'm not going to start run with Bass since I'm pretty sure that Gigafrost's run wuold be much better than mine. And because he has almost completed the run. As I said before, I'll start to make run of some other game after few weeks (since I'm kinda busy with my school right now :( ). So if you have any ideas (for GBA or SNES), feel free to give 'em to me. I guess this got a bit offtopic and i apologize for that :)

I have tried that rom (many times) but without any luck. What comes to the emulators, I have used snes9xw-improvement7 and snes9x-1.43-win32 And for AngerFist: Gigafrost said yesterday "I progressed to the first "King Stages" boss.". I don't think that he has advenced much farther but to be sure, we need to wait his reply :)

What rom did you use to make this?!? I have tried 7 different roms (all I could find), but allmost all of the desyncs in Ground Man stage (one in the very beginning).

Since you still seem to be working with the run, I won't come and interrupt it because you are so far already. It's not that far to the end. And if I started continuing this, the quality would most definitely decrease at least a bit, which you wouldn't be so happy about. So i just step back and cheer you to complete this run. It will be worh finishing since there isn't yet a run of R&B with Forte. I think I'm just gonna start some other game to make TAS of.

Gigaforst, would it be okey if I'd continue your R&F run since you seem to have abandoned it? And also if I learn to use properly snes9x ;) I made my own run with Bass (in GBA) to Astro Man and the people started to encourage me tu make the run with snes. And while they were at it, they told me that I should complete your run. Although I'm pretty sure the quality will decrease but hey, atleast it will be completed ;) I won't rush it through thou'. And you can check the quality of my runs in the GBA topic. If you'd be kind enough to inform me before weekend, I might do it a bit but after that I'll continue on it after ~2 weeks. EDIT: And it would help a lot if i knew which rom were used to make this run.

Looks pretty nice (lthough it most definitely wouldn't hit the Top 10 of speedruns ;) ). To make the movie more interesting/entertaining you should try to evade those enemy bullets (or what ever they are) more closely.

Oh, I didn't know (/remember) that the previous one was made with Famtasia. Well, that's understandable then. Btw, I must say you are doing a really great job. There definitely wasn't a single spot in the run which could be done faster, atleast to my knowledge.

If the battle was 3 frames slower than the previous one, shouldn't you correct that and make it atleast +-0? Or was this only an example (yes, I didn't bother to check my self :) ).

That's very fine looking hack and I agree that it could be TASworth but everyone should play it through themselves to fully understand the TAS. And i believe that many of us may have played enough SMB3 to play some hack through. Although this has woken up my interest and I'm surely gonna play it for a while ;)
