For what it's worth, there's a video on YouTube somewhere (and every time I mention this I wish I'd saved the link) of someone pulling off a L+R glitch on an unmodded SNES controller.
By the way, can someone update my file by spikestuff vbm (up), it's still my run he just removed the blank input last part.
PS : Plz removed this subject if it's not on the appropriate topic
took you long enough to get progress on this one, are you going to finish it without further delays now?
My original post was not only about bots. It was also about lost and tampered rerecord counts.
6 rerecords for a 30-minute movie sounds to me like the actual count has been lost along the way.
The GoldenEye run having exactly 400000 rerecords sounds to me like it has been tampered with. (It would require quite strong evidence to convince me that the author just happened to finish with exactly that many rerecords.)
Actually i ended up with around 399xxx so yeah it's a bit faked but not alot. (Besides i have worked at times worked on several m64's so there's supposed to be several thousand more :P)
I remember one case where the author directly stated in the submission text that he changed the rerecord count because of personal amusement or something.
A single movie? I have hard time believing someone would rerecord over 2 million times by hand. Or even 860 thousand times. (If you rerecorded once per second, you would have to do that contiguously 24/7 for over 10 days in order to get 860 thousand rerecords.) If those millions of rerecords are indeed all made by hand, then I stand corrected, and impressed.
On the other extreme we have 6 rerecords for a 30-minute run. Sorry if I'm a bit skeptical about this being the actual count.
Can I reup my new record ?
Not sure why, but the encode is automatically playing as soon as I load Page 1. Kind of irritating, since I've already watched the SMV.
Watched the encode (thanks, Mothrayas!), and I must say, the run was quite insane. The Shinespark chains especially, it goes all over the place. Yes vote and easily one of the best and most action packed TASes I've seen in a while. /Mothrayas: The sound appears to cut off during the credits in the encode.
According to the search function, Dragonball Z Legends is somewhere on this list, but I don't feel like skimming through fourteen pages to find it. A straight speedrun of the game wouldn't be entertaining. Manipulating the AI to get max combos would just be the same drill over and over. However, there's also something in the game called the Z Score. This is based on how true to the story you play the game. For example, if you want Super Saiyan Goku to fight Frieza, you have to let Frieza kill Krillan. This puts an interesting twist on it, because now you have to manipulate the AI to do things that you normally wouldn't want them to do, preferably as quickly as possible. Another example is the Cell games. Cell will only come out to fight if Goku or Gohan are in. However, the get a 100% Z Score, Gohan has to kill five (?) Cell Juniors, who only come out if there's characters other than Goku and Gohan. So you have to bring in other characters so Gohan can kill the Cell Juniors (I think he only has to land the last Meteo attack, so if there's a quicker Meteo attack with one of the other characters it might save time and break up the monotony) then let Cell kill Goku and finally have Gohan go solo against Cell.
Chance of an encode?
Maybe this topic title should be edited to state that 1.43 is fully obsolete now?
The precedent is that if the movie can be proven to be completed before the emulator was depreciated it can be accepted. %controversy
So what shall I do to Doremi? It was proven to be in progress long before the deprecation events. The same situation as here
