Good stuff again, diggidoyo. It's much like the Mega Man run, except faster paced. Yes vote.

If it's slower than a published run (which has already been obsoleted, no less) then why submit it in the first place? TASVideos doesn't accept runs slower than the current record.

TASVideos usually doesn't permit the use of a cheat code, except in special circumstances which are usually discussed beforehand.

Pretty sure you could save more than 7 seconds in game with the PSX version. Every time the NES version would switch weapons would save about a second each time due to instant weapon switching. Also, I hope you used the Navi Mode for the remixed music. EDIT: The description is wrong, it's actually over 30 seconds faster in-game. Clarification here.

That wasn't unnecessary, it was to trigger a glitch which allows X to move during Byte's defeat speech, allowing him to charge up weapons and reach the door faster.

I'd love to see that; the Gaea Armor actually has extremely good striking power, because the charge shot is almost instantaneous and gives the bosses almost no invulnerability.
Gaea Armor also moves slower in general on top of not being able to use parts such as Hyper Dash, making it vastly inferior for movement. Gaea would only be used for the Rosered revisit where it's required. Granted its damage output on bosses would be pretty high, but it's still not as good as Zero's SDC (or even his Triple Slash or even Air Slash with Master Saber part) and possibly X's Nova Strike.

Those are easily disabled by clicking the speech-bubble on the video player.
Also, those aren't ads, those are comments. Anyway, very nice run mtbRc. It was clearly of high quality and very entertaining. Yes vote. Could you do a Julius (Dawn of Sorrow) or Richter (Portrait of Ruin) TAS? I'd love to see a TAS of either of those.

If using the goal sphere in Bowser's castle effectively just boots you back to the overworld, I don't really see that count as "finish the game". And any% means any amount of exits, for fastest completion time. So fewest exits wouldn't matter.

I suppose getting Gater is a bit out of the way. GateMan chip alone would require fighting an additional boss, and I don't know how easy/quick you could get Wind and Fan chips, they could take too much time for what it's worth too. The alternatives seem fairly decent and less out of the way.

Why doesn't the publication include the branch "0 star"? Isn't that what makes it distinguishable from 1, 16, and 120 star runs?
Because 0 star is essentially any% (which is rarely if ever included as a branch), 1 and 16 star categories are obsolete, and 120 stars is obviously a different category.

Isn't it possible to just find some sort of FPS (using common values like 60, 30, or whatever) which makes the game speed more or less sensible, then encode it at that rate?

By the way, how does the game decide who you fight in the secondary areas (Zero, High Max, or Dynamo)?
If you enter a secondary area and the Gate stages aren't opened yet, you fight Nightmare Zero (unless you already defeated him). If Nightmare Zero was defeated and the Gate stages still aren't opened yet, you fight High Max instead. If the Gate stages are opened, you'll fight Dynamo, and he'll always be there for the rest of the save file. (For the record, the Gate stages are opened by either defeating all eight investigators, defeating High Max or getting 3000 Nightmare Souls).

Yeah, mandating encodes will just delay submission or prevent some people from submitting entirely (leaving at best a full run in a game thread, just for it to receive little or no attention). If there's a run without encode on the workbench and you want to watch it, either just download the movie file and watch it the old traditional way (some things in that workbench list of yours are much exaggerated, PSX has no special options bar some game specific fixes (only emulator version matters, which was noted), I've never had PSX runs desync other than because of emulator version (same with DS), and most others are perfectly watchable by emu without issues), or wait for an encode because sooner or later an encode will pop in anyway.

Wow, that was fast. Seen much of the WIPs already, and it's very nice and entertaining gameplay. I won't vote until I've seen it in its entirity, but I very much doubt it'll turn into anything but a Yes.

I think you're overcomplicating the encoding process somewhat. For a simple newbie TASer (no offense intended), it's enough to just dump from the emulator using XViD or something as a codec. It easily provides a watchable AVI at a decent filesize.

The input file would only be viewable by the emulator, but you can use the emulator to dump the contents of the input file to .avi, and upload that to YouTube for everyone to see.

I noticed the download link contains a full ROM - isn't that against the rules? I'm fairly certain the ROM still contains copyrighted content.
