Easy way to find pointers is to find the address once, save state, then do whatever to make the address change, then find it again, and save state again. From there, search for 4 byte value > 0x80000000, load the other save state, then filter by changed by the difference between the two addresses.

…What the fuck are you saying? The extra gameplay does count against you. The fastest version is the one with the fastest gameplay. Text isn’t considered to be any faster in terms of obsoletion.
Yes, and the extra gameplay also won't count against you. If you switch to a version which saves time overall because it has less text, but also has longer gameplay, it will still obsolete the previous one, given that it is better regardless of those version differences.
If there was a game with 2 versions, one that could be beaten in 10 minutes of gameplay with no text, and one that took 2 minutes of gameplay, and 6 hours of text, the first one would be preferred. I think you will have a hard time finding people to argue otherwise.

I'm going to start working on this again. This is a game that has so many new improvements, and I simply can't just ignore this game anymore. Seeing as how I'm now in high school, progress may be slowed a bit, but let me promise that it will be worth the wait. (I'll also be testing the Japanese version in comparison to the US version to see how much time is saved from text and if flurrie superslide time savers, which don't work the same in Jap, can still be done)
Text isn’t taken into consideration when obsoleting movies. If the actual gameplay is slower, absolutely do not use it. If it’s the same though it’s your choice whether you wanna go Japanese or not.

euRGB does have some affect on ntsc games i don't really know how it why, but i have observed it causing desyncs.
You definitely need the copyrighted dsp dumps, do NOT use the ones that are included with dolphin.

RachelB, you edited your first post back in 2013-01-07. I wonder if your information needs an update or is it current?
Um, only change would be with hle, which i think should be okay for all games not on this list, but don't get mad at me if you use hle and then there's some problem.

Does it sync up at the latest revision? I don't recall any major overhauls in emulation for gamecube.
Uh...? There's 0 chance any movie made on 4.0 will sync on latest. It doesn't take a major overhaul, any change at all can do it, and there has been many.

I wonder what's causing all the desyncs; it bothers me, especially since stuff like Netplay syncs up. I'd guess more variables and such aren't being savestated properly, but I have no idea what.
Yes it's a save state problem. Without save states it syncs perfectly.
