Something I don't understand that puts a spanner in the works. I understand why when I record an NTSC or JAP game it should be 480p but why is the PAL version recording at 480p when I dump frames? I did not even use the B option. It looks like Dolphin is forcing it automatically. If it was using the true PAL resolution when dumping it should state 720x576 to me but it's not.
Edit - Dolphin is also forcing PAL to 30fps when it should be 25fps.
-I doubt there's an input plugin for dolphin, which is essential for optimizing 3D games.
-You haven't yet cracked the RNG, meaning getting a ganado to drop a grenade is a complete and very futile guessing game. I doubt dolphin has a functional RAM search, but if it does then you can ignore this point.
I actually quite like this one. Glitchy, lots going on.
And ofcourse I also like the one where you see the turtle from OOB with the bomb in front of it's head. But sees not many other people do.
Still Link backflipping with bombchu in the FF is also pretty.
I really could go for any one of these 3.
But in the end it's your decision Grunz, and you got to make it. ;)
Oh and finally edit that submission text. :pThe rules should be clear. The PAL60 information will be added there. However, what I'm trying to say is it doesn't really matter since NTSC-U versions are still preferable regardless. I mean, even if you put the PAL60 information there, the person in question would still need to come here and defend their choice of version if they're doing it on PAL60 instead of NTSC-U.
Only games produced for NTSC regions will directly support this mode. Although PAL editions of the DOL-001 hardware were produced, the games themselves only support PAL (576i) or PAL60 (480i). As such, those featured in this list all refer to the NTSC region versions released in either the United States or Japan. Provided that all other pre-requisites are satisfied, some NTSC titles may be used on PAL hardware in 480p mode but, due to region locking, this requires the use of either a software loader (such as the Datel Freeloader) or a modchip.

As far as I know all MM texture packs are far from being complete. So it would look really spotty. Furtermore I don't think you can apply them with Jabo 1.6 and that is the only graphics plugin that will sync this TAS.
@Aktan
For the love of god, could you please take out the sentence, about needing Anti DS mupen, to play back this TAS, out of the submission text before you publish this?
You could replace it with "if you have a maoras mask save in mupens save folder you have to delete it before watching this movie." though.It's not really confusing because PAL and PAL60 are two different output standards. :) The rules just don't include the latter yet.
Encouraging hacks? I'm not sure what you mean. We allow hacks more openly now.
Do not use fan-translations or otherwise hacked ROMs ― translators do not want you to use obsolete versions and we prefer non-hacked games.
If it exists, use the (U) version of a ROM unless there is a good reason not to (as an example a shortcut/trick which only works in a different version, or superior music).
If you are running a NTSC game (U or J), you must set your emulator to record in NTSC mode. Likewise, if you are running a PAL game (E), you must record your movie in PAL mode. Any other setting will get your movie promptly rejected. Note that such settings are enabled automatically in most emulators, but it's better to check before you start recording. If you are obsoleting a movie that was recorded with the wrong settings, that movie's completion time will be increased 20% when comparing them to adjust for the fact that PAL games run at 50 Hz and NTSC at 60 Hz.
PAL60 is native to the GC. TASvideos won't accept speed hacks but that is not the case with GC. Also PAL50 won't run any slower. That is a thing of old consoles. Games from the GC generation and after will run at the same speed, just refresh frames a little slower. It's just a visual thing. But with PAL60 you have better visuals than with NTSC. I really don't know enough about the game to say if there are tricks missing for J version. Though TASvideos tends to reject TASes if they were played on J just for faster text speed. The game being easier is a reason not to TAS it on that version, btw. A TAS should make something hard look easy, to surprise. But I don't know if you are planning to submit. If not there shouldn't be a problem...
Actually (and I thank you all for the recommendations), I originally made this video a year or so ago, and I had a very helpful viewer lend me his NES with the CopyNES board on it. I wound up dumping the ROM and the results were somewhat interesting… I think I owe it to everyone who’s been so helpful to do a follow-up video to this one.
Just use Flash for the animation, it is both widely supported and supports the normal rgb colorspace.
what about the Snowhead BK skip, when link is jumping towards the loading zone?
Frame 111110:
I think these two show off very well that Link is hopping on invisible ground. I actually think the picture composition in the second one is better. The first one shows the shadow under Link better...
otherwise I still kinda like GBT BK skip, even if people might not gt it.
and this one is pretty:

Actually has more "3 days" in it than Grunz did. XD
