Planescape: Torment is always worth a playthrough.
The Persona series could be interesting as well. Persona 3 has random generated dungeons and all that stuff. Defiently worth getting.
Planetscape: Torment as Neophos or Baldur's Gate series (1&2 + expansions for both). They are quite alike, so if you like one, you'll definitely like the other too. Both are great free RPG games, with the D&D engine as base.

Remember though - no one here actually make the emulators, coders only make the re-recording versions. So I think you'll have to take this elsewhere to get it through.
For that matter, I'd imagine the idea is impossible. As far as I know, all emulators emulate their respective game system in different ways. They do this because they have to; no game system work exactly the same way, now do they?

I didn't like this movie. I am by no means an elitist that can never tolerate any entertainment tradeoffs, but this was a bit too much I think. That and the fact that not many of the stunts done actually amused me. Obviously this is a case of my humour not being the same as of the authors.

I tested not taking damage in each area and it very much is slower to do so, I reckon its 15-20 seconds faster overall to take damage than to not take it.
I don't care if it's slower, damage is really really annoying to watch in quackshot and this movie would be much more entertaining if you took no damage than the way it currently is.
Here we go, speed vs. entertainment argument again.

Good job. I myself had an attempt at running this game, but I had no luck at reducing lag, so I gave up. Anyway in this run you did basically everything better than speezafer's and it looks terrific.
But there's one thing I thought of... It is possible to suck in both stars generated from Dedede's jump in his battle, doing 'double' damage. Why didn't you take advantage of this?
Anyway I will give this a yes, good work.

Brilliant job on FC. Really terrific. I also like how you do much more similar laps in this version. It keeps the movie looking consistent, and in the end, much better overall.

Do what Randil said, but don't forget to try different sizes of an adress (2-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit) and also try signed values if you can't find and unsigned ones. At times when you are moving back on the level, the speed goes negative which only signed values can handle.

One thing that greatly increased my download speed was this: Options -> Preferences -> BitTorrent -> Protocol Encryption -> Outgoing -> Pick Forced.
Might not be the same on your client (I use utorrent).

Wait a minute. You said you played your 19.2 movie in 19.3. But did you try playing your 19.3 movie in 19.2? I don't remember if 19.3 changed the timing, but if it did, then maybe there was some backwards compatibility put into 19.3 so you can still play old movies in "19.2 mode". So if you can't get your version 19.3 movie to play in version 19.2, then that probably means there was a timing change, and if that's the case, why not do it in version 20 instead?
On the other hand, if the 19.3 movie DOES work in 19.2, then maybe you should try just waiting out some of those 20 frames before the battle on the basis that saving time messed it up somehow.
The 19.3 movie lags in 19.2 too. I don't remember any timing change either, so it must have something to do with saving time somewhere else. :> Kind of sucks, doesn't it?

Looks like you keep improving by a lot, that's great! I must however point out that doing a 100% run is incredibly boring. Why not aim for beating Wizpig as fast as possible? I think that'd be much more entertaining than watching all levels three times over.

That new SDA run was brilliant, not far off a TAS if you ask me. He was really good at activating infinite sword and supersliding.
Although saying that, I bet he had like 200 failed attempts.
Considering YautjaElder had 800 attempts at one single segment (out of what, 63?), I bet he had lots more than 200. ;) In my own opinion, a very impressive run, featuring tricks I wasn't even aware of. And in realtime at that.

okaygo, fact however remains that at the time of creating this movie, there was no other way to do it. Were we supposed to wait for you to come and salvate us before Mukki was allowed to start the run? Now there is a legit way to start a run, and that's great, but as already said, at the time this oppritunity did not exist, and as such it is a very bad reason for voting no.
