Currently improving my GBA Snake TAS.
Don't overdo it. Maximum score is not a vaultable goal. Also take a look at this.

The ROM may be pached but still, a full game is a full game. http://tasvideos.org/SiteRules.html

This is ridiculous. Every game I ever tas, this is exactly what happens. If you can improve it, good for you. If you can't, then I will submit it. http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/39334224996227933

I know that however I believe that the movie is still improvable. I will make a new submission later. Unless someone else does.

the run by TheRealThingy would have been accepted.
Accepted to gruefood. I will probably uncancel that run if you can't improve it. Take your time.

However no desync will occur if the 'Select' input at frame 153 is cleared
It should be cleared, otherwise the movie desyncs. Oh... TAS Editor needs to be opened, well this is awkward.

most enemies can drop an item if they are killed in the right moment. There is a 2-byte value located at C0A3 which is relative to the moment the killing blow is dealt (first frame in which the sword is visible). This value changes every non-lag frame and it is not affected by any action; however if some unknown requirements aren't met, the drop won't occur.
I got bored.

I checked the latest interim build, and it doesn't have the Play Movie bug. Please check version 1.11.7 to see if the Play Movie bug still exists.
It does. The movie system id and the loaded platform must be: null. Record a movie without opening a ROM file, first unhandled exception occurs. Then play that movie file without opening a ROM file, second unhandled exception occurs. The grayed out "Movie" menu can be accessed if the cursor is first moved to "Recent ROM", "AVI/WAV" or "Screenshot". Easy fix: ensure the disabled menu item stays disabled.
I checked it again, Movie is disabled until a ROM is loaded and the core is Not Null. This bug was fixed a while ago.
Must be dotnet related error then, whatever. Goes to update... Stupid me.
