How many people are working on this?
I'm guessing PCSX crashes early on thats why I haven't seen any WIP yet.

The gamefaqs guide is helpful, but there are many, many things skippable when you have TAS abilites. Plus a perfect 100% item run isn't our goal.
The current SDA run is at 8:32. No FMV skips.

With FMV skips.

I'm working on researching these exact things along a timeline:
1. Gil to pick up in the field
2. Items to pick up in the field
3. Items to steal
4. Items to buy
5. Abilities to learn
6. Items to synthesize
7. Equipment to wear for each boss
8. Active party selection
Precision is what its about after all...
Its probably not a plugin issue (the freeze/crash)
You can try to setup hotkey for hacks (patchs) and try them just before the crash occur, with a little luck, it will get past that point

Most likely setting the CPU in interpreter mode (Configuration->Options->Enable Interpreter Cpu), since the recompiler seems to crash for a lot of people... It will be much slower, though.
Thanks for the replies.
Appreciate the hard work mz. I wish you had a more stable/compatible emu to work with :(
I got a few frames further in interpreter mode and trying some of the hacks.
This time the emulator froze on this screen instead of completely closing.
I was thinking of making a savegame past this point with a different emulator. But you need to use arts for every fight which means I couldn't even record one boss fight. Sort of makes the run pointless...
I'm having trouble figuring out how to RErecord something. What I'm doing just overwrites my movie file and all my hard work is lost. The only other way i can figure out what to do is enable "pause after playback" and then record from a new file.
Is playback from any point available? It seems if i wanted to just record a portion of the game, after i play the movie file the movie starts from the beginning. It's really annoying when i want to rerecord from that point after i closed the program or want to go back to it if i find something new to add in at that point in the game( i have to watch the whole gameplay from the beginning and then start rerecording from that point.)
Hey someone has the same question as me!
There is hope.
Up to the Tetsu fight
Crashes when "New Art" appears on the screen when using an art for the first time.
Maybe normal PCSX doesnt get past this part either.
I'm guessing its my choice of plugins.

When I follow the .kkapture guide and run it I get the error "Could not load GPU plugin gpuPeopsSoft.dll".
How do I continue to add to a pxm file after I've restarted the emulator?
How do I set the emulator back to normal speed? It seems like once I am in frame by frame the hot key for normal 60 fps mode doesn't work. I'm stuck in frame by frame until I close the emulator.
Rerecording 0.0.7
1. TAS Graphics Plugin 0.2 (640x480 windowed + defaults)
2. No Sound 0.4
3. Segu Direct Pad Pro Driver 0.4
4. Linuzappz Iso Cdr Driver 1.4
5. SCPH1001.bin
My current goal is to find the right combination of plugins to get past this crash.
