Great, I'm waiting for this movie been published. You guys find a new way to use double standart and accept DK3.

Stop your useless infinite accusations. We already established that you fail to comprehend actual explanations. You just don't care and want to use any reason to pretend we're doing something wrong. But you can't, because we have valid reasons you somehow repeatedly miss. There is no double standard, stop repeating that.

If that movie is entertaining enough to be in Moons, it will be accepted. Read my judgment if you still don't know why.

Now that this is apparently accepted to the site, I wonder would it be allowed to obsolete some movies done on Windows with the Linux ports (if exists)?

As always, only if the ports are deliberately and vastly similar.

I'll see if Masterjun feels like improving even more, and if you will come up with yet more improvements.

Well you mentioned you're still working on opengl, so when you have problems with it again, just know that you don't have to struggle with them alone.

r57shell has some knowledge of opengl. I saw you questions on IRC, and he shared some ideas, but I couldn't catch you there live. He's occasionally on IRC, but you can try forum PM too.

Note that for future purposes, testing this workflow is still encouraged.

It means when it works stably in libtas, it may be allowed, so just do tests and report bugs.

What I'm asking is, if that glitch is applied to the old movie, will it work and save time? At least a single frame?

So what is even the type of gameplay that's been improved? ThunderAxe31 said this game has no randomness, and you imply that as far as gameplay physics are concerned, it's just a resync. So what is it then? ACE setup itself?

So what's NK's plan with this submission? We can't use a real world image for it, even if we clean it up. The extra image must be generated from scratch, so we don't depend on real world CDs.

Right, which is why I want to actually ensure this is just an arbitrary password option, rather than proper internal mode.

My take on that is that it's not a fastest completion branch, but a demonstration. For the purpose of this concept demo, it might make sense to stop DK3 before the layout loops, because it fits how the other games are played, and it's the only way to make DK3 playthrough look reasonably comparable to the rest. But I may ask opinions of others on this exception.

If there was an easier in-game difficulty that would maximize your health, it would also be a valid option to choose that. However this is just a guideline anyway. The actual problem is the very fact that you basically hard-code your HP to minimum through a password. Since the game stores progress in passwords, rather than unlocks special features, it can't count as unlocking this pre-existing difficulty mode which doesn't seem to exist.

Even then, if all this "difficulty" does is lowering your HP, for such cases it's advised to use easiest:

Good reasons to use easier difficulties are:
More health for damage boosts

And indeed, the current publication Takes damage to save time.
