IPS patches for hacked games (except Street Fighter II: Rainbow Edition) can be downloaded here: http://tasvideos-moviefiles.googlecode.com/files/ips%2Bpatcher.zip . Lunar IPS patching program is included.
Please excuse my ignorance on the matter, but does a RAM state containing only zeroes must be proven possible on a given console now before submitting a run with this property? I realize that this is probably true for most computers by waiting long enough on a power off state, but I don't think it's true for the general case. If my fear is justified, it would put the validity of most published movies into question.
I'm also very fortunate to have a local collector who has almost 700 NES games, although I can't meet up with him all that often so we'd want to batch them up.
For a first-pass it may make sense to get a flash cart which will admittedly be using fake mappers but will otherwise exercise the console properly and will allow testing any game loaded on it without physical interaction.
Is it acceptable to make and submit movies with this setting enabled?
I am still curious about Gen+GX though.
So you're wasting time and getting inferior output just to get that stupid melt? Ok, have fun.
