What you mention is easily cured by the workflow itself. But the workflow just doesn't work at all. It crashes.

Resync for this game doesn't work.

I'm seeing you're also working on a USA version, N?K, right? Would you want a movie replacement? What are you plans overall?

The game divides the ending into 2 parts: credits where the gameplay ends, and the ending screen itself. The devs decided to separate them by an automated cutscene. This cutscene appears to be glitched and doesn't lead to the ending screen. But that doesn't mean the gameplay is still running, right? We alow such amount of glitchiness. However this particular game has a special situation, since it divides the ending. But I still think that we shouldn't insist on reaching the ending 100% true to the normal one. As I said, the game tries to run the ending, but fails to do it equally to normal. Gameplay still reaches the end.

Поддерживаю выбор игры! А по тасэдитору, вскоре аделикат начнет доделывать тастудию бизхока до вменяемой среды, так что пока поделай тестовые тасы, покопай инфу, а потом уже и пошлифовать можешь.

Figured it out. Configuration -> CD-ROM must have a blank "Select ISO" field. Thanks Spikestuff.

That's all I see. As I press OK, it says Incorrect Disc and resumes the movie, while the game is paused.

Yes, and then what exactly should I do? If I click OK on the pop-up message, it just resumes the movie after "hang on a second".

How do I "go" there if the game is running?

I know, but since an any% of a "glitchless"/warpless TAS for certain bad games would most likely be rejected (due to being unvaultable and also boring), does it really need that branch? Because it led me to thinking there's a warpless TAS of it at first glance and could potentially mislead other viewers as well.
Finally I can answer it. The guideline says "if there are counterpart runs". So, if some "warp glitch" run is in vault, it can go unlabeled, if it's the only existing run for that game. But it as well might be labeled, just to be consistent with another guideline about being common :)

Then why in the video the guy passes that obstacle your guys doesn't? Also, do you confirm that the scene after the credits roll is different from normal?

The game did end, but it seems to have some post-completion crap afterwards too. Does the player have control during that or not? The scene there is different between the normal play and the run. In the run, it starts from here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP6hCY4dqBE#t=1468
and the character is just stuck before the obstacle.
The point is, the game is not required to act exactly as normal after a glitched ending. It must run basic routines, but some of them can be internally glitched too, like trying to save, but having some corrupted variables that don't let it save. So it runs them, but they are glitched: after the credits we see something is broken, but it does happen.

Now, is this run a "game end glitch"?

No damage is boring as hell for most games where it can save time.

Guys, both ending types are valid and up to the author. We had a huge discussion about it, and people halved. Neither is better, both are good.
It's just, "we want to avoid meaningless publications". If this particular run is proven to be a "significant improvement", no problem, obsoletion can happen. But we must figure out how to handle such cases in future, to not let the rules have holes.
Maybe the statement for these should be "I consider it a significant improvement, even though time-wise the very run is exactly the same, and want it published". Because we need to make sure that you realize that it in no way is a time improvement, if someone adds a few presses to run the ending earlier. If this is understood, and the new run still feels way better, then we should obsolete.

If we suddenly start considering this run an improvement, then I have a question: what exactly prevented doing so in the initial submission? If nothing, then there's no point in "obsoleting" it. Otherwise I can make 100 submissions of a single game with slightly edited endings, each of which would be "more entertaining". And I'm not even mentioning what Masterjun can do to abuse such an approach.
This isn't just a slight improvement. It's about 25% more entertaining (per minute) than the published movie. And it's moon tier, which means that sort of speed-entertainment tradeoff is a good thing.
I know, and I agree that it looks way better, but still, why not do it in the first place?

That said, I don't think any rule should be hard and fast, especially on a site whose goal is more or less entertainment.
In US law for instance, Judges can throw out a case that fits the letter but not the spirit of a law, like the incident where Buzz Aldrin hauls off and decks a conspiracy theorist for harassing him. To the letter of the law, Aldrin commits assault, but in the spirit of the law, the level of harassment and clear intent to sue or prosecute Aldrin showed in the video (he was recorded asking the cameraperson "did you get that?") went against the spirit of the law; To protect citizens from a violent threat.
In the same vein, I think it'd probably be best to defer to input time with exception for situations like Magician Lord, where a few frames saved adds a significant amount of time to the realtime.
We are trying to have rules that match the spirit of TASing and all, but we also need rules that won't be abused if someone decides to take the work. My example above wasn't resolved.

I chose the early clearable simply version.
If it is not USA Version and will not Accept, it will remake there.
I think there's no need to redo anything. Especially if the only difference is damage. I'd also clear the branch name, because it's default, and there are no counterpart runs on other difficulties.
