Tyson's actions seem to depend on your position relatively to him. And you can affect the position he spawns at by changing the position the previous enemy in that slot despawns at: http://tasvideos.org/GameResources/NES/NinjaGaiden.html#InheritedSubPixels UPD: tyson's attack also depends on his jumping pattern, that depends on Y pixel & subpixel, subpixel is got from the previous enemy as well. EDIT: Saved 2 frames over your stage 1 + boss! Better bouncing off the last tyson. You touch him when he is jumping, and spend more time with 1.0 speed. I touch him whlie he is on the ground. This saves some of my improvement and helps to prevent additional 1-frame boost you get before hitting the door. The boss is 0.5 pixel closer to me when I enter his room, but I still couldn't hit him sooner. EDIT 2: Revised level 2. We saved overall 70 frames comparing to my first wip. Starting lvl 3. http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/3971327318803844

Okay, then, when I am in mood I will resume test run, try improving it and post here. I would use this scheme anyway, because it's better to do the whole test, then totally redo, than trying to make each level optimized instantly. Marx seems more interested in a no-damage pacifist.

The source code is available, it's a Multimedia Fusion 2 project, with a few additional extension files. All the logics are present. Will rip from there directly. http://kayin.pyoko.org/iwbtg/forums/index.php?topic=14467.0

Looks very pleasant. Played that game in 1998 or something.

Wait this still wasn't submitted? Really? EDIT: Anyone still has Kurikinton's WIP? The link is dead. I wanted to map the game.

It would depend on game complexity, for example, TASing a Genesis game is pretty similar to TASing a SNES game, while NES and 3D games are different compared to both. So I don't see benefit it trying different consoles, since complexity isn't directly related. Genres, on the contrary, can make sense. But I'd still leave only game diversity considered.

This is an official TODO page considering site code: Wiki: TODO/Coding I felt unsatisfied and made up my own list of overall ideas about everything (Wiki, File base, Forum, Submission/Publication, Judging). Please discuss mine and suggest yours. Bug reports don't count. Wiki: Feos/Ideas Note: my list ignores required manpowers, just lists concepts.

I saved 100 MB over Aktan's encode of the previous publication. This is pretty surprising. There were 2 reasons: better compression and downscaling of the widescreen cuts instead up upscaling of the main game. Normal game resolution is 320x240 (as is my encode), cuts are 512x240 (as is Aktan's one). And my encode is 43 minutes.

Next time this call is repeated add a news announcement. Might help. But seeing how an Accepted list grows in 6 items per day is annoying. Four-ish people aren't enough, especially considering runs which require several days in a row to encode.

I think it would be nice to encourage people to work on guides in other languages too. Either full guides or just articles focusing on some specific technical aspects to begin with. I'm sure a lot of newbies are hesitant to post questions about some things they don't understand because they're not confident with english (and afraid to not understand the answers given ^^).
That's how I imagine it: Each page that has translations must store them as a special kind of subpages, so that once you put [module:traslations] (which doesn't exist yet), it gives links to translations in the same fashion [module:listsubpages] works. Encouraging people to actually translate stuff is a whole different story. And it lacks official support, like putting translation on actual wiki, unless you count this: http://www.excite-webtl.jp/world/english/web/?wb_url=http://tasvideos.org/&wb_lp=ENJA&wb_dis=

Wiki: TasingGuide Goal: collect all info spread through multiple pages, overlapping each other, to one systematized guide, as was done some years ago with Wiki: EncodingGuide by sgrunt and reinstalled by me: Wiki: EncodingGuide/PublicationManual. What will hopefully be obsoleted by this guide: Wiki: TASHowTo Wiki: Guidelines Wiki: KeepingAnOpenMind Wiki: GenericTips Tools usage was moved to 2 pages: Wiki: TasingGuide/BasicTools Wiki: TasingGuide/AdvancedTools Added a page focusing on how to create art while TASing. Wiki: TasingGuide/TASArt Do not ask to remove all the Guide because you didn't like it. Suggest constructive improvements instead. Which still doesn't mean "being as sterile as possible", because TASing is not creation of something sterile, it is about creating something unique and interesting.

Will you continue? I saved 3 more frames up to the middle of your 1-1, but 2 frames were lost due to tysons difference at 1430 and then I was too far forward, so a wall double-jump at 1735 landed me right on the warrior, while doing that jump a frame later caused me to fall off the roof in the first place. I use to give up once I get such crap, but it will be pointless if you stop it too. You don't have to save trap floor frames in 1-1.

Pretty fun run. The physics engine here seems rather complex due to acceleration in 2 dimensions, which means it can be improvable by changing random pressings here and there, and TASEditor is a good tool to do it. The only thing I'd add entertainment-wise is flying in imaginary figures that segue one into another, and still gobbling up all the pipe balloons (like "incidentally").
