Use the GC Memory Card Manger. I think it's under tools.

http://www.ehow.com/how_10030358_use-data-sets-vbnet.html Looks like Data sets is the winner. Data sets behave like a database but doesn't require overly complicated SQL connections.

After reading the discussions, I realized that PCs could and DO have is problem as well. When a variable is declared (use X Bytes) in assembly but is not Initialized (Zeroed), any usage of that variable, is totally unknown. Who knows what is in that memory area? It could be ANYTHING. All Zero, all One, or any random bytes. If you attempt to use those bytes before you zero it out, god knows what happens. The best (and probably most unlikely solution) is that nothing bad happens. The worst, the program gives some really bad results. What's happening here, could also be quite possible. The game is not properly zeroing out it's register (which is an instruction, if I am remember correctly) which is an assembly no-no.

I have a lot of images on my computer. What I wanted to do is tag the images and then have a program that will allow me to filter through the tags, and choose images based on the tags I choose. I would be using a List Check Box for the tag(s) I want. But, I can't seem to figure out a clean method that will allow me to setup a list of tags and what file(s) they apply to inside my program. I wanted a database but the Field for the tags would be awkward to parse, I think. How do sites that use tags for images, accomplish this?

I am glad it's ready. I didn't expect to get a special thanks. I want to thank everyone who added all that good stuff to the Wiki. So much information!

I don't think you can control the other character if they are not in same room, I think. I know they can be attacked if left alone and will not be able to change the room they are in.

I did some checking and yes. This while accurate, it's not TAS compatible. The Input when played back, just acts as a Stream. Input doesn't care where it goes, it just goes whenever it can. Well, that answers that.

http://aamirm.hacking-cult.org/www/regen.html I don't know what the official rule or method or procedure is to allowing/accepting/vetting a new emulator. I would like to know if anyone has tested it before and what is the consensus on this. It has Frame Advance and Input Recording. It does do a lot of games accurately (see History.txt) over Gens which is a postive but tools that are Gens only (Camhack for Sonic) will probably not be usable anymore.

I will miss the Spankety Spankety letter to Red Swirl Battle to "The End?" but the technical side is good stuff. Entertainment is not.

After trying something like this in GX (casual), I realize it's NOT easy to do something like this.

Again,
Puyo Puyo (and Dr. Robonick's Mean Bean Machine and Kirby's Avalanche) do NOT have the offset mechanic. What that means is that an attack from the opponent or your own attack, can be countered if you remove (pop) Puyos. Puyo Puyo 2 (Tsu) and any Puyo game after, have this mechanic.
Puyo Puyo, Dr. Robonick's Mean Bean Machine and Kirby's Avalanche are NOT the same as Puyo Puyo 2.

This is a separate topic since it applies to both games. This only applies if someone wanted to 100% these games. Since Dolphin can emulate a GBA or connect to an emulator, would it be better to have the Chao on the GBA (tiny Chao garden) and raise it that way? The benefit is that you don't have to waste time raising the Chao in game and instead raise the Chao on the GBA while still playing the main game. Would raising a Chao outside of the main game (can be done via GC ROM transfer (will give Tiny Chao Garden) or by Sonic Advance 1/2), be accepted? The idea is to have two separate emulators doing something that will come together eventually. Meta Emulation!

Aside from the Chao raising, what would be the "bad" part of a 100% run for SA:DX?

Since someone brought up Puyo Puyo, I have to say this, Puyo Puyo (and Dr. Robonick's Mean Bean Machine and Kirby's Avalanche) do NOT have the offset mechanic. What that means is that an attack from the opponent or your own attack, can be countered if you remove (pop) Puyos. Puyo Puyo 2 (Tsu) and any Puyo game after, have this mechanic. Though, 15th and 20th anniversary has a mode where you play classic Puyo Puyo with out the offset rules. Puyo Puyo Fever and any Puyo game after, has the Fever mechanic. Which uses the offsets you and your opponent do to give time and adds to the Fever counter. So Puyo Puyo, Dr. Robonick's Mean Bean Machine and Kirby's Avalanche are basically the same game. Puyo Puyo 2 is a separate game. The question is, would Puyo Puyo 2, Puyo Puyo Sun (3) and Puyo Puyo 4 be considered the same game? Puyo Puyo Fever is different from Puyo Puyo Fever 2. 15th anniversary and 20th anniversary are basically the same. Puyo Puyo 7 is a different game as well.

So, how bad will Tails's story be broken? I know it's problematic already but I want to see a TAS that destroys it. Also, Twinkle park, was the YES. Nothing I have seen was so abusive of a game's design.

TAS uses should be aware of this:
Update: a few hours after release, a bug causing crashes with Windows x64 and Single Core mode was found by testers. Single Core mode is not used for regular gameplay but is usually required for TAS and NetPlay. While it only affects a few specific use cases of the emulator, we still consider this a critical issue and we will release a Dolphin 4.0.1 version fixing this bug. Sorry for the inconvenience.

DotA2 has replay (demo) recording built into the engine. So desyncs don't exist (if there's no major engine/game changes), but we are talking about a game that is constantly being updated/tweaked/changed.

If I remember correctly, Source Engine games (DotA2 is one of them) can be used to make "TAS" like playthroughs. Though, DotA2 is more restrictive on things then HL2 is. DotA2 does have cheats (Which would probably be necessary). This will be a very helpful thing: http://wiki.sourceruns.org/wiki/Host_timescale No, I don't know much about running, just how to find stuff sometimes.
