Although we do have 10 people who are officially entitled to encode and publish submission after they've been accepted
Well, that's the main problem as I see it. For example, nineko makes encodes (almost) always the same day someone makes a submission, but Bisqwit thinks people need the video to be 2 MB smaller, so everyone else only visiting the front page has to wait 26 months to see it.

Arguing with you here is pointless, because when you disagree, you don't try finding a reason for it, you do nothing else but blaming those you disagree with. This is no constructive behavior and you know it.
I've always been giving reasons a thousand times, even for things that are the most obvious ones for me. And you and others always say "WHY ARE YOU SAYING THAT BLA BLA BLA" and when I say why, you just ignore my reasons.
And I would rather not have to blame anyone and just be a hypocrite like everyone else, but to get better sometimes we need for other people to tell us our mistakes, or at least what they think our mistakes are.
If I didn't think this is "constructive behavior" I wouldn't be bothering to write so much in English (something really difficult for me), and I would just let this community die as I see it soon will if some things don't change.

Well, I've been complaining about that stuff for the last few months, I think... If you've read any of my posts in that period, maybe you already know what I mean; if not:
Things I hate about this website:
-Elitist judging system that motivate people to keep TASing the same 5 or so games over and over again (Zelda, Sonic, Mario, Megaman, Metroid, etc.). No one wants to waste months of his life just to see his work rejected only because the judge in turn has never played your game before and he doesn't find it entertaining. And let's not talk about waiting 65 months to see a run accepted, when it should be much faster if we didn't have this stupid elitist system with just a couple of judges.
-Bisqwit. I think he'd rather have another MTV interview for himself instead of having a community the size of YouTube. He is only worried about having the highest possible quality for anything in his website (Matthew 23:27-28). Thanks to this we only have published TASes for the most popular games, the encodes for more complex systems take years to appear on the website, the website is more static than most 1998 FrontPage sites, the community is completely separated from the real website (forum/real website... Most new people don't even know there are so many people behind those TASes), our TASes a lot of times receive more comments on sites like YouTube instead of ours, because it's much harder for a newbie to leave comments here, etc etc. And don't get me started on things I've been personally annoyed by him: it took him more than a year to accept PCSX or at least show interest, he doesn't want to accept runs with hacks in them (like that finished Resident Evil 3 TAS or Metal Gear Solid...) at least until we have pSX, his complete lack of social skill drive away any new coder, with his mostly stupid new-emulator requirements and his blunt way to criticize the work other people are doing for free to help his website; and how we have forums for Famtasia, DOSBox, Dolphin, etc... and for PCSX it took more than a year to have one. And he should be the one making the changes needed by this community to be more alive, and not just this elitist soon to be dead thing; but I guess Bisqwit really likes all this, and he's just interested in more interviews for MTV and all that.
-Most old members because of this: http://tasvideos.org/forum/p/189952#189952.

I just corrupted the main x5 pxm I have quite easily with 0.0.8 (that I can easily get back), and crashed pcsx 3 times as a result. Just loading the movie now crashes pcsx, and the header of the movie is also partially corrupt.
Uhm. That sucks.
Well, I didn't announce it here because I haven't tested this version at all. I just compiled everything I had on my hard drive and uploaded it, since I won't be working on this anymore, most probably. I had to increase the version number so people who only download the latest stable release wouldn't have that v0.0.7 crash on "Movie"->"Start Playback" anymore.
So, yeah... This version didn't get any testing from me, and I don't think I will be fixing bugs any time soon.
I mostly hate this website now. I especially hate those people who have the power to change things and never do anything at all. I rather spend my time with things that have more life or which at least I can do something to give them more life.

I don't have the source code for the input plugins, that's why they're still using the old registry entries. :P

There seems to be a rather huge bug in v0.0.8.
Loadstate, at least while playing back a movie, does absolutely nothing.
It works fine here. =/
I'm glad some people like this version... But I think this is almost exactly the same as v0.0.7. :P
Maybe it fixed some bugs because it nows uses a different registry entry for its settings, and they all have been set to default because of that...

I wanted to play the MAME versioon from Ghosts N Goblins too. Most of the conversions wasn`t really good or near on the original.
The only good version was for the PS2 in the Capcom collection. But there is no working emulator at the moment for this system.
What about the version in "Capcom Generations 2" for the PS1?

Maybe you have a wrong neogeo.zip file? Does any other Neo-Geo game work?
Metal Slug works for me, as you can see in the screenshot at this page: http://code.google.com/p/fbarr/.
Aaaaaaaaaanyway... Someone should contact the people working on FinalBurn Alpha Shuffle. It already has rerecording support from blip's patch, but it still needs "Start from Power-On" and other things. They seem to be very interested in adding "many pointless features", so someone should ask them if they can add some features for our community.

Bisqwit has said many times that he would prefer to have AVI videos with the NTSC filter on them; but we still don't have any emulator capable of doing that, I believe.
Err, I meant that dumping AVIs after they've been NTSC filter would require moving the AVI dumping call to _after_ the filter is applied, thus allowing AVIs to be dumped in 2xsai, hq2x, etc. I was not referring to the NTSC filter specifically.
I never said you didn't mean that. :P I just said the site's goal is not "unmodified output", but "output as close as the real thing as possible".
nineko wrote:
Well, allowing != forcing
Even if you move the AVI dumping routine there, the cool people will always get 1x AVI files. To be completely honest I never understood what passes through someone's mind when he decides to enable any kind of filter, if it was for me I would force any emulator to always output unfiltered stuff, but that's just me. Since people like eye candy, give them eye candy.
The NTSC filter is hardly "eye candy", it makes all look really shitty, but that's how it looked on real NTSC TVs...

I see you've added some command line options, but now I can't load roms the old way, that is: "gens sonic.gen", for example. Maybe there's some new command line option to load roms too? (I'm too lazy to look at the source code myself. :P)
Everything else looks really great, keep up the good work.

For whatever reason, sometimes the frame-by-frame-advance would skip on certain screens. When opening a movie intro, it would sometimes "auto-advance" 50-500 frames (depending on what was loading up) and then go back to paused in frame-advance mode. Sometimes when drawing something on screen (a pop-up box for example) every press of the frame-advance would jump exactly 2 frames each time until said object was completed. Is this normal?
Yeah, that's normal. Lag frames are automatically skipped because they introduced (even more) desyncs if you tried to save/load states on them.
Callmewoof wrote:
Also, after creating the movie and getting past the intial newgame screens, I stopped the recording, and went to playback my movie. Desync!! It works fine until the first 'movie gap (see above)' and that's where the desync happens.
You'll need to do a lot of trial and error to find the causes for some desyncs. Some games are better than others regarding this problem (most 3D games are more prone to desync than 2D games, for example). Using savestates on "now loading" screens or black screens will create desyncs most of the times, so try to not save/load on those.
Also, read the instructions file; it has some basic tips to prevent desyncs.
(And yes, the main problem with PCSX are desyncs. :P)

There are a couple of TAS tests of this game made by a YouTube user named hogehoge6161.
This one is my favourite:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvewJkOSJt0
After watching that video, I think this game could make a really entertaining TAS. That short replay, with that car flying throughout the whole course at light speed, is the coolest thing I've ever seen on a PS game. :P

More mysteriously, when I load up the game, any savestates that were created during my recording "failed to load". Any savestates made during normal (non-recording) playing work just fine.
Savestates made while recording/replaying a movie can only be loaded while recording/replaying that same movie.

Also, frame advance works... to a point.
You should only need to press the Pause hotkey to get back to normal speed.
Callmewoof wrote:
Heck, even . (period) doesn't pull up my frame counter like the hotkey binding says it will.
Maybe you're not using the TAS Video Plugin? You can activate it in its configuration anyway, if the hotkey doesn't work for whatever strange reason.

On top of all that, I can't get my USB gamepad to work with the game.
You can use another joypad plugin, use a program like Xpadder or Joy2key, etc etc etc.

PCSX seems to be buggy on some systems regarding CD changes. The CDR plugins don't always send the new CD-ROM ID inside the drive.

How do I set the emulator back to normal speed? It seems like once I am in frame by frame the hot key for normal 60 fps mode doesn't work. I'm stuck in frame by frame until I close the emulator.
"Pause" hotkey.

My current goal is to find the right combination of plugins to get past this crash.
Most likely setting the CPU in interpreter mode (Configuration->Options->Enable Interpreter Cpu), since the recompiler seems to crash for a lot of people... It will be much slower, though.

The "File>Movie>Start Playback" crash is a known issue, but I couldn't fix it since I can't reproduce it and when I asked for help from those who had the crash, no one really cared at all (and no, I can't magically fix something I cannot even reproduce, I'm not even a fake coder).
You can try one of my latest builds, since I tend to rewrite everything every time I learn something new in C: v007test5.7z. But I have no clue if it will fix/break anything...

Er... Yeah, a log like "FRAME_NUMBER: Play track 2" would be useful, and more precise. I can't think of another way to add 100% precise CDDA music.
Anyway, here's my not-so-accurate try if you want to use it: http://rapidshare.com/files/197876507/pcsx.mp3

Amazing music; but why do the voices sound so funny? :o)
It's great to see more progress. Are you compiling in Linux or...? I remember I tried once to compile Mednafen in Windows, but I couldn't find some of the required libraries...
Also, I'll probably try to help you at some point, but I need to finish some projects first, before I start getting into other ones. It's kind of depressing to have so many unfinished projects floating around.

I had a lot of trouble recording the music (it doesn't get decoded by any part of PCSX, but by Windows' Sound Mixer...), but I was finally able to record it externally and make it sync with the rest of the video. :)
But... I forgot about how big the final video would become (~200 MB), and this is a major problem for my crappy Internet connection. I had already uploaded most of the file into Archive.org, but I got disconnected from the server and then I couldn't resume it, since the file wasn't on the FTP server anymore somehow. And it takes around 7 hours to upload 200 MB on my connection. :P
So, I hope someone else will encode it, because I don't know when/if I'll be able to upload my file.
Anyway, the run was great! It really is a good game, especially for a TAS, since it never gets too repetitive and the visuals are beautiful (it looks like a good SNES game); also, the minigames were really entertaining and diverse, I'm glad you decided to play them. I really enjoyed the whole movie, good job.

I'll leave it capturing before I go to bed and hopefully there will be a full encode for tomorrow when I wake up. I'll watch it then too, I'm too sleepy now.
I'm not having any desyncs as far as I tried, which probably is not such a good thing for this game. :P And what's even better, music seems to work if I use SaPu's CD-ROM Plugin! Which probably is not a good thing either, but it's probably better than complete silence.
Anyway, you'll all have to wait for my encode of this awesome game until tomorrow (if everything goes well)...
