Hey. i want to TAS with TAStudio but as soon as I want to open any .tasproj files or save them, TAStudio crash. I have BizHawk 2.3. The error is in french and I will try to translate it. An exeption happened in a composant of your application. If you click on "Continue', your application will ignore this error and try to continue. '-10' is not a valid number for 'LargeChange'. 'Large Change' needs to be superior or *this stop here* And after this there is a huge text which I can translate if you want. Help me please, I want to tas again but everytime I try, nothing works x)

Works on my end. Do you have some weird DPI settings? Judging by destroyed windows for markers and branches, you do. See this ticket: https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk/issues/1151

For now there's no workaround for this other than reseting your DPI to 100%. But I dunno how it works on win10, which is the only OS this thing happens on.

On the latest interim build, do the following: 1. Open a gba game. 2. Start TAStudios 3. Let it play for a while. (Don't need to let the game start, but if you do, it's more noticeable) 4. Under markers, click on the 0th frame with the title "Power on". The emulator will now show a white screen, while lagging every single frame forever. Edit: Additionally, using the "State History Integrity Check" will give: "Bad data between frames 0 and 8", even if you cleared state history.

So I have been trying to help some lsnes users get accustomed to working with BizHawk, and they have issues with how TAStudio works compared to lsnes's movie editor. So I'm wondering if there's ways to make TAStudio run as similar to lsnes as possible, so lsnes users will have an easier time using BizHawk?

Just for the sake of it. I'd like the reverse guide of that. Also if you weren't accustomed to the original (TASEditor) then boy you're in for a treat if you dove head first.

Could you be more specific? What are the features of TAStudio that you need to make more lsnes-like?
my personal page - my YouTube channel - my GitHub - my Discord: thunderaxe31 <Masterjun> if you look at the "NES" in a weird angle, it actually clearly says "GBA"

EZ basically is referring to the problem that some of us are having when using savestates in the same manner as lsnes, but within bizhawk's TAS Studio. I like lsnes because it doesn't automatically save the state you are in while TASing. In Bizhawk, when you create a savestate (which is redundant in bizhawk, since the tasing tool saves state information to the project file automatically...where all the necessary information to keep track of conditions before and after the current frame). lsnes doesn't do this, which is fine. Creating a savestate in bizhawk works fine, but when you recall one of these savestates...it overwrites previous inputs past the frame where the savestate was created. lsnes, of course, lets you manually manage the savestates so that the automatic process of session information is avoided...leaving a more freer environment and far less crashes. The concept of handling this in Bizhawk is unique, but it crashes a lot with me. As with lsnes, I rarely have had a crash. When it does crash...I've usually put myself in the a situation and caused it myself.
I recently discovered that if you haven't reached a level of frustration with TASing any game, then you haven't done your due diligence. ---- SOYZA: Are you playing a game? NYMX: I'm not playing a game, I'm TASing. SOYZA: Oh...so its not a game...Its for real? ---- Anybody got a Quantum computer I can borrow for 20 minutes? Nevermind...eien's 64 core machine will do. :) ---- BOTing will be the end of all games. --NYMX

FCEUX's taseditor has an option to enforce trimming the movie upon loading a state. Config -> Branches restore entire Movie http://www.fceux.com/web/help/taseditor/index.html?ProgramCustomization.html Please try it and tell if it helps, I can implement it in tastudio easily. As for crashes, grab the latest dev build, and always report all the crashes you're getting: steps to reproduce and stack trace. With no reports, how would they go away, right?

Hi, so i've tried tasing for a while now and i realized that after a while when i want to go back a few frames to change some inputs that tastudio starts seeking from the start of the movie again. Is there any known way of fixing this issue? It's really annoying especially since it happens so often and and it's also annoying when i have to rewatch 30+ minutes almost every time i want to go a few frames back. Especially when the tas is going to be aproximately 3 hours long. (Game: Terranigma SNES) I would really appreciate any help i could get to fix this issue. Thank you, Denis

What system then? The usual method to force savestate preservation is to set a marker right after a state, then upon greenzone decay it won't be dropped. But for systems like N64 or PSX you'll quickly run out of capacity if you preserve too many states that way. So go to Metadata - State history settings, and set mem capacity to something higher, and/or decrease state gap divider.

for some reason, trying to load any movie on gambette with TAStudio will instantly crash bizhawk. what's frustrating is it doesnt tell you if it stopped working or even gives you a debug screen, it just straight up closes itself. Link to video Edit: should note that I'm using bizhawk 2.2.1, and this issue has only started happening a few days ago.

Don’t use 2.2.1 it’s bugged. Use 2.3 for Gambatte , it has numerous improvements .

Done. It truncates upon branch load only in Rec mode though, as read-only state-load isn't supposed to truncate it.

Does this still happen?
