I am about to start my first actual attempt at creating a TAS, before I get started I'd like to ask a couple pointers about the conventions when it comes TASes in general.
The game I am about to TAS is Loaded from the PS1. There are a number of options in the (wouldn't you know it?) Options menu.
Difficulty ranges in 5 steps from Players Are Fairies to Players are Loaded.
You can start the game with anywhere between 1 and 5 lives.
You can also start the game with anywhere between 1 and 5 continues.
This effectively means for this game you can have just about anywhere between 2 and 25 lives for the whole game.
Since TASes are supposed to show supernatural inhuman skill my gut tells me I should run with the hardest difficulty with minimum lives and minimum continues.
What's the general consensus about this sort of thing?
