So, I'm gonna make the first Vectrex TAS to be submitted to TASVideos. It's gonna be a demonstrational TAS of Mine Storm II, aiming to beat level 1 as fast as POSSIBLE!

Spoilers: It'll be rejected for not completing the game or not reaching the loop point with your goal in mind. Please read over why you were rejected in the first place on your first submission and use the User Movies instead of making a submission.

Yeah, I don't think I can do it. The filesize is too big.

I'm assuming you're using TAStudio. You can shrink the filesize by converting to bk2. File > Export to bk2.

A 10 minute bk2 is only about 50KB, which is fairly small.

[16:08:10] <BenLubar> a TAS is just the limit of a segmented speedrun as the segment length approaches zero

Then why were you're able to create a submission (albeit a single level) with BizHawk? bk2 files can bring down a tasproj file from a gigabyte (or more) to kilobytes when using the convert function so you saying "it's too big" raises some questions. To me it sounds as if you don't want to actually showcase your work at all. You can always provide an upload to Google Storage or Mega for someone to convert it down for you proper if you actually are concern for what should be a small filesize to begin with when using that function.
