This is a partial resync of theaxemanv4-finalfantasy.fm2 from [2079] NES Final Fantasy by TheAxeMan in 1:09:57.70 to BizHawk 2.10. Apart from a straightforward import of the .fm2, it adds 1 blank frame after the Reset on frame 57793. It gets through three Reset inputs. It desyncs around frame 59946, in the Dwarf Cave, when an NPC walks south instead of west.
This is theaxemanv4-finalfantasy.resync.bk2 at commit c13efc5748a76408d9e2282863487a16c86d4fe6 in the git repository at https://www.bamsoftware.com/git/ff1.git.

Lua script that plays Kwirk "Heading Out? all floors" from beginning to end. This is the same script that was used for [6203] GB Kwirk "Heading Out?, all floors" by Sand in 25:15.19, with some additional comments and edits for clarity. The reason for posting this is to demonstrate the savestate manipulation support code included in the script (from BASE_SAVESTATE to earliest_effective_frame). See Forum/Topics/25755.
This is tas.lua in the Git repository at https://www.bamsoftware.com/git/kwirk.git at commit ef2355417be15e9473ff6d776a3e85247f58db5f.

This is a demonstration of entering the crooked house 3 cycles faster, by going to the top part of the door signal line, rather than the bottom. The gain of 3 cycles is later absorbed into some framerules, so it does not save time overall. See Forum/Posts/519985.
