Committed the column name shortcuts, update. For float controls defaults, check what those are in regular movie. If they're not what you want, request this fix in the main thread. Single-click should be doable.

^ Looks like the WIP isn't happening? Just found this by observing my judgments.

Do these column names look good? Also, some other platforms suffering from this maybe? https://yadi.sk/d/aJV0Rn7cyH6P4

Also, for whatever reason, in the game Rockman Dash 2 - Episode 2 - Ooinaru Isan (Japan), red frames are the inputs frames and green frames are lag frames(30fps). Is there any potential workaround for this to be able to use the hide lag frames and hide waslag frames options?

There's a lua way to tell the emu what frames are lag and what are not. emu.setislagged() - pass no parameters, or true, to set lag, false to clear lag flag. To determine where there actually was ingame lag, you'll have to do some ram searching. Example of a script that sets lag flag by itself: http://pastebin.com/pT0hbSXN (line 113)

Quick update: What's only left to do is figuring out the best youtuber qp Corey can upload without losing quality. Quality comparisons were already done. The HD encode will be in 4K.

Yeah, speed modifiers won't matter after you hit the CPU cap. So when attempting to speed the emu up, you should be referring to the FPS display.

I'd also remind that we've been relying on not-proven-to-be-possible initial RAM state for NES for years (and will be, for FCEUX runs).

Hi. If i play Crash Bandicoot 1 my game is crashing some time. I use Bizhawk version 1.11.6, because new versions are pretty bad. Any help ?

How is that related to tastudio, and why not the latest version?

I wonder what would be the actual difference between "Forgoes time-saving glitches" and "Contains speed/entertainment tradeoffs" here. It should definitely have the latter, but does it explicitly need the former? http://tasvideos.org/MovieClassGuidelines.html#ForgoesTimeSavingGlitches Looks like it's used when it defines a branch?

Try places where it writes to Xbuf. And obviously where it blits things too (vidblit.cpp).

There's also netplay in Mesen, an NES emulator whose UI is done with .net. So probably it's easier to adapt its solutions than to reinvent the wheel. https://github.com/SourMesen/Mesen/tree/master/GUI.NET/Forms/NetPlay

VPN sounds like an overhead. It's known that Kaillera, or example, doesn't seem to care about this. There's also an open source Kaillera replication http://p2p.kaillera.ru/ though I'm not sure if it works with dynamic ips too. Probably the mothod used there could give some hints in our case too. Anyways, I think if I enable the port in my router, I'll be able to connect using it, like it helps me with QIP file sharing.

About diversity. I can agree with that right now, there's too much of similar stuff in there. RTS/RPG. I suggest one of these: [1297] SNES EarthBound by pirohiko in 1:10:00.95 [2592] SNES Chrono Trigger by keylie in 2:17:08.86 Each of them has better rating than Warcraft, so we should consider that factor. Also, we should pick one FPS, probably not necessarily Doom, ratings would help as well. Regarding Fightings, see this: http://tasvideos.org/Movies-C9010Y-RatingE.html I'd add one of those too. About current runs.

SMB walkathon does feel like it's the weakest one indeed.
SMB3 "warps" is so traditional it's probably not revolutionary anymore.
Super Metroid "RBO" is a tough one, I'd say it's really really good, see the first page of this thread for the reasons.
SM64 "0 star" - yeah, probably, same as SMB3 "warps".
Majora's Mask - if we drop SM64, we'd need at least one 3D platform there.
Mega Man 2 - traditionally cool run, quite obvious what it has to offer, but I would personally prefer Minus Infinity. Because it has glitches, it has planning, it has weapon management and stuff. Or maybe MM1, its techniques have been there for quite a while, so it won't look so absurd anymore I guess, like it did back when it was done. Or MMX "threesome".
Sonic 3 - well, yeah, same thing over and over, even though it's a great game and a nice branch, but it seems to have too many weak spots.
SMB3 "ACE" - NO FUCKING DOUBT! This has nothing to do with Mario, it's a Total Control thing, there's no way it is replaced with anything other. Pi? LOL, Pi is not even close to that level.
Gradius - unsure anymore. I'd drop it if we really need the vacant place.
Gimmick! - alright, we can keep it.
The first 5 Samsara mentioned - No doubt either.

I can see Magician Lord (and/or some similar runs) getting newcomered, we just need a consensus here. But we can't keep expanding the list forever.

moozooh wrote:

In my opinion, and I think I can back it up sufficiently, a newcomer rec should first and foremost be newcomer-friendly. Which means they should look and sound good, have intuitive mechanics and the run itself should demonstrate easily discernible level of precision and planning without boring nor alienating the viewer. What is friendly for a pro isn't necessarily friendly for a newcomer. We already have stars for the pros.

Should we get back to discussing the current list again? When relying on the thread I linked, I made sure the runs I picked weren't questionable. I'm not sure we can guarantee that again if we just start changing the list based on the preferences of the people ITT: there's too few of us here.
