Is it acceptable to make and submit movies with this setting enabled?
Wasn't ever considered, but I guess it isn't acceptable, as it would emulate a modified hardware which we don't allow.

I am still curious about Gen+GX though.
GPGX wasn't saving interlaced flag to states, but that might be just our version of it, and it was fixed for your libretro build.

RaijinXBlade, do you have a way to test state loads during interlaced mode in some official gpgx build? I get corrupted graphics in bizhawk if I rewind in that mode.

Exactly. Can there be a way to capture it internally?

They are 100% windowsism, so use Wine.

RaijinXBlade, please record an example move of the game that does switch to interlaced (during your movie) and back.

It hasn't yet actually, the discussion spawned again recently on IRC.

Lag differences don't count when comparing the runs for optimality. Only the actual gameplay. If the game allows you to do some action later on a more accurate emulator, do it later, and we'll only compare how optimal that action itself is.
Can you discard the lag and just adapt the better strats from the old submission?

criticism is awesome when its constructive
People also post honest feedback about how they feel regarding what they have seen. This is why No votes are given: 6 people didn't get entertained by your tas. That's okay, being entertaining isn't the criterion that would lead to rejection if a run uses either any% or 100% goal. We have the Vault tier for such runs.
But even for Vault, the game must feel beaten to get accepted. We don't publish runs that just reduce the challenge to make things easier, hence the hardest difficulty guideline. Simplifying things should be justified in terms of TAS contents, because even if we don't require a run to be entertaining, we still prefer it to be impressive compared to regular play.
Basically, if the prince mode allows you to actually beat the game while not taking away any important gameplay aspects, this submission has all chances to get rejected for not having a solid reason for easier difficulty/game mode, exactly because it doesn't beat all the traditional Lion King Levels, and the viewer feedback shows that it's a significant downside in this case.

As I said, nothing aggressive was said. So you don't have to feel bad.

I only see 2 of that kind here, and even that is only if I unleash my imagination. Criticism is not just normal, it's necessary to help making a good run. But there's nothing intentionally aggressive in this thread.

Can you instead explain what the "cub" branch means, gameplay-wise, and how is it different from what you expected to get accepted instead of it?

What saddens me so much is that after DEVELOPING all imaginable kinds of neat tools and workflows, everything was ruined by some bloodless bad luck completely.

Corey got it to sync as well, it depends on the plugin, and even on the resolution, probably on something more though.

Insulting TASers for whatever reason is absolutely unacceptable.

Also, "twat" is thrown around like childsplay in Sprash. So why cry over spilt milk about it?
Spikestuff, you're not such a close friend of The8bitbeast's to pretend that such an insult has no reason to be taken seriously. Even if you were basically thinking aloud, The8bitbeast saw that compellation and, in turn, had no reason not to get offended.
Over the years, you've been giving zero fucks about manners (regardless of whether you had valid reasons to complain or not), and that has been tolerated only because you contribute a lot. But The8bitbeast contributes too! This whole site exists to be a home for TASers.
Apologize please.

Judging by their behavior in the recent years, they'd rather try to sue him at least.
