Dimon12321, I have a question for you. It is strongly related to how you already managed to improve several runs of yourself by quite some time. Have you already caught the feeling of suddenly improving something that seemed "good enough" for you before? Has it started motivating you to try and improve even more, despite your impression that it's "already good enough"?

It's because for new player entries, we have to manually add the forum account(s) of the player(s).

I believe we should switch to the English title with this submission.

The game doesn't work in FBA, dunno if they ported it to MAME-rr as well. http://code.google.com/p/mame-rr/source/browse/lua/

tl;dr: We need SMS emulator video output fixed, to add those borders.

Also, easy answer to "how to make it deterministic" Just remove any sources of entropy! :D It might sounds complicated, but it easy.
Can you be more specific? Is it possible to read the core's code and say with some certainty what is going to introduce that entropy? For a skilled coder it must be so, so please share some thoughts. Trying it by hand for each possible condition isn't efficient you know.

Excuse me, but isn't this movie uses a major skip glitch?
I'm pretty sure it isn't. It goes out of bounds, and all the rest is the result of that. Watch how gradually the time was going slightly shorter throughout the publication history, it's not like the game took 10 minutes normally, then suddenly it took 1. It's a heavy glitch abuse, non-major skip glitch.

It looks like SMS indeed outputs huge horizontal and tiny vertical borders, and some devs even gave them special colors, so the overall picture was 4:3, but the real screen was 16:9-ish. See the third link by creaothceann.

It looks to me that you're constantly bumping the wall well before the corner and slide along it until the wall ends, instead of aiming for the corner in the first place. Is it not true? Please explain how movement works in this game.

Looking at those images, I'm believing you. Though it looks like we need vertical borders added to SMS dumps and then ARC them to usual 4:3. What do you think? Are there any snaps from TVs/can those be delivered?

It's most likely related to the lack of extreme geeks on the SMS ground, so don't feel too bad. Nothing stops us from fixing this issue if the arguments are clear enough, and to me it so far looks so. PS: your links are 404.

It wasn't cared about to that level really. Can you try it with more games?

Doesn't look like so. We just force all TV systems to 4:3, unless they are that already. The only case I recall where you have to add some manual cropping is A2600.

And when this game was played by Moons laws, it was rejected #3965: c-square's NES Super Jeopardy! in 25:28.57

I believe that it might be a good habit (in future) if a guy that creates enjoyable runs can be donated. But for some reason, once someone starts asking for donations, it ends up like this:

Sorry for the late reply. I watched both runs, and I agree that the Expert difficulty run is preferable.
So why don't you accept this one?

Why would you be using lsnes with wine? I don't think there's a more linux friendly emulator than lsnes.

It passed the saving and synced once, and now it just desyncs after it. Do I need a clear ROM or something?

Looks great! BTW, I'm pretty sure you can use slightly higher res for 3D primary - dump at 1024x768 and resize to 342x256. Another thought is to dump not at 4:3. Polygons get improved even more, then you downscale to 4:3 SD. That must be discussed with pros though.

Released doesn't mean it can be edited. Nemesis has some completely mad licensing ideas. Then, it is absurdly slow, and x64 only. That's an unfair cost for being only slightly better than Genesis+GX.

Do we really need a separator in the primary encodes? WTF am I doing wrong again?
