I'm saying the author sets the goal in the first place. My bad, I haven't read all posts to determine how much people agree with your goal, but if it was liked, it must be left as it was originally. If not, all the audience must take part in figuring the branch name out. I also can't recall how the rules describe the cases when item % is not showed and their real number in the game is actually unknown. Like, "max items" instead of "all items". http://tasvideos.org/Search.html?key=%22max+items%22&subs=1 But since it was not defined yet, we can settle with traditional names, like 100%, just mentioning what would it mean for a particular game. It is natural and sensible, picking particular traits for a branch name and ignoring others - is not.

It's hard to follow the rules one invents out of nowhere by himself. It's harder to make other people obey them. Rules mean nothing internally, only naturalness does. Did the goal in the author's mind naturally produce some kind of solution that also feels natural by the audience? Why overcomplicate and overformalize everything afterwards once again? This isn't going anywhere good this way (history proved).

This WIP is one of the most awesome TAS examples I've seen lately.

How to detect the reset frame? I will save a state after it and load to capture from it.

How can I capture a movie with reset? Emulator freezes after it during capture (I use the proper version that can PLAYBACK it).

Remzi can also cancel this submission before starting serious improvement work.

Probably the co-authorship will help both things: improving the movie and gaining the TAS skill by the author.

So, this is really the case, this TAS got very poor testing. I'd like the author to post so far, because now it's going to be rejected unless he makes an improvement right away and we replace the file.

It was autovaulted in the very beginning.

The movie of an odd goal is acceptable as long as people like it. That doesn't look like the case here though (so far).

I still don't understand what exactly is wrong in TAS sound plugin? All the difference I hear is clipping here and there.

The game doesn't look too simple, but the rerecord count is insanely low. However no one posted improvement suggestions, and without that we can't reject the run that is thought to be suboptimal. Remzi, how deep testing and movement optimization you put into this run? I guess most of the strats were known after your experience with this game, but nevertheless.

This is incorrect for certain graphics plugins, like TAS Soft Graphic Plugin. There are missing load frames from the video if you don't use Eternal SPU and used a sync audio plugin.

Then we are not able to compare screenshots because the frames don't match. Are we?

Captured again from the first non-movie frame that still leads to ending. Running x264 already. There IS blinking in this game, but it looks like a 15 Hz one, so I'm just reducing to 30 for HD and all the blinking is still there.

For some reason, this is what's called at the end of the movie instead of proceeding to the ending. Looks like Pause. How to fix that?

EDIT: Wow, the input I see after the movie is >43^5 SABLR C^v<> D^v. Where the hell does it come from? EDIT 2: The frame 272476 already has no input, but the movie still lasts. Weird.

To turn them into branch tree click on the header. To save/load branches you can use internal FCEUX hotkeys for savestates. Or mouse clicks: Rightclick to save, Leftclick to jump, Doubleclick to load. http://www.fceux.com/web/help/taseditor/Toolbox.html#bookmarks

An obvious question then. Why did you switch to it? Also, did you test shifting input according to lag changes? It was developed to a very high level.
