Is it possible to continue recording on where I left the game on famtasia ? Like I want to run mario 3 first world. Then stop recording and watch how it came to. And then If it was gj I continue it.. Is it even possible? I have tried saving a state before I stop the movie and then start recording and load the state I saved earlier.. But the movie says its broken after that.

http://tasvideos.org/UsingEmulatorTools.html You are supposed to load your savestate _while the movie is playing back_. If you tried starting recording on your movie (as in choosing record movie and then the same filename as last time), you have probably destroyed your movie. Hope you have a backup. Make lots and lots of backups.

no, you dont start record, you just load the state while WATCHING your movie, not while recording.

I'm not sure I want to see that... MM4 is a long game and if you define your challenge as "thou must not be creative", it's going to be boring.

It's not for the site ^^ Rest assured. I'm doing it for my own amusement.
