Sega TAS of 2014
I was going to post this after my second TAS but since the project delayed so much, I decided to put here first. This game is a decent remake of Castlevania: The Adventure, released as Wiiware. It's a bit short but features interesting gameplay as well as nicely remastered graphics. SDA already has speedruns of this game, however there's no speedrun done on hard difficulty. Here're link for speedrun itself and forum. I tried making the test movie and it syncs perfectly (followed RachelB's setting), except a trivial graphical glitch:

I'd be excited to see an Adventure: Rebirth TAS, I wonder how much it'd differ from the unassisted runs. Other than not using the copout of easy difficulty to skip the second form of the final boss, naturally.

One thing you could try: Graphics > Hacks > EFB Copies to RAM. That usually helps with some graphical issues.

Hmm, weird. According to the wiki, 'EFB Copies' should be checked as Texture because RAM induces the crashes. But for me both didn't solve the glitch nor crash the game. I may just make TAS on this option.

Awesome! I briefly tried TASing the game a few years back, but couldn't make it very far into it. I'm glad you're taking a stab at it. I'm looking forward to seeing this game TASed.

Did you start the testrun with dirty SRAM? I always get stuck at the save file creation screen at the beginning. Also, please state the Dolphin version you used. (by the way, this requires the Classic Controller in Wiimote 1)

Okay, managed to get it to sync. You actually need the Nunchuk plugged into Wiimote 1, otherwise, it will desync at the save file creation screen. Something else of note is that you also need two GC memory cards plugged into Slots 1 and 2, otherwise, the WIP will desync early in Stage 1. Regardless of that, pretty nice WIP you have there, even if it's a testrun. Gotta enjoy undead Christopher Belmont for most of Stage 4. By the way, if my memory serves right, you stopped at the Stage 4 mid-boss (the golem, I believe), not the Stage 4 boss (I at least recall some witch screaming "DIE!" and having an evil laugh as the Stage 4 boss).

Cool. Glad to see someone's finally taking care of this game. It's a sad thing the game's only available on the limited platform, M2's remake works were generally great and this was no exception. Good luck.
