is it possible to display the timer and/or the frames on screen? whenever i press ? or help in the debugger famtasia crashes but this would make it so much easier to compare times. its virtually impossible or very time consuming to compare times right now... so a timer of the current vid, and frame counter (or either), would rock :)

http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=367 There has been some discussion before about hacking famtasia again to display time, but I don't know if there is any effort on it anymore.

I decided, instead, to implement a movie re-recording patch for FCE Ultra (which also includes the frame display feature). I've submitted my patch to the FCEU team; we'll see if they accept it. I think switching to FCEU would be a good idea mostly because Famtasia has so many problems.

Oh, cool. See, I figured out that Fceu DOES record movies--it's one of the many features that's for keyboard only and not accessible from the GUI. :P It just doesn't re-record correctly, that's all. What it needs to do is back up in the movie when you load a state saved during the movie. But you probably knew that already. The way it works now, it'll play the moves of your successful try AFTER your unsuccessful tries if you load a state during the movie and play it back.

Good to hear. I hope it has mapper 105(famtasia didn't have) so we can compete in Nintendo World Championship - rom, which has 3 games in it: SMB, Rad Racer, Tetris and it has some kind of scoring system that determines the winner. It was used in Nintendo World Championship in 1990.

i'm up for a change to a emu that's still being developped, but that's not up to me personally, famtasia is annoying me more and more.
