It is 1.5 gigs so it's definitely there and I don't know what you mean by hex editor but I tried opening it with notepad++ but it says the file is too big to open. If it helps I downloaded it as a torrent.

I do have extensions enabled. It is definitely a nonspecific file. When I just add one the emulator doesn't recognise the file at all.

I would like to make a TAS for the Wii called Big Brain Academy. I have tried countless different ROM downloads and all of them give me a file without an extension which won't work with Dolphin (my emulator). Am I doing something wrong or do I need to find the right download or what? [MOD EDIT: a more appropriate topic name]

Ok thanks everyone for the feedback I now understand a lot more about this. The thing about speedrunning this game is that it is mostly rng based and I would like to complete the game before I do that (It takes a LONG time to do that. By completing it I mean 100%). The reason I wanted to TAS it is that I could manipulate the RNG so that I could complete it in a ridiculously short time. The thing about the emulators is very logical too. Thanks everyone :)

Fair enough but this doesn't make a lot of sense to me. PC is on e of the biggest platforms however there only exists one tas software which is incompatible with most games... is it because of mouse inputs? Also I have seen some TASes done on the original game - is that using mods and editing, all done real time? Here is an example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT5nRqHm9Ng

I want to make a TAS for a game called The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, and I tried to use hourglass as it is a PC game. When I try to open the game through the program it just doesn't open. Please help :( I am new to this whole thing
