Title: Re: Contest #3: High Score
Post by: Soulrivers on April 17, 2008, 08:56:04 pm: Actually, both ZSNES and Snes9x are TAS compatible. So this is gonna be a tough one to judge, unless you force the players to use a console. Which would mean no entries. :(

The idea is that we trust them not to use em :P.... but yeah, Star Fox is really hard to play slowed down too; lol

But then again, you could just check for re-records. Even though a clever player could remove them easily.

Post by: NickAVV on April 19, 2008, 03:53:41 pm: Ah, this contest is fun. I'm probably getting not-so-awesome scores compared to all of you guys, but my trusty (and dusty) USB gamepad is enjoying its first use in a looong time. :D
Title: Re: Contest #3: High Score
Post by: Dantztron 3030 on April 19, 2008, 08:42:37 pm: Just wondering, for "acquisition" purposes: is "Super Weekend" a separate ~~ROM~~ game from the original StarFox?

Post by: Hoffy on April 20, 2008, 12:59:52 am: How are we supposed to upload to youtube when youtube doesn't allow videos to go over 10 minutes?
Title: Re: Contest #3: High Score
Post by: NickAVV on April 20, 2008, 03:51:16 am: Knivu - Yeah, its a special tournament edition that is only three levels.

Hoffy - Each Super Weekend session is just 4 minutes long. You have to see how many points you can get in that time.

Just get Snes9x or something to record your video :P Everything *required to play* this game has avi output
Title: Re: Contest #3: High Score
Post by: NickAVV on April 23, 2008, 05:08:55 pm: Snes9x's video recorder didn't work for me. It would make a video, but when I played it back it was a completely different thing than what I had done. As if somebody else was playing, doing things totally different from me. I found a free screen recorded for Mac called Copernicus, and I'm sure there are comparable options on Windows.
Title: Re: Contest #3: High Score
Post by: Mamoruanime on April 23, 2008, 05:13:10 pm: were you using AVI output or were you using the "movie recorder"?; you want to go with AVI output. (runs flawless for me on both of those too o.o)
Title: Re: Contest #3: High Score
Post by: NickAVV on April 23, 2008, 05:18:44 pm: Uh, Movie Recorder. I didn't notice any option for AVI recorder, but I guess I am using the Mac version of SNES9x, so it may be different.

Yeah the movie recorder is odd for SF :( only way to do it properly is with AVI output, or you could use something that records the screen

Post by: Knighty on May 08, 2008, 09:59:48 pm: I have a question. Is is ok if I enter a snex9x movie file?
I didn't use re-records or anything like that though, but I have dialup so it would take more an hour or more to upload a video.
I can't even watch smashguys video because of its slowness >_>

Title: Re: Contest #3: High Score | No More Registrations
Post by: NickAVV on May 11, 2008, 02:43:44 am: Gah, no place will take my video. ;___; Let me try a few more. Just for the record, I got 89,000 something points.

EDIT: o_O Gragh, Vimeo seemed so promising. Unfortunately it's just rainbow-static. ;____________;

There's a link on there to download MOV file, which appears to be the right size though, so try that maybe.
