Victoria, AustraliaOr does the TAS Tools built into Dolphin still make that an issue due to the risk of someone out of nowhere coming in and cheating?
Just letting you know that PCSX2 also has the TASing tools, and Dolphin isn't accepted for a different reason being that it runs the game absurdly differently to an actual system (GameCube is considered the weakest version between the three).
All times in the Individual Time Attacks are listed as Real-Time and not In-Game Time and some accidentally slip through the cracks.
Just going to clarify at the start.
None of this is a knack on you it's all done to point out clarity, so if it comes of wrong or aggressive, that wasn't intended.
It's good to see a Dreamcast submission just that the description has a lot of unintentional misinformation in regards to emulation.
In regards to the Emulator, I went by the guidance of the TASVideos Archive page.
The one that's actually on TASVideos isn't brought up in the TASVideos Discord discussion (what you link to). Nor the page of the actual core requests in the github (or the issue requests).
There is no official tool available for Dreamcast Emulation however many community members including Spikestuff has been using Flycast for TAS.
There has not been a single instance of a completed TAS using Flycast emulator nor any other Dreamcast emulator, due to the complexities of needing to use libTAS (Linux) and the fact everything that I have done with not only Dreamcast emulation, have been experimental to see what sticks. In Flycast's case the thing it fails the most at which is why no one has made a proper TAS of it is due to no feasible way to actually dump the audio from the game.
Run was made before the rules were established @SuperDfar.
So before you even think about riding a high horse how about you actually learn a little thing called history and rule development and follow the rules you're actively breaking that are current. Rather than focus on a run that got grandfathered in.
Or y'know just don't act like you know something when you clearly don't.
QT is fine, NoGUI is no longer supported by DuckStation.
As long as you can get the special menu up which is requested (there's a hotkey where you can do this it's assigned to Escape on default) then you're generally fine.
It would be roughly a 12.433 with your timing:
You're better off using BigPEmu which is a more modern Jaguar emulator.
But that's up to authorblues to decide about the emulation rules for this title.
[quote=FuzionSynth]Would DuckStation be acceptable in the future?[/quote]
You missed the brief period of time where DuckStation was an acceptable emulator for CTR. As outlined and explained here CTR wants to keep it to a single static emulator and that emulator is mednafen.
Rogue moderation abuse by Stormlight who was removed from Super Mod position by srcom site staff and restored a portion of the board.
That's the surface level explanation.
Great decision. So when's the decision where you're all stepping down as moderators?
Great luck, that the third place run, which is now looking at top run no longer has a video. The run would probably most likely fall under to lenient on timing, and would shove back a couple of milliseconds (or forwards if timing was adjusted).
But as another saying goes (even tho the run existed at one point). No Vid, No Did. Even if it's a Top 3 run.
I got curious cause it's the second place run, and it's a meme game (and it's only fair).
Once again the timer starts late and ends early but it's easier to see what's going on (honestly it would be easier if it started from black and ends at black). if the timing was correct to the rules it should be a 3:13.900 run, not a 3:13.600. Matching the timer to the runner's "start" it's actually a 3:13.800. And from black to black it's a 3:13.700.
The runner was too lenient with their own timing (which is fine) but it's good to go over it. If I get bored enough I'll look at all the other runs and make comments about the timing used on them.
I got curious cause it was top run, and it's a meme game. The game runs at 30fps, but the timer is at 24fps.
The timer starts late (honestly it would be easier if it started from black and ends at black). if the timing was correct to the rules it should be a 3:13.700 run, not a 3:13.160. Matching the timer to the runner's "start" it's actually a 3:13.633. And from black to black it's a 3:13.500.
Whatever program was used to time the run in post by the runner was extremely wrong. If I get bored enough I'll look at all the other runs and make comments about the timing used on them.
This is what Wookis is referring to, if you don't have it update your OBS:
Retimed this to the rules and it's a 4.478:
Also BabyPandaJ you submitted this as a 4.024 even though the timer shows 4.240. Keep an eye on those milliseconds in the future.
Retimed this to the rules and it's a 3.870:
(You can also see this when you download and step through the runner's video, but I wanted to go over it proper)
Retimed this to the rules and it's 4 seconds flat:
Extra comparison with 2nd to 4th showcased as well in terms of first click frame, to last frame (first frame seeing space):
[quote=Portic]why? my speedrun.com account is legit.[/quote] Your YouTube and Twitch accounts are the issue, especially when you lie as much as you do.
Remember the thing I opened up with in this very thread, pointing out that you were taking credit on turboa's TAS. I saw you upload that video on the 19th October (my time), I made a comment under the video on the 22nd October, I would say check your spam comments, since you have me blocked on your YouTube account**^**, but you deleted the video. Despite privatizing all the other TASes you took credit for.
That was actually after my conversation with Axodo which was dated back to the 15th October cause it was pointing out that "hey, this run is from this twitch vod, and it's TAS input". I would then check your YouTube account and it was still Gun Devil and Goose Game. And I thought to myself "oh so Portic has learnt, that's good".
Then you decided to mirror the Twitch stream of the Smurfs TAS to your YouTube.
Now this is all assumptions, and I'm not going to believe you, cause you're also a walking talking contradiction.
When you realized that "your" invalid run got accepted is that when you decided to mirror that TAS to your YouTube account from your Twitch? So ain't that contradictory of your "I immediately ran to delete all the tases that were still checking" comment? Cause that's is the action of taking credit of others works especially that of a TAS.
Now did you actually run to delete or did that only happen, when I was the person that pointed out, in each TAS that you took credit for as a speedrun and who it belonged to on the YouTube which again, isn't deleted, but private.
This isn't exclusive to Bubsy, but it's the easiest to showcase today evidence, than just pointing out that the Rayman TAS that your 1:1 literally took the YouTube video from keylie's personal account and downloaded, and uploaded it to your own at a worse resolution which is also currently private and not deleted.
^ Now in a comment here that you deleted here you stated "but i didn't blocked no one" despite the fact that I do have legitimate evidence against that claim which is in my original comment. Maybe you unblocked me now, but after my statement, and evidence? You're still a liar trying to change your narrative.
[quote=Portic]my smurfs run is with no video bc i posted it for a mistake before the ban[/quote] So you're saying that the run you submitted, with the time of 18:35 is illegitimate then?
I mean, if it's because you're actually using a PlayStation 2 this time on your submission, compared to last time where you submitted turboa's as your own, and didn't mention that it was an emulated run, which is PlayStation... and also a TAS.
Why don't you just do what newcomer speedrunners of every other title does when they don't have the capture equipment and grab out a camera, a phone camera, or a webcam, point it at the TV and hit record.
I stand by my "no vid, no did" and I still stand by the fact you can actually do stuff, but if you're contradicting yourself here, and not providing video evidence to your run, even with a basic camera pointed to a TV. I still believe that you can actually do good, but you're not helping yourself with how you're going on about it.
Portic, if you are actually running Smurfs, and not taking credit for a TAS, and you are actually using a PlayStation 2, get a camera out.
But please, do me a favour first. And stop lying about everything you have stated here, when we have evidence to the contrary which is public and available already. And I'm going to prove it to you: [quote=Portic]i said "i don't care" or something like that, literally bc you continue to say that i don't care about what you've said to me, what i have to do? the smurfs video, for that i'm really sorry but i deleted that run on speedrun.com as i said[/quote]
In my conversations to you, not once did I say that "you didn't care". I told you "Learn something, don't cheat it" and "You're only sorry that you got caught".
You write back to me "I would have simply deleted the videos" and then "frankly I don't care". Clearly you don't care, cause we're looping back around in this conversation. You mirrored the TAS from your Twitch to your YouTube after the conversation that you started with me in my DMs on the 29th September.
Can you please pick a lane, and stop contradicting your own statements and lying. Please stop it, cause as I said, we have evidence to the contrary which is public and available already. And stop blaming others on your actions that you still decide to take.
This is my last post about all this as a note, unless you write something obviously false and damning. As I wrote, I'm still interested in you actually doing good, but it's all you to do, you can't blame anyone on your own actions.
