PPSSPP should have a menu for "TAS", Tool Assisted Speedrun.
TAP, Tool Assisted Playthrough and TAT, Tool Assisted Translation.
TAS should allow for the ability to do the following:
Headers Archive such as who made a file for TAS, Rerecord count to understand how many times it was rerecorded such as save states, seed or way to store values to make them static, RNG consistency to account for randomized events or actions upon a playback of the file.
Rewinding gameplay to correct deaths, errors or mistakes, useful for those wanting to edit less video as it takes a long time to edit this stuff out.
TASers enjoy rewinding to find better time saving methods to get a new record in a game.
To some of us, we have enough space for rewinding or bigger file sizes.
Frame advancing by pausing with a hotkey, manually and pushing to the next frame for precise frame timing to continue where you left off last time.
Most TAS Emulators allow you to save the movie and save state where you are on that particular frame, load up the movie again, load the save state and continue from where you were on.
Auto pause when a movie is done or a save state is loaded to stay on a particular frame.
There should be an input log that shows what keys were pressed on what frame for further editing.
SaveStates should be anchored to a movie file, or whatever is decided upon, to make it all contained.
Who would this benefit
Debuggers trying to get certain bugs or issues replicated.
Glitch hunters trying to replicate glitches in certain scenarios or conditions.
TASers that want to cut down time or achieve a new record.
TAPers that want to play through a game instead of using time to have a file to replay the game 1:1 and let it render in HD if needed.
TATers same as above but to Translate from one language to another.
Platform (if relevant)
No response
