Stupid crazy drivers. What are they doing driving out in the snow at night anyway? They've already plowed the snow off the road, get the hell off of it!

Wait, what was this post about again?

Doesn't matter, I realised that the armour cars can be easily destroyed by doing turbo shoot (press the turbo button). Is using the turbo buttons allowed?

I feel confident I know what I can do now. Just a matter of putting it all together.

You need to convert it to a file YouTube can read. VirtuaNES can convert it to AVI. YouTube also has an around 10 minute max limit on videos so you may need to break it into smaller parts.

Without a ROM on go to Edit -> Movie.. AVI Convert should be enabled. Follow the directions from there.

No, go Edit -> Movie.

There was topic about this somewhere at one point.

I usually use the Xvid-MPG4 option. I also send the vmv file WITH the avi to verify the run wasreal Wink

Before finding the Xvid thing working for me I tried a few others, but with my computer, it liked that option best.

Try the Xvid option, watch the video and see if it works. If it doesn't try another one. There's only so many options.

The Snow Field armored cars were not on my short list of "Things that are gonna be a pain in the ass" here. Just gotta keep shooting.

Things that are: both bases (particularly Base 2 boss), Snow Field boss, and Energy Zone.

I thought Waterfall would give me a hard time, but some test runs showed it wasn't as hard as I thought.

My problem is breaking my current glass ceiling point and doing something stupid once I get there Razz Like running the level absolutely fine testing, but when I get there on a recorded run I find a bullet and run to it head on.

I find that those bosses are relatively easy especially the base bosses.. The hardest part for me are those stupid armoured cars, sometimes I get them, sometimes I dont. I'm assuming you cant pick up the rapid fire power-up, otherwise the armour cars would be easy. The second hardest for me is the waterfall boss for some reason.

I tried my hand at this today. Died halfway through the first level my first try. Second try, died at the first level boss. Third try, I beat the waterfall level in its entirety. My friend came to the door and I had to pause for about 10-15 minutes to look for a CD for him, and by that time I had lost some steam. I went back to the game and got killed while playing sloppy.

This challenge should be interesting, to say the least.
