Well i downloaded mupen 64 emulator for my computer and it is the best one for tool assisted play (or so i've heard). I can't figure out how people do so good like they do on the youtube videos. Whenever i try to use frame advance or slow motion things it almost makes it harder for me. Any idea how i can get to be playing like this-->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oGQ-_eurI0 _________________

You might wanna try posting this on PC-HQ too. I'm not sure how many people are on there anymore but they would prolly be the ones to point you in the right direction on this one. _________________

Hey thanks a lot for the support man
I've always been in shock by how fast these guys do it in the videos. I'm going to be more searching as well, but after 2 days of it im still running dry . _________________

From what i can tell so far it seems that thay just turn on the cheats and play the game one frame at a time, so it might be be takeing hours to do and just played back at high speed so it looks like a normel pace.
Some of the videos even say in the caps that "this is not a show of gameing skill."

Yes i know it does not show true skill at all lol. I just can't figure out how to work the frame by frame or the slow mo, it screws me up. I can keep trying i guess. Was just wondering if there was some special places they always saved state or something like that, or how save states help the frame by frame work. _________________
