The Swapper desync issues

Open calvarado194 opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I'm having issues with syncing The Swapper, latest Steam version on libTAS 1.4.2. Running the currently created movie with no fast forward at all desyncs the movie after I used fast-forward to skip thru the intro cutscenes and get to gameplay. Running some fast-forward until the spaceship lands and the camera starts zooming in allows for the movie to sync up properly.

I attach pictures of Swapper with fast-forward (expected) and no fast-forward, as well as the movie file itself swapper_fastforward swapper_no_fastforward swapper.zip

Fast forwarding can desync movies. This is evident in my Deltarune True Reset TAS, where it would desync in one of the minibosses if you fastforwarded at all.

Best thing to do is just not fast forward at all. Might take you a while but it's either that or a desynced movie unless it gets fixed, which I doubt it will.
