Weird Egg Glitch - I don't know what's going on!
I've run into a bit of an odd glitch, today. Through OpenEmu on my Macbook, I decided I'd play a little Smash Remix 2.0.1. I love this mod; I've played it plenty of times before, and I don't think I've ever run into any issues before, at least not on my Mac.
I start a single-player versus match against a CPU - I choose Young Link, and the CPU is Ganondorf, and we battle on Ganon's Tower. I soon noticed, any time either I or the CPU landed mid-aerial, the fighter in question would suddenly... go into an egg. A Yoshi's egg. It was just as if Yoshi had been there to perform his neutral special, only, you know... he wasn't! This is strange. Very strange!
At the same time, the game was running _ridiculously_ slow. When rewatching my playback - the one I'm sharing here - I had to speed up the video by 300 or 400 percent just to be able to watch it at a normal speed! I understand that Macs, let alone Macbooks, aren't exactly prime video game machines. But this is only a Nintendo 64 game, and I have _never_ encountered this level of lag and slowdown before. Not only that, but I actually have another, separate version of Smash Remix: I have Smash Remix & Knuckles, a mod-of-a-mod that works on 2.0.0. I was playing this immediately before I was playing 2.0.1 today, and absolutely nothing was wrong.
Back to the egg business - I closed the game, closed the emulator, and opened it back up. I chose Young Link again in versus, Samus as my CPU opponent this time, and went for Ganon's Castle again. Same thing happened as before. So I then quit the match, and began a new one on another stage. Same thing. And again. Same thing.
The game's speed is reduced to nil - it genuinely feels like I'm playing in that super slow mode Smash Bros games usually have. But I'm not! Moreover, more randomly, any time you land a character in the midst of performing an aerial, you turn into a Yoshi egg. _YOSHI ISN'T EVEN THERE!_
So, I was just wondering if anybody had any idea as to what could possibly be going wrong. I've never had something like this happen in Smash Remix. I've played 2.0.1 plenty of times before and have never had a problem anything close to this. Does anybody know what's going on? Anyone know how I can fix it?
I mean, worst case scenario, I _do_ have v.2.0.0 with Knuckles, but I like having the option to play vanilla 2.0.1, too.
Edit: Just to clarify - the sound did work, it's just I wasn't able to record audio for whatever reason. Apple is dumb.
