'''ChipCap''' is a program by [[Anders Kaseorg]] which records an animated video solution ([[AVI]]) of a level. These video solutions are commonly used for demonstrating the method to score a particular time to the community, or rarely as proof that a specific score is possible with the correct behavior of [[random element]]s. This latter case generally uses a level edited by [[derandomization]] such that it can still be done with the same moves and the original level. | '''ChipCap''' is a program by [[Anders Kaseorg]] which records an animated video solution ([[AVI]]) of a level.

In addition, for this purpose, a program called | In addition, for this purpose, a program called ''SSViewer'', developed by a CC programmer called "shmuel siegel", can generate hypothetical routes through random levels, or automatically perform correct [[boosting]]. ChipCap can capture SSViewer routes, although they are noticably slower and rougher than a normal AVI or TWS. | ||
The latter case was used to generate an AVI for 306 on [[Follow the Glacier Brick Road]] before anyone had physically scored it, and also is believed to be the source for [[Evan Dummit]]'s 947 [[TWS]] for [[Blobdance]] (in the [[Public TWS]]), as he specifies that it was computer-generated. Such routes are not accepted as scores, but are shown as proof, as a demonstration of how the level would change if boosting was perfect, or other reasons depending on the level. | The latter case was used to generate an AVI for 306 on [[Follow the Glacier Brick Road]] before anyone had physically scored it, and also is believed to be the source for [[Evan Dummit]]'s 947 [[TWS]] for [[Blobdance]] (in the [[Public TWS]]), as he specifies that it was computer-generated.
