Press - or + to speed up or down whilst recording. You can also press \ (the slash usually above RETURN) to advance a single frame. To unpause/pause, press Pause.

Then when the TAS stops at the time you want to continue, then turn off the "read only" mode. After that, save a state and reload it to continue a TAS.		Open a Super Mario 64 ROM in Mupen64.
