maybe adapting this forum post for a doc page: http://retroachievements.org/viewtopic.php?t=81

update

It would be cool if we had a video showing techniques to find the RAM address for demo mode. In some games it's really easy to find, but in other's it can be tricky. The video should show examples on various games, the simple and the complex ones.

I agree that it wouldn't be simple to explain "how to detect demo mode" via text. A video would work better, but I'm afraid my foreigner accent is not that good...

I'll change the title to make it clear that we want a video and keep this issue as open.

A video? You're opening a Pandora's box for making video solutions for all our docs.. Wouldn't hurt.

the "video tutorials box" was never closed. Every volunteer is very welcome to create them sharing their techniques of achievement creation.

by the way, Magus created a video to illustrate his technique of Creating a Timer with ResetIf Hits based on the Speed of the Game: https://youtu.be/6PpdG04tM4s
