The secret to the fast forward key(I want to apply it to exe files)

So I found a way for your emulator to fast forward ROM games with the video below.

Question:
I want to apply the same mechanism to executable(.exe) files so I can speed up their run time using the fast forward button, but not for ROMs. I would like to know the method you guys use to speed up(fast forward) the ROMs in the emulator. Thanks for your time.

Re: The secret to the fast forward key(I want to apply it to exe files)

the methods are to skip rendering some frames, and to stop simulating the normal flow of reality but rather allow the simulation to proceed as quickly as possoble. what you want is impossible, although for a _programmer_ it can be applied without much difficulty. for a user, it's impossible (unless the game provided options)
