Creating "Bene Points" has helped me save time when making videos. And here is how it works.

Bene Points in Replayed Memories
When replaying memories you can activate cheats you've unlocked. After activating a cheat the game will no longer save any progress you've made (to prevent you from using a cheat to easily get full synch for example). When you deactivate the cheat the game will transport you to the current replay, which is the checkpoint in which you first activated the cheat. This can really help in saving time if you wanted to do something in a certain part of a memory without having to restart the whole memory over again (as a video maker this has helped me a lot). It's just too bad the developers didn't think more on this or they could have used it to restart memories from any of the checkpoints.

I've actually used it before in attempting to pre-assassinate him. Of course he was invincible to attacks.

This is a fantastic way to get the "restart at last checkpoint" found in AC3 to work in earlier games...

So when you are making a video, you would turn on a cheat, progress in the memory, want to reset, turn off the cheat to reset, turn on another cheat to create the bene point again in case you fail what you want to do the second time... because if you continued in the video progress would be saved due to no cheats, right?

Only that the game doesn't save progress if you have cheats on?

More like restart from any checkpoint in the memory (but you can only use one checkpoint at a time).

That's it in a nutshell.

That's the only downside.
