Nah, it's one of my traditions to put 50% gray in the background of most of my works.

Zero V2 Finished for today.

I got the running animation done, and I used it and recolored it to create a new avatar.

Yeah, I loved that feature. Being able to select what layers you wanted to turn on 'n off was awesome. I use Nester these days, but it doesn't have those features at all.

Emu I had good luck with JNES, but it's been years since I used it.

Zero V2 Oh, wow. This actually works great. I just screenshot the current frame and copy what I need, right off of it.

Saves me the trouble of working off the emulator, and I don't need to constantly pause anything to get what I need--I can just take everything right out of the video.

I appreciate the help, thanks for the recommendation.

If Nesticle is still around, would you provide a link to it?

Zero V2 Would I at least be able to copy each frame I need into Paint, then take the stuff I need from there?

executioneer no

Mockery Does it allow you to remove characters from their backgrounds and still save the animations? Say, for example, I'm playing Super Mario Bros. 2 and I want to have an animation of Luigi jumping, but I want it to be without the game background showing behind him. Just a transparent gif of Luigi's speedy legs jump. Can VD do that?

executioneer more in-depth and less snippy response: virtualdub has an option where you can export every frame of a movie as a .jpg, .tga, or .bmp, it's how i made this .gif (although i, being lazy, did actually just d/l a gameplay movie off youtube)


and if you don't want to use the full frame VD also has the ability to crop it to just the part you want, also you can delete parts of the movie so you only export the frames you want

Oh gotcha. I thought you were talkin' about grabbin sprites off of youtube videos 'n what not.

Oh-ho! On the contrary!

Emu It's the same reason that one dude stole Esuohlim's name to make that Vampire Freaks page.

About Sprite Ripping.

Is there software out there that can take a video and seperate every frame individually for editing purposes? It would make everything so much easier if there was.
