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.

Haha, believe me, I wish there was.
Furthermore, you wouldn't want to rip sprites from a video of game footage... they'd be way too blurry. You want those sprites to come directly from the game. Unfortunately, that means you need to capture them one thing at a time and reassemble them. That's why there's usually a long delay between our new flash game releases here on I-Mockery. |
What is I-Mockery?
|
Some website.
|
Why would some website copy the name of our message board? :confused:
|
It's the same reason that one dude stole Esuohlim's name to make that Vampire Freaks page.
|
The Internet is full of copy-cats :(

I use FCEU 0.98.15. They don't have it on their site anymore (instead replaced with the FCEUX, which doesn't run as fast for me), but it does have an AVI recording/output function which retains the exact quality from the gameplay. |
use virtualdub, dummy

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 |
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?
|
no :(
|
Would I at least be able to copy each frame I need into Paint, then take the stuff I need from there?
|
nesticle screenshots preserved the difference between background black and the black in a sprite border. also i think it could turn off the background layer. no modern emulator seems to do either so sadness is forever :< you'll just have to draw your own sprites it's the only option
|
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? |
I had good luck with JNES, but it's been years since I used it.

Finished for today.
I got the running animation done, and I used it and recolored it to create a new avatar. |
Looks good man. You should try making the background transparent... it'd probably look even better.
