How remove other sprites than get in the way of editing


Negadrive

Question

I'm trying to get sprites for a specific character but the other opposing character on the screen is in the way, how do i edit out the opposing character when ripping the sprites for the other character.
I'm using a visual boy advance to rip sprites for a gundam seed but when i try to record certain actions such as a laser cannon that goes across the screen the opposing is caught in the middle of attack to the point where it's hard to rip the laser sprite without the opposing character still being in the frame.

As you can see the opposing character is being hit with the laser but what i'm trying to rip is the sprite of laser as well as the effect it creates when it hits

but like i said the opposing character still caught in the middle of it, so my question of do i edit out the other character that's caught in the attack using the visual boy's settings so get i can get just the laser sprite and it effect? Oam viewer doesn't show the full sprite effect, so i can't use it.

You would just have to edit the picture manually. If your emulator can't turn off layers enough for you to rip the sprite(s), then you're going to have to do it manually in Photoshop or something. You could try DeSuME, which (I think) can play GBA games as well. I've used it to rip sprites in the past for an NDS title.

Desmume doesn't run gba roms and no$gba doesn't have oam viewer.
