Negadrive

i rewrote the message up top so hopefully i made things more to the point this time.

Hmm, post a picture of the sprite your trying to rip. Maybe there's an easier way after seeing it?

I can't cause the same error keeps coming up.

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.

i cant see anything but text .

use the link option for the image if its not letting you add ur image

I fixed it.

upload your image to a different website.

the picture above is a example of what i mean.

It Keeps saying you're "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community"

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.

superb stage design as evident of the game it hails from.

You have to get a external system open for it to take the pictures. I prefer using SnagIt(http://www.techsmith.com/snagit.html?gclid=Cj0KEQjwnZShBRDfxqzr55rcyMEBEiQA1iRNPwllt4zMhRpY988GWcTCLjvLEX56I5tK9tYlTKweW00aAvig8P8HAQ)

and from there i take it suppose to use photoshop or a picture editing program of some kind to get the spirits from the screenshot.

1. Did you make a savestate on the attack you wanted?

2. Did you check with the palettes?

 

If thats not the case for either try TIM2View. Though, it may not work since its more along the line for tiles.

now i got the picture that i wanted to appear in the work area but i still don't how to make a spirit from it, cause that commands only tell me how to move across the screen to get the picture i want not how to extract anything.

V-Ram works fine. Its quite easy to use its just tends to be a long process. May i ask, what game are you ripping from anyways? Certain games are harder to rip from then others.

Super Robot Wars alpha gaiden, i remember when i tried to rip sprites before with V-Ram but the picutre that came out looking nothing like what i was trying to rip. I was trying rip the 1 of the attacks from 1 of the mechs but it instead gave a messed up picture of the battle field map.

This anime is among my most favorites if anyone wants more needless awesomeness they should read the manga as well, warning to some people though if you hate traps you might not like it.

i looked up tutorials on how to rip playstation spirits but i don't know extactly what to do even with the necessary programs, the main reason why i'm going through all this trouble is because the character i want to make doesn't have spirits on any website. The programs i'm using are PSicture and PSX Vram, it seems that not to many people rip sprites this way that might be why i'm having trouble, if anyone knows how the process work it would be a great help.

what's up people my name's negadrive and i'm new here to mugenfreeforall, i hope to have a great time here talking and learning about all things mugen.
