One Piece sprite gifs

[Caracal]

I'm what's known as a "spriter", meaning I often work with game sprites. Amoung a number of things I do is make gifs (normally when I get bored). After finding some One Piece sprites a while ago I decided to make a few gifs.

Originally I wanted to make one gif with Luffy making that pose then going on to the attacks. However I felt I hadn't given myself enough room to do both so I split it into two.

I'm quite pleased with how this one turned out.

Mods - If I've put this in the wrong forum, sorry. This seemed like the best place to put it.

[Kaos]

They're great! Smooth animation, no shaking at all… you're some good spriter XD

I'm sure I'm going to see these at least in someone's signature...

[Caracal]

Heh. Thanks. I will admit that the last sprite doesn't quite line up with the first one. I didn't realise that Luffy moved forward slightly as I added in some of the later moves but it's not really that noticable. And as long as I get credit for making it, I don't mind people putting them in their sig.

Before people ask me to do any more, I would like to mention that at this moment in time the site I got the original sprites from only has Luffy sprites and Sanji sprites. Both "sprite sheets" (term used to describe the image with all the individual poses) were added a while ago and despite the owner saying he might do Ace or Zoro next, nothing has been done so I'm afraid I can't do any other characters.

[Polygon]

how do you make sprites? Is there a seperate program or can you do it with gimp or PS?

[Caracal]

Normally someone would run the ROM and take screen shots of character's individual poses. They then cut out the character and place the pose on a sperate image which later becomes what's called a "sprite sheet". This process is known as "ripping". Alternatively people can make their own sprites, either by taking a ripped sprite and editing it or by doing their own one from scratch. For example I once made a hamster(ish) character by using Sonic as a base.

You can use any image editing program to work with sprites. I personally use Photoshop. I also use Image Ready to make the gifs.

Wow that IS really good! you gunna do the other chars?

[luffink]

Funny thing: Luffy has the Gomu Gomu no shotgun but he doesn´t use that attack until his second fight with Crocodile.
By the way, will you do more gifs?

[Myoti]

Those are great (coming from someone who really knows about sprites).

I'm sure I'm going to see these at least in someone's signature…

Mine, probably (can I? PLEEEZZE?). :P

Funny thing: Luffy has the Gomu Gomu no shotgun but he doesn´t use that attack until his second fight with Crocodile.

Oh, that's Shotgun? I thought I heard somewhere it was called "GG Machine Gun". sigh So much confusion…

So yuo can actually pull off GG Shotgun? HOW???

By the way, will you do more gifs?

Not to be rude or anything, but didn't he already say not to ask yet?

You´re right, sorry, Caracal
Yes, it´s the shotgun. The second gif has Gatling gun, bazooka and shotgun

[Bloodfoot]

Those are freakin' critical, Caracal. I have so much respect for people who work on such small canvases.

[UPRC]

So you made the gifs from sprite sheets? So, are the sprites from some OP game? I'm asking because they look so familiar…

[Coolmatt]

Oh yeah lol XD XD XD

[Myoti]

Yes, they're from OP: Grand Battle for GBA.

[game2005]

Caracal, how do you perform Shotgun in that game? I don't know how!

[Caracal]

I haven't actually played the game. Infact I wasn't even aware of which game it was until recently. Therefore I don't know how to do any moves. I should also mention that I haven't seen past the Whiskey Peak arc yet so I'm not really familiour with moves from eps that follow that arc.

As for doing other characters, the only other sheet available to me at this moment in time is a Sanji sheet. No other characters have been "ripped" at this moment in time, meaning I don't have any other characters to work with. Should I come across sprites of other characters, I will probably make gifs of them, but don't hold your breath.

And I see it's already in someone's sig. I don't mind people putting it in the sig but please give me credit. It took me about three hours to make.

[Roronoire]

Nice Sprites Caracal! ^__^

[igalsfy]

nice work! the second one especially rocks.

[Kaos]

Where are the sprite sheets by the way?

[Caracal]

Both of the "sheets" are hosted on this site.

Luffy sheet
Sanji sheet

[Kaos]

Great, if I have time I may "play" a little with them…

[warp]

just sanji and luffy ;_:

nice work btw its so awesome

[luffink]

Hey, wait a sec, that sprites are not from this game!!
Arabasta background?

[Caracal]

Like I said, I just got them from the site. I have no idea what game they came from. However this site also has a Luffy sheet with a few different moves (as well as a Helmeppo sheet). As a result I've made a few tweeks to the attack gif. The "new version" is pretty much identical, except there's now an extra punch frame in Gattling Gun (making a total of four which are looped three times) and I had some more poses for Pistol. I also got rid of the "after image poses" as I wasn't really sure what they were for but I did keep some "arm wobbling" just before it came back.

[Myoti]

Hey, wait a sec, that sprites are not from this game!!
Arabasta background?

And he's actually smoking.

They're probably from the WS game, since I heard the two were similar.

[Caracal]

Actually, you may be right. When I did the second version gif, I noticed a few colour differences between the two different sprites and there was some slight differences in some of the poses.

Hopefully if another site has "ripped" some sprites, I might be able to get my hands on other characters. However like I said before, please don't "hold your breath". Plus I'd have to wait a week for the second site to update.

And Myoti, thanks for adding in my name in your sig.

[Nyssane]

I have sprites of the other characters up to Arlong Park, but they're not animated. I only really played it to cap Mohji sprites, but I capped the rest of them as I went along.

[taboo]

@Caracal:

However this site also has a Luffy sheet with a few different moves (as well as a Helmeppo sheet).

Ha ha, now I want to make a few gifs from the pictures there!:laugh:

[Voodzik]

@Kaos:

Yes MINE!!! That is, if I could figure out how to get it there <_< Somebody help teh newbie?=(

[luffink]

After seeing the sprite sheet of that web (THAT´s the Luffy´s sprite sheet of GB), I can say two things:

• Sorry, Myoti, it seems like there´s no more special moves.
• They got some sprites misssing when Luffy is hanging on that balloons. You can swing pressing right and left to jump higher

[luffink]

I entered that web today, and they have more sprites sheets from the GBA game and a Chopper sprite sheet from the wonderswan game. I´ll try to do a gif with Chopper munching the rumble ball whenever I can…

Quick Questions for this Gif I made

1. is there any easy way to remove certain sprites from a rip sheet I made this gif using an already made sprite sheet and using paint (edit) I took the sprites that I wanted to use from the proper rips.

And one by excrutiating one, took all 16 images and set them up in the above animation using Ulead.

2. How do you get rid of the background so that only the sprite shows up.

3. If possible how do I get the gif. to move out of place so that it goes back and forth across the screen.

4. How can I make my own Rip sheets from GBA games it seems difficult due to fact that I have to capture the proper images from the game in order for it to be used.

[Buuhan1]

I am more of a ripper then animator but I can animate. I used to play a game called Furcadia were you make "worlds" people come to and its made out of pixels so I ripped sprites and landscape from "One Piece Dragon Dream" and made a world. There aren't many One Piece fans on Furcadia but the ones there were really liked it.

You are good at animating cause I know how long even a 5 second gif takes.

Sandai if you use "VisualBoy Advance" half way through my ripping status I found a "next frame previous frame" option which makes things alot more easier, look for it in the toolbar.

[Mr. Zoro]

Just to tell you, you CAN'T do a Gomu gomu shotgun in the American version of the game.

[Sandai Mera]

Thanx but I don't think I did that great

hopefully I can get help with questions 2 & 3

but on that next frame option if I play a game like Warioland 4 & say if I want to make a gif of Wario doing a supercharge how would I go about doing that step by step.

[Buuhan1]

Tools > Next Frame > Then keep hitting Ctrl+N and you'll keep getting a frozen frame one after another each time you press ctrl+n, then to get the game back to normal just File > Pause and the game will start playing real time again.

[Sandai Mera]

I try it out when I get the chance thx.

[samuraizero]

Where Can I Get An Rom For This Game Btw?

[warp]

Dgemu you have to register

[Caracal]

I'm kinda surprised to see this thread has been bumped, so I'll take the time to post some other gifs I made.


I made them a while ago so I have no real comments. I plan to do one of Crocodile and Chopper and possibly Ace if sprites are ripped (someone is working on it but has stopped for the moment).

[Ms. Suave Debonair]

I must say that they are awesome, especially the Zoro one. Nice work.

[Sandai Mera]

How did U make those sprites without any background in them?

[Caracal]

@Bad-Beat:

I must say that they are awesome, especially the Zoro one. Nice work.

Thanks.

@Sandai:

How did U make those sprites without any background in them?

Image Ready has a "Magic Wand". If I click a colour with it (say the lightest shade of red on Luffy's shirt), then it will select that colour on the entire sheet/image. I can therefore delete it. The way I select a sprite is to use the normal select tool (Marquee in Image Ready) and make a box around the sprite I want, then use Magic Wand to de-select the background.

I'll also probably make a new version of the Luffy gif in the future. I've generally gotten better feedback for my Sanji and Zoro gifs than I did my Luffy gifs. Seeing as how Luffy is my favourite character, I'd like to make a new version of the gif so it's as good as the Sanji and Zoro ones. I'd probably use the same moves, though maybe in a different order, add in one or two more, then put in a special finisher (NSS what yet). Course, I need the time to do that.

[Ms. Suave Debonair]

well the Luffy ones are good but the Sanji and Zoro ones seem to have more going on.

[warp]

where did you get the sanji sheet deekdazz.com (or w/e its called got rid of it)

off topic: do you know where to get good spirtes of naruto anywhere i can't find them. Google isnt helping

[Caracal]

For some reason that I'm not 100% sure about, the site Deek and Dazz went down. I have a copy of the Sanji sheet on my computer, so let me know if you want me to forward it to you. I also managed to save all the Naruto sprites the site had. If you're looking for anything in particular, let me know so I can check to see if I have it or not.

[Buuhan1]

I cut the sprites out by going a pixel at a time till I got the full sprite, they Ctrl+C.

[warp]

Yosh! I found the site with deekmans spirtes Naruto sanji and luffy its great hahha. If you go to deekdazz site he posts a comment about hes taking the spirtes down or something. Read the comments ingore the bashing and go to the second page. Link that lists all his sprites hahah yes
