Does anyone know how to rip GBA sprites? I can't seem to find any RHR sprites online besides a few of Rayman. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Seems that the general idea is:
-1.Get the ROM + the Emulator (Visual Advance for example)
-2.Start the game > Check that there isn't any filter probably in Options
>Go to Tools >View Layers >Eliminate the background (BG3 Seems to be the one) so only black surrounds the character
>Go to file, and Start Recording >Move the character until you think it did all the animations (Including attacks,pain states, death animation, jumps...)
>Then Stop Recording and save it
>Open the video in Photoshop or any other pc app that can
>Advance the video frame by frame and proceed to screenshot one by one while you paste them somewhere else (In a sheet and ordered) >Save >Done
Note: Problems that I ran into when trying: .AVI (This video format can give problems like the footage being blurry you might need a program to fix it or find an alternative)
Some tutorials I found:

Well, that sounds tedious!
I guess it's not exactly "ripping", more "manually copying with the help of an emulator". It's way more work though I guess

Honestly I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble for low quality r3 models
I thinking about deleting this thread

Well, you can't delete threads, that's up to the mod team!
There's no point in deleting it, there is useful information here, even if only as a deterrent from trying to do something tedious

You're welcome to try, but the most you'll get is something about not having permission
