...Again, for a given definition of "rips". These were taken with my capture card. Unfortunately, PLvsAA doesn't have a full gallery function, so I'm catching these as I go.

I've included stills from the animated scenes as well, since they're so much more frequent than in DD, as well as a few of the puzzle stills. Open to suggestions as to how to put these up on the site (just special 'stills', like all the other games? Stills and puzzle stills? Stills, puzzle stills, and bits of animated scenes?)

Since there's still a lot to go in this replay of mine, and I'm fairly busy with the semester, this will be updated slowly and added to C-R at an unknown point.

It goes without saying, but spoilers!

Spoiler: Prologue one stills

Spoiler: Prologue two profiles

Spoiler: Prologue two evidence

Spoiler: Prologue two stills

Spoiler: Chapter one stills

Spoiler: Chapter two profiles

Spoiler: Chapter two evidence

Spoiler: Chapter two stills

I'm also trying (with varied success) to get clean shots of character poses, since we can't exactly rip animations anymore. Is a 'pose gallery' for each character something people would be interested in seeing in lieu of an Animations page? It would be something like this:

Spoiler: Zacharias poses (no spoilers)

Wow, these are really great, thanks!

I'd suggest that when you click on the PLVsPW icon, you are shown 3 sub-sections of stills, animation, and puzzle stills.

Also, I know this is a noob question and all, but would it be possible to take all the animations and make them gifs?

Ostensibly, it'd be possible, but a few issues:

-No way of removing backgrounds means a higher filesize and a lower overall GIF quality. Remember that GIFs are limited to 256 colors; when some of those are taken up by the background, the actual animation is going to look worse. (Not to mention that the actual animations aren't even limited to 256 colors, meaning there'd be loss there even if we could somehow mask out the background.)
--In the interest of all avenues: animated PNGs are a thing. But that'd be an even more titanic filesize.
-As with stills, some animations will have the textbox overlaid on them.
-There's some technical issues with recording the video for making animations. If I want a lossless video, that takes up tons of hard drive space and is tough to work with. If I take a lossy video, that compounds the aforementioned quality issues.

I forget, do you have a capture card, or a fancy camera set-up?

Capture card (though to be honest it's been a little fussy lately - hope it's not wearing out on me!)

I am pleased to see these rips. Since some of these animations, like with Zach here, are reused several times throughout the game, perhaps someone who also has a capture card could lend a hand with capturing alternate shots?

Sorry I can't contribute anything.

For fun, an example of what an animation might look like as APNG and GIF:

...Why did I just think of a Stepmania competition? XD

As expected, the APNG looks better than the GIF, but dang, that file size. IMO, the GIF doesn't look too shabby either, but those X's in the background do stand out a bit. If conserving space is that much a problem, the GIF should be fine, but I'd recommend the APNG otherwise.

Where is the de-synching coming from?

GIFs have less precision with frame timings. The APNG is at 60FPS; the GIF is at slightly slower than that.

Here's another, spoiler comparison showing the first breakdown:

You can remove the backgrounds fairly quickly by:
-increasing dpi to 300
-using 'quick select' tool in Photoshop (set quick select to about 14px)
-changing dpi back to 72

this took a minute:

another couple of minutes, and I could have cleaned it better (so that you can't see the background under his armpit.) So it is possible, but takes a little work.

Edit: but yes, unfortunately, changing it to 256 colors makes it look quite ugly :sadshoe:

I just started Chapter 8, and through the power of Miiverse, have snagged some profile images (I won't be able to get too much at once... I don't want to flood Miiverse with random screens of the Court Record.)

It's appreciated, but... I actually have the profiles/most of the evidence from the last trial already, I just haven't uploaded them yet because I still need to get the stills. :oops:

So don't worry too much about it.

(Miiverse also saves images as JPEGs, if I'm not mistaken, which hurts the quality a bit.)

That said, one thing that would be nice to get a screencap of is the diagram of chapter 8's crime scene, since that has actual localized writing on it.

Ah, just trying to help! :basil:

And Yeah, I was worried the quality'd drop using miiverse, but the screenshots are still relatively clear! There's the tower diagram that's also got localised text on it, if you want that capped as well.
