I think it would be good if there was little Summon animations. Like the djinn summons but I would like Judgement, catastrophe, and Nereid most of all. Discuss

    What do you want done with these summon gifs?

    We use standard (but coloured) pips for your rank, so I don't see where we could use these summons.

      Gosh. Sorry, I totally forgot that this was "Suggestions for Site".

      Anyways, I can say short answer, no with a very slight but, or eventually with a "in a long time"

        Actually, that wouldn't be very hard using the newest version of VBA (a gameboy advance emulator which I use to get the graphics out of the GS games). I'll go try it out and post back if I can do it.

          I can do a couple for you, Max. Maybe, if I can get my Visual Boy working. x.x

            How exactly would you do it?

            Start recording at the beginning of the summon and finish at the end then export it and change it to gif?

            That could work.

              Nah, you press the alt and number buttons, until it's just the summon, and you save every frame.

                Piers, that would take forever if you went frame by frame. Now that VBA can run at a steady 100%, you can use its built-in Movie Recording feature. The only problem is that I don't have anywhere to put all of these files. I don't have enough bandwidth for people to start downloading these summons. If anyone knows a place where I can upload videos for free, let me know.

                EDIT: I found a decent place. Here is the Judgement summon. Let me know what you think:

                  Max, I can do some myself (As I'll just use Codebreaker for all summons/djinn).

                  Edit Nevermind, the file size is too big for the length of movie.

                    Just so everyone else knows: Nick and PDM are going to be recording all the summons over the next day or so, and I'll have this page on the site by the end of the weekend.

                    You think that can be converted into a gif? Just up to the point where the ball explodes on the ground

                    EDIT: crapzorz summon lol

                      ^ Heh.

                      All the summons are going to be from start to finish in AVI format with DivX 5.0 encoding. They should be somewhere between 3 and 8 megabytes each.

                        Yeah, they won't be in GIF, although, if it's wanted, I can convert them all into GIFs with Movie Gear.

                        Oh, by the way, Max, I finished all the summons that don't combine two different element types. (Like, two mercury, and one venus.)
