Why are the framerates and animation on the animated gifs so choppy and really bad sometimes?
It’s important to note that they are, indeed, animated gifs….not full motion video. The way I make them, basically I just keep hitting the “Take Screenshot” hotkey as many times as I can while playing the game in an emulator. I then take those frames, put them together and bang, there’s an animated gif. Doing it this way makes the game pause for a very small part of a second, thus skipping that small amount of time before I can get the next screenshot taken….this is why some game’s gifs look much choppier than others, and always much worse than they look on a TV. I basically just do them to give people a rough idea of how the game looks in motion.
