How to use talksprites?

[Juicyousiguy]

I want to use talksprites the same way Ace Attorney Investigations does it. I want an image to appear, animate while talking, and otherwise idle. The images should also be switchable. How do I do that?

Any help would be much appreciated!

I think what you are asking for is a way to show a character portrait instead just the faceset. Am I right? There should be a few scripts for this.
At worst case scenario, you can just display the picture and keep displaying it until next message, too.
As for animating from time to time I'm not so sure...

Would it work with a gif like this?
I know that there is an MZ version of the plugin I want, but thats for MZ and I'm using VX Ace.
