Ellison – Have VistaPro output to PCX rather than VANIM. Then the PCX files
can be converted using CONVERT.EXE (using Animator, not AAPro) (each one
has to be done manually as macros are not supported {Booo!}). Once they are
GIF files, most of them can be loaded as frames of a flic using a macro or
manually (if you like mindless repetition). If you've done this and it
doesn't work, that's mysterious. I have done it without a hitch on a number
of occasions. The pallette I end up with usually has to be tweaked pretty
big time to get something other than earth tones in it, but it works. Are
you sure you have the resoplution set correctly in VistaPro? AA's convert
only deals with 320×200 (I think) which is the VistaPro resolution I have
set. Hope that helps a bit……
