I don't recall any such setting. However, Animator Pro will analyze the flic and determine if it cannot load it into ram fully, so this shouldn't be a problem. The problem with the loading time is something you can't avoid either in Animator Pro or 3D Studio if you don't have enough RAM. If you're using 3DS and the joining is taking more than a couple of seconds, make sure 3DS is not doing any extra legwork like resizing or any other "out of the ordinary" operation when just joining flics. The two flics should be the same size. By the way, anything over 640×480 will kill just about any computer, so reduce the flic resolution whenever possible. Jeremy
